No escape from reality. During a tropical vacation, Amy and Matt Roloff spar over their divorce proceedings in Little People, Big World’s Tuesday, June 28, episode, as seen in Us Weekly‘s exclusive sneak peek.
The TLC unscripted series’ preview clip shows the family having dinner at a beachside restaurant when Matt shocks Amy by asking her if she has checked in with her attorney lately. The pair’s divorce was filed in 2015 and finalized in May 2016, although they continue to operate their farm together.
“Were you able to get that email out?” Matt, 54, asks. A clearly annoyed Amy, 51, replies, “You’re going to ask me that question right now? Yes, I sent the email to my lawyer, yep.”
She adds to the camera, “Out of the blue, Matt asked me, ‘Oh, are you going to send an email to our divorce lawyers?’ And I don’t know, it just threw me for a loop, and I just didn’t think it was really a question or a conversation we really needed to have, right now and right here.”
For his part, Matt doesn’t think it’s inappropriate to stay focused on such an important matter.
“Even when I’m on vacation half a globe away, it’s still hard for me to separate business from personal,” he tells the camera. “This divorce is business right now, and there’s lawyers back there working on it.”
“And even though we’re here enjoying it, we still got to keep the ball rolling back home,” Matt adds.
Watch the tense clip in the video above.
Little People, Big World airs on TLC Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET.
