Kathy Ireland Launches Commercial Fishing Career

Model-turned-mogul Kathy Ireland is making waves in a new arena — commercial fishing –and she dished to TMZ about the sweet reason for the leap.

Kathy said her husband of 37 years, Dr. Greg Olsen, has been commercial fishing for the last 20 years, and it’s been a wonderful way to experience his passion.

She explained, “Some people golf … I commercial fish.”

For one thing, you have to watch out for sharks in both. But you also have to be adaptable.

She said, “You have to be able to pivot in business, and when you’re heading out to sea and the weather is dynamic, you have to be prepared.”

Kathy shocked us when she revealed she and her husband man their vessel themselves — just the 2 of them! While challenging, it’s apparently not as difficult as some have assumed.

In the spirit of the holidays, Harvey Levin gave Kathy a gift, pitching a new name for her burgeoning business … watch the full video to hear it. Kathy laughed and thanked Harvey for the free idea.
