LPBW’s Caryn Chandler ‘refuses’ to live on Roloff Farms as she ‘doesn’t want to be reminded’ of Matt’s ex-wife Amy
LITTLE People, Big World’s Caryn Chandler refuses to live on boyfriend Matt Roloff’s farm until he completes their dream home – because she doesn’t want to be reminded of his ex-wife Amy.
The 53-year-old star, who was Matt‘s personal assistant for many years before they got together following his divorce, has purchased a new house in Oregon after putting her old one up for sale.

A source revealed: “Caryn and Matt have been through a lot since his divorce from Amy.
“She would love to live on the farm but has made it clear she does not want to live in Amy‘s old house and wants Matt to finish their dream home.
“Caryn wants a fresh start and doesn’t want to fill Amy’s shoes by being in the house they shared together.

Matt previously shared a photo of his dream house design on the Oregon family farm on Instagram earlier this month – after his ex-wife finally moved off the property.
He captioned a series of snaps: “After a very productive 3 weeks back at the farm… logs are prepped for new cabin, lawns all fertilized and mowed, new employees hired and trained for summer season, goats and sheep groomed and happy, big house cleaned and painted, birthdays celebrated, grandkids played with… fields plowed.
“New house designed with permits submitted. Farm is under control. New Covid cleaning procedures in place.
“Now time to catch my breath before real summer work begins.”

One fan commented underneath: “Many of us have been through the same sadness and had to start over, alone or with a new partner.
“The new husband or wife never wants the old. Congratulations on all your projects.”
Another shared: “Caryn and you deserve to be happy!! Congratulations.”
Matt’s ex Amy has now moved off the property after receiving a pay out [/caption]Caryn, who has been dating Matt for four years, has made no secret of the fact she doesn’t want to live in the large home vacated by his ex-wife last October.
On the Little People, Big World season premiere in March, Caryn told the cameras: “I would never live in the big house. Ever. Put a pin in that.”
Matt, 59, laughed nervously at the comment, while she rolled her eyes.
His divorce from Amy, the mother of his four children Jeremy, Zachary, Molly and Jacob, was finalized in May 2016 after thirty years of marriage.
