PORTLAND, OREGON: Matt Roloff's decision to sell the Roloff family farm has caused strong shockwaves amongst the tightly-knit family. The 'Little People, Big World' star's major decision to sell the family farm opened up a can of worms which the Roloff family patriarch didn't anticipate, as it led to a bitter feud with his sons- Zach and Jeremy Roloff. While Matt attempts to rebuild the fast-deteriorating relationship with his sons, it's his girlfriend Caryn Chandler who is paying the price for it.

According to reports, Matt's longtime girlfriend, Caryn, is "completely done" with the show as the tensions among the Roloff family members continue to escalate with each passing day. While there have been plenty of fights and family drama within the Roloff family, since they made their tv debut back in 2006, the recent tension between Matt and his sons- Zach and Jeremy, is like nothing the TLC show's fans have seen before. The trailer for ongoing season 24 featured Zach dubbing the family farm as a "hostile environment," while also revealing that his wife Tori he had no plans of introducing their newborn son Josiah to meet Caryn! After watching the growing distance between Matt and his sons, as well as her tension with Zach's wife Tori, Caryn has reportedly decided to quit the TLC show.

Although neither Caryn nor TLC made any formal announcement about her exit from the show, several sources close to the Roloff family revealed that she is determined to leave the show. A source told The US Sun, "Matt really wants another season, but Caryn is completely done." "She thinks there are too many disagreements with what they want to say and do on air, and too much family drama. She feels as though she's the one always caught in the middle trying to mediate. Although she knows it probably makes for good ratings, she doesn't want to be a part of it anymore," the source revealed. 

Thanks to Matt rejecting Zach's offer to purchase the Roloff Farm, Caryn's relationship with Zach's wife Tori soured over it. "Caryn and Tori are definitely not as close as they used to be," the source added. "And the feud between the sons has been a lot. Caryn is ready to just have Matt hand the farm over and they can go to Arizona and retire," explained the source. 

The 54-year-old, who began dating Matt in 2017, after working as his assistant, initially enjoyed being featured on the TLC show. As her relationship with Matt continued to get more serious, Caryn began receiving more camera time. Unfortunately for her, 'Little People, Big World' fans didn't take to her. Fans viewed her as a homewrecker and blamed her for Matt and Amy Roloff's divorce, while also slamming her for her overt involvement in the Roloff family affairs despite neither being engaged nor married to Matt. 

While Caryn is ready to turn a new page in her life away from the cameras, her boyfriend Matt is yet to decide on his future. The Roloff family patriarch recently decided against selling the Roloff Farm and turn it into a rental instead. Though TLC hasn't yet picked 'Little People, Big World' for Season 25 yet, Caryn is leaving it to Matt to decide whether he wants to continue being on the show or not. The course shared, "She's letting Matt decide whether or not he wants to do another season. She is okay with whatever he decides. He respects her decision to quit, and they are talking things through together."

'Little People, Big World' Season 24 every Tuesday at 8/9c on TLC.
