Early life

Career

Regarding her professional life, Catherine is best known as the co-founder of LuxeLiner, a mobile boutique she founded with four other friends: Jennifer Clark, Charlotte Jones Anderson, Alyson Griffith, and Wendy Poston.

The idea behind LuxeLiner was that they would sell quality clothes, accessories and jewelry on the go – it was practically a boutique store on wheels. They would make their appearance in a black truck at various popular locations where they could attract a big crowd with even bigger pockets. The company was founded in 2012, in Dallas, although unfortunately it doesn’t seem that they’ve had much success, and their Twitter presence has been non-existent since 2014.

Previous marriage

Catherine changed her name to Mooty after marrying Jerry Mooty, a lawyer and co-founder of the law firm McCathern Mooty, LLP; he’s the nephew of Dallas Cowboys owner, Jerry Jones. Although she hasn’t disclosed the date of her first wedding, based on her children’s age we can speculate that her first marriage lasted for at least 10 years before their divorce in 2013.

Catherine had two sons with Jerry Mooty – Luke born in the late ‘90s, while Val recently celebrated his 21st birthday. After the divorce they agreed to shared custody.
