Jack had a brother named Nick. Jack had a rough childhood because of his abusive, alcoholic father Stanley Pearson, causing them to have a strained relationship. Stanley did not know that Jack was married, so when Jack found out that he and Rebecca were expecting triplets, he went to his father asking for money, citing gambling debts, rather than telling him that he intended to buy a house for his family. When Stanley was in the nursing home dying, he met Rebecca and his granddaughter Kate for the first time. Jack was camping with Kevin and Randall when Rebecca contacted him about his father dying, but Jack refused to see him. Jack was drafted into the Army at age 25 ; he served in the Vietnam War as a mechanic. When Jack took Randall to Washington, D.C. on a college tour to Howard University, he then took Randall to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, and told him about being drafted and how the war affected him ; this may have been the first time that Jack shared about his Vietnam experiences to a member of the Pearson family ( including Rebecca ). After serving in the war, and working as a manual laborer, Jack became a construction foreman. When he wanted to buy the house for his family, he approached his boss and got a raise to $17,000 a year ( equivalent to more than $49,000 in 2016 ), making him the highest paid foreman at the company. He dreamed of opening his own firm, `` Big Three Homes '', but put his dreams on hold in order to provide a steady income for his children by getting a desk job. Two of the triplets ( the third triplet was stillborn ) and Randall ( who was left at a fire station ) were all born on Jack 's 36th birthday. Jack always wanted to find out who Randall 's biological father was, and never knew that Rebecca had found him. Jack struggled with alcoholism while the children were young, but he stopped drinking to focus more on his family. However, he relapsed into alcoholism when he had a drink after a fight due to a disagreement with his wife, who wanted to go on tour with a band with a member she 'd once dated. His drinking continued for some time until he decided to deal with the problem, at first by boxing, and then by attending AA meetings. His sobriety and AA work continued for at least 6 months. Jack died while his children were in high school, and Kate keeps his ashes with her. The exact cause of Jack 's death has not yet been revealed, but the Pearson house is seen by Rebecca after being burnt in a fire. Rebecca Pearson Rebecca Pearson née Malone ( born 1950 or 1951 ), portrayed by Mandy Moore, is Jack 's wife, and the mother of Kate, Kevin, and Randall. She strives to be a better mother to her children, and has issues with Jack 's alcoholism. She has always known that William is Randall 's father, but kept them apart as she was afraid that he would try to take Randall back. Rebecca always wanted to be a singer, but gave up on her dreams in order to focus on her family. In the mid 1990s, she had a chance to become a singer again by joining a band with her ex-boyfriend. Jack was upset after finding out about their history, which caused a rift between Rebecca and Jack. About 8 years after Jack 's death, Rebecca posted pictures of Tess, her new first grandbaby, on Facebook, then got a message from Jack 's best friend, Miguel Rivas. Rebecca later married Miguel. Randall Pearson Randall Pearson ( born August 31, 1980 ), portrayed by Sterling K. Brown ( current day ), Niles Fitch ( age 15 ), and Lonnie Chavis ( ages 8 -- 10 ), is Jack and Rebecca 's ( adopted ) son, and Kate and Kevin 's brother. On his 36th birthday, he found his biological father, William, and invited him to his northern New Jersey home. Randall worked at selling commodity futures based on weather patterns, and was shown to be successful and affluent. However, after a nervous breakdown and some time off, he felt that his firm did not appreciate or respect him, and quit. On the day that Randall was born, he was dropped off in front of a firehouse by his biological father, William, and then taken to the hospital, where he was adopted by Jack and Rebecca. Jack and Rebecca originally named him Kyle ( the name they had intended for their third child, who was stillborn ). Taking William 's advice, Rebecca decided to give him his own name, naming him after William 's favorite poet, Dudley Randall, although she refused to let William see Randall. This allowed them to honor both their stillborn son 's memory and Randall, rather than essentially replacing one son with the other. At age nine, Randall 's teacher informed Jack and Rebecca that Randall was a gifted child who was not being challenged enough at his current school. They decided to remove him from public school and send him to Hanes Academy. In high school Randall played football, wearing number 36. Randall and Kevin had an estranged relationship and did n't reconnect until they were 36 years old. At some points, Kevin openly despised Randall. At a high school football game, where they played on opposing teams, they got in a fight. However, there were also some moments when they acted like brothers. ( When they were 36, they got in a fight on the street in New York, but Kevin told onlookers they were brothers. ) As an adult, Kevin was hurt that Randall did n't seem to care about his acting career. They began to reconnect when Kevin needed Randall 's advice, but Randall coldly told him he should n't care what he thinks. Eventually, Kevin moved to Randall 's house in New Jersey, but they still had some work to do on building their relationship. He loves Thanksgiving and has his family recreate a specific childhood Thanksgiving every year, including a 3.4 mile hike, watching Police Academy 3 : Back in Training, and imitating a hotel owner known as `` Pilgrim Rick ''. In season 2, Randall wanted to adopt a baby ( to honor his father 's legacy ), but decided ( with Beth 's input ) to foster an older child who may need help. They