Little person, big news.
Amy Roloff, star of the TLC series “Little People, Big World,” is engaged to her boyfriend Chris Marek, according to People.
Marek proposed Wednesday at one of the couple’s favorite restaurants. “I’m excited, I’m so surprised, I’m thrilled!” Roloff, 55, told People. “I never in a million years thought I’d be getting married again, but I also hoped for it! Now that it’s happening, I couldn’t be happier or more excited.”
This will be Roloff’s second marriage. She was previously married to Matt Roloff; their divorce was finalized in May 2016. The pair share four children: twin brothers Jeremy and Zach, 29, daughter Molly, 26, and son Jacob, 22.
“I just never thought someone who is average size would be interested in me,” Roloff said in a TLC clip from June 2017. “I just really want him to never question or doubt the relationship because I’m a little person.”
“Chris doesn’t express commitment,” she told producers earlier this year. “It’s definitely more of an indirect way, so, you know, I was pleasantly surprised that he is open to marriage,” she added. “I’m not here to push him, I’m not here for him to do something that he is nowhere [near] ready for. But if marriage is meant to happen for me again, the second time, then I would sing ‘Hallelujah.’”
