Little People’s Matt Roloff posts rare pic of daughter Molly as fans praise little seen star for ‘avoiding’ farm drama
MOLLY Roloff has made a rare appearance, after her Little People, Big World father Matt shared a snap of the two.
The only daughter stars Matt and Amy, Molly has been known to stay out of the spotlight.
But on Saturday, she was seen smiling next to her controversial father, as he visited her family.
Matt captioned the photo: “Spent the morning visiting my beautiful daughter Molly and her husband Joel in Spokane Washington.”
While Matt has been embattled in a bitter feud with his sons over the fate of the family farm, Molly, 28, has been praised for staying impartial.
In the comments of the photo, fans shared their thoughts.

“I’m glad Molly is rising above the drama,” one fan wrote. “Everyone is choosing sides, Molly refuses to!”
Another added: “I believe she is the most stable of the whole bunch.
Still one follower speculated if that was the reason she chose to flee the farm in the first place: “She was the first out of all them to move away while the boys stayed close to the farm.”
Although Molly has chosen a quieter life free from reality fanfare, she does occasionally appear in social media posts with her siblings.

In June, 2021 she appeared in photos with Zach Roloff and his wife Tori as they enjoyed a day at the Stoller Family Estate vineyard in Portland, Oregon.
They snapped a sweet photo together, sipping wine and enjoying the day.
Molly and her hubby live in Spokane, Washington, which is seven hours from the family farm.
They also don’t have the social media following of their famous family.
The couple married in 2017, delivering a brief statement about their day: “We feel blessed to have been able to celebrate our marriage surrounded by so many people we love.”
They purchased their first home the following year.
FAMILY FEUD
Meanwhile, Matt is in the midst of a well documented tiff with his boys over the fate of the family farm.
The 60-year-old has been feuding with his twin sons, Zach and Jeremy, both 32, as he was unable to come to a financial agreement over the selling of the farm.
The patriarch put 16 acres of the farm for sale for a whopping $4million on May 12.
The acreage includes the main house that boasts five bedrooms and six bathrooms.
The newly-renovated home also includes a front porch, six-car garage, inground pool and more.
The property also has the famous big red barn, which has a TV production studio, guest suite, farm stand and gift shop.
Other whimsical features on the property include a pirate’s ship, German-inspired medieval castle, trails and bridges.
BUYING THE FARM
On Little People, Big World, Matt has been feuding with his son Zach over the farm after he refused his son’s offers on the property.
The rejection ignited a rift between the pair, which Zach had talked about on the show.
He said: “My dad was definitely encouraging the conversation, [wife] Tori and [Matt’s girlfriend] Caryn [Chandler] came too.”
“The north side is the 30 acres my mom and dad shared, and the whole thing was weird, he starts making excuses… suddenly me and my wife are not good enough to run the farm.
“Whether we don’t have the money, don’t have the skillset… Tori said, ‘It wasn’t cool, I never wanna see someone talk to my husband like that ever.’”
The argument has further caused a divide among the family, as Zach opted to take a step back from his duties at the farm.
Zach and Tori also made the decision to move from their Oregon home to their new $1million abode in Battle Ground, Washington.
SNUBBED SIBLING
The TLC star’s twin brother, Jeremy, made a similar move as he purchased his own farm with his wife, Audrey.
Jeremy previously put in an offer on the property, which Matt also did not accept.

Jeremy’s wife Audrey wrote on Instagram around that time, saying that not buying the farm was the “death of a dream.”
Fans suspected at one point that Matt and his ex-wife Amy’s youngest son Jacob will take over the farm, as he is photographed there often working alongside his father.
