As MTV News reported back in summer 2001, Kortney Wilson, who was then going by the name Kortney Kayle, nabbed a small role playing herself on ABC's long-running soap opera, One Life to Live. When questioned by the National Post about how she ended up on the show, the Masters of Flip star shrugged, saying, "I always liked to act. It definitely didn't feed my soul like music but it did feed the bank account."
As she explained, it made sense, money-wise, for the couple. "Music was always where it was at for us, even though it didn't pay the bills like TV did. Realistically it became too hard [to tour] and we wanted to be home with our kids and TV was another outlet for us," Kortney revealed. Thankfully, the then-couple soon found another shared passion in the form of house flipping. However, reality TV came calling long before HGTV did, with their first show, Meet the Wilsons, debuting in 2009. Luckily, Kortney was already comfortable in front of the camera.
