Katie is portrayed by Michele Specht in the VH1 television comedy series I Hate My 30s. She is roommates with Kyle and seems to love him platonically, though she can also become quite obsessive. She actually followed Kyle around when he was looking for an apartment to live in, and insists it was just a coincidence. She shows her strong jealous side when Mandy asks Kyle to be her date during a wedding, as Katie then starts stalking them too. Despite all this, Kyle still loves her, but just as a sisterly figure.
