Heidi Mueller

Heidi originally went to the try-outs for The Bachelor, with her older sister Karla (Barela) there for support. She didn't get that role, but NBC found the family intriguing and told them about the Who Wants to Marry My Dad? show. Heidi, a 'hopeless romantic', was thrilled when her father agreed.

When Who Wants to Marry My Dad? began, Heidi (at 21) was the youngest of Don Mueller's (then 48) four children. Her older siblings are brothers Chris (then 22) and Joe (then 26), and her older sister, Karla (then 25), was the only one of

… More the four who had been married (married name Barela). They chose Christena Ferran as their father's bride, and if the wedding goes through, the four will gain a teenage step-brother, Joe, and teenage step-sister, Ashleigh.

In December of 2004, Heidi got engaged to actor Matthew Lawrence. The two are set to marry in June of 2006.

Official NBC Press Kit Bio

Newcomer Heidi Mueller plays Kay Bennett, the scheming, manipulative daughter of Sam and Grace who will do anything; including being a witch's apprentice…to keep Miguel, the man she loves and the father of her baby Maria, with her and away from her cousin Charity.

Heidi is best known as being one of the daughters featured on NBC's 2003 summer hit reality series "Who Wants to Marry My Dad." Heidi was the opinionated daughter of Don who put his trust in his four kids to choose a wife for him. Through outrageous secret tasks, surprising revelations about each player's past and "lie-detector" tests, Heidi and her siblings chose Don's fiancée. Born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, Heidi recently relocated to Los Angeles with her brother Chris, 22 to embark upon her acting career with PASSIONS. She holds a modeling contract with the esteemed Willimena Agency. Though PASSIONS is her first contract television role, Heidi has appeared in numerous television commercials including a recent one for Crest White Strips.

Mueller loves Los Angeles but travels back to Cincinnati quite frequently to visit with her close knit family which also includes her other siblings, Joey and Karla and her mother and step-father, Pam and Jeff Hill. She is currently in her senior year at Liberty University in Virginia and since joining PASSIONS has been able to keep up with her studies via the Internet and external campus classrooms. Heidi expects to graduate with a Bachelors of Science degree in Psychology in June of 2004. Her birthday is January 29.
