Growing Up In Polygamy

Inside the Apostolic United Brethren: Power, Abuse, and Fear for the Future


Listen Later

In this interview, we sit down with Emily Lee, the daughter of the current prophet of the AUB (Apostolic United Brethren) church. Emily shares what it was like growing up in a polygamist household, how her father’s leadership affected their family, and why she made the difficult decision to leave the church as a teenager.


She also reflects on her concerns for the future of the AUB, especially as she sees similarities between her brother and Warren Jeffs. Emily shares her personal perspective on what it’s like to grow up in a high-demand religious group and how those early experiences still impact her today.


This conversation offers an honest and personal look into life inside the AUB and what it means to step away from it.
