RIPš¢!! Is there Alive Or Dead? Matt Roloff Car Accident | Little People Big World | TLC |
MATT Roloff and his girlfriend Caryn Chandler have broken down in tears in a new video following a family tragedy.
On this weekās episode ofĀ Little People Big World, the Roloffs were struck down by theĀ heartbreaking passing of Ron Roloff,Ā who wasĀ Mattās dad.
Known to the family as āPapa,ā Ron died at the age of 84 on July 31.
Matt, 61, revealed what happened during a confessional.
āCaryn and I were down inĀ ArizonaĀ cause my dad was getting more and more ill,ā he explained.
Caryn, 55, wiped away a tear and Matt choked up as he continued: āAfter putting up a very good fight for several weeks, he finally succumbed to his lung issues and and he passed away peacefully.ā
Sitting down for a heart-to-heart at Roloff Farms, Matt told his girlfriend: āIām just glad we got down there when we did.ā
He explained that Ronās condition was unpredictable from each day to the next.
āI thought he was gonna walk out of it, and then there was a point like, āUh-oh!ā, a chance he might not.
āAnd then the next day he would be doing good.ā
Caryn described the experience as a ārollercoaster.ā
COMING TOGETHER?
Ronās passing came at a time of bitter division in the family.
Matt is currently on bad terms with his sonĀ ZachĀ after the pair failed to reach a deal to pass down part of the family farm.
However, the clan all came together to say goodbye to Ron at his bedside.
Matt welled up as he shared: āWe can all not get along for this, that, or the other thing, but when the crap hit the fan, within hours they were by my dadās side.ā
The Roloffs, including Zach’s brotherĀ JeremyĀ and his wifeĀ Audrey, came together again with a memorial service for Ron that was held in November.
However, Caryn barely spoke to Zach and his wifeĀ ToriĀ at the event, aĀ source exclusively told The U.S. Sun.
“They just said hello and goodbye, it wasn’t the place to sit and talk about the feud, but things don’t seem to be going in that direction anyway right now,ā claimed the insider.
Amid the ongoing beef, Caryn hasĀ decided she won’t be involvedĀ in filming any future seasons of Little People.
