Malibu: The reality television star Brody Jenner and pro surfer Tia Blanco officially tied the knot this weekend in a private ceremony held at Linda Thompson’s residence in Malibu. The wedding marked Brody’s first legal marriage in the U.S. and was attended by several close family members, including Caitlyn Jenner, who appeared despite mourning the recent death of her longtime manager Sophia Hutchins.
Sources confirmed to TMZ, “Brody and Tia got married at his mom Linda Thompson’s Malibu home on Saturday evening. Around 60 to 70 guests were present—including Caitlyn Jenner.”
Brody, 41, and Blanco, 28, have been together since April 2022. The couple got engaged in June 2023, while Blanco was pregnant with their daughter Honey, who turned one earlier this year.

Speaking to People in January, Brody said the couple already felt spiritually bonded. “Tia in the dress, that’s going to be incredible. I’m very excited for that,” he said. “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.”

Jenner also shared that their daughter would be part of the celebration: “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.”
This wedding marks a milestone for Brody, whose previous 2018 commitment ceremony with ex-partner Kaitlynn Carter in Bali was not legally recognized in the United States. Caitlyn Jenner did not attend that earlier event but made it a point to show up for this one despite personal grief.
Caitlyn’s appearance came shortly after the tragic passing of Sophia Hutchins, who died in an ATV crash earlier this month. Law enforcement said Hutchins crashed into a car and plunged into a chasm. Jenner has remained quiet on the matter but was seen grabbing coffee the next day.
Despite the emotional weight of recent events, Caitlyn “wouldn’t miss Brody’s wedding for the world,” according to a family insider.
