Meet Amy Rorke, Life Below Zero Star Kate Rorke-Bassich Daughter
Before Kate Rorke-Bassich met her ex-husband Andy Bassich she already had one daughter named Amy Rorke. The Life Below Zero is very close to her daughter and has posted about her on her Facebook several times.

On Amy’s birthday in January 2018, she wished her daughter, “For my Baby Girl, Amy. Then and Now. My daughter and best friend. Happy Birthday my lovely.”
On Amy’s 44th birthday, Kate wished her daughter, “My beautiful baby girl turns 44 today. Looking back it feels like yesterday.”

Kate Rorke-Bassich joined the castaways for Life Below Zero in 2013 but left the show after 43 episodes in 2015. During Season 10 Kate ended her marriage with her husband Andy Bassich, and also made her last appearance on National Geographic’s popular show on the episode “Out of Control.”
Although Kate herself didn’t clarify why she left the show, it is believed that her marriage with Andy has everything to do with her departure from the show. In August 2017, Kate posted a throwback and posted about her ex-husband writing, “Little did I know that a few days after this photo was taken I would meet a sociopath who would change my life ….not for the good.”
Kate was married to Andy Bassich who is not originally from Alaska. In the year 2003, she met Andy Bassich. As part of a group of visitors, Kate was traveling to Dawson City. In the same group, she met Andy. They had several dates, fell in love, lived in the same city, and eventually got married.
Andy and Kate made their separation official in 2015. The divorce was finalized and Kate moved out a year later, which put an end to her appearances on the Nat Geo series. Kate Rorke-Bassich is now residing in Carbonear, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, and is living her life.
