Robert Kelker-Kelly (born April 18, 1964) is an American soap opera actor and pilot, best known for playing Bo Brady on the NBC soap opera Days of Our Lives from 1992 to 1995.

He was born to Jonetta Kelker, a nurse, and Robert Kelly, a pathologist. He has 3 sisters. His parents divorced when he was 7 years old, and he moved in with his dad. At 11, when his father remarried, Kelker-Kelly, "jealous" of this new love, moved back with his mother. Three months later his dad died at 42 from a heart attack.
Kelker-Kelly attended Wichita Collegiate School in Wichita, Kansas from 1977–80, where he was active in the theatre and had major roles in several plays, including Rusty in Guys and Dolls, Bill Sikes in Oliver! and Sir Lionel in Camelot. He briefly attended the University of Kansas but decided to forgo college in favor of pursuing his acting career. In 1988, he married Linda Rattner; the couple divorced in 1992.
After dating actress Miriam Parrish for years, the couple married in 1997. The same year he left Los Angeles and his acting career briefly behind. He earned a certification in airframe and powerplant mechanics. From 2002-03 he was an acting teacher at the Pioneer Valley Performing Arts Charter High School, South Hadley, Massachusetts.