fostered a 12 - year old girl named Deja, whose mother Shauna was incarcerated. She showed signs of physical abuse, but Randall and Beth started to win her trust and get her to open up. When the charges against Shauna were dropped, Deja went back home with her ( over Randall 's initial objections ). Randall and Beth planned to try fostering again after some time. Kate Pearson Kate Pearson ( born August 31, 1980 ), portrayed by Chrissy Metz ( current day ), Hannah Zeile ( age 15 ), and Mackenzie Hancsicsak ( ages 8 -- 10 ), is Jack and Rebecca 's daughter, and Kevin and Randall 's sister. Kate is obese and has struggled with issues of self - esteem her entire life, which she greatly attributes to her strained relationship with her mother and the death of her father. Her relationship with her mother led to depression, for which she later took Prozac. She discontinued taking this drug due to the side effect of weight gain. Kate lives in Los Angeles and was her brother, Kevin 's, personal assistant. When Kevin decided to move to New York, he fired her in order to allow her to build her own life, apart from him. She is an ardent Pittsburgh Steelers fan and has a routine where she watches the games with her dad 's ashes. At nine years old, she had her appendix removed on Christmas Eve. Kate decided to join a weight - loss support group, where she met Toby. Despite saying that she was not going to get involved with a fat person, she fell for Toby. When Toby decided to not continue with his diet, Kate broke up with him and decided to go to Randall 's for Thanksgiving. During a turbulent plane ride to New Jersey, Kate had an epiphany and decided to have gastric bypass surgery. After consulting with a doctor, she instead decided to enter a fat camp to attempt to lose the weight without surgery. When Toby surprised Kate by showing up at Randall 's house for Christmas, he told her that he can live without pizza and junk food, but that he can not live without her. Toby collapsed from a heart attack, and was taken to the hospital. After Toby 's heart surgery, Kate and Toby decided to get engaged. Kate later found out she was pregnant. Kate and Toby announced their pregnancy to Kevin, and planned to get married at city hall, but then considered a big wedding. But Kate lost the baby in a miscarriage. Despite some struggle in their relationship after the miscarriage, Toby eventually came through for Kate. Kate had said that her father 's death was her fault ( although this claim has not been clarified or explained ). Kevin Pearson Kevin Pearson ( born August 31, 1980 ), portrayed by Justin Hartley ( current day ), Logan Shroyer ( age 15 ), and Parker Bates ( ages 8 -- 10 ), is Jack and Rebecca 's son, and Kate and Randall 's brother. Shortly before his tenth birthday, Kevin became attracted to Kate 's best friend, Sophie, whom he married when they were older. Kevin and Sophie decided that she would stay in New York and he would move to California to pursue acting, believing that their marriage could handle the distance. Kevin and Sophie later divorced, 12 years prior to season 1, due to the distance and Kevin cheating on her. Kevin has always struggled with worrying about what people think of him, which caused him to have a strained relationship with Randall as they grew up. Kevin was visibly envious of Randall, who had always excelled in everything and received more attention from their parents, but he did n't realize that Randall has longed for the same attention from him. In high school he played football, as a quarterback, wearing number twelve one year and number one the next ( His number one jersey was on display with Kevin 's trophies when he visited the high school at age 37, for an alumni celebration. ) His goal of a football career ended when his knee was injured from a tackle during a game. Kevin was an actor in Los Angeles, starring as the lead on a long - running sitcom called The Manny, a sitcom in the tradition of Who 's the Boss and The Nanny. He abruptly quit that show on his 36th birthday, criticizing the script quality, the producer 's reluctance to add nuance to the show, and the audience. After quitting his job, Kevin decided to move to New York to pursue a career as a serious stage actor on Broadway. Upon arriving in New York, he got hired as the lead role, David, in Back of an Egg, opposite a cynical actress named Olivia Maine ( who thought Kevin did not have the ability, but that Kevin was hired because his being `` The Manny '' would sell tickets ). When Kevin had trouble connecting with the emotions needed for his role, he began spending time with Olivia, who tried to get him to connect with his feelings. Kevin and Olivia briefly dated, but broke up after she brought her ex-boyfriend to the Pearson family cabin. After his breakup with Olivia, Kevin began dating the writer of the play, Sloane Sandburg, attending Hanukkah with her family and inviting her to the Christmas Eve party at Randall 's house. Sloane took over as the lead of the play when Olivia disappeared and the play was at risk. Kevin decided to self - fund the performance, in order to save it. After Kevin and Sloane broke up, he reconnected with Sophie and began a relationship with her again. Director Ron Howard saw Kevin 's play and had him cast in a war movie. Kevin had trouble with his lines when he could not focus after, when Kate ( visiting the set ) talked with costar Sylvester Stallone about her dad, Stallone talked to Kevin about his dad. Kevin also reinjured his knee ( that was injured from football ) during an explosion on the set. As a result of the injury, Kevin became addicted to pain medication and alcohol, and allowed his relationship with Sophie to deteriorate. One day after a brief visit with Randall, Kevin was speeding down a road, unaware that Tess was hiding in the back seat ; Kevin was pulled over and charged with DUI, and Randall and Beth became angry with Kevin for endangering Tess. Beth Pearson