Zach Roloff and wife Tori Roloff had a TLC crossover moment when they met Jinger Vuolo (née Duggar) and husband Jeremy Vuolo.
“Finally! We meet in person!!” Tori, 33, wrote alongside a selfie of the two couples posted via her Instagram Stories, tagging Zach, 35, Jinger, 31, and Jeremy, 37, in the post.
Shortly after Tori uploaded the photo, Jinger reshared the post to her own Instagram Stories and wrote, “It was the best having you all here!”
Neither Tori nor Jinger explained why the couples got together, though it sounds like the Roloffs traveled to California to see the Vuolos. It’s possible that Tori and Zach met up to appear on the “Jinger & Jeremy Podcast,” though fans will have to wait and see if that was the reason for their visit.
It will likely surprise fans that Tori and Zach have not met Jinger and Jeremy until the recent meeting, as both couples starred on TLC shows for several years. While Jinger and Jeremy both starred on 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On alongside her family until the second show was canceled in 2021, Tori and Zach starred on Little People, Big World alongside his family until they left the series after season 25.
“Let’s just talk about the elephant in the room. Are we coming back to Little People, Big World?” Tori said during a February 2024 episode of their “Raising Heights” podcast. Zach then replied, “We are not. We made that pretty clear the last cycle.”
She continued, “I don’t think it’s been officially announced to people like we are not coming back to Little People, Big World. We are done. That part in our lives, that chapter has closed.”
While Tori and Zach made the decision to leave LPBW, Jinger and Jeremy remained on Counting On until the show was canceled following her brother Josh Duggar’s arrest on child pornography charges.
Jinger recalled learning that the show was canceled during a call from the network. “When the call ended, I wrapped my arms around Jeremy and cried. Hard,” she wrote in her January 2023 memoir Becoming Free Indeed. “So many emotions poured out of me that day. I felt sad.”
“Filming had been a constant in my life since I was around 10 years old. When the show was on break, and the crews didn’t come around for a few months, I missed the energy and excitement of interacting with all the creative people,” the former reality star continued. “The producers worked with my family to come up with ideas for episodes. It was fun to think of creative ways to give audiences a glimpse into our day-to-day lives.”
Jinger went on to admit that she was “surprised” her family’s shows lasted as long as they did. “In the early years, my family assumed the show would last no more than a season or two. It didn’t seem possible that that many Americans would be interested in a family with our conservative values,” she said in the memoir. “Yet each year, TLC renewed the show. For most of my life, that wasn’t a burden.”
