Wynonna Judd is embracing a new chapter in her life and is sharing it with her fans. The country singer has just taken the role of caregiver for her 2½-year-old granddaughter amidst her daughter, Grace Kelley’s, ongoing legal challenges. Grace has faced multiple arrests, leading Wynonna to step in to ensure a stable environment for young Kaliyah.
In an interview on Today with Jenna & Friends on January 30, the 60-year-old Wynonna Judd opened up about her daily life, revealing that her routines have shifted since the time she began to care for her granddaughter. She has been focusing more on Kaliyah’s upbringing and the contents the 2½-year-old is exposed to.

Grace Kelly gave birth to her daughter, Kaliyah on April 13, 2022, some weeks before the passing of her grandmother, Naomi Judd. It was an emotional time for the Judd family, especially Wynonna. In an Instagram post, Wynonna Judd expressed her commitment to personal growth and dedication to being a healthier grandparent to Kaliyah. However, this journey into grandmotherhood has since been filled with challenges concerning Grace Kelly’s arrests for indecent exposure and other charges.
Despite these challenges, Wynonna’s determination keeps getting stronger. In the interview, she revealed her lack of a computer and television as a way of raising her granddaughter. “I listen to her,” she remarked. When co-host Jenna Bush Hager asked about shows like Bluey, Wynonna explained that her granddaughter is not a fan but enjoys Ms. Rachel.

As the interview continued, Wynonna Judd revealed her struggle with her granddaughter’s love for Ms Rachel, “I’m about to lose my mind.” She said, but cohost Bush Hager disagreed, stating that she enjoys it and joked about not being able to like animated movies. However, both women agreed about Peppa Pig.

For Wynonna Judd, life on her farm is “simple and sweet” and not a model of the kind of life she lived at 17 where she was “on the road” and never learned “to do life outside of show business.” Currently, the 60-year-old singer aims to change the narrative for her granddaughter.
