Орландо Браун рассказал о сложном пути к воссоединению с дочерью после пяти лет в системе опеки

Orlando Brown revealed his life is completely different from how it used to be. “I didn’t have my daughter five years ago. She was in foster care,” Brown, 38, told Revolt on Wednesday, August 12. “I put that work in and got my baby out of that bull**** ass situation.” The That’s So Raven alum explained, “I’m different now because I have my baby with me now everywhere I go. Traveling is even harder trying to train a little girl. It’s fun at the same time.” Brown noted that his daughter, whom he didn’t identify by name, does things that he doesn’t “recognize” after being apart for so long. “For five years she was with a whole different family, three different families,” he said. “So she’s picked up traits that I don’t understand.” Brown said he wants to be mindful of how her experiences have shaped her while building their own bond. “It’s for me to make sure that I understand her at the end of the day,” he shared. “Because she’s just her dad at the end of the day. She looks just like me.” Us has reached out to Brown’s rep for comment. The Major Payne actor didn’t reveal which of his children was in foster care. However, he shares son Frankie, 6, and daughter Annie, 2, with ex-wife Danielle Anglin. Anglin announced daughter Aaliyah’s birth in June 2025, revealing she has the same last name as the actor. (Anglin is also the mother of sons Jeremiah and Ezra.) Brown is also reportedly the father of son Maisen, whom he shares with Ashley Ashe, son Hunter with Omena Alexandria and daughter Journee with Brianna Henson. Brown’s openness about regaining custody of his child comes after several years of ups and downs with the law. In January 2016, the former Disney Channel star was arrested in California and charged with domestic battery, obstruction of justice and two felony counts of drug possession. Alexandria, who was dating Brown at the time of the arrest, claimed during an April 2025 episode of Investigation Discovery’s Hollywood Demons series that she “didn’t realize there was a drug use problem until his violence kind of gradually escalated.” After Brown’s 2016 arrest, he was charged with possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia, bringing methamphetamine into police headquarters, battery, and resisting or delaying arrest, according to CNN. The former child star pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor possession charge and no contest to the other charges. He was given three years of probation with a 62-day credit for jail time already served. Two years later, Brown raised eyebrows when he falsely claimed during a 2018 interview with Dr. Phil McGraw that the late Michael Jackson. “My full name is Orlando Brown Prince Michael Jackson Jr.,” Brown alleged at the time. “My father was Michael Jackson, the great Michael Jackson.” While Brown appeared to get his life back on track after marrying Anglin — the exact date of their wedding has not been publicly shared — the former couple’s relationship has since ended. Anglin confirmed via Instagram in May that she is “no longer married to Orlando.” “My divorce was granted today, and while this journey has not been easy, I can honestly say I feel peace,” she wrote in the caption. “This isn’t about hate, revenge, or tearing anyone down. This is about healing, freedom, growth, and choosing a healthier future for myself and my children.” If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 for confidential support.
