First, if the family admires Caryn, they deserve every bit of whatever they're going to end up feeling when they realize Caryn's all about the benjamins and Matt is as selfish as he's ever been.

The more confused I become about possible reasons for the dogged defense of Matt and Caryn, the more I think about the comparison @funky-rat made above regarding Josh Duggar. I'm not a fundamentalist

Why would she show that sleeve unraveling?  Who would buy that?  It must be quite cool in Oregon this summer for her to wear a sweatshirt. 

That's really a great wagon.  My son has one and loves it.  It does fold up to fit in your car.  I suppose Amy will be selling them along with her fudge and earrings.

I have a wagon like this in red. I call it my little red wagon. It is sturdy and holds a ton of stuff. Light weight and folds up flat. I love it. Bought one for my son in law for Christmas.

Nope. That is complete crap. We started off cool, but it has been a consistently hot, dry summer since forever. We just had the highest low temperature recorded in the Portland area a few days ago.  No way that many people would be comfortable in that this summer. Although I guess if she actually washed it with those frayed ends, there wouldn't be any sleeves left, and it would be appropriate. Maybe she just likes Weezer?

Yes. It is the Amy Roloff's Little Kitchen film crew of only one photographer who shares the same name: Amy Roloff.

And there's Mr Amy sitting next to his beautiful wife, traveling to Italy for FREE.

He can't ever seem to make it to Michigan with the gorgeous Mrs. Roloff but he managed to find time for Italy. He is very unselfish!

He’s definitely living the high life since he hitched his wagon to the little bulldozer, he’d never been on a cruise or off the mainland USA… he meets Amy and she whisks him away on a cruise, he’s been to Hawaii and now he’s off to Italy… who needs the lottery when you can marry the jackpot!  💰🤑🚢🇮🇹

What I don't get about Amy is her continued bitterness and resentment of Matt when she has a husband who makes her so happy and her life with Chris is so wonderful. She never misses an opportunity to trash Matt. This bitterness is an ugly trait. She could  let it go and enjoy her life with her love, her partner her friend. Like the saying goes "Living well is the bet revenge."

I doubt Amy is nearly as bitter as the show may try to portray.  I expect when they aren't filming she isn't talking about or to Matt and is merrily living her life.  The show tries to produce interesting story lines and thus they keep putting the family together to stress the tension.  Without the show, Amy would likely not be seeing Matt unless possibly at grandchildren's birthday parties.

Because Matt's actions continue to impact her children? Because despite his protests, Matt's clearly more than a little bit hung up on Amy? I found the whole "I need to use the security cameras to view my ex wife's wedding secretly" bit really a tad odd. I also find Matt's continued protests that he has to "lock and load" and be ready for battle whenever he invites Amy over strange in that... he keeps inviting Amy over despite his obvious tension over it. Why is he still storing pallets of books for her in his garage? Why is he so insistent on keeping Amy close to where he's intentionally befriending her new husband? Why is he keeping her around for pumpkin season when so many apparently find her costumes awful and her being there pointless?

This. To use the current example - I look at the current post on the trip to Italy and I don't see where there was even a hint of bitterness towards Matt in it.

Also this. Amy and Chris have their own social circle and their own interests. Amy always wanted to travel and look - she's gone to Hawaii, motorbiked to Alaska and back, made trips to visit her dad and now is off to Italy. She seems pretty over Matt and dealing with Matt's farm issues.

The twins are 32 years old now so if his actions are impacting their lives they need to grow up and quit depending on Matt to cater to their wishes. As to the other questions I do not see Matt insisting on keeping Amy close or keeping her books on purpose.  I get the impression that Matt goes the extra mile to keep Amy in a place where she is not bitching at him. He tries to keep things pleasant with Chris and Amy because this is how adults handle divorce and remarriage. Not constantly sniping at the ex spouse and complaining about someone that you are no longer married to.  If it weren't for Amy, Matt and Chris would probably be good friends. Maybe it would be best for Matt if he made it clear that Amy and Chris are no longer welcome to come on the farm.  Amy comes across as an unhappy woman unless she in charge and catered to.

