TLC's hit reality series OutDaughtered revolves around Adam and Danielle Busby and their vibrant family, consisting of their eldest daughter Blayke Louise, and quintuplets Ava Lane, Olivia Marie, Hazel Grace, Riley Paige, and Parker Kate. Additionally, the beloved TV show often features appearances from various other family members.
Among these relatives are Danielle's twin sisters, Ashley Mowbray (Aunt LiLi) and Crystal Mills (Aunt KiKi). We know quite a bit about Ashley — she owns Heist Hair Bar and is the board secretary for Anchor Point — but what about Crystal?
Here's everything we know about Aunt KiKi!
Who is Aunt KiKi from 'OutDaughtered'?
Crystal Mills was born on November 13, 1982, and hails from League City, Texas. She has carved out a notable presence in the reality TV world, rising to fame on OutDaughtered, where she lovingly assumes the role of Aunt KiKi to her six nieces.
Aunt KiKi is depicted as an integral part of her nieces' lives, showcasing the tight bond she shares with them. Off-screen, Crystal is a devoted wife to Dale Mills (who just so happens to be her co-host on the Happily Ever Banter podcast) and a proud mom to their two kids, Bronson and Mackenzie.
In 2019, Crystal and her sisters co-founded the company CADi Fitness. However, on Jan. 18, 2023, Danielle took to Instagram to announce they were shutting the business down.
"Hey, y'all! CADi Girls have some Big News to share. With heavy hearts, these CADi sisters have decided it is time to say farewell to CADi Fitness," she wrote. "We've had to realign & prioritize our personal & business responsibilities, and ultimately, we don't have the capacity to focus on maintaining and growing CADi Fitness at this time in our lives.
Danielle added, "To our CADi Girls, you have meant the world to us. We are truly grateful for your love and support over the past three and half years."
Aunt KiKi said babysitting the quintuplets is "total chaos."
In the May 28, 2024, episode of OutDaughtered, Aunt KiKi is on babysitting duty — but things quickly take a chaotic turn. The quintuplets express their displeasure with Aunt KiKi when she forgets to pick them up at the bus stop, leaving them to trek home on foot.
"KiKi should be fired because she forgot us girls," Riley says in a confessional with her sisters. Adding to the frustration, Parker notes, "And she also says bad words."
As Aunt KiKi attempts to get the girls ready for an event at Danielle's workplace, several challenges mount. While delegating tasks, including sending Riley to get "nice clothes" from the laundry, KiKi realizes she "totally forgot I had to put the clothes from the washer into the dryer, I mean it just totally slipped my mind."
Plus, the girls' resistance complicates matters further. When instructed to wear dresses, they voice their objections.
"I hate dresses," Hazel declares, as she and Olivia enjoy Oreos and milk. To make matters worse, Aunt KiKi then mistakenly identifies Olivia as her twin, Ava, escalating the situation into utter chaos.
"It has been a hectic day. We had no time, and then it was just one thing after another. It's crazy," Aunt KiKi says in a confessional. "It's just so overwhelming. I mean, it's total chaos."
