Amanda Moye Brown Biography
Her husband, Wes Brown, is a Hallmark Movie Channel regular with a long list of credits that includes Love’s Everlasting Courage and Check Inn to Christmas, among others. Given the Hallmark channel’s primary focus on family movies, the interest in one of its stars’ family life is understandable. Amanda Moye Brown has spent almost her entire career in the entertainment industry, but not in the same capacity as her more visible husband Wes Brown. Amanda works behind the scenes in production companies that create some of the projects we see on television.
Amanda Moye Brown and Wes Brown have been friends for a long time. It all started in her twenties when she moved to Los Angeles from her native Florida in search of greener pastures. Amanda stated that she met Wes not long after moving to the big city. They made their first red carpet appearance in 2006 at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, California, for the premiere of We Are Marshall, a historical biopic about a deadly plane crash in 1970 that killed 75 people.
Amanda Moye Brown’s Married Life
The couple obviously prefers to keep their love life private, but photos on Wes Brown’s Instagram show that they are in a happy marriage. They married on May 2, 2008, after years of dating. Their wedding took place in Boston Rouge, Louisiana.
The public first saw photos of their wedding when Wes Brown, the more socially visible of the two, shared moments from their big day on Instagram. Amanda wore a traditional white gown for her big day, which was complemented by a large bouquet of white flowers, while her husband Wes wore a classic tuxedo. Though the rest of the world was not informed about the wedding, it did not appear to be an intimate affair, as the photos Wes posted showed the presence of a crowd.
Wes Brown summarized their first decade of marriage in a few words in the post commemorating their ten years of marriage, saying that they’ve relocated a few times, made a lot of friends, and had a thousand laughs. In the final sentence, he joked that they hadn’t argued, before clarifying with “ok, that’s a lie.”
Amanda Moye Brown is occasionally celebrated on social media by her husband. He never fails to pay tribute to her on their anniversary and on Mother’s Day.
Amanda Moye Brown’s Profession
Amanda Moye Brown is not your typical celebrity spouse in that she does not simply sit back and enjoy her husband’s wealth but also has a successful career of her own. She identifies as a Creative Entertainment Professional. She is currently employed in the music department of Disney Television Animation, a position she has held since July 2018. Amanda’s paycheck is certainly more consistent than her actor-husband’s, but that does not imply that Wes Brown is underpaid. Brown could earn around $50,000 per year as a Disney employee, according to Bio Gossip. Considering her and her husband’s salaries, Amanda and her husband are pretty comfortable, and it’s no surprise that they occasionally splurge on vacation trips together.
Amanda Moye Brown has been in the entertainment business since 1999. She began her career as a management representative at Wright Entertainment Group. She then worked as the associate studio manager at Glen Ballard, Aerowave. She joined Lance Bass Productions in 2004 as a production executive, a position she held for two years before accepting the biggest job of her career in 2006. As the executive assistant to the Group’s Senior Vice President, it was her first Disney ABC job. Brown has clearly done well in that role, as she has risen through the ranks at the media behemoth. She worked as a coordinator for Disney Junior before joining the animation arm’s music department.
Amanda Moye Brown has a selfless cause that is close to her heart, in addition to what appears to be a strong work ethic. Brown, a lifelong empath, believes that the world needs more empathy; she wishes for a world in which humans love each other for no reason other than “we are all the same at our core.” This isn’t wishful thinking for Brown, who is doing her part to make the world a better place by starting a blog called Empath on a War Path, where she educates and encourages people on how and why they can become more attuned to the feelings of others. Her caring nature led her to work as the Foundation and Special Events Coordinator for NSYNC’s Challenge for the Children. She was the Chairman of the Board of Stay At Home Parent for 8 years, retiring in 2018.
Amanda and Wes Brown’s children
Amanda Moye Brown and her husband Wes Brown have one child, a daughter. Merrideth Brown, her name, was born in September 2009.
