Spencer Pratt recently opened up about his absence from Brody Jenner’s wedding, shedding light on a legitimate reason that kept him from attending the highly anticipated event. The reality star took to TikTok to clarify that he couldn’t make it to the wedding because he was attending a family commitment—specifically, his sister-in-law’s wedding, which was held on the same day.
In a TikTok post, Pratt shared a snapshot of himself with his sons, Gunner and Ryker, and explained, “At Heidi’s sister’s wedding,” referring to his wife, Heidi Pratt. He added, “Holly had her wedding [at the] same time,” highlighting the scheduling conflict that prevented him from celebrating with his longtime friend.
Brody Jenner tied the knot with professional surfer Tia Blanco over the weekend, in a ceremony that paid tribute to their shared history on the iconic reality show, *The Hills*. Both Pratt and Jenner gained fame through the series, which chronicled their lives, relationships, and the ups and downs of young adulthood in Los Angeles. Their friendship has remained strong over the years, despite the challenges that come with fame and personal commitments.
During the wedding reception, Jenner and Blanco honored their reality TV legacy. A DJ called for applause, saying, “Everybody, put your hands together,” as the newlyweds made their entrance, hand in hand. Footage shared on social media by Jenner’s mother, Linda Thompson, captured the moment, with Natasha Bedingfield’s hit song “Unwritten” playing in the background. This song is particularly significant, as it was featured in the opening credits of *The Hills*, evoking nostalgia for fans of the show.
Bedingfield herself has spoken about the impact of her song, saying, “The Hills has a whole generation of people who were just glued to that show. It really has a lot of meaning to people, and I love to be able to celebrate and honor that.” Her words resonate deeply with fans who have followed the lives of these reality stars over the years.
In the spirit of nostalgia, Spencer and Brody recently reminisced about their time on *The Hills* in a lighthearted exchange on Instagram. Pratt humorously asked, “What hits worse, rewatching the show or a toddler kick to the balls?” To which Jenner quipped, “The only thing worse than a toddler kick to the groin is rewatching season 3.” Their banter showcases the enduring camaraderie between the two, even as their lives have evolved.
While the wedding festivities were a celebration of love and friendship, they also highlighted the changes that come with adulthood. Brody Jenner has expressed that his priorities have shifted since starting a family with his wife. In a previous interview, he noted, “Once I had a family, my No. 1 focus in life is just being there for my family and my daughter,” indicating that he has naturally drifted away from many of his former *The Hills* castmates.
Despite not being present at the wedding, Spencer Pratt’s support for his friend remains evident. The bond they share, rooted in shared experiences and mutual respect, continues to flourish, even amidst life’s many changes.
As fans of *The Hills* look back on the series that defined a generation, they can appreciate the friendships that have stood the test of time, even as the stars navigate their own paths. Spencer Pratt’s absence at Brody Jenner’s wedding may have been felt, but his commitment to family and friendship is a testament to the values that matter most in life.
