Sister Wives celebrity Gwendlyn Brown and her partner, Beatriz Queiroz, got married on Saturday, July 15th. Brown, 21, posted wedding portraits on Instagram the next day and captioned them with "Say hello to Mrs. Queiroz" (x2). Brown looked stunning in a white gown, while Queiroz, also 21, looked dapper in a matching suit.
In May 2022, Gwendlyn Brown, daughter of Kody Brown and ex-wife Christine Brown, made their relationship official on Instagram. She shared a carousel of photos featuring the couple, including one where they had their arms around each other.
In September of the same year, Gwendlyn and Queiroz marked their six-month anniversary with a memorable dinner prepared by Queiroz. Gwendlyn expressed her excitement over Queiroz's planning skills and mentioned that they enjoyed chocolate fondue. She shared pictures of them embracing and a fun video of them posing via Instagram.
Queiroz proposed to Gwendlyn after less than a year of dating, and the couple joyfully shared the news of their engagement on social media. Gwendlyn excitedly posted a carousel of pictures along with the announcement, exclaiming, "I'm engaged!"
Gwendlyn's parents, Kody (54) and Christine (51), ended their 27-year marriage in November 2021. They also have four daughters named Aspyn (27), Mykelti (26), Ysabel (19), and Truely (12), as well as a son named Paedon (24).
In October 2022, Gwendlyn and Queiroz attended the wedding of Gwendlyn's older brother, Logan Brown (28), to Michelle Petty in Arizona. Logan is the eldest child of Kody and his former wife, Janelle Brown.
Kody legally married Meri Brown, his first wife, in 1990. He later wed Janelle and Christine a few years after. In 2010, Kody spiritually married his fourth wife, Robyn Brown. In November 2021, Christine became the first wife to leave the plural family. Meri, on a December 2022 episode of Sister Wives, confirmed that her marriage with Kody had officially ended. Janelle also revealed that she and Kody had separated.
As for Gwendlyn, she initially shared her sexuality during an October 2022 episode of Sister Wives. She explained to her parents on the show that she identifies as bisexual, being attracted to both women and men, as well as people who identify with different gender spectrums.
The next year, Gwendlyn revealed that she had been requested to discuss her bisexuality in a candid YouTube video while her parents were going through a divorce.
"At that moment, I appeared angry, but I wasn't actually upset. I was slightly disappointed," she remembered. "I had expected to talk about the divorce, but out of nowhere, they changed the subject to my sexuality, Gwendlyn."
She continued, expressing her feelings, "They seemed to view my identity as a queer individual as a means to gain attention and fame. It felt odd, although I understand it may not have been intentional. Additionally, they brought up my autism, which was unexpected. I had anticipated discussing my parents' divorce instead."
Gwendlyn is the second person in her family to publicly reveal their true self. Her older sibling, Leon, bravely came out as transgender in June 2022. (Leon, who is 26 years old, is the child of Kody and Meri). Meri and Leon attended Gwendlyn's wedding together, joyfully posing for a photo shared on Instagram last Saturday.
"Recently, someone enlightened me with the idea that I don't need to have my life completely sorted out in order to open up and connect with the world," Leon expressed on Instagram. "Therefore, I want to reveal that I am trans, acknowledging that I am still very much in the process of figuring things out. My chosen name is Leon or Leo (I genuinely adore both), and I prefer to be referred to using they/them pronouns."
