Caryn Chandler Forbids Matt from Inviting Amy to Their Party, Wants to Start Their Own “Traditions”
Caryn Chandler has had enough! The Little People, Big World star finally put her foot down when it comes to her boyfriend Matt Roloff's relationship with his estranged ex-wife, Amy. On the season finale of the hit TLC series, it was Christmas on the farm, but things were far from merry and bright. When Matt suggested inviting Amy to their party, Caryn pushed back.
"So what do you think, as a courtesy invite Amy to drop in?" Matt, 56, asked Caryn. "I mean you can," she replied. "But it might be nice to start our own traditions." She added, "I know the kids and they know me, but blending families is always interesting. So I'm a little nervous about the party, I'm not going to lie."
Ultimately, Matt decided to respect Caryn's wishes and chose not to invite Amy or her boyfriend, Chris Marek. "I didn't invite Amy and Chris tonight," Matt told Caryn. "I thought I could've. It would've been nice. I thought Amy could drop by and be cool and chill but there's still something there that just brings tension or something to the room."
The two have been notoriously feuding all season, and many suspect it's because Amy is jealous of Caryn. On a recent episode, the Roloff matriarch said she doesn't like seeing Caryn with her kids and grandkids. "As co-owner of the farm, I do what I need to do for pumpkin season, but I still struggle with, ‘How do I interact with her. What do I say?' I will admit, I still struggle with that. Working with Caryn and Matt has been difficult. Seeing her with Jackson… it's difficult. These are my kids and my grandbabies. It's definitely been the hardest thing to watch."
Fans definitely picked up on the awkwardness, and some thought Amy was nervous Caryn might take her place in her children's lives as a stepmom. "It's obvious Amy is super jealous of Matt's new girlfriend. Looks like her kids feel comfortable and like her very much too," a fan tweeted. "Amy needs to get over it, she has her boyfriend now."
