“I’m in the minority here but this did actually shock me. I thought the Clark’s had really set them up with a loving stable family life in NJ that Katie did seem to have settled into. Guessing another pregnancy is imminent if not already.”
“I agree, I would not have been surprised by this at all in 2022 but I am surprised it’s happening now. Guessing Katie will join BSB officially.”
“Have they specifically said if they’re moving to Rocky Top? With them just saying “Tennessee” I wonder they’re actually moving to Nashville or somewhere other than Rocky Top.”
“After all that work on their house.. this is so surprising! I wonder if they plan on renting that house out and becoming “landlords” instead of selling.”
