Holly McKimmel

Holly Jane McKimmel (née Walker) is the wife of Jordan McKimmel and the sister of Cathy Walker. She and Jordan have an infant daughter, Anna McKimmel. Holly cares for Jordan very much, but their marriage becomes increasingly strained due to his unexplained absences and bizarre behavior. She is a main character in the HOOT Original crime drama series Broken Down Hard.

When Jordan reveals his past in the Marine Corps, she becomes a major source of comfort and support to him as he proves to be more emotionally fragile than he lets on. At Holly's behest, Jordan begins to receive therapy for his recent panic attacks. Despite having a rough patch in their relationship, their marriage becomes loving again when Jordan begins making progress in therapy and she becomes stable enough to care emotionally for her family members.

After Jordan's arrest, she believes her husband and maintains his innocence to the press. During his trial, she becomes increasingly more suspicious of Jordan because there are no other suspects. In addition, she is disturbed by Jordan's behavior and his lack of interest in finding out who supposedly framed him. After learning of the DNA evidence, Holly finally betrays Jordan by teaming up with Sheriff Townsend to force a confession out of him. Despite succeeding, Holly claims to Jordan that she does not want a divorce and, despite not wanting to, still loves him. She is later threatened with death by a Stefan Alexander if she in any way reveals his relationship to Jordan.
