Tori Roloff Makes Devastating Family Announcement

Potential Consequences

Zach and Tori had been dating for four years when Zach finally proposed. The answer was a resounding yes even though Tori knew starting a life and family with Zach was going to present some challenges.

Tough Tori was aware of these challenges, she had no idea how big the dangers and obstacles would be. She even said in an interview that she thought the couple's story was pretty unique. Exciting and terrifying all at once.

Let’s Try

Once the couple tied the knot, they began to talk about starting a family. Both Tori and Zach were adamant that they wanted to build a family, but both were very honest about the risk that this entailed.

They knew that the chance of health complications was there, but even with that, they decided the risk was worth the reward. So the couple began trying to get pregnant. This, however, was the first step on a long and tumultuous road.

First Child

It didn't take long for the two to find out that they were expecting. Nine months after Tori Roloff gave birth and became a mom for the very first time. This was an exciting event in her and Zach's life. Like any other couple, they were nervous about raising a child.

But unlike many of their friends and family that had already brought life into the world, they had more to worry about.

Genetic Traits

Zach and several of his family all live with dwarfism, and this brings extra difficulties to surmount. Not only with daily activities but with their health. Zach himself had to go through many surgeries as he grew up.

Genetic Traits

His dad, Matthew, requires even more attention due to the form of dwarfism he was born with. Zach's mom Amy on the other hand, hasn't had as many health concerns as the two men. Even with all that, though, it is incredible the amount of and type of work they were able to manage.

In the Beginning

Tori Roloff went to work on the family farm, and it wasn't long before the fans of the show felt that she and Zach were the perfect couple. Eventually, Zach agreed, and four months after Tori started working there, he asked her out.

In the Beginning

She clearly said yes, and after dating for just a short period, Tori knew she had found her Prince Charming. But she had no idea the hurdles that this fairytale romance would bring into her life.
