My dad had 6 wives & I have 45 siblings – I found a husband in the same area but I had to make sure he wasn’t my brother
A WOMAN has shared what life was like for her growing up with an insane 45 siblings.
Ashley Sandmire shared the story of her upbringing via a video posted to her TikTok channel.
“I grew up in a family that practiced a polygamous religion“, she explained.
She said that because of this her dad had six wives, and all of his wives each had many children.
Ashley explained that her own mum had 12 children but that all together she has 45 brothers and sisters, the oldest of which is 55 and the youngest of which is 12.
She said that the enourmous family grew up in Nevada where they lived in trailers within a small community that all went to church together.
However, Ashley said that when she was just two years old her family split up and moved away to Utah, so she was unable to see her siblings as much.
She said: “One of the hardest things for me growing up was the fact that I never understood why I got to be with my siblings sometimes but not all of the time”.
Ashley revealed that she sibling number 38 out of 45 and that many of her siblings from different mothers are very close in age, so they had lots of fun together growing up.
