Amy Roloff and Chris Marek got engaged on their third anniversary. Amy could not control her emotions and she knew she had to break the news to her children. She decided to tell Zachary Roloff and his wife Tori Patton by meeting them face to face. Amy was worried about how they would react and if Zachary was ready to hear that she was getting married again. 

Despite this, she did not want to hide the news anymore. Once she reached their place, Tori did not beat around the bush and revealed that Chris popped the question on their anniversary dinner date. Tori was left surprised and looked at Zachary to see how he was doing with the news. 

Zachary seemed shocked and the news left him speechless. Tori decided to break the awkwardness by asking about her ring. Amy was happy to show off her ring while adding that they were planning a wedding in 2021. Speaking to the camera, Zachary finally spoke about the reason why he had been silent. 

He revealed he had asked his parents for one thing and that was not to break such news in front of the camera, but Amy had failed to remember that. He admitted they had been filming for the past 15 years and had used this time to show their highs and lows but this was that one thing he did not want to find out while being filmed. 

Fortunately, Amy remembered this soon after and decided to apologize to Zachary for what had happened.  She admitted that she had forgotten the one thing that Zachary had wanted her to do. Zachary decided to move on and said he was happy about the change. He got a better idea of how things were when he spoke to his father, Matt Roloff, about it. 

Matt tried to explain to Zachary how Chris was the perfect person for Amy. Zachary felt happy that Matt was supportive of the change in Amy's life. Looking at how Matt reacted, Zachary understood that the new step in her life is good news and he too looked forward to Amy starting a new life with Chris. 

'Little People, Big World' airs on Tuesdays at 9 pm ET on TLC.
