‘LPBW’ Star Tori Roloff Discusses Possibility of Dwarfism for Baby No. 3: ‘I’d Love Not to Know’

Little People, Big World stars Tori Roloff and husband Zach Roloff welcomed baby No. 3, son Josiah Luke, on April 30. The couple has not revealed if their third child has dwarfism, but Tori previously shared candid answers to fans who were wondering. 

“Do you want to know if this baby is a dwarf or let it be?” a follower asked the TLC star, 31, during a brief Q&A with fans on her Instagram Stories in November 2021 after she announced her pregnancy.

“I wish this could be a surprise too but when [doctors] tell me I need a [C-section] it makes it sort of obvious,” Tori replied after previously revealing she and Zach, 31, wanted the baby’s sex to be a surprise. 

She followed up her answer with a clarification. 

“We won’t know if he or she is a dwarf until further into pregnancy. And with dwarves it’s encouraged to have a [C-section] because of bigger head size,” the soon-to-be mom of three shared. “I was saying, I’d love to not know but IF my [doctor] says I need a [C-section,] it would be obvious to us.” 

Tori did not reveal in Josiah’s birth announcement on Instagram if she had a cesarean section during delivery.

Zach was born with achondroplasia, the most common form of dwarfism. His mother, Amy Roloff, and both of his children, Jackson, 4, and 2-year-old Lilah, were also born with this type of dwarfism. 

Tori and Zach made the happy announcement that they were expecting their third child in November 2021.  

“We are so excited!” Tori captioned a photo of the current family of four, with their son, Jackson holding a sign reading that his new little brother or sister will be arriving in Spring 2022. “Baby Roloff will be joining us this spring and we are so grateful to God for this sweet gift!”

“We got some exciting news to announce! Baby coming spring of 2022!” Zach shared on his Instagram account, along with a beaming Tori holding the photo of her sonogram. “Tori is looking as beautiful as ever.”

On top of the exciting baby announcement, the couple recently moved from Portland, Oregon, to a beautiful four-bedroom, three-bathroom home in Battle Ground, Washington — a perfect home to welcome their newest addition. 

The news of the pregnancy came a little more than a week after Zach’s brother and sister-in-law, Jeremy Roloff and Audrey Roloff, gave birth to their third child. Zach’s youngest brother, Jacob Roloff, and his wife, Isabel Sofia Rock, also welcomed their first child, son Matteo, in December 2021.

“Such an exciting time,” Matt Roloff commented on Tori’s post. “Soo happy to see these babies are rolling in fast and furious! #grandpalove.”
