Quick-witted and razor-sharp, Kitty is a right-wing media personality who heads back to LA after witnessing the atrocities of 9/11.
Estranged from mother Nora, following her involvement in Justin's decision to join the army, Kitty lands her own TV show back home.
Kitty and Nora are reconciled although her TV show is swiftly axed, but not before she meets the dashing Senator Robert McCallister who she then works for, and later marries.
Spiky and opinionated, Kitty desperately wants to have children. She gets pregnant with Robert's baby but miscarries. More heartache is on the horizon this season...
In an effort to move on after tragedy strikes her life with Robert, Series 5 sees Kitty going back to basics and taking time out. Of course romance ensues, but - as always with Kitty - it soon gets complicated.
Kitty is played by Calista Flockhart
Calista Flockhart shot to fame after her network television debut as quirky Boston lawyer Ally McBeal in David E. Kelley's much-loved series. The role also brought her critical praise in the form of a Golden Globe Award and numerous Emmy nominations.
After five seasons of Ally McBeal, Flockhart returned to her roots on the stage in Neil LaBute's play Bash, and on Broadway in Scott Elliot's production of The Three Sisters, while her film credits include Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Her, A Midsummer Night's Dream (co-starring Kevin Kline, Michelle Pfeiffer and Rupert Everett), The Birdcage, and Telling Lies in America.
