7 Years After Sweet Home Sextuplets: Where the Waldrop Family Is Today

It’s been seven years since TLC viewers first met the Waldrop family on Sweet Home Sextuplets. The show may have ended, but life in the Waldrop household hasn’t slowed down—not even a little. Courtney and Eric Waldrop are still raising one of America’s most talked-about big families, and fans continue searching for updates on how the sextuplets and their older brothers are doing now.

From Small-Town Alabama to a National Spotlight

Long before reality TV and viral headlines, Courtney and Eric’s story started in a much simpler way. The two met in middle school, grew up together, and built a relationship centered on faith, family values, and commitment. They married in 2004, dreaming of the kind of full, busy home they’d always wanted.

That dream began taking shape when their first son, Saylor, arrived in 2008. In 2012, their family grew again with the birth of twins Wales and Bridge. But like many parents who face fertility challenges, their path wasn’t always straightforward. The couple experienced emotional setbacks along the way—yet they kept moving forward with hope and determination.

The 2017 Pregnancy That Changed Everything

Then came the moment that put the Waldrops on the map: Courtney learned she was expecting sextuplets. A high-risk pregnancy with six babies is rare, medically complex, and emotionally intense—and it instantly changed the family’s future. What started as a household of five was about to become a family of eleven.
