When Brittany Kerr Aldean, 36, married the country superstar in March 2015, she officially became the stepmother of Jason Aldean‘s oldest daughters, Keeley and Kendyl. The pair are from the Georgia native’s first marriage to high school sweetheart Jessica Ussery.
“I really do find myself being kind of like a big sister, which is actually really fun,” Brittany recently shared with Us Weekly in a past interview promoting her South Beach Diet partnership. “I do love the fact that they’re a little bit older because it’s so fun. I really am starting to relate to them, especially the older one. She’s going through things now that I can really relate to.”
While being a stepparent can be difficult, Brittany is grateful for her relationship with Keeley, 21, and Kendyl, 17, “Sometimes it’s a thankless position, but I’m very, very fortunate in the fact that the girls are awesome. They love me, I love them. We get along very well. I’m really thankful that they’re the ones that I’m in this position with.”

Keeley Williams: The Oldest Daughter
Keeley, born in 2003, is Jason Aldean’s eldest child, from his first marriage to Jessica Ussery. Now 21 years old, Keeley has grown up away from the spotlight but occasionally shares glimpses of her life on social media. Known for her love of music, Keeley seems to have inherited her father’s artistic flair. Jason has mentioned in interviews that Keeley enjoys playing the guitar and has an ear for music, though she hasn’t pursued it professionally — at least not yet.
Kendyl Williams: The Free-Spirited Middle Child
Born in 2007, Kendyl is the second child of Jason and Jessica Ussery. With her vibrant personality and creative interests, Kendyl is often described as the family’s free spirit. While she shares her sister’s love for music, Kendyl is more vocal about her passion for the arts. Whether it’s painting, drawing, or experimenting with new crafts, Kendyl’s artistic side shines brightly.
During the early stages of the pandemic, Jason and Brittany were unable to see the girls for about a month. After staying put at Jessica’s home, the pair were able to safely visit the Aldean’s Florida beach house and spend time with their younger half-siblings, Memphis and Navy. Once the family moved into their new Tennessee estate, the pair have proven to be frequent residents.
In May 2019, Brittany shed more light on stepping into the stepmom role via a Instagram Story. When a fan asked for advice about being a “bonus mom,” Brittany was honest.
“Whewwww! Buckle that seat belt, girl!” Brittany responded. “It’s tough but you have the opportunity to REALLY impact their lives.”
“ROCK IT and be a strong foundation for them!” she added.
Brittany also revealed that Keeley and Kendyl normally stay with them every other week and a lot during summer break. This arrangement means the two girls get lots of time to bond with their blended family.
