The Roloff family, known for their hit reality TV show ‘Little People, Big World’, has captured the hearts of viewers for close to 20 years since the show first aired in 2006. The family, consisting of Matt and Amy Roloff and their children Zach, Jeremy, Molly, and Jacob, has been through ups and downs both on and off-screen. The show originally showcased the Roloff family living on their farm in Oregon, with Matt having diastrophic dysplasia, Amy and Zach having achondroplasia, and the rest of the children being of average height.
One by one, the Roloff children have grown up and started their own families, leading them to step away from the cameras. In February 2024, Zach and his wife Tori announced their departure from the series after season 25. In May 2016, Matt and Amy ended their 27-year marriage, bringing changes to the family and the farm. Matt introduced his fiancée Caryn Chandler, and Amy found love again with Chris Marek. Recently, on July 22, Matt revealed that he and Caryn had called off their engagement.
Matt Roloff, born on Oct. 7, 1961, in San Francisco, has had a successful career not only on the show but also as a farmer and entrepreneur. He was previously married to Amy and together they raised their four children. After their divorce in 2015, Matt started a relationship with Caryn Chandler, a former employee at Roloff Farms. Despite a brief split in July 2025, Matt continues to focus on his various ventures, including being a children’s book author and a motivational speaker.
Amy Roloff, born on Sept. 17, 1962, has also moved on since her divorce from Matt. She married Chris Marek in 2021 and continues to balance her roles as a reality TV star, entrepreneur, and motivational speaker. Amy has written books and shared her recipes in ‘Amy Roloff’s Little Kitchen’, highlighting her passion for cooking and sharing her experiences with her audience.
Zach Roloff, born on May 10, 1990, has been an integral part of ‘Little People, Big World’ until his departure in 2024. Alongside his wife Tori, they navigated the challenges of parenthood while sharing their journey with viewers. Despite the occasional hardships, the couple remained authentic on-screen, showcasing the realities of raising a family. After leaving the show, Zach has focused on his family and personal life away from the spotlight.
Jeremy Roloff, born on May 10, 1990, alongside his twin Zach, also departed from the show in 2018 after over a decade of being in front of the cameras. He and his wife Audrey have ventured into entrepreneurship with their company Beating 50 Percent, advocating for stronger marriages. The couple released a book in 2018, emphasising the importance of intentional relationships and love.
Molly Roloff, born on Sept. 17, 1993, has chosen to stay out of the limelight since leaving the show for college. She married Joel Silvius in 2017, celebrating their union at the family farm. Molly continues to focus on her career, working in accounting and balancing her personal life with her preference for privacy.
Jacob Roloff, the youngest of the Roloff siblings, has pursued a career in photography and writing since leaving the show in 2016. He is also involved in organic farming and remains committed to his principles and values. Jacob has spoken out about his past experiences on the show, including revealing his traumatic encounter with a former producer. His openness about his struggles has resonated with many, showing his strength and resilience.
The Roloff family continues to navigate life’s challenges and successes, each following their unique paths beyond the TV show that brought them into the spotlight. While their journey may have had its share of difficulties, the Roloffs remain a close-knit family, supporting each other through life’s twists and turns.
