Fans of âLittle People Big Worldâ have criticized Amy Roloffâs husband, Chris, after he admitted that Amy struggles with his friendship with her ex-husband, Matt. In a recent TLC Instagram snippet, Amy and Chris were seen on a picnic, where Amy, 61, discussed Chris, 62, and Mattâs, 62, bromance. Chris revealed he was glad Amy was becoming more comfortable with their friendship, even though she initially had to âchoke it down.â This remark didnât sit well with fans, who felt Chris disrespected Amy by maintaining a close relationship with Matt against her comfort.
Amyâs recent business filings also drew attention. On December 30, 2023, she filed an annual report for her business but did not use her married name. Earlier in December, she filed a report for Amy Roloff Enterprises, again using her maiden name. This decision raised questions among fans about the state of her marriage to Chris.
The relationship between Matt and Amy is described as being in a âCold War Phase.â Despite moving on with new partnersâMatt with Karen Chandler and Amy with Chrisâtheir interactions remain tense. Fans have noted that while Matt appears more comfortable in this new dynamic, Amy still feels the emotional impact of their past. Mattâs casual jokes with Chris about Amy further strain their relationship, making Amy uncomfortable.
Amy and Mattâs children, especially Zach, are also affected by these dynamics. Amyâs warmer, maternal nature makes her the go-to parent for emotional support, while Mattâs decisions, such as selling part of Roloff Farms instead of leaving it to his children, have been seen as betrayals. This ongoing tension has left fans questioning Mattâs motivations and loyalty.
In the midst of these personal dramas, Amy remains committed to her advocacy work. At a recent fundraiser for the Dwarf Athletic Association of America (DAAA), she spoke about the importance of sports in teaching resilience and life lessons. Having been involved with the DAAA for nearly five decades, Amy emphasized the value of learning to pick oneself up after setbacks.