I rarely watch/watched the show and I still shade Matt every chance I get--judging his behaviors AND adultery, because I believe that's what it was.  Co-conspiritor-sweetheart, Caryn, has at least helped reduce Matt's nastiness toward Amy...a tiny bit.

Does Caryn truly believe the "Amy" part of the equation when commenting that eventually she and Matt will be couple-friends with Amy and Chris?

If Chris needs to be friends with Matt outside the show, he can do it solely...and never insult Amy by describing what great times they have--OR suggesting further couples get-togethers.

It wasn’t a video, so no audio, the post itself had nothing to do with Matt. How would a hint of bitterness appear? There are plenty of examples of her bitterness, on the show and off.

How is telling the public that you're afraid she'll explode so you have to "lock and load" against her not sniping and complaining about the ex spouse. I mean, this is not a compliment, in my opinion.

To be honest, I don't believe Caryn when she insists she wants to be couple friends. Or rather, I think she wants to be couple friends for the show to make filming easier but otherwise has no interest in socializing with Amy and Chris.

That wouldn't be unusual considering they are divorced and there are hard feelings. What's odd is Matt's desire to be besties. Considering Matt's emphasis on how he's always so concerned she will blow up at him to where he's stressing to the public how he has to prepare for it by "locking and loading" for every interaction... I don't see what pleasure these get togethers bring him. Unless he gets off on it. And I think he does. Opinions vary, obviously.

Sure. But Amy is their mother and even though they're 32 she is still allowed to love them and be concerned about them and how they interact with their father.

My bolding...and I agree.  She also loves being a "reality star," whether being called a home- wrecker or not.   I don't believe the sweet persona we see on the show ... and no matter how kind and calm she is currently, years of LIVING WITH MATT will wear her down.  Hope she inserts herself in Matt's decision about his Will as much as he did about the sale of the farm (part of it).  She'll stroll (hike) away with everything.

I keep reading "bitter, bitter, bitter" with reference to Amy. Bitterness is in the hearts of the beholders.  I see disappointment, heartbreak, disillusionment, sadness, anger ... and all justified.  It takes longer for some humans to recover from low blows...decades of low blows.  Eventually, she'll figure she and her kids are fine...just fine.  Definitely better off.

Is she for real with this using paper towels for an apron thing? I cook a lot and have never used an apron, and I manage to stay clean. Is she just being funny, or does she really need an apron that badly? (I don't watch her cooking videos, so I really don't know.) 

Expand  

Maybe you're not 4'2".  She will lean into the stove much closer than the average home cook.  Little People have to improvise throughout their lives.  The world and its equipment don't consider their limitations.

A trip to Italy, in the Tuscany area - Cortona - with these wonderful ladies - while our husbands are in Chianti area.  Cortona is beautiful.  I loved it.  Now we're off today to meet up with the guys and hang out in a villa for a few days and then Chris and I are off to Florence for a few days before we head home.  
A wonderful amazing trip to celebrate our 1st year of marriage.  Italy, I hope to be back someday... but our trip isn't over yet 🤗♥️🎉.

Who are these "wonderful ladies"? I can just hear Chris asking the other guys "hey bros, let's rent a Ferrari and cruise the best strip joints. The wives will be happy drinking. We can check in with them every couple hours."

I wonder who took this photo? It wasn't Amy. I think it was the TLC film crew. Look at the guy in the background at the bar in the black shirt and glasses. He looks very intrigued by the photographer. Or film crew.

Yes I do believe the Italy trip is going be some big special episode for TLC. I hope they also filmed the guys/husbands on their trip to Chianti sans wives!

And could we PLEASE get some pics of Italy, the beauty of the country and less pics of the bulldozer eating and drinking? Is that too much to ask of TLC?

Whether it was a personal trip or a trip for TLC, the first thing that struck me about that photo was how amazing a setting that little place is.  The beautiful stone work, the wall of wine 😍 and the fantastic lighting!  That place has ambiance up the yin-yang.  And that's probably the most authentic, genuinely happy I have ever seen Amy look in a photo.  But who wouldn't be?  In that place?  In Tuscany?  Surrounded by all that wine?

Good point Noom is definitely a diet that goes well with an Italian vacation 👍🏻

I do wish that Chris would smile more often, you’re on vacation *smile* for goodness sake!
