Ree Drummond, our favorite star of The Pioneer Woman blog and Food Network show, recently hosted a beautiful engagement party for her daughter Paige.
Fans of Ree’s show and blog might have spotted some familiar faces among the party guests, making the celebration feel like a reunion of sorts.
The engagement party was filled with close family members, adding a warm, personal touch to the event.
Of course, Ree’s husband, Ladd Drummond, known to fans as the “Marlboro Man,” was right by his daughter’s side.
Ladd is a multi-generational cattle rancher, and he often pops up in the background of Ree’s social media posts, either working on the ranch or taste-testing her mouth-watering recipes.
Also present at the celebration was Ladd’s brother, Tim, along with his wife, Missy.
Both Tim and Missy are familiar faces to fans of The Pioneer Woman, as they have appeared on the show numerous times over the years.
It was clear that the Drummond family was out in full force to support Paige on her special day.
One of the most unexpected but delightful surprises at the party was the appearance of Ree’s nephew, Stu.
Stu was a regular on The Pioneer Woman when he was younger, often helping out on the ranch and sharing his charming personality with viewers.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, when the usual camera crew couldn’t film the show, Stu stepped up and helped with filming, using just a phone camera.
Stu eventually left the show to attend college, but he made a special return to celebrate his cousin Paige’s engagement.
Ree even shared a heartwarming (and slightly cheeky) story about how Stu played a role in Paige’s very existence.
When Stu was born, Ree visited his mother in the hospital and was so overcome with baby fever that she called Ladd on the way home, declaring that she was going to get pregnant that night.
Nine months later, Paige was born. Ree joked about this in her blog, saying, “Considering Paige has Stu to thank for her life, his presence was fitting.“
Paige Drummond is the second -oldest of Ree and Ladd’s five children.
She grew up on the family’s Oklahoma ranch, frequently appearing on her mother’s show.
Paige’s older sister , Alex, is currently pregnant with what will be the first grandchild in the Drummond family, adding even more excitement to this already joyful time.
Paige’s engagement party was more than just a celebration of her upcoming marriage; it was a gathering of family, friends, and cherished memories.
With familiar faces from The Pioneer Woman days and heartwarming stories shared by Ree, it was a night filled with love, laughter, and a strong sense of family.
As Paige prepares for the next chapter of her life, it’s clear that she has the full support and love of her family behind her.
Ree Drummond, also known as “The Pioneer Woman,” started by writing a blog about her life on a cattle ranch in Oklahoma.
She shared stories about her family, delicious recipes, and the joys and challenges of country living.
People quickly fell in love with her down-to-earth style, and her blog became a huge success.
Building on this popularity, Ree began starring in her own TV show on The Food Network, also called The Pioneer Woman, which started in 2011.
Over the years, Ree has written several cookbooks, a children’s book, and even an autobiography.
In 2015, she expanded her brand by launching a line of home products, including cookware, kitchen tools, clothing, and outdoor living items, all designed to bring a cozy, country feel into homes.
Ree Drummond and her husband Ladd are parents to five kids—two daughters and three sons.
Their first daughter , Alex, was born in 1997, followed by Paige in 1999.
Then came their sons: Bryce in 2002, Todd in 2004, and their foster son, Jamar, joined the family in 2018.
Alex is the eldest Drummond child. She grew up on the family’s Oklahoma ranch and was homeschooled by Ree.
After attending college in Texas, Alex married Mauricio Scott in 2021.
She now works closely with her mom, helping with various projects and filming for The Pioneer Woman show.
Paige, Ree’s second daughter, was born in 1999. Like her siblings, she was homeschooled before heading off to college at the University of Arkansas .
After graduating, she returned to help with ranch work and is now engaged to her boyfriend, David Andersen.
Bryce is the Drummonds’ first son , born in 2002. He attended high school in Pawhuska, where he excelled as a football quarterback.
After high school, Bryce continued his football career at college, first at the University of North Texas and later at Oklahoma State University .
Todd, the youngest Drummond child, was born in 2004. He followed in Bryce’s footsteps and became a quarterback at Pawhuska High School.
Todd plans to play football at the University of South Dakota and has recently started his college journey .
Jamar joined the Drummond family in 2018 when Ree and Ladd became his foster parents.
He quickly became a beloved part of the family, excelling in football and eventually playing for the University of Central Oklahoma.
