Matt Roloff of "Little People, Big World" has a new girlfriend and it turns out that her family won't be seen on the show. Matt is now dating Caryn Chandler. She was working at the Roloff farm as Matt's assistant and everyone knows her. The thing is Caryn has been on the show, but her ex is keeping her children from being on the reality series. This all started way before Matt and Caryn were dating.
What does Caryn's ex have to say?
Caryn's ex isn't just saying that their children can't be on the show, but he is actually already took legal action to make sure that they aren't on reality television.
Actually, back in 2012, Caryn's ex-husband Jacob made sure his kids wouldn't be on the show. This was before Caryn was dating Matt, but was already on the show working at the farm. He wasn't happy about the idea of his children being on the show and did everything to make sure it wouldn't happen.
They have two teenage sons. He didn't want the kids to be on "Little People, Big World," but he also didn't want them to step foot on the Roloff family's property in Hillsboro, Oregon. The documents said, "Mother will not take [redacted] to her employer’s property without Father’s permission. Neither party will allow the children to be filmed for television without the consent of the other party."
The parents can't even discuss each other's employment in front of the kids.
This was all probably fine when Matt and Caryn weren't a couple, but now that they are dating this is going to be making things a lot harder. He is going to want the kids in his life and his life is on the farm. It might be easier if the kids could at least come to the farm, but not be on reality television.
Could he change his mind?
This all happened years ago. The thing is now that Matt and Caryn are dating he could decide to allow it. Their children are also older, so they might be able to make their own decisions at this point. There is also the option that now that they are a couple he might consider changing his mind as well.
Once Matt and Amy's son Jacob Roloff turned eighteen he decided that he didn't want to be on the show and moved on.
Are you surprised to hear that Caryn Chandler's children might not be allowed to be on the show? Do you think her ex will change his mind? Sound off in the comments section below on your thoughts, and don't miss new episodes of "Little People, Big World" on TLC. If Caryn's children end up on the show, it probably won't be right away considering she just started airing as Matt's girlfriend.
