Little Couple fans are divided after Dr Jen Arnold & Bill Klein treat daughter Zoey, 11, to $1K toy
LITTLE Couple fans are divided after Dr. Jen Arnold and Bill Klein gifted their daughter Zoey, 11, a $1K gift for Christmas.
Last week, Jen, 47, took to Instagram with a clip of her two children unwrapping their Christmas gifts.
The Instagram video showed the proud parents, as well as son Will, 12, showing off his new LEGO Harry Potter building set.
However, Zoey, 11, tore into her gift and stared at it in confusion.
The young girl believed it was a “kid’s toilet” based on the image and shape on the external packaging.
Jen and Bill Klein, 47, burst out laughing over Zoey’s reaction to the gift, which was not what it appeared to be.
“It’s not a toilet, but rather a robot,” Jen explained in the caption. “Hope you found some time for funny this #holiday.”
As Jen indicated, the “toilet” was indeed no place to relieve oneself, but a $1k children’s robot!
“So much [sic] presents,” one fan wrote. “They are spoiled. Very spoiled.”
Another raged: “Why so many gifts completed spoiled rotten!!!”
“Too many gifts!” another commented.
Meanwhile, other fans came to Jen and Bill’s rescue.
“They have high-paying jobs and work hard,” one indignant fan wrote. “They can afford to give their kids nice things.”
HELPING HAND
Last month, Jen made an exciting announcement about an upcoming career move.
The TLC star took to Instagram to announce she was working on a podcast in tandem with Boston Children’s Hospital.
According to Jen, the podcast will help parents, kids, and families learn more about “how to stay healthy.”
“We will launch after the New Year so please share with me what pediatric health topics you’d like to hear about,” she said.
Fans praised Jen for her new hosting gig.
“Congrats friend! So happy and excited for you!” one fan commented.
Another added: “Best idea ever. Our children should always come first.”
Others, however, wondered about the future of Little Couple, as new episodes of the reality series have not been seen since 2019.
EXTENDED HIATUS
Fans have been eagerly awaiting new episodes of Little Couple.
Though the family appears to be keeping busy, there’s been no news regarding whether the show will return in the near future.
In July, the U.S. Sun reported that Discovery Communications renewed the trademark for The Little Couple on March 14, 2022.
However, the show has remained off the air since 2019.
Neither Jen nor Bill have confirmed anything about the series’ possible return thus far.
The lengthy hiatus could be related to Jen and Bill’s expensive lawsuit with their producers.
Luckily, the family has been working on a variety of projects in the meantime, though fans do seem to be dearly missing watching them on TV.
