'Little People, Big World': Jeremy and Audrey Roloff to Leave TLC Reality Show

The time has come.

“Little People, Big World” star Jeremy Roloff announced Tuesday that he and his wife Audrey and their daughter Ember Jean will be leaving the reality show after a 14-year run.

“I can’t say thank you enough to all of you who have watched and supported us along the ride,” he said in an Instagram post Tuesday, pointing out that he’s appeared in 17 seasons and more than 300 episodes with his family on the TLC series. “We have the most loyal fans on TV and we appreciate every one of you. You are what made doing this so fun.”

Roloff said that he and his family will “still be supporting” the rest of the family: “The show must go on!”

He also hinted that his family might not be off screen forever. “We have a lot of exciting stuff in the works and are eager to continue the work that the Lord has called us to!” he wrote.

Roloff has been on the show since it premiered in 2006, along with his parents Amy and Matt, twin Zach and other siblings Molly and Jacob. He wrote in his post that the decision to leave was one “concerning Audrey and me specifically.” He also thanked TLC “for putting up with us,” and added that he and his family are “forever grateful” for the opportunity to be part of the show.

But as Roloff said, the show must go on. TLC confirmed Tuesday that the series will be returning for another season as they wished the best to the three exiting Roloffs.

“We wish Jeremy, Audrey and Ember the best, and we are excited to continue to keep up with other members of the Roloff family when Little People, Big World returns next year,” the network said in a statement.

10 Weird (and a Couple Actually Good) Shows on TLC You Forgot Existed (Photos)

TLC is a prime channel to turn on during sick days or in the middle of the night when you can't sleep. Over the years, the network has produced some pretty weird shows. Here's a roundup. (There are a couple gems at the end.)
Various
"Here Comes Honey Boo Boo"

A spinoff of "Toddlers in Tiaras," "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" was a reality show about Alana Thompson, better known as Honey Boo Boo, and her family. The show ran from 2012-2017. Since Boo Boo rose to full blown meme fame, she's faded out of the spotlight.
TLC
"My Strange Addiction"

This show aired from 2010-2015 and documented the lives of those with behavioral disorders -- like obsessive compulsive disorder. Some of the behaviors featured on the show included being married to a doll and eating bricks.
TLC
"Extreme Couponing"

The things people will do to save money, and boy do these people know how to save. Couponing isn't just a thing you do, it's a lifestyle. The show aired 2010-2012.
TLC
"Hoarding: Buried Alive"

Ever looked at your bedroom and thought about all the extra stuff you should probably get rid of? Maybe it's that kitchen drawer that is too full to open, or your garage doubles as a storage unit. "Hoarding" takes all of that to the next level. Some of the houses pictured on the show literally don't have walking space. The show began in 2010.
TLC
"Mall Cops: Mall of America"

No, this isn't Paul Blart. This show follows the trials and tribulations of being a mall cop at the Mall of America, the country's largest mall. The show only lasted one season, 2009-2010.
TLC
"My Five Wives"

TLC loves shows about polygamy and large families. "My Five Wives" is exactly what it sounds like -- it follows the life of Brady Williams and his five wives. The show only lasted two seasons, 2013-2014.
TLC
"Honey, We're Killing the Kids"

This show is about parents who are teaching such bad habits that it's predicted their children will grow up to be unhealthy or worse. The gimmick is that they have four weeks to change their lifestyle. The show only had one season in 2005.
TLC
"Sarah Palin's Alaska"

After getting a taste of being on TV during her vice presidential run, it seems that the Alaska Governor wanted more and had her own reality show for a year. It only lasted one season, though, from 2010-2011.
TLC
"What Not to Wear"

Alright, we've inundated you with one crazy show after the other, but TLC has had some guilty pleasures, too. Who couldn't love watching Stacy London and Clinton Kelly give makeovers to unsuspecting fashion rule-breakers? The show lasted 12 seasons from 2003-2013.
TLC
"Cash Cab"

This might be the best TLC show of them all. It's the game show equivalent of a wholesome meme: Unsuspecting taxi patrons are ambushed with questions to win money on their way to their destination. The show began in 2008.
