Due to some of the roles and unusual style of work, rumors of Catherine Mannig's gay sex arose. The girl had to personally refute all the speculations. She made a statement in an interview and has refrained from commenting on her personal life from that moment.
Childhood and youth
Catherine was born in 1977 in Philadelphia on December 29 in a creative family. The girl's father was a violin maker. Mom performed in productions on Broadway. Kat's cousin is Gwyneth Paltrow.

She made the decision by participating in a school play called "Winnie the Pooh". The performance on the stage so captivated Kat that the girl rewrote the previous script in her own way. Together with friends, the schoolgirl organized amateur performances in the library of her home state.
Among the buddies of the future star, there were much more boys than girls. Thanks to family ties, the girl could easily break onto the stage. However, Kate rejected this path.
She completed her studies in good faith and did not leave school. As a teenager, Kate worked part-time in a pizzeria with a shop. At eighteen, the beauty became a student at the New York American Academy of Dramatic Arts. She also began her modeling career there.
