About Kenzie
Kenzie Dalton was born on 4 March 1988. She lives in Wilmington, North Carolina, with his parents, 2 sisters and 1 brother. She worked as a model and as an extra on the CW show One Tree Hill. In 2006 She graduated at John T. Hoggard High School and currently she’s attending college. She enjoys art, cheer and track and music.


About Chad
Chad Michael Murray was born and raised in Buffalo, New York. When he was 10 his mum left the family so his dad raised him and his 4 brothers and 1 sister. At age fifteen, he had his small intestine removed. While he was in the hospital, a nurse encouraged him to pursue a modeling career. In 1999, after graduating, Chad headed for Hollywood where he supported himself modeling for such clients as Sketchers, Tommy Hilfiger and Gucci while looking for a break. Soon after he arrived, Chad appeared in several guest-starring television roles on shows like Gilmore Girls and Dawson’s Creek. Since 2003, he is the lead actor on the CW show One Tree Hill. On the big screen, he starred on movies like Freaky Friday, A Cinderella Story, House of Wax, and the recent Home of the brave. Currently living in Los Angeles and Wilmington, Chad loves football, is an anti-drug role model for kids and is active in charities for children and teens.


Chad&Kenzie: the story so far
Their story begins in December of 2005. A quiet relationship began on the set of One Tree Hill in Wilmington, North Carolina. While rumors soon spread like wildfire, it wasn’t until April of 2006 that Chad and Kenzie went public with their relationship at the OTH Benefit Basketball Game. The next day, People.com began reporting that Chad and Kenzie were in fact engaged. Shortly after, the two made an appearance at the North Carolina Azalea Festival, in which Kenzie was a participant. Towards the end of May, Chad accompanied Kenzie to the So You Want To Be A Model Contest in Florida, where he cheered her on and provided his support. Late August found Chad and Kenzie in California for the Teen Choice Awards. Recently, Kenzie provided her support for Chad when the two attended the premiere of his new movie “Home of the Brave”.

No matter where Chad and Kenzie show up, East Coast or West, the love that these two share is always evident. They have been supportive in whatever endeavor the other has chosen to follow, whether its college or movies.

And we, as CK supporters, will continue to support them. To defend the love that they share. And to show our support for their relationship in whatever way we can.

Best of luck to Chad and Kenzie. May the future bring you happiness, laughter and lots of love.

Reasons why we love Chad&Kenzie
Because he called her his diamond
Because she takes great care of him when he's sick
Because she made him smile again
Because she gets him everyday
Because she gets him and that’s all that matters
Because he's quick to defend their age difference
Because she loves him and not the spotlight
Because he brings her with him everywhere he goes
Because they go camping together
Because they sit out under the stars together
Because he supported her finishing school
Because he takes her to college
Because they have an "innate connection that can’t be explained"
Because he's already got their future all planned out
Because with their smiles they can lighten the world
Because they are possessive
Because she is his and he is hers
Because they're going to have the cutest blond-haired, blue-eyed babies ever!
Because they are crazy for one another
Because he wants to be 80 years old and still be so in love with her
Because they're going to take care of each other for the rest of their lives
Because he lets her wear his hats
Because they remind us what we are looking for in a relationship *love & peace*
Because she is the reason behind his inner peace

Chad quotes on Kenzie
"Imagine you are walking along and you trip over something and you turn around and find that it is a huge diamond. You would pick it up and do everything in your power to take care of that diamond because it might take care of you for the rest of your life"

“There are certain people who put out a very mature sense and are able to handle different things at different points in their life. She is a very smart and motivated human being. I believe in an innate connection that can’t be explained. She gets me - and that’s what’s important”

“you’ve got your girl and you sit back and it’s completely relaxing out under the stars. Night noises are incredibly peaceful”

"I went to Wilmington, North Carolina, and stole the most beautiful thing I could find in it"

"She loves art. She loves different things about film, and she just wanted to see what it was like, so she was cheering on our show for a while. I met her, and she just makes me a better man. That’s all I could ever ask for. She leads by example, which makes me stronger. I’m just surprised"

"We’re just incredibly, intensely happy"


Quotes on Chad&Kenzie
"They are crazy for one another" Kenzie's mother

"That inner peace he’s feeling might have more than a little to do with his new fiancée, 18 year old Kenzie Dalton. Chad was careful not to say too much about her, but he was quick to defend their seven-year age difference" December 2006 Cosmogirl

"He is so committed to Kenzie, he already has their future together planned out - a nice house in a Los Angeles suburb with dogs and kids who he can “encourage to grow” based on his own experience" December 2006 Cosmogirl
