“i did a big & scary thing tonight & im so proud of myself for being brave & my inner child is so grateful,” Leon wrote on his Instagram Story on Thursday.
He continued: “Open mic night is the best night. Thanks for sharing your hearts and words with us.”
The reality star was previously known as Mariah.
He is the only child of Sister Wives star Meri, 52, and her former polygamist husband, Kody, 54.
The family has 18 children in total.
Leon was an active part of the family’s TLC reality show, Sister Wives, when it first premiered in 2010.
He has since stepped away from the show.
He has not been shown in any of the Season 18 episodes, which premiered in August 2023.
Sister Wives’ Season 18 has focused on Kody’s spiraling marriages.
Three of Kody’s wives have left him.
SISTER WIFE
Kody is down to one wife – his only legal wife, Robyn Brown.
He divorced Leon’s mom, Meri, in 2014, so he could legally marry Robyn and adopt her three children from a previous marriage, Dayton, Aurora, and Breanna.
Meri has since left her polygamist husband. The details surrounding her decision to leave Kody have been revealed in Season 18, which is currently airing.
Kody’s third wife, Christine Brown, announced that she was leaving the polygamist in 2021. She has since remarried David Woolley and moved back to Utah.
Kody’s second wife, Janelle Brown, announced that she was also leaving the marriage behind in 2022.
While Leon’s family drama has continued to play out on the family’s TLC show, he has made it clear that he wants no part of the drama by staying absent.
A source has revealed to The U.S. Sun that Leon’s endured a rough relationship with his dad, Kody in recent months.
“Kody is telling close friends, ‘This is a new person. I don’t know who this person is, but this is not the little girl that I raised.’
“They don’t have a relationship anymore, and because of it, it has affected his relationship with Meri, 100 percent,” they continued.
Contrarily, Leon’s mother, Meri, has stood by his side and supported him fully.
WEDDING BELLS
In August 2023, The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed that Leon wed fiancé Audrey Kriss, 27, in a secret ceremony.
The couple quietly tied the knot on October 29, 2022, at a house in Colorado Springs, Colorado, according to their marriage filing.
The couple got engaged in January 2019 at a Women’s March in Washington, D.C.
Leon regularly shares his love for his wife on social media.
In March 2023, he wrote on Instagram: “I love getting to love this human.”
