Tulip Victoria Khaury is popularly known as the only child Tiny Tim ever had. There isn’t much information about Tulip because she has succeeded in keeping her life very far from the eye of the public, unlike her father who was a famous American singer and multi-instrumentalist.
Consequently, Tulip is enjoying several media mentions because of the relationship she had with her late father, TinyTim. Be that as it may, we have been able to discover some interesting details about Victoria’s life and what she is possibly up to.
Who is Tulip Victoria Khaury?
She is an American celebrity kid who is famous as Tiny Tim’s only child and daughter.
She was born on May 10, 1971, and is currently 53 years old.
Although Tulip’s name is widely mentioned, there is hardly anything that is known about her early life, education, and career. Also, there is no social media account that is linked to her at the moment.
However, she has remained in the spotlight because of the prominence of her father who was a very influential musician that was active between 1962 to 1996.
Both Her Parents are Known Entertainers
Tulip Victoria Khaury’s parents are both entertainers. Her father is a popular American singer and instrumentalist known to have released several albums like God Bless Tiny Tim (1968), I Love Me (1993), and Tiny Tim’s Christmas Album (1994).
Tiny was born on April 12, 1932, in Manhattan, New York City, and began to display great musical talent at a very young age. He began to teach himself the guitar at the age of six and developed a passion for records from the 1900s through the 1930s.
Tulip’s father released his first album in 1968 titled God Bless Tiny Tim and he had a total of 15 studio albums, 7 compilation albums, and 5 Live albums.
Her mother Vicki Budinger on the other hand was also a talented entertainer whose artistry was rather shadowed by that of her estranged husband.
Budinger or ‘Miss Vicki’ as she was fondly called was born on April 20, 1952, in Haddonfield, New Jersey, USA.
She married Tiny when she was only 17 years old and her husband was 20 years her senior at that time. The couple got married on The Tonight Show on December 17, 1969, with over 40 million people watching. The ceremony remains the highest-rated episode in American TV late-night show history. However, they got divorced in 1977 due to irreconcilable differences.
Before the couple parted ways, Tulip’s mother notably starred in T.V shows like The Mike Douglas Show (1970-1973), The David Frost Show (1971), and The Ed Sullivan Show (1970-1971). She also had a brief and unpronounced modeling career at some points in her life.
Tulip is Tiny Tim’s Sole Daughter Despite His 3 Marriages
The 53-year-old celebrity kid has remained her father’s only daughter even though he married 3 times in his lifetime. Tiny’s first marriage was to Victoria Mae Budinger in 1969. The marriage lasted only 8 years as the couple got divorced in 1977 as mentioned earlier.
Tiny’s second marriage was to Jan Alweiss in 1984. The couple lived together for about 11 years and divorced in 1995. Tiny later married Susan Marie Gardner the same year he divorced Jan and Susan remained his wife till he passed on in 1996.
From all of these marriages, Tim had only one child – Tulip Victoria Khaury.

Her Father Died of a Heart Attack During a Stage Performance
Victoria’s father died on November 30, 1996, aged 64. Tiny who already had a history of heart problems experienced a heart attack while playing at a gala benefit hosted by the Women’s Club of Minneapolis.
Prior to his death, he had experienced a heart attack at a ukulele festival in Montague, Massachusetts. He was hospitalized at the nearby Franklin County Medical Centre in Greenfield for about 8 weeks before he was discharged and warned not to perform again. However, Tiny ignored the warning and his actions ultimately led to his death.
What is Tulip Victoria Khaury up to?
So many people have wondered where Victoria is at the moment as not much has been heard of her since her father died 27 years ago. This is an obvious indication that she was only in the spotlight as a result of her late father’s prominence.
Be that as it may, we have confirmed from a credible source that Tulip got married to William Ervin Stewart some years back and is now a mother of 4 kids; Cherise, Jade, Trey, and Zharia. Also, several sources have said she is currently living in Pennsylvania, New Castle.
While it appears that Tulip is actually residing in Pennsylvania with her family, she has not left traces that will show what she has made of her life outside of being the only daughter of the legendary Tiny Tim. One would ordinarily preempt that she shares in the career passion of her parents but it is obviously not so. Taking care of her family might have been her topmost priority in all these years of silence.
