Alaskan Bush People star Gabriel Brown’s wife Raquell reveals couple secretly welcomed their second child, a baby girl
ALASKAN Bush People star Gabriel Brown’s wife Raquell revealed the couple secretly welcomed a baby girl last month.
The pair are already parents to a 2-year-old daughter, Sophia, who they have kept out of the spotlight.
Raquell took to Instagram to share a rare photo of her toddler resting her head on the star’s newborn, however, with her face out of view.
She wrote: “I’d like to share with you a special picture and some insight into your life recently. This year has been especially hard for our family, but with hard time, blessings come as well.
“As many of you have noticed, I take my privacy and my children’s privacy very seriously. You may not see us around often, as you do with Gabe, none the less we’re still here. We continue to ask for our privacy from the public eye.”
She continued: “Within the last month we’ve welcomed another addiction to our family and Sophia is happy to be a big sister.
“Thank you for all your support and many blessings to the future. Sophia says, ‘Aww cute! Baby sister.'”
While the couple have kept their family life out of the public eye, back in August Gabriel showed up in a rare photo with their daughter Sophia.

His brother Bear’s baby mama Raiven shared a snap of Gabriel holding Sophia while posing next to Bear and his son, River.
Just like their second child’s birth, Gabriel and Raquell kept the arrival of Sophia a secret as well.
PRIVATE BIRTH
The couple revealed their first child at the time during an episode of Alaskan Bush People months after they welcomed the little one.
Gabe gushed in a confessional: “Being a dad is great, you know taking care of little ones. I feel like I was kind of geared for it.
“It’s definitely different though when you’re the dad. Like, you’re the guy… the buck stops there.”
He added: “Life on the mountain’s pretty rough. But that’s the way all of my brothers and sisters grew up.
“I don’t want her to be a city baby. I want her to be a bush baby…
“So I want some of her first sights and smells to be of the bush so she remembers what my childhood reminds me of.”
Gabriel’s father Billy, who has since passed away, told his son at the time: “You blink and it’s going to be 20. It’s unbelievable it happens so fast.”
