LPBW fans watch as Caryn and Matt Roloff crumble to tears
The most recent episode of Little People, Big World was hard for fans to watch as the series has finally caught up to the sudden and unexpected passing of Matt Roloff’s father. Sadly, fans watched as both Matt and his girlfriend Caryn broke down as they grieved the sudden passing of Ronald.
During a very emotional confessional, Matt Roloff opened up about losing his father: “Caryn and I were down in Arizona cause my dad was getting more and more ill.”
Matt Roloff became so choked up with emotion that he struggled to speak as Caryn sat beside him wiping tears away.
After putting up a very good fight for several weeks, he finally succumbed to his lung issues and he passed away peacefully.”
In a different scene, Matt Roloff sat down to have a discussion with Caryn. He admitted he was happy they left when they did so he could be with his father at the end of his fight. Matt Roloff admitted the end of his father’s fight was unpredictable and hard to watch. There were moments when he was sure his father was going to get up and walk out. Times when he was sure his father was fine. And, at times, he was terrified he was about to pass away.
Caryn Chandler agreed with her emotional boyfriend describing it as a “rollercoaster.”
Came at a difficult time for the family
Things aren’t exactly great for the Roloff family right now. As fans know, announcing his father’s death was the first time Matt had surfaced on Instagram since the Season Finale of the previous season of LPBW aired on television. Matt had received so much backlash because of the feud with Zach and his decision to put some of the property on the market, that fans speculated he just couldn’t show his face on social media out of shame.
All of Matt Roloff’s children (including the ones not still on the show) did mourn the passing of their grandfather in their own way. Some of his children with public social media profiles were more vocal about the passing than others.

Rest in peace, Ronald James Roloff a.k.a. Papa.
