I had no dates. I was about 6 feet, well not 6 feet. I was, I'm 5'9" now. By the time I was in seventh grade I was 5'7" and all the guys, the little boys, were coming up to my waist, so I really thought, you know, 'dates' was out of the question. I was just made fun of a lot because I was so tall and voluptuous.

On Married...with Children they made her taller though she was still shorter than 6' Ed O'Neill. He was the tallest actor on that show. 5'7" peak.

Something is wrong Rob..Perlman looks a 5'8 with a 6'hunnam. Begs the question..what's Katey's REAL height then. Alot of actors lie to play up on their on screen persona. Can you even explain what we see in the pic you have above here???

Editor Robkatey can look about 5ft 7, but Perlman a bit further away shrinking him down.

No one should make fun of anyone and nothing should be out of the question.

Just watched the bowling episode, she's got the same shoes as Ed, he's like 5 or 6 inches over her. No more that 174 peak I think but she always wore heels, and is a slender, old fashion kind of lady, appears a lot taller

Only just started S.O.A and she is clearly a tall woman. Eye to eye with almost 6ft Hunnam in heels. So 5ft 8in seems spot on.

She's at most 5-7. Always wears very high heels and still doesn't tower over her 5-9ish husband. Footwear is everything in Hollywood.

I would have thought they would cast a tall woman to make casting her children easier. But according to this site Christina Applegate is 5'5". She looks more than 3 inches shorter than Katey, but Peggy Bundy always had really poofy hair.
I've always had a thing for her even though I am closer to the age of the people who played her children on that show.

Not sure about the 175cm peak but 173cm nowadays is a pretty good shout but I would downgrade her to about 171-172cm barefoot. I wouldn't go lower than 171cm.

Another phony 5ft6/5ft7 "actress" milking her above average height to sell herself as a tall woman in Hollyweird. Nice try, but every single acting and public appearances sport high heels every single time just like the above pic. The calves don't lie, Peggy !

Tall attractive woman hand likes heels making her taller.
Kinda doubt she had that much trouble with dates she's gorgeous.

In an "8 Simple Rules" episode Kaley Cuoco doesn't want her mom (Katey) to know who she's phoning, and warns them "If a tall woman answers, hang up!"
Later the phone rings, Katey answers it, and after a short pause says "I don't know...5' 8" ?"

Beau, it's called reading between the lines. She said that by grade 7 she was 5"7 and then later when she got to an age of dating she was 5"9 ~ but probably felt 6 feet tall. She looks 5"9 or more, especially next to Ally Walker who is listed at 5"10 and looks it. Lovely lady with a beautiful singing voice too!

I'm guessing 5'8, as that's what was claimed in 8 simple rules. She doesn't exactly tower over the 8SP cast, who are mostly fairly short

I met her, along with other cast members of 8 Simple Rules during the first season. She is 5'8". Seems taller, I know, with the hair, and the heels. But she's not.

If you've seen her on 8 Simple Rules, she's almost as tall as John Ritter was. I'dm say 5'9" is about right.

She always seemed tall to me, but she does look several inches shorter than Terry O'Quinn in her appearances on Lost. She is about the same height relative to him that Jennifer Garner was next to him.

in the TV show * simple rules at one point when someone asks her how tall she is; she says "i dunno, around 5'8"."

Editor Rob thanks, yes, could be shrinking, she popped up once in Lost and beside the bald guy she maybe could've been a tad shorter than 5ft 9

5'9" is probably right or maybe even less. She always wore very high heels on Married With Children.
