'sMothered' star Mary says she showers with her daughter Brittani

Mary and her daughter Brittany take showers together. In a 2020 interview with Monsters and Critics, Mary mentioned that Brittany faced challenges with "congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) during her upbringing."

As a result of the disorder, Brittani encounters panic attacks, which is why Mary joins her daughter in the showers.

'sMothered' star Brittani suffers from a disorder called congenital adrenal hyperplasia

For those who may not know, Brittani used to participate in beauty pageants during her childhood. During that period, she secured over 200 trophies and crowns.

In one episode, Mary said, "I wanted to keep Brittani in pageants for as long as she wanted to be in pageants. Eventually, it stopped, only because of her health issues."

The 59-year-old added, "One day I was in the bathroom getting her ready for her shower and noticed she started getting hair all over her body. Under her chin, under her arms, getting pubic hair, her breasts were developing. I was astonished."

Subsequently, the mother clarified that her daughter Brittani grapples with a condition known as congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

Mary added, "It's a missing gene. And what happens is when they hit a certain age — 4 or 5 years old — they start full-blown puberty."

On the show, Brittani explained, "I went through so much change in so little time. My bone size progressed when I was 5 and I had the body size of an 11-year-old. And it was pretty scary because I didn't know what was happening. I felt like, 'Why me?' I just wished that I was born more normal."

Brittani continued, "I would be made fun of because I always stood out. I was always the bigger girl. My mom was my best friend — and my only friend — because she knew what I was going through."

Mary said, "That's why we're conjoined at the hip."
