When it comes to Jan Pol’s personal life, there is no question of leaving his better half of the question. You have already seen her on the show, and she is none other than his wife, Diane Pol.

The veterinary doctor and his wife of a long time have been married for more than 50 years having tied the knot in 1967.

Dr. Pol had met his loving wife in 1961 during their senior year in Mayville High School where Diane was a foreign student. The two even after being married for more than 50 years their love only seems to grow with the time.

The Couple Has 3 Children

Like every married couple, the Pols also have milestones to mark their marriage, 3 to be exact. Yes, we are talking about their children, and many may not know that all three children of Dr. Pol are adopted.

Only his daughter also named Diane was adopted when she was 18 years old. She had been their foster daughter for eight years, and the adoption was finalized in 10 years.

Their other two children; Charles and Kathy were both adopted right at their birth.

We don’t hear a lot from his daughters, Kathy and Diane even during the show.

However, their son Charles Pol is a different story. Even being youngest among his siblings, he was able to steal the show starring as his father’s aid and sidekick in the show at just 5 years old.

He grew up with his dad as his role model and grew up to be an integral part of the show and even became one of the producers for the show in National Geographic Show.

Even though Charles grew up in his father’s footsteps in-charge of the family’s farm animals, his parents were supportive of their son to choose a career of his liking.

Charles also was interested elsewhere, so he graduated from University of Miami in Florida in 2003 and went on to intern for Sydney Pollack.

  1. Watching The Incredible Dr. Pol got me started on re-reading the James Herriot series.
    Did you know that back in the 1930’s that the treatment for milk fever was inflation of the udder with a bicycle pump? Poor cow!

  2. Once I got started watching the Incredible Dr. Pol I was hooked. I don’t miss many sessions. Love both him and most of their staff. Dr Brenda, Dr. Emily and a new one on as I type. Dr. Sandra. As well as Charles and Dr Pol’s wife, Diane. I cannot believe the amount of cows that have to have there cows be helped in deliverying their baby calves.
