Predicting Zach & Tori Roloff's Departure from Little People, Big World: The Telltale Signs

After almost twenty years, Zach Roloff and his wife Tori Roloff are saying goodbye to Little People, Big World at the end of its twenty-fifth season. The show originally focused on Amy Roloff and her ex-husband Matt Roloff's marriage, but things changed as time passed. The spotlight has shifted to their son Zach, his wife Tori, and their three kids.

Throughout the years, Little People, Big World has captured the Roloff family's journey through many changes, including Amy and Matt's difficult divorce that affected their four kids. As season 25 kicks off, Zach and Tori are facing tough family challenges, especially with Zach's health crisis, just as they prepare to leave the show. Looking back, it's not a surprise that Zach and Tori are stepping away from the series, as there were clear signs that they were ready to move on.

Zach Had Several Health Issues

He Has To Put His Health First

Little People, Big World star Zach recently had urgent surgery to address a health issue related to his dwarfism. Since the show's debut in 2006, Zach's journey into family life has been documented, including his marriage to Tori and the birth of their three children: Jackson, Lilah, and Josiah.

Unfortunately, just before the premiere of Little People, Big World season 25, Zach was hospitalized for emergency surgery. Jackson, his five-year-old son, tried to help his dad recover. Zach and his family chose to focus on his health rather than being in front of the camera.

" Being on television is what I know , and all the experiences that come with that ."

Zach Was Feuding With His Dad

A Family in Turmoil

Zach, one of Amy and Matt's four children, was the only one who continued to appear on the show Little People, Big World and had a strong bond with his parents. However, things took a turn for the worse when Zach offered to buy the family farm, but Matt suddenly decided to take it off the market. Since then, father and son have barely spoken, and Zach has revealed that their relationship has suffered greatly. The situation became even more strained when Matt began a romantic relationship with Caryn Chandler, a former longtime employee of the family. Tensions grew to the point where Zach and his wife Tori refused to let Matt babysit their children.

They Wanted To Focus On Their Family

Family First

Zach, now 33 years old, first appeared on reality TV when he was just a teenager in 2006. The show, Little People, Big World, follows the lives of Amy, Matt, and Zach as they navigate the challenges of living with dwarfism. Zach shared, "Being on television is familiar to me, along with all the experiences that come with it."

Tori entered Zach's life while he was filming for Little People, Big World, and the two eventually got married. Their family grew with the arrival of three children. However, filming with kids proved to be tough, and it wasn't long before Zach and Tori realized it was becoming too overwhelming for them.

"We are done. That part of our lives, that chapter has closed."

During a recent episode of Zach and Tori's podcast, Raising Heights, Tori revealed, "We are done. That part of our lives, that chapter has closed." She also mentioned the recent family conflict, expressing, "I do feel like it was also time for us to move on because I didn't want, personally, to hate your family." It seems that all the family drama eventually led Zach and Tori to step away from the show, which may not come as a surprise to many.

Zach Didn't Want To Force Their Kids To Film

But They Don't Blame Them

During the podcast, Zach and Tori mentioned that they don't want to pressure their kids to be on the show. They find it challenging to film with children, and Tori mentioned that Jackson, their eldest, has already shown he doesn't want to be part of filming.

Despite a recent episode of Little People, Big World season 25 that showed Zach and the kids having fun on scooters in the house, it's not always fun and games when filming with children. As their kids got older, it should have been obvious that the family couldn't keep appearing on the show for very long. That being said, Zach and Tori made it clear that they do not blame their kids for their decision not to continue with the show.
