‘OutDaughtered’: Who Is Aunt Kiki, and Why Did the Quints Want Her Fired?

It was five against one in the May 28 episode of OutDaughtered. After their Aunt KiKi forgot to pick them up at the bus stop, the Busby quints were up in arms. And things only got worse as their frantic aunt tried to get the girls ready for an event at their mom’s work. 

Aunt KiKi says watching Busby quints is ‘total chaos’ 

In the latest episode of the TLC reality series, KiKi – whose real name is Crystal Mills – stepped in to help out her sister Danielle Busby and watch the girls. But it didn’t take long for things to spiral out of control. First, KiKi forgot to fetch her nieces after school, and they had to walk themselves home from the but stop. They weren’t pleased. 

“KiKi should be fired because she forgot us girls,” Riley said in a confessional. Meanwhile, her sister Parker chimed in to criticize her aunt for always saying “bad words.”

Then, as KiKi tried to get the quints dressed for an event at Danielle’s Graeson Bee Boutique, she realized she’d forgotten to put their clothes in the dryer. The girls weren’t inclined to help out their overwhelmed aunt. 

“It has been a hectic day, so we had no time, and then it was just, you know, one thing after another. It’s crazy,” KiKi said in a confessional. “It’s just so overwhelming. I mean, it’s total chaos.”

Who is Aunt KiKi from ‘OutDaughtered’?

Aunt KiKi is Danielle’s older sister. While she was in over her head with the Busby quints, she’s actually not a stranger to multiples, as she’s a twin herself. (Her twin sister is Ashley Mowbray, aka Aunt LiLi.) The three siblings are close. Together, they had a line of fitness apparel called CADi Fitness. But in January 2023, they announced they were shutting that business down. 

“These CADi sisters have decided it is time to say farewell to CADi Fitness,” Danielle wrote on Instagram. “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.”

Crystal is married to Dale Mills. The couple has two children of their own, daughter Mackenzie and son Bronson. They post about their family on TikTok at @thamillsfam. You can also follow Crystal on Instagram.
