After her daughter’s passing, Brooke Bailey uploaded a series of Instagram stories which included images of Kayla. Some were pictures from family get-togethers while others were stories she re-shared from other platform-users.

Apart from Kayla, Bailey has two other children, Shumecio, who was born in 1998 and her youngest child who was born in 2004. However, details about the third child are unavailable.

In January 2022, Bailey announced that she was divorced from Holland. Sources claimed that the couple split amicably, and this seemed to be something Bailey agreed with, as she said in an interview, “Endings can be peaceful.”

In fact, that same month, the founder of SkinByBrookeBailey also uploaded an Instagram story where she said:

“Wife sounds better than girlfriend, but single sounds better than stupid. Yes, I’m single.”

The Opulent Icon founder also discussed in an interview with The Jasmine Brand that she is open to another relationship. She seemingly expressed regret over her marriage to Holland and said:

“I knew I should not have been marrying him but I was like, ‘I’m going to do it for my kids,’ which was the wrong decision. I did that and it didn’t work out but I knew that when I was getting myself into it that it wasn’t the right thing to do and I was in my early 20s then too.”

Before tying the knot, Bailey was linked to retired NBA player Rashard Lewis. She also dated Detroit Pistons’ Vernon Macklin.
