Early Life: Parents, Age, And Height

Misty Raney is the youngest daughter of the famous Raney family. 

There are no accurate details of her birth date; however, few sources have claimed that she was born between the late 1970s to early 80s, which puts her in her 40s as of March 2022. 

She stands tall at 5 feet 8 inches or 172 cm.

Her old man Marty Raney is an Alaskan survivalist who spent his whole life living off the grid. 

Marty introduced wilderness to Misty and her siblings, two brothers, Miles, and Matt Raney, and a sister Melanee.

He taught them to build houses, do farming, gardening, construction, and more—basically, all the things that help them live a life away from all the modern conveniences.

Misty has loved every part of it since childhood. She was more into construction. 

In an interview, she talked about her love for building and construction.

"I love to swing a hammer, and to construct things from a few simple materials," says Misty. "It's weird, but I do. Anything to do with a building, gardening, livestock, hunting, accessing water, and more, my family thrives in helping others get a handle on their own situation. Alaska keeps us tough."

As of now, she is a series regular on Discovery's Homestead Rescue: Raney Ranch.

Married Life: Husband And Son

Raney is married to Maciah Bilodeau, a carpenter, and a surfer. 

The couple is reportedly together for more than two decades, married for more than a decade. 

They have a son named Gauge, who is between 8 to 10 years old as of 2022.

In early 2021, Raney was speculated to be pregnant following her sudden weight gain. 

However, she cleared out all the rumors and stated that her body was just changing and she was not pregnant.

Her husband is originally from Hawaii, and the couple splits their time between Hawaii and Alaska. 

They have houses in both states. In fact, the duo built an 800-square-foot cabin from scratch near Misty's family home, where they spent summer every year working and helping others.

Breaking all the stereotypes, Misty has risen to be the show's fan-favorite, which is all about building and construction.
