Kendyl Rotunda and Cadyn Rotunda are popularly known as the celebrity kids of American professional wrestler, Bray Wyatt. They were born during their father’s short-term union with his ex-wife, Samantha. Before passing away from a heart attack on August 24, 2023, Bray had two additional children with WWE announcer JoJo.
Bray Wyatt’s Children are products of the Wrestler’s 5 years long marriage with Samantha
In 2012, Bray Wyatt got married to Samantha Rotunda, his high school sweetheart of many years. The couple’s marriage resulted in the birth of two stunning daughters, Cadlyn (12) and Kendyl (14). Sadly, Bray and Samantha’s marriage did not last long, as they split up in 2017.
Samantha took to Instagram shortly after the couple’s divorce to share her viewpoint on the process and explain how the love she had felt for her husband had been replaced with hatred. Samantha and Wyatt divorced in March 2017, however, her article seems to imply that Wyatt’s affair with Offerman may have persisted since 2015 or 2016.
She continued by saying how Wyatt’s selfish behavior devastated her and that she detested him for his affair’s negative effects on their family. She went into great detail about how she supported Wyatt even before he rose to the rank of WWE Superstar and how his affair was a betrayal of their marriage and their family.
Samantha’s message suggests that Wyatt let the limelight and the fame he achieved in WWE get to his head. She ended her post informing Wyatt that the life they created together can never be fixed.

Wyatt’s children, who were born in 2011 and 2013, respectively, are still young and right now are concentrating on their studies. However, their mother has previously given hints about their love for football. Samantha’s IG post on November 5, 2022, reads
From the soccer fields ⚽️…..to evening sunset drives! Today was a busy day but watching my babies do their thing is what’s most important! I was able to be mommy and still spend some time with clients viewing 3 properties over in Pasco County 🚙 So thankful for days like today.
Meanwhile, the celebrity kids’ father whose complete name is Windham Lawrence Rotunda is a third-generation professional wrestler, following in the footsteps of his grandfather Blackjack Mulligan, his father Mike Rotunda, and two of his uncles, Barry and Kendall Windham.
Also, Wyatt’s younger brother Taylor Rotunda, better known as Bo Dallas, is also a professional wrestler who competed in Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW).
Regarding Wyatt’s career, he won the WWE Championship once and the Universal Championship twice, becoming a three-time world champion in the WWE. Additionally, he has held the Raw Tag Team Championship with Matt Hardy and the SmackDown Tag Team Championship with Luke Harper and Randy Orton under the Freebird Rule.
From August 2018 to April 2019, he took a break, after which Wyatt reappeared with a fresh ruse. After leaving WWE in July 2021, he returned to Extreme Rules in October 2022 as a new character who claimed to represent his “real-life” personality while also progressively reintroducing his other personalities. His second return would be shortened when he took a break starting in February 2023 as a result of contracting COVID-19. He only competed in one televised match during his second stint, which took place at the 2023 Royal Rumble.
