Incarcerated Utah parenting YouTuber Ruby Franke told her husband, Kevin Franke, that while he was living outside their family home, life for her and their six children was “blissful,” said the father’s lawyer Monday.

and Jordan MillerUtah parenting YouTuber Ruby Franke told her husband, Kevin Franke, that while he was living outside their family home, life for her and their six children was “blissful,” the father’s lawyer said Monday.

Kevin Franke “believes in the principles of marriage and family, and he was being told that by being separated, he was doing what was best for his kids,” Kester said, adding that Franke has continued to provide for his family financially as his wife faces multiple felony charges of child abuse. “I would take him again because he really knows his stuff,” one reviewer said. Another said that “he is very controlling, and you can only have the same views that he has or you will be looked down on.”

The attorney said he could not discuss how the Franke children are doing. But he said that for the family overall, “there’s a lot of healing to do.”“He’s never condoned, nor has he ever committed any act of violence and certainly wouldn’t condone or support any physical abuse of his kids,” Kester said. Ruby Franke and Jodi Hildebrandt make an appearance in Fifth District Court in St. George, Friday, Sept. 8., 2023. The two women face six felony counts each of aggravated child abuse.

The boy and girl — along with two of Franke’s other children — were placed into the custody of the Division of Children and Family Services, according to a probable cause statement.
