Meet Katy Allen, the beautiful wife of Kris Allen, who was crowned the American Idol 2009 winner last night. See photos, video and read a biography of Katy below.
Katy Allen, Kris Allen’s wife, is certainly beaming with pride for her husband this morning. The beautiful blonde from Arkansas had been present every week of the American Idol competition to cheer her husband on. She will not be joining Kris on the American Idol tour this summer, but will attend select shows. Kris said, “She’s going to have her own life for the summer. But we’ll be keeping in touch a lot.”
After winning the American Idol title last night, Kris Allen was asked what Katy thought of his win:
“We actually didn’t say anything,” he revealed. “We were just hugging each other and we’re just like, uh, we can be married.We haven’t been able to be married for the last nine months,” he said. “She’s amazing. She’s just the coolest chick in the world. Hopefully, me and my wife will get to spend some more time together.”
As a biography, Katy O’Connell Allen was born on July 9, 1986, so her age is 22. Her parents are Peter and Peggy O’Connell. She is a native of Jacksonville/North Little Rock, Arkansas. Katy attended the University of Arkansas and graduated in 2008 with a degree in Marketing. While at the university, she was a member of Alpha Omicron Pi, SIFE (Students in Free Enterprise) and was named the 2007 Homecoming Queen.
Katy and Kris have been together since their high school days and were married in September 2008 in Maumelle, Arkansas. We will have pictures of their wedding up later today.

You guys are a beautiful couple. I would like to see more of you together, enjoying life as husband and wife. It seems that gorgeous Katy, has been pushed aside for a while…a little sad to hear that she won’t be able to accompany Kris on the Summer Tour. I think the public needs to see more of a ‘husband’ in Kris and the only way to accomplish that is by showing his wife off a little bit.
