Maddie Brush took a step back from her family show, Sister Wives, during her late teens. She chose to keep privacy over fame and pulled out from the drama. The star kid soon walked down the aisle and has been living happily ever after with her partner. She and Caleb live in North Carolina.
Amid all this, fans were in shock when they got to know about the estranged relationship Kody shares with Madison’s kids. The latter claimed that her children don’t even recognize her father as their grandpa anymore! But why? What is the reason behind this strained bond?
Sister Wives: Why Don’t Madison’s Kids Recognize Kody As Their Grandfather?
Janelle makes it a point that she is a part of everything that is happening in her kids and grandkids’ lives. She is often featured traveling from state to state just to make sure that she is there to support her children. But it seems that this isn’t the case when it comes to Kody and his relationship with the Sister Wives star kids.
Usually, Madison doesn’t really talk about her family drama. But this time, she was determined to spill the tea during her time on the Somewhat Basic Podcast. The star revealed that her father hasn’t been around her kids enough for them not to recognize him as their grandpa.
Madison bluntly said, “They don’t recognize him.” She further explained that she won’t be forcing Kody to have a relationship with her kids. Moreover, the former Sister Wives cast member doesn’t want to put any kind of “unnecessary heartache” in her children’s lives. This is because they are too young to understand the complexities.
As per Madison, if someone is a part of her family, it doesn’t mean that they are “entitled” to have a relationship with her kids. She believes that if a person is “mentally healthy” and is ready to make “efforts,” they can surely have a bond with her children. But if not this, she won’t be forcing anything on her toddlers.
Sister Wives: Madison Says Christine & Janelle Are Very ‘Involved’ In Her Kids’ Lives!
Madison Brush ranted everything that was in her heart about Kody. But amid all this, she didn’t forget to acknowledge the hardcore efforts of Janelle and Christine. The Sister Wives star kid revealed that the latter is “very involved” in the lives of her children.
Though Janelle lives in Arizona while Christine lives in Utah, they find their own ways to be present in Madison’s life, who is in North Carolina these days. Moreover, she even talked about how her “siblings” also make efforts to be a part of her and her children’s lives.
Amid all this, Madison believed that she was really lucky. It’s because she has been away from all the drama and chaos that her family is undergoing these days. She started, “I always tell Caleb that I’m grateful because I feel like God moved us here.” Janelle’s daughter feels that it was really “good” for her that she stepped into her own. Hence, Brush is raising her kids as per her will.
Madison also talked about how her family has been falling apart on national television these days. She added, “There still is a lot of heartache.” Yet she made sure that her kids didn’t see all this chaos.
