Little People Big World star Matt Roloff was slammed by fans for his “a-hole” behavior with his ex-wife Amy Roloff in the latest episode of their hit TLC series.
The 58-year-old reality star had a heated argument with his nearly 30-year-old wife over a wall he built to divide the Roloff farm into two separate properties after their divorce.
After their separation in 2016, Amy and Matt divided their assets – including the family farm – equally after she accepted the acquisition of her ex.
An anxious Matt called the project “symbolic” when the construction pieces arrived on their land.
“This is a very exciting day for me. You can’t imagine how long I’ve waited to build this fence.” It’s an ex-wife situation,” he enthusiastically told the construction worker.
The next door neighbor, Amy Roloff, came over to inspect the renovation and the previous couple immediately started arguing.
“This is Matt’s wall, don’t go over it because you’re on his property now and you better watch out! “Let’s hope this don’t turn into the Hatfields and the McCoys,” fired Amy.
The duo then started arguing over the correct terminology for the “flag lot” and the “neck” of their property – and Matt Roloff was adamant that he was right. “Every time Amy and I meet, it always starts out very cordially, then she gets defensive.
“The fact that we’re even discussing it shows why we don’t work well together,” he said. Amy Roloff struggled too. “It’s just that I have a hard time dealing with someone who’s always negotiating with her.
“I think by not having a relationship with Matt, I’m learning to find my own voice and be more confident,” she said. “Out with the old and in with the new and that’s what this wall represents,” Matt concluded.
Fans blew the TLC star away because of the way he talked to his ex-wife.
A Twitter user asked: “A**hole Matt, Amy is moving away, why do you need a wall? “Matt is making it very difficult for him to continue to like me. The “wall” is a “hole” move, someone wrote.
Another upset fan said, “I don’t like Matt. He’s a manipulator and he needs constant recognition and praise. “He really likes to have his ego stroked and he’s found the perfect woman to do it.” “Matt is so mean to Amy. Let’s hope he doesn’t act this way towards her in front of her grandchildren,” one bystander said.
In tonight’s episode of LPBW, Amy revealed she made an offer for a house that was soon approved. The mother of four children moved out of Roloff Farms in December 2019 after 30 years of ownership.
I can’t believe how ugly Amy is when it comes to Matt. She treats him so badly. She is with Chris. Matt is with Caryn. Just get along for goodness sake. You don’t love Matt, but you have to coexist
for your children and grandchildren. If I was Chris I’d think twice before I went all in with Amy. The way she treats one will carry over to the way she treats another. Matt May have talked ugly to Amy, but he’s taken her crap long enough.
I don’t blame Matt, were divorced I’d like my privacy from her and the public eye. don’t take it personal and why should she has a fiance. Amy act’s like she still has feelings for her ex!
I don’t blame Matt I’d put up a fence
to from Amy and the public prying eyes. The way Amy carries on you would thing she still had feelings for her ex.
It takes 2 to tango. It’s quite apparent that Matt and Caryn were close before the divorce. I used to think it was Amy’s fault that they broke up. My apologies Amy. Before she met Chris, well, and even after, the anguish on Amy’s face was heartbreaking. I’m so proud for Amy. She has risen from the ashes and is making a life for herself and Chris.
I do wish Caryn and Matt well, but I don’t think Caryn will stick with him, because he is too controlling.
Congrats, Amy and Chris, for taking your time to know one another, before you went all in.
Matt shows no care and regard to the woman who helped him get where he is today.
The ugliness needs to stop.
Everyone try to get along, and like people say, Matt , if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.
Mat is not nice Amy. He puts her down every time he opens his mouth I wish he would not do that. He has hurt her and he doesn’t see it. Mat needs to take a good look at his self .
