Amy Roloff from Little People, Big World recently remarried, and fans are criticizing her for not changing her last name. Amy tied the knot with Chris Marek in August of 2021. Previously, Amy was married to Matt Roloff for over 20 years before they decided to call it quits. Matt has also moved on and found love with his girlfriend, Caryn Chandler. Fans were excited to see Amy find happiness again, but they couldn't help but notice that her last name has stayed the same.
Amy and Chris had a beautiful wedding in Helvetia, Oregon, on the Roloff family farm. It meant a lot to Amy to have her wedding on the farm since she had so many happy moments there. This was her opportunity to create new memories with Chris and the rest of her family. There were some ups and downs with planning the wedding, even down to whom the guest list would include. Even though Amy and Matt are still on good terms, they both decided it would be best if he and his girlfriend Caryn didn't attend. Amy and Matt have four children together, and their divorce was heartbreaking for the family. Viewers have followed the Roloff family through their highs and lows for 22 seasons and are deeply invested in their story.
It was thrilling for fans to see that the divorce was handled amicably, and the family still stayed intact. When Amy announced the news of her engagement to Chris, it was met with support and encouragement. After the wedding, fans started to notice that Amy did not take Chris' last name. This particular detail frustrated and confused fans and left them wondering why she chose to keep the Roloff name. There is still a lot to know about Chris Marek, but it is clear that he and Amy are in love. Amy recently shared heartwarming photos on Instagram from her wedding and captioned the post, "What a year. Best day in 2021!" Many fans congratulated Amy and commented on what a beautiful bride she was. However, many couldn't get past why the Little People, Big World star decided to keep her ex-husband's last name.
One user wrote, "Why is your last name still Roloff when you married Chris??" Another irritated fan commented on the post, commenting, "Pretty dress. But, the ex-husband's last name has to go if you want to move on. You are not a Roloff anymore." Amy declined to respond to the inquisitive and opinionated comments. Aside from being a reality tv star, Amy is also an entrepreneur, author, philanthropist, and inspirational speaker. Since she has so many successful endeavors, it is probably easier to keep the Roloff name.
It is still unknown if Amy will eventually change her last name down the line, but for now, it looks as if she and Chris do not have a problem with it. However, it could be an issue for Caryn if Matt decides to eventually pop the question. Little People, Big World season 23 is set to premiere next month, and fans are eager to see what the new season has in store.