Beth Pearson, portrayed by Susan Kelechi Watson, is Randall 's wife, whom he met in college and later married, circa 1999. The couple has two daughters, Annie and Tess. Their marriage is based on honesty where they make an effort not to have secrets from one another. William revealed to Beth that he had met and communicated with Rebecca. This caused Beth to give Rebecca an ultimatum : to either tell Randall or she would. Growing up, Beth lived in a three - bedroom house with 14 other people. After Randall quit his job, Beth took a job so Randall could be a stay - at - home dad. Toby Damon Toby Damon, portrayed by Chris Sullivan. is Kate 's fiancé. Toby was born in Palm Springs, California. Toby began dating Kate after they met at a weight - loss support group. Toby is confident with his own body although obese, and encourages Kate to have better self - esteem. He was previously married to a woman whom Kate views as beautiful and successful, but who treated him badly. Toby gained 90 pounds in the first year after his divorce. Refusing to take Kate 's hesitance about the relationship lightly, Toby has continually come up with sweet gestures to win her over. In the beginning, he felt that he had to compete with Kevin for Kate 's attention. Despite breaking his weight - loss goals, Toby decided dieting was not for him and went off his diet, resulting in Kate breaking up with him. He surprised Kate by showing up at Randall 's house for Christmas Eve, stating that he could live without pizza and junk food, but that he could not live without her. On Christmas Eve, Toby collapsed and ended up in the hospital with an arrhythmia. After Toby 's heart surgery, he and Kate decided to get engaged. William Hill William H. `` Shakespeare '' Hill ( died 2017 ), portrayed by Ron Cephas Jones ( recent days ) and Jermel Nakia ( as a young adult ), was Randall 's biological father. William was a recovering drug addict who was suffering from terminal stage - four stomach cancer in the present. He grew up in Memphis, and after his mother moved to Pittsburgh he stayed in Memphis to play in his cousin Ricky 's band, where he played piano, wrote, and sang. William left the band, with the intention of returning, to care for his dying mother. However, after meeting Randall 's mother and becoming a drug addict, he never returned. He got clean after he thought he saw a monkey on the streets, realizing that nothing good comes from a person being on the street at 3 : 30 am. ( He also stayed clean for years after being told by a judge, who offered to help him after his first conviction, to picture the judge 's face when he was tempted to do the wrong thing. ) William returned to Philadelphia to attend a Narcotics Anonymous meeting, hoping to find and reconnect with his former lover Jessie After leaving Randall at the firehouse, he waited outside the hospital to see him being taken home by Jack and Rebecca. Rebecca realized that William was Randall 's father, after seeing him getting onto the bus as she left the hospital. She eventually tracked him down, a secret she kept from everyone, including Randall and Jack. William always wanted to have a relationship with his child, but promised Rebecca he would stay away for Randall 's benefit. He accidentally revealed this secret to Beth one night when they got high together, and Randall accidentally found out himself, when he found a letter and photo in William 's apartment, from Rebecca, while looking for cassette tapes. ( William also told Randall about the second time William saw Rebecca ; he took a cab to follow her home, hoping he could be in Randall 's life, but when he was outside the house, he thought better of it. ) William was bisexual, previously having a relationship with a man, Jessie, with whom he never officially broke up. Jessie assumed William had died when he vanished one night ( the night William moved in with Randall 's family ). William eventually succumbed to his cancer during a road trip back to Memphis with Randall. Prior to his death he left a letter to Randall 's girls, asking them to plan a fun memorial for him. He also sent Beth a postcard from Memphis, saying goodbye and calling her the daughter he never had. Miguel Rivas Miguel Rivas, portrayed by Jon Huertas, was Jack 's best friend and is Rebecca 's second husband. Miguel was originally married to Shelly, before they divorced. While it originally seemed that his marriage to Rebecca happened shortly after Jack 's death, in season 2 it is clarified that the two did not get together until at least eight years after Jack 's passing. Miguel was initially disliked by Kevin, until Miguel told Kevin how much he is like his father. Sophie Sophie, portrayed by Alexandra Breckenridge ( modern day ), Amanda Leighton ( age 15 ), and Sophia Coto ( age 10 ), was Kate 's childhood best friend and Kevin 's childhood love and his ex-wife. Kevin moved to New York and reconciled with her, after his relationships with Olivia and Sloane ended. Their relationship initially survived the distance when Kevin was in his movie in L.A., but Kevin broke up with Sophie, admitting that his painkiller and alcohol addictions were out of control and he could n't be the man that he wanted to be for her. Tess Pearson Tess Pearson, portrayed by Eris Baker, is Randall and Beth 's older daughter. She was promoted to series regular in season two. She was named after the Tessana ceiling fan Randall was going to purchase when hearing about Beth going into labor. Although not noticed acting out previously, she hid in her uncle Kevin 's car ( claiming she hates it at her house ), when he was pulled over for speeding and charged with DUI. Annie Pearson Annie Pearson, portrayed by Faithe Herman, is Randall and Beth 's younger daughter. She was also promoted to series regular in season two. On William 's first night at Randall 's family 's house, when William wanted to step out, Annie convinced William that he might be happy if he stayed.
