Rachael Keaton is a Criminal Justice major at OSU in her Junior year. Her goal is to be a crime scene investigator like she sees on TV. For the past two years, she has been dating Jesse Simmons. She loves Jesse but when she learned that she was pregnant back in November (2010) she decided that she needed to distance herself from him so she could decide if she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him. She wanted to think things through before telling Jesse and having him pressuring her to marry him out of some sense of obligation.

Rachael is the younger sister of Christie Keaton.
Christopher Keaton is her younger brother.

Her and Jesse’s child, Caroline Lexa Keaton, was born on June 3rd, 2011.
