In 2011, he made his television debut in Gold Rush, which aired on Discovery Channel. He has since appeared on the show in a number of seasons, including Gold Rush: South America (2013), Gold Rush: The Dirt (2013–2014), Gold Rush: Alaska (2011–2020), and Gold Rush: White Water (2018-20).
Fred Hurt: Early Life, Age, Wiki, Parents, Ethnicity
On July 10, 1943, in Minot, North Dakota, in the United States, Fred Hurt was born.
Fred Hurt’s Married Life
Currently, Fred Hurt and Jennifer Sheets are wed. The two lovebirds exchanged nuptials on July 30, 2016.
The two have been together ever since, supporting one another while sharing seasons of Gold Rush together.
Prior to his union with Jennifer, Fred was married twice. His first wife’s identity has not yet been made public, but his second union was with Lorrayne Frances Leier. Sadly, on February 2, 2015, Lorrayne, his second wife, passed away from her sickness.
Children, Relationship With Son
Fred Hurt has three children—two sons and a daughter—from all of his marriages. He has a daughter named Darla Hurt and a son named Dustin Hurt (from his marriage to Lorrayne).
Fred and Dustin, a father-son team, have always collaborated and have appeared in several Gold Rush seasons. But they frequently quarreled with one another. And they each contributed in their own unique manner to the third Gold Rush film. The audience believed that they had argued once again as a result.
Father Fred said in an interview with PopCulture.com on November 8:
“At first he had his mind set to go one place, and my mind was set to go somewhere else. So we split up. It worked out quite well, we had double the chance to get the gold and got to work more places.”
Later, he added a further assertion,
“It doesn’t always go smoothly, and Dustin and I have quite the history of being at each other’s throats. It was the best decision we could have made … and it made for a good season.”
But now that their disagreements have been resolved, the father and son are once more interacting.
