The two never lived in Hollywood, choosing instead to raise their family in Manhattan. Kline also noted that despite being well-known celebrities, they all like to stay out of the spotlight.

Kline gushed about Cates as a mother and wife as the couple celebrated their 36th wedding anniversary in March.
