Who is Jim Caviezel's wife? 'POI' fans outraged after actor's 'Braveheart' speech at QAnon rally
'Person of Interest' star Jim Caviezel broke the hearts of a number of his fans after he delivered a speech at a QAnon convention in Las Vegas, Nevada, in which he emulated Mel Gibson's famous battle cry from the movie 'Braveheart'.
During a speech at the For God & Country: Patriot Double Down convention, Caviezel, 53, made reference to the 1995 film which was scattered with QAnon talking points. At times during his speech, Caviezel delivered the famous battle cry William Wallace gave to Scottish soldiers ahead of their crucial battle against the English. The 'Passion of Christ' star said, "We must fight for that authentic freedom and live, my friends. By God, we must live and with the Holy Spirit as your shield and Christ as your sword may you join Saint Michael and all the other angels in defending God and sending Lucifer and his henchmen straight back to hell where they belong."

'He spent far too much time getting whipped by Mel Gibson'
As soon as the clip went viral, fans of CBS' hit drama started to boycott Caviezel as well as his popular show. "Ick. Rescinding my fandom. I kinda liked person of interest first episodes but it got boring," one of them said, while another wrote, "He is now a Person of interest and not in a good way." A third noted, "I cringe very time 'Person of Interest' is trending, because it means Jim Caviezel is somewhere in front of a camera, bleating religious pablum and Q claptrap into a mic, proving once again he spent far too much time getting whipped by Mel Gibson." One more added, "I loved 'Person of Interest' and now I will never watch it again!"
The next remarked, "So the guy who starred in 'Person Of Interest' is about to become a person of interest." Another quipped, "*crosses Person of Interest off re-watch list*" A commenter tweeted, "Person of Interest is trending. I thought it was a great show on CBS. One of its stars, Jim Caviezel, has sadly completely lost his mind. It's really sad to see someone you once cared about spouting provable lies." One more commented, "I really liked Person of Interest. The tech concepts were slightly ahead of their time. I believe he was also in Pay it Forward. He, however, is now full Evangeliban. I would never watch any of his work again." A person reacted with, "Every day I wake up and try to tell you people that Person of Interest should’ve just been about Root and Shaw. You didn’t have to give this man a single line."

Who is Jim Caviezel's wife?
Jim has been married to Kerri Browitt for nearly 23 years after tying the knot in 1996. They met on a blind date which was organized by Jim's sister, Amy. They dated for a few years before getting married on July 20, 1996. The couple has adopted three kids, Lyn Elizabeth, Bo and David, and typically likes to keep their personal life out of the public eye.
Kerri was an English teacher at a high school in Seattle, Washington before she married Jim. It is not clear if she has kept her occupation after marriage. The actor has talked about how his Christian faith makes it hard for him to be naked on screen. “I don’t believe in it. I don’t think it’s right. In my faith, I’m taught that abstinence is important. You’re never gonna see my butt on film unless I’m in the Holocaust, walking around," Jim said in a 2002 interview.
So much so that Caviezel requested that he wear a shirt and that Jennifer Lopez wears a top during a love scene in the film 'Angel Eyes'. “I just said, ‘Look, put a top on her. I’m gonna keep my shorts on, she’s gonna keep hers on. Get the camera and shoot around it.’ And that’s out of devotion, love and respect to my wife," he said. He also refused to strip in a love scene with Ashley Judd in 'High Crimes' saying, "I do love scenes—but not ones with gratuitous sex. I also don’t do gratuitous violence. And it's not just about my wife, although that's important. It's sin, pure and simple. I mean, it's wrong."
