<p id=”par-3_74″>One fan pointed out that the youngest McBee brother seems incredibly invested in his life more than an hour away from the family business. When Steve McBee and his first wife, Kristi McBee, divorced, she stayed in Independence, Missouri. Brayden stayed with her. The town, close to the Kansas border, is far from the Gallatin, Missouri, base of Steve McBee’s farm. Steve and Kristi officially divorced in 2021 when Brayden was still a teen. </p>

<p id=”par-4_59″>The McBees discussed why Brayden was less involved in the farm than his brothers on the show. In episode 5, Brayden revealed that of the four brothers, he spent the most time with his mother. He said that when his siblings opted to go to the farm each weekend to work, he preferred to stay at his mother’s house. </p>

<p id=”par-5_61″>Brayden noted that he was less interested in farm life and never had much interest in working full-time in the family business. The 20-year-old did note that there were some negative consequences to that decision. He revealed that while he’s never had a “falling out” with his father, he simply is not as close to him as his older brothers are. </p>

<p id=”par-6_44″>During episode 5 of <em>The McBee Dynasty</em>, Steve McBee said his youngest son was “too young” initially to enjoy time on the farm, but he isn’t all that much younger than his siblings. <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/joe-millionaire-for-richer-or-poorer-stars-steven-mcbee-calah-jackson-mutually-end-relationship.html/”>Steven McBee Jr.</a> is the oldest of the bunch.

<p id=”par-7_52″>Jesse McBee is two years younger than his older brother, Steven. Cole McBee, 23, is considered the “middle child” by the family. That means there are just eight years between the four brothers. Brayden is the baby of the family, but he is just three years younger than his closest in-age sibling. </p>
