Matt Roloff And Caryn Chandler Call Off Engagement

Longtime fans are reeling after Little People, Big World star Matt Roloff announced that he and fiancée Caryn Chandler have officially split, two years after celebrating their engagement. "Life's a continued journey," Matt wrote in an Instagram post on July 22. "And this is the right step for us at this time."

The pair, whose love story had played out in front of millions on the popular TLC reality series, had been dating for years before announcing their engagement in 2023. Their relationship had often been cited as a new beginning for Matt after his divorce from ex Amy Roloff, with whom he also has four grown children. Now 62, Matt is embarking on a new chapter of life, ending his time with Caryn and stressing that the breakup was mutual and amicable. "We remain amicable and will always appreciate the many wonderful memories we have shared," he wrote, conveying a sense of closure and gratitude.

Matt's pledge here to "moving forward with positivity and trust" suggests a man anchored in growth rather than regret. As the Roloff clan has endured its fair share of public highs and lows over the years, from farm feuds to family feuds, this latest development has introduced another twist in the ever-evolving Roloff saga.

While their love story has reached its conclusion, Matt and Caryn's time together will forever be an essential part of their story and that of LPB's flagship series. And with Matt foreshadowing a future centered on personal tranquility, fans can likely expect to see the LPBW patriarch continue his journey, this time, flying solo, but not alone. And so, as he steps back into the big world, the story continues with a sense of strength, self-awareness, and the help and goodwill of those who have been following his journey for decades.
