Isabel and Jacob Roloff Off-the-Grid Lifestyle

Since leaving Little People, Big World, Jacob Roloff has become extremely outspoken on social media. He often posts about social justice issues, particularly equal pay and housing issues. Isabel Roloff is equally outspoken about causes she believes in.

The well-suited pair married in 2019. Jacob recently discovered a hidden childhood connection between his wife and the TLC show. For a time, the couple traveled the Pacific coast with nothing but their dogs and their van. Fans even wonder if they plan to raise the baby in the van life.

Isabel Roloff answered that question and continues interacting with her followers about her pregnancy.

Given their desire for a more natural living, does Isabel Roloff plan a hospital birth or a more natural delivery? She may have given a hint on a recent Instagram Stories slide. The mom-to-be shared a photo of a birth center. She wrote that she toured the center in anticipation of her impending bundle of joy.

The sunlit room includes a cushy green chair along with a dresser and well-stocked medicine/towel cabinet. Most notably in the photo, though, is the huge tub in the middle of the room.
