Jeremy Roloff just showed a side of himself in public that we’ve never really seen before.
Or heard before, we guess we should write, considering this side emerged during the star’s most recent podcast with his wife.
Intrigued? You should be!
As you must know by now — if you’re a fan of Little People, Big World and/or the Roloffs in general — both Audrey Roloff and Tori Roloff are pregnant right now.
The former is due right around Thanksgiving (with a baby girl!) and the latter is due on January 8 (and has not yet learned the gender of her impending child).
What a blessed time for the family, right?
What a time to just sit back and realize their good fortune, while planning for an exciting, kid-filled future, right?
Yes, but only to a certain extent it seems.
On the latest installment of their joint podcast, Jeremy got more worked up than almost ever before when the topic turned to an ongoing question among social media users.
“Question of the century that everyone wants to know,” said Audrey, introducing the subject. “No, Tori and I did NOT plan to be pregnant together.”
It seems that a certain section of the Internet thinks the sisters-in-law planned their simultaneous pregnancies — for the sake of ratings? Attention? It’s unclear.
And it’s also VERY annoying, Jeremy emphasized on air, cutting in on Audrey and stating strongly:
“I’m gonna say that this is probably one of the most ridiculous, ignorant, rude, selfish …”
At this point, Audrey cut right back in herself, defending the couple’s followers by trying to explain their reasoning for asking the question. Or at least their ignorance behind doing so.
“I think a lot of people that are asking this question haven’t tried to get pregnant," she said.
Audrey’s point?
Getting pregnant can be really hard. It can sadly be downright impossible for some couples.
This isn’t something you just plan with to at the same time as your female loved one.
“It’s coming from a complete point of ignorance,” Jeremy said. “Or just rudeness, I guess. It’s really disrespectful for the journey, the difficult journey, that a lot of women specifically have to go through…
"Because getting pregnant is a gift from God … to say that, ‘oh you just chose to get pregnant because this other person’ … ugh, I don’t know.
"It just really kind of rubbed me the wrong way that a lot of people are saying that. I just have to be frank about that.”
We appreciate the candor, that’s for certain.
Audrey announced her pregnancy on July 1, while Tori went viral with her major news on May 13.
At the end of the day, Audrey noted, she and Tori are around the same age and both couples are simply experiencing the same “season of life,” so it shouldn’t come as a complete shock that they’re both expecting second kids around the same time.
(Editor’s Note: Amy Roloff told us that Audrey and Jeremy actually did not plan to get pregnant at this time.)
But still, “it’s just ridiculous,” Jeremy summed up in regard to the pregnancy speculation.
