Texasmom1970 June 29, 2023 Share June 29, 2023 So happy for GG to have her new grandson in her life. Not gonna lie this was a hard watch for me. My youngest daughter passed away in 2018, she was twelve. Just like GG anyone who looses a child for whatever reason you always have guilt. Feeling you failed as a parent. The rest of the episode had too much of Poppy being loud and annoying. 4 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/110946-doubling-down-with-the-derricos-general-discussion/page/11/#findComment-8058835
Gemma Violet June 30, 2023 Share June 30, 2023 (edited) Some of you may know the video blogger Without a Crystal Ball (WOACB). She does a lot of videos on the Duggars. At the beginning of today's Duggar video, she said she spent the afternoon talking with Deon Dericco's brother Chris's family and she put the info on Instagram. There are some shocking allegations. We knew about the fraud allegations, but there's apparently more, if this is true. Below are the links. There are allegations of abuse, as well as Amari not being Chris's only child. Read the comments, as WOACB answers some questions there. For example, in response to the comments, WOACB says that the family had nothing good to say about Gigi😲and that Deon doesn't live with Karen and the kids. Of course, this is all alleged, but who knows.

Gemma Violet July 1, 2023 Share July 1, 2023 In one of the comments, WOACB says the family said that Karen had fertility treatments. This contradicts the Derricos' earlier statement on the show that there were no fertility treatments--that despite the many multiples, it was all natural. I thought that statement was strange since the odds of having several multiple births naturally would probably be one in several billion. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/110946-doubling-down-with-the-derricos-general-discussion/page/11/#findComment-8060333

Gemma Violet July 13, 2023 Share July 13, 2023 The accusations I posted about above have apparently not gotten any traction in the media. I'm thinking maybe the show is a low-rated, low-profile show, since normally Page Six or the Daily Mail or TMZ would have pounced on a story like that. Or, more likely, they just didn't see the accusations since it was only posted in a video blogger's IG that has few followers. So Derrico and TLC get to continue the show with no accountability, but I'll bet Derrico had a few sleepless nights after seeing that IG.

I know she often does stories with clickbait titles that are sometimes exaggerated, but the reason I leaned towards the Derrico story being authentic is because she doesn't usually make up stories out of thin air. It's usually based on something she was told or something she read, even though she can twist an innocuous non-story into a story. Lol. Also, she had quite a few of the old family photos which I assume were given to her. Of course, the family could have been exaggerating themselves when she spoke to them. Who knows. Oh well, so the Derrico show will continue on, and I guess Karen will continue to pump out babies.

Quickbeam July 27, 2023 Share July 27, 2023 I don’t know anything about the show or the family. I was in suburban NJ for a high school reunion a couple weeks ago. The Derrico van pulled up next to me at the Holiday Inn. More kids than I could count, all wearing DERRICO t-shirts. Only adult was an older woman, looked like a grandma or older relative. They were gone the next day. Parked in a H/C spot, Nevada license plate DERRICO. I thought it was a church group so I Googled them. I’m creeped out by mega-fertility, full quiver philosophy in general. It bothered me that these kids obviously have to live like branding sandwich boards. 4 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/110946-doubling-down-with-the-derricos-general-discussion/page/11/#findComment-8087985

Dibs May 8 Share May 8 (edited) I'm watching because it's in my usual Tuesday night trash tee-vee slot, and it's a bad habit! This show is so fake and forced, and they're such bad actors, but I guess a lot of people will watch just for the kids, who are all very cute and personable. Clearly they're hoping for something like a very large Jackson Five group to come out of this as they're all drilled in dancing, singing, and performing in general. The oldest girl seems very intelligent, but I fear that she's doomed. The dad and grandma sure have the waterworks going every week! Why is a random unrelated adult male apparently living with them and always there interacting with the kids? Skeeves me out.

After7Only June 12 Share June 12 Team Karen on the Darian/NYU fight. Darian is not mature enough yet to make this type of decision 100% on her own. She needs some parental guidance. Papi Dericco's position feels like he trying to keep Darian close and hold her back. Reminds me of the situation with Dawson getting accepted into a gifted program, and her parents not letting her participate because the rest of the triplets weren't accepted. They made an excuse the she would miss her siblings too much, but it felt like they were just trying to keep her in their bubble and not shine on her own. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/110946-doubling-down-with-the-derricos-general-discussion/page/11/#findComment-8391354
