Personal life
On September 13, 2015, Maddie announced that she was engaged to Caleb Brush. For the proposal, he took her to a scenic lookout point on his ATV.

"'It was cold and we were huddled in jackets and I thought he was crazy to stop. He said to come look over here. So I walked with him to the edge. He told me he could never express how much he loved me, but he wanted to spend his life trying, and went down on one knee and pulled out a box. I started kissing him and saying, 'Yes, yes!'' - Maddie on the proposal."

Although her parents are practicing polygamists, Maddie and her husband don't currently have plans to live this lifestyle themselves.
