Kevin is different from his brothers in that, for the most part, he stays out of the spotlight. He typically only appears on social media when his mother shares photos of her time with him and his fiancee, Jenn.

It’s important to note that her son, Kevin Pearce, is not the famous snowboarder Kevin Pearce. They are two different people.
