Kristin Wollett has been a part of the Great American Family for over a year now as one of the stars of the first Great American Original series “County Rescue.” But you will also see her in the new Great American Christmas film “Christmas Wreaths and Ribbons.”

In the film, Wollett plays a wreathmaker named Rebecca who breaks her arm during the busy Christmas season. When her neighbor, Jason (played by Casey Elliot), steps in to help at her store – the duo develop an unexpected friendship that has the potential to lead to something more.

With “Christmas Wreaths and Ribbons” streaming on Great American Pure Flix beginning November 15, and season 2 of “County Rescue” on the way, now is the perfect time to learn more of about this multi-talented actress!

Behind the Scenes

Wollett often says that her main goal in life is to make people laugh, which is probably why she has so much fun behind the scenes of her films and shows.

From having  Crumbl cookie taste tests on set of “County Rescue” to telling dad jokes with her “Christmas Wreaths and Ribbons” co-star Casey Elliot, keeping a straight face isn’t exactly Wollett’s specialty, but that’s part of what makes her so fun to watch!

Family Life

Wollett and her husband, Justin, have been married for 13 years, and are the parents of five beautiful children, all under the age of 10. The family currently lives in Florida, which is perfect considering the fact that the actress “hates being cold.”

The busy mom credits her husband with making it possible for her to balance motherhood and family life with her work.

“People ask me all the time… how in the world do you have 5 kids and still pursue your dreams?” she wrote in a September Instagram post. “And there’s a very simple answer. His name is Justin… the man who stands beside me, who loves me unconditionally, who encourages me to have faith when I don’t, and who makes reeeeeeally cute babies.”
