‘Sister Wives’’ Star Kody Brown Reveals Daughter Asked Why He Didn't Like Her
Kody Brown's family is getting bigger again.
After all, the Sister Wives star's oldest daughter Aspyn Brown—who he shares with ex Christine Brown—is pregnant.
Aspyn confirmed her pregnancy during an April 30 news segment about Mother's Day presents. After Fox 13 News anchor Morgan Saxton remarked how "fitting" it was to have the 30-year-old—who is a manager at a Kendra Scott boutique in Utah—share her gift ideas on-air while expecting her "first little one on the way," Aspyn smile and nodded as she showed off her baby bump in a blue-and-white dress.
The pregnancy news comes six years after Aspyn tied the knot with carpenter Mitch Thompson in a 2018 wedding. The ceremony was documented in a 2019 episode of her family's TLC show.
"She's just beautiful as can be," Kody gushed of his daughter at the time. "She's just so lovely."
However, the 56-year-old's bond with Aspyn has since soured following his 2021 breakup with Christine, with whom he also shares kids Mykelti Padron, 28, Paedon Brown, 26, Gwendlyn Queiroz, 23, Ysabel Brown, 21, and Truely Brown, 15.
On the April 27 episode of Sister Wives, Kody revealed that Aspyn had "confronted" him over their strained relationship.
"Aspyn literally asked why I didn't like her," he shared. "And I'm like, 'Sweetheart, I love you. And I have, always have and always will.'"

The dad of 18 went on to explain how he felt "alienated" from many of his children after his split with Christine, as well as her sister wives Janelle Brown and Meri Brown. (Currently, Kody is only with his fourth wife Robyn Brown.)
"We haven't had a lot of connection," Kody added. "So I'm trying to establish this relationship where they're no longer having me represented to them by my ex-wives."
