Actress Brooke Shields has been tapped to join the cast of ‘Army Wives’ when the cable drama begins its seventh season on the Lifetime network.

The former child star and model will play Air Force Colonel Katherine ‘Kat’ Young, a character described as “a crack C-17 pilot who can hold her own in the boys club atmosphere of the military.”

Young has a tragic past that will be revealed throughout the season. We’ve also learned that she will clash with Army Lieutenant General Michael Holden (Brian McNamara) during her new assignment with the 23rd Airborne Division at Fort Marshall.

Co-star Kim Delaney’s character Claudia Joy Holden will reportedly be killed off during season 7. Other cast members include Catherine Bell, Sally Pressman, Wendy Davis and Brigid Brannagh.

The new season kicks off on Sunday, March 10 at 9 PM ET/PT.

Shields, 47, is married to television writer Chris Henchy. They have two daughters. Her mother and former manager Teri Shields died in early November at the age of 79 following years of institutional care for dementia.
