The singer, who's scored more than a dozen Grammy nominations —and five wins — between her solo music career and her time with mom Naomi in the Judds, said the best songs come from stories about her own family.
I've got three bonus children and my two children that I birthed. They're grown. You know, I've got one on parole, one on patrol, baby," she joked. Judd shares two children with ex-husband Arch Kelley III: a son Elijah, 25, and a daughter, Grace, 24, who was granted parole and released early from the West Tennessee State Penitentiary in November after serving less than two years for violating probation for a drug charge.
The singer learned about her brother, Michael, at age 30 when she discovered she and her sister, Hollywood star Ashley Judd, shared different biological fathers. I found out, you know, part of my life that I thought, you know, this man who was my biological father is not. And it's Ashley's father," she shared. She married her current husband, Larry Strickland, in Home News.

In a bizarre twist, the car was never driven by Ashley, but by Wynonna and Arch's year-old daughter, Grace. Ashley believed the device was planted due to an ongoing custody dispute between her and Wynonna as the girl was in Ashley's care.
According to another article by ABC News , Ashley released a statement about the family drama saying, "The issue at hand is the illegal violation of my privacy in that a tracking device was secretly and unlawfully placed on my vehicle.

I knew that both Roach and I had issues with addiction when I married him. I know my life. I know the people I chose, I know why I chose them and I really thought that I could change people through loving them enough.
It doesn't work that way. She claims that singular action "blew the door open to my soul. She confessed to knowing Roach's victim and explained the healing phase had begun for his or her family.
I literally had to physically, emotionally and spiritually literally place them at the feet of Jesus. She adds that Roach was in recovery. As for her personal life, she's trashed anything that reminded her of Roach's memory. I don't wish him dead or anything like that.
I just wish to be one of those people that doesn't spend my life being defined by that. Important days like weddings usually call for heaps of family and fun.

According to Us Weekly , Wynonna wed Cactus Moser in June of , with only her children and her new husband's children present. No other family members were notified of the ceremony. What makes the situation so shocking is the close proximity the Judd family lives to one another.
I was so concerned about making this feel special for them, everything fell away. She also claims her self esteem would have plummeted if her family was present adding, "If I know Ashley, she would have re-positioned my dress, or mom would have given me a Kleenex to stuff in my bra, or told me, I have something in my teeth. I just didn't want that. I just wanted to get married! Despite all the fame and country-music glory, Naomi Judd's life hasn't been easy. In , she confessed to suffering from terrible depression.
