Meet the Kids of the Fire Country Cast (Including the Son Who’s Already Made His TV Debut!)
The CBS drama premiered in October 2022 and returned for a fourth season in October 2025. The show has already spawned its own spinoff, Sheriff Country, which premiered on Oct. 17, 2025.
Fire Country follows Bode Donovan (Max Thieriot), a young convict who is faced with his past when he returns to his hometown of Edgewater, Calif., after volunteering for the California Conservation Camp Program in an effort to shorten his prison sentence. There, he’s forced to face old friends and fellow inmates, plus his parents, Vince and Sharon Leone (Billy Burke and Diane Farr).
Vince died during season 4’s shocking premiere after being unable to escape a burning memory care unit. Despite his on-screen demise, Burke — who shares daughter Bluesy LaRue Burke with ex-wife Pollyanna Rose — has learned a lot about parenting from his character.
“The most honorable or noble characteristics of Vince’s that I probably personally might struggle with, are the ones,” he told Nerds & Beyond in October 2024. “He’s got that sort of innate, undying protector guy in him, which I didn’t grow up with and now have only really developed as a father.”
From Thieriot’s two little ones to Farr’s three children, here’s everything to know about the kids of the Fire Country cast.
Max Thieriot’s 2 sons
Thieriot and his wife, Lexi Murphy, are parents to two children: sons Beaux and Maximus.
After meeting as teenagers in 2005 on separate family vacations in the Caribbean, the couple got engaged in 2012 at the same place where they first met. They got married the following year in June 2013 at a ceremony in Lake Tahoe, Calif.
Their older son, Beaux, was born Dec. 7, 2015. They welcomed their younger son, Maximus, in January 2018.
Before Maximus was born, Thieriot expressed excitement at the prospect of their growing family, writing on Instagram in January 2018, “So much to be thankful for and look forward to this year but these 2 (soon to be 3) are at the top of that list for me.”
Over the years, Thieriot has shared plenty of memories with his sons, including bringing his older son Beaux on the set of Fire Country in October 2022 — a moment he called “pretty special” on Instagram.
Kevin Alejandro’s son
Kevin Alejandro, who portrays Captain Manny Perez, and his wife, Leslie de Jesus Alejandro, are parents to one child: son Kaden. The couple got married in May 2004 and welcomed Kaden on Feb. 22, 2008.
Over the years, Kevin and Leslie have shared glimpses of their son on social media, including a sweet family photo in December 2024 featuring the family of three and their dog, Romeo. Just a month prior, they celebrated a major milestone when Kaden began to drive, per Kevin’s Instagram.
Kaden has already started to follow in the footsteps of his parents. Kaden starred in a short written and directed by his father called The Talk, which was selected for several film festivals in 2019. In January 2020, Kevin posted a photo of Kaden on-set with Nathan Fillion in what he called his son’s “first network television acting gig” on an episode of The Rookie.
The actor added, “I couldn’t [be] more proud and happy that his first experience was with wonderful people.”
Diane Farr’s 3 children
In real life, Farr and her ex-husband, Seung Yong Chung, are parents to three children: son Beckett Mancuso and twin daughters Sawyer Lucia and Coco Trinity. The former couple welcomed Beckett on March 16, 2007. Less than two years later, twins Sawyer and Coco were born on Aug. 27, 2008.
Beckett graduated from high school in June 2025, as marked by his mom in a celebratory post on Instagram. She called the moment a “big day for my big guy,” adding, “Lots of feelings to witness him finish this first milestone along with his two grandfathers!!”
A month later, Farr shared a touching post on social media, reflecting on Beckett’s “last day of his childhood that we live together” as he headed off to his summer job.
“We will likely live together again, and I welcome it, but this long period from pregnancy to this moment has closed. We marked it with a hike, one of his fave things,” she wrote. “Everyone said it goes fast. Babies. Children. Raising your family. But I had three kids in 16 months and it didn’t feel fast. Ever. Not until right now.”
Sawyer and Coco, who are still in high school, spent a term studying abroad in 2025. In May 2025, Farr said on Instagram that she “couldn’t be prouder” of the twins, adding, “I’m literally amazed by you.”
