Brody Jenner and Tia Blanco celebrate daughter’s first birthday party – and Caitlyn Jenner makes a shock appearance after Brody said he’d be the ‘exact opposite’ dad

Brody Jenner and Tia Blanco celebrate daughter's first birthday party - and Caitlyn Jenner makes a shock appearance after Brody said he'd be the 'exact opposite' dad

As a seasoned observer of celebrity dynamics, I must say that the evolving relationship between Brody Jenner and his mother Caitlyn is indeed intriguing. Having followed their tumultuous journey for years, it’s heartening to see glimmers of reconciliation, even if they’re subtle.


On Monday, Brody Jenner was absolutely thrilled as he and his fiancee, Tia Blanco, posted charming pictures and videos from the celebration of their daughter, Honey Raye, turning one years old.

“I can hardly believe it, but our cherished baby turns one today! Overflowing with love for you ❤️,” said the 40-year-old reality star in the caption alongside a picture of him and his soon-to-be spouse showering their daughter with kisses on her cheeks.

However, the birthday celebration turned surprising when Caitlyn Jenner, aged 74, unexpectedly showed up, marking a sudden reunion. This was striking because it seemed as though she and Brody had been distanced or estranged.

A few days following Honey Raye’s birth, Brody posted a backstage video that showcased Tia’s pregnancy journey, expressing his intention to adopt a parenting style that would be completely different from the way Caitlyn brought him up.

Additionally, Linda Thompson (Brody’s mom) and Tia’s parents, Sina and Simon, were also present at the event.

Tia posted happily: “Birthday wishes for my world’s favorite girl! It truly feels like watching my heart pulse beyond me, just as they say about having a baby.”

“This year has been my best yet, being your mom, Honey Raye! I’m grateful for the love, joy, and happiness you’ve shared with me. You have a heart so sweet, a soul so pure, a personality that sparkles, and a spirit that brightens everyone around you! Happy 1st birthday, my dear, and know that Mama loves you!”

Honey wore a cute pink dress with a skirt decorated with butterfly-shaped pieces of fabric.

The small child received a beautifully adorned white-iced cake featuring a big ‘1’, symbolizing the special event. She joyously commemorated it by playfully squishing the entire cake onto her own face, as well as Tia’s face.

Brody donned a festive red Hawaiian-type shirt adorned with an image of a baby, although it wasn’t apparent if the baby was meant to represent his own offspring. He accessorized with a black cap sporting white teeth in front.

Tia had a charming appearance, sporting a long-sleeve white linen crop top decorated with yellow floral patterns along the edges.

She dressed it down with a simple set of white sweatpants and gray moccasins.

As an over-the-moon fan, I rejoiced alongside the adored lovebirds as they commemorated Honey Raye’s special day in a charming backyard setting, adorned with gravel paths meandering through towering trees and vibrant shrubbery. The festive atmosphere was further enhanced by whimsical artificial flower arrangements atop metallic stalks, adding an extra touch of enchantment, while playful stuffed toadstools brought a delightful sense of fun to the scene.

In the photograph featuring the grandparents, Linda, Brody’s mom, donned a multi-layered, white dress without sleeves, whereas Caitlyn was seen in a blush-tone top paired with dark trousers, accessorized with oversized sunglasses and a delicate pink sun cap.

It became evident that she had been integrated within the family circle as she appeared once more in a group family picture alongside Brody and Linda, even if she wasn’t placed in the most prominent position immediately beside him.

As a loyal follower, I found it surprising when the ex-California gubernatorial candidate made an appearance at my birthday event, considering Brody’s comments regarding my parenting skills just after the birth of our daughter, Honey.

In a YouTube video chronicling Tia’s pregnancy experience, there was an eager anticipation about becoming a parent, coupled with a reflective gaze at the way Caitlyn brought him up.

‘You know, growing up, I didn’t have the greatest relationship with [Caitlyn],’ he explained.

He said that the former Keeping Up With The Kardashians star ‘wasn’t really around me growing up.’

Rather than adhering to that model, he eagerly anticipated doing the complete opposite and striving to be the most exceptional father I could ever become.

Earlier in 2019, it was clear that Brody showed no interest at all in watching Caitlyn during her stint on the ITV reality show “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!”

When queried about supporting the ex-athlete, he responded, “I’m not familiar with that,” but expressed hope that she would stay well during her jungle adventure.

Previously in the same year, while appearing on The Hills: New Beginnings, Brody stated that his relationship with Caitlyn was not particularly strong during his childhood.

In a conversation with his mother Linda during an episode, he confessed that it was incredibly painful for him when Caitlyn Jenner withdrew from attending what he referred to as his wedding to Kaitlynn Carter, only a week prior to the event.

Instead, it was revealed that their union, which ended in 2019, wasn’t a legal marriage but rather a commitment ceremony they had held.

New Beginnings that he should release his anger or resentment, and extend forgiveness instead.

Brody mentioned that it would have been preferable for her to be present, but it seemed she had more important matters to attend to instead.

In that very episode, he asserted that Caitlyn often forgot to phone her kids on their birthday celebrations previously.

Despite maintaining a relatively private front regarding their personal issues following the birth of his daughter, Caitlyn’s appearance alongside the rest of his family at his birthday celebration hints at a possible reconciliation between them.
