Outside His Job, Gavy Friedson Spends Recreational Time with Wife Katie
Outside of his impressive work, Friedson is a devoted husband to his celebrity wife and is always by her side, no matter what. While Friedson maintains a private Instagram page, his wife occasionally offers a sneak peek into their blissful married life.
Pavlich's Instagram account had several pictures of the couple enjoying tropical vacations and exploring the outdoors. Among these photos was one showing the duo smiling as they stood before a magnificent view of mountain peaks at the Cascade Canyon Trail.
The couple has also been enjoying long weekends at an undisclosed beach location, and they relish celebrating special occasions by immersing themselves in nature and adventure.
On their first wedding anniversary, Friedson and his wife went skydiving at Skydive Suffolk. The couple celebrated their fourth anniversary by sharing ten photos, including their wedding day in Grand Canyon, Arizona.
The duo went on an exciting adventure to Croatia for their fifth anniversary. They explored the country's beautiful streets, visited historical tourist spots, and ate in charming diners.

Friedson and his wife not only share a passion for adventure and the great outdoors, but they also have a profound love for animals. Their delightful canine companion, Gadsden, completes the cozy duo and adds extra joy to their lives.
Gadsden is an adventurous dog, just like Friedson and his wife, and occasionally goes on trips with them, like going to the National Mall in Washington. Additionally, Friedson's dog enjoys car rides and being outdoors.
In one photo, Gadsden looked happy posing with his beloved owner in the car, while in another, the couple's furry friend showed off a seemingly blank expression on its face between its happy owners.
