Kattner was born in Texas but credits his Philadelphia upbringing as a musical influence. The city is also where he would later form his band in 2003.
The musician also called other cities home as his parents were in the military, which led to him moving around a lot as a child. He toldOwlAndBear.com, “I was a military brat and I moved every three years, so I’m sure that programmed my brain improperly.”

In December 2020, PEOPLE confirmed that theHustlersactresswelcomed her first child, a daughter, with Kattner. Wu did not announce her pregnancy prior to the birth, and the couple have yet to reveal their daughter’s name publicly.
“Apparently, it happens in a lot of Asian babies, and my boyfriend and I are both Asian,” Wu said. “He actually wrote a song about her blue butt. So, that will be on his next album.”
“It is exponential,” the actress said onLive with Kelly & Markwhen asked about going from one child to two. “It is likegoing from one to 20, I feel like. But it’s been lovely because they’re very sweet with each other and my older kid is a girl and she’s just very naturally nurturing and really excited to be a big sister.”
He’s supportive of Wu
Like Wu, Kattner prefers to keep his relationship off social media; the pair do not have any photos together, nor do they post pictures of their daughter.
The musician made an exception in March 2022 when Wu announcedher memoir,Making A Scene. Sharing the book coveron Instagram, he kept the caption simple, “The lady wrote a book,” and included the link to pre-order copies.
In avideo on Wu’s Instagram account, Kattner can be heard saying, “go for it, it’s rolling,” while she opens up a box of her memoirs. As she stumbles over her words and wants to “start over again,” he encourages her to “just open it” because it’s “real.”
