Katherine Heigl Husband

Katherine Heigl Husband, Katherine Heigl proves that she is a true animal lover. After Utah lawmakers proposed an “ag gag” bill that would criminalize filming on factory farm, the former “Grey’s Anatomy” star sent a letter to every member of the Utah Senate on PETA’s behalf in an attempt to persuade them to vote against House Bill (H.B.) 187.

“My husband and I married in Utah, and I’ve been proud to call the state home for the last couple of years,” the 33-year-old wrote. “This bill makes our state’s agricultural community seem desperate to hide illegal and inhumane treatment of animals from the public. As animals cannot defend themselves, the public must maintain its right to document illegal cruel practices in order to alert law enforcement to its existence.”

“In 2008, my friends at PETA went undercover at a major pig farm in Iowa that supplies Hormel and found that workers were beating pigs with metal rods and jabbing clothespins into their eyes; one employee was even caught sexually abusing a pig with a cane. Because of this investigation, six workers were charged with a total of 22 counts of livestock neglect and abuse, and all of them admitted guilt.”
