Little People, Big World is set to return for its 25th season, promising viewers an inside look into the lives of the Roloff family as they navigate various changes. In an exclusive first look from PEOPLE, the trailer reveals some exciting and, at times, challenging moments for the Roloffs.
The trailer opens with adorable scenes of Zach and Tori Roloff's children, enjoying their playful and lively antics. As the young ones dodge giraffe tongues, drive toy tractors, and surprise their mom with foliage resembling a snake, Zach confesses that their household is quite hectic with three kids. With lots of energy and constant activity, he admits it's not always peaceful.
Meanwhile, Amy Roloff finds herself dealing with her own share of stress as she tries to plan a fundraiser alongside her husband, Chris Marek, as well as her ex-husband, Matt Roloff, and his fiancée, Caryn Chandler. Concerned that Matt might take charge, Amy asserts that she's the one running the show and declares that things will be done her way. However, tensions rise between the exes as Amy becomes reluctant to compromise on her vision for the event.
Matt reflects on Amy's management style, claiming that she can go from a micromanager to a dictator quicker than him. In a joint confessional, he mentions that Amy isn't known for being apologetic. With the news of Matt and Caryn's engagement, both of them express anxiety about how their family members will react. Matt wonders whether Amy will be awkward or accepting of their relationship.
As Amy asks to see Caryn's engagement ring, the camera captures the anticipation in Matt's eyes, unsure of what to expect from his ex-wife's reaction. However, it turns out that Amy is not the only one Matt should be concerned about. In his own confessional, Zach chooses to remain silent about his thoughts on Matt and Caryn's plans to get married. Matt and Caryn reveal that they don't see Zach and Tori frequently, leaving them feeling somewhat cut off from the family dynamic.
Caryn expresses her discomfort with the situation, explaining that she isn't used to being excluded. This leads Matt to ponder over the strained relationship with his son and daughter-in-law, wondering if their absence from the farm is intentional. Amy questions how long their relationship can remain broken, while Zach shares his perspective on putting the family first, implying that it hasn't always been a priority for his father.
The trailer takes a somber turn when it unveils Zach's emergency hospital trip, as he underwent an emergency shunt revision in February 2023. Tori shares her concern, revealing that she had never seen Zach in so much pain. He cried and even feared for his life. Amy emphasizes the seriousness of the situation, acknowledging that any surgical procedure is significant, while Tori reflects on the unknown danger they had been living with.
These glimpses into the new season of Little People, Big World offer a taste of the emotional rollercoaster the Roloff family will experience. From playful and challenging moments with the children to tension between Amy and Matt, and the uncertainty surrounding Zach's health, viewers can expect a mix of heartwarming and heart-wrenching stories.
Be sure not to miss the premiere of Season 25 on Tuesday, February 20th, at 9 p.m. ET on TLC.
