What is Brody Jenner’s first wife Kaitlynn Carter doing now? Split and more explored amid Hills star’s marriage to pro surfer

Brody Jenner has tied the knot with his second wife, Tia Blanco.

Jenner, the son of Caitlyn Jenner, held his nuptials at his mom Linda Thompson's Malibu home. Page Six has reported that about 70 guests were present, one of whom was Brody's father, Caitlyn Jenner, as well as his first wife, Kaitlynn Carter.

The Hills: New Beginnings star and Brody announced their divorce in August 2019, a year after they celebrated their wedding in Indonesia. At the time, Carter told People Magazine that she and Jenner had been “growing in different directions,” but were still friends. The latter told Page Six the divorce “was very mutual.”

Carter eventually moved on with Kristopher Brock, with whom she has since welcomed two children. The pair got engaged in August 2023. These days, she seems to be spending her time with her children, as seen on her Instagram, where she offers fans glimpses into her personal life. She shares son Rowan and daughter Willow with Brock.

In an essay for Elle, Carter outlined the demise of her and Brody Jenner's marriage:

“He was quite possibly the most beautiful man on the planet, with a heart of gold and a tireless sense of adventure,” she wrote. “Eventually though, after years of constant ‘excitement,’ we found we’d done as much growing apart as we’d done growing up. I began to spend a lot of time traveling on my own or with friends, quietly mourning what I knew in my heart would soon be the end of my marriage.”

Brody Jenner, 41, and Tia, 28, exchanged their vows at Linda's house, who promptly took to Instagram to share the news. She shared a video of the newlyweds entering their reception to the song Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield. She captioned the post,

"Mr. and Mrs. Jenner."

The professional surfer sported an off-the-shoulder lace gown while Brody Jenner opted for a traditional tuxedo. Ahead of the ceremony, Tia had a "bridal blessing" with her friends and family. She has since posted on Instagram:

"A truly special day I will never forget. I have the very best friends in the world. Thank you for blessing our marriage tomorrow and making me feel so loved and special. My gratitude runs deep for my sisterhood tribe [heart emoji] thank you to my maid of honor, @ajablanco for putting on this incredible bridal blessing. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better bridal celebration with these group of girls. I love you all so much. (sic)"

The pair announced that they were expecting their first child back in January 2023, and by the following year, they announced their engagement. In a clip taken at their baby shower, Brody Jenner could be seen announcing:

"I just want to thank you all for coming here. Really appreciate it. Love you all. Wait, one more thing, one more thing..."

He then got down on his knee and popped the big question. Shortly after, Tia took to Instagram to commemorate the moment:

"Still feel like I am dreaming [ring and heart emojis] please don’t pinch me. Yesterday was the most beautiful baby shower that ended with a proposal from the man of my dreams. It was so special to share these moments with the people we love so much. I know baby girl felt all the love in there!!! … I can’t wait to marry you @brodyjenner!!! (sic)"

Back in January, during an interview with People Magazine, the “Special Forces” alum said he already felt like he was married to his now-wife. Brody Jenner disclosed at the time that their wedding was not going to be “crazy extravagant,” and he was most excited to see his wife in her wedding dress.

“Tia in the dress, that’s going to be incredible. I’m very excited for that. She’s said that she’s in love with this dress, and I won’t let her show me, but I’m very excited to see Tia in the dress,” he said. “I think that Honey also has a nice little dress that’s a little surprise. So I’m excited to see Honey and her little outfit, Tia, just celebrate with friends and family.”

TMZ has reported that Brody Jenner met his now-wife in April 2022. At the time, they were on a family vacation in Hawaii, and had “an instant connection” over their “shared love for the ocean."
