BRIEF BIO.
Born to Thomas and Lyla Knox, Gabriel is the eldest of four. Early on, Thomas set his expectations for his son-- he wanted Gabe to become a lawyer, or a doctor, something with prestige. But Gabe was a wild child and had plans of his own. Between fighting and failing grades, he’s kicked out of high school during his sophomore year.
Went to work as a hand on Ward Ranch. Learned a lot about life and becoming a man. Also discovered his love for the rodeo. Spent the next several years living for rodeo nights and neon lights.
Eventually met his future wife, Addison, and proposed once she found out she was pregnant. Became a dad at twenty-seven to their firstborn son, Tyler.
Had a major riding accent at the rodeo, ended up with broken bones and a concussion. Addison basically made him take a step back from ranching and the rodeo. During that time, he got his GED and started working with this uncle, who owned Zodiac Brewery at the time.
At thirty-three, he formally left Ward Ranch and took over the brewery.
After a surprise pregnancy, he becomes a father once again at age thirty-five to twins, Logan and Lochlyn.
Tragedy struck a year ago. After Addison’s car breaks down at Logan’s soccer practice, Gabe comes to pick them up. On the way home, a drunk driver struck Gabe’s truck, killing Addison and Logan instantly and critically wounding Gabe. He suffered two lumbar vertebrae fractures and as a result, had to relearn how to walk.
He’s been a recluse for the last year and is still struggling physically and emotionally. Still attends physical therapy and now walks with only a slight limp. Has developed a drinking problem, but is trying hard to be the rock his broken family needs. Being a single dad is tough: Tyler is now fifteen and going through a rebellious phase, meanwhile seven year old Lochlyn is starting to ask questions that Gabe doesn’t know how to answer.
QUICK FACTS.
Loves karaoke-- he will embarrass the hell out of you. Despite his antics, he’s actually a fairly decent singer and dabbles with guitar & piano when he gets the chance.
Has two pets: a Blue Heeler doggo named Ozzie, and an orange tabby cat named Goose (yes, that’s a Top Gun reference because it’s his fav movie).
Still loves the rodeo and loves to go ride whenever he can.
