They have only been trying to conceive for the past 6 months, but because of Karen's age they are seeking fertility assistance now. Kevin Klaus has two children from a previous marriage.

Kevin recently saw a physician for erectile dysfunction and the physician noted the presence of varicoceles on his testicles during his last physical examination.
