She lost her 60-year partner.\u201d<\/p>\n
One of the most difficult periods of Miss Kay Robertson\u2019s life is currently underway. She is the adored matriarch of the Duck Dynasty family. She is quietly battling her own health issues while mourning the loss of her husband, Phil Robertson.<\/p>\n
In an open interview, Willie Robertson, her son, revealed that his mother was not in the best of health. \u201cWe\u2019re doing everything we can to support her.\u201d<\/p>\n
The devastating news was released just a few weeks after Phil passed away on May 25 from Alzheimer\u2019s disease. He was seventy-nine.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe Lost Her 60-Year Partner\u201d
\nKnown to fans for her distinctive Southern charm and unshakable faith, Miss Kay was conspicuously missing from the June 1 premiere party of Duck Dynasty: The Revival in Monroe, Louisiana.<\/p>\n
Willie claims that her absence went beyond a simple physical one.<\/p>\n
He clarified, \u201cSome of it is, she is just depressed.\u201d \u201cShe lost her 60-year partner.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite appearing in the early Duck Dynasty reboot episodes, Kay was reportedly unable to participate in the later ones due to her deteriorating health.<\/p>\n
A Family Shaken by a Scare
\nIn April, worries about Miss Kay\u2019s health initially arose. On the Unashamed podcast, her son Jase Robertson disclosed that she had fallen and contracted an infection that was severe enough to necessitate hospitalization.<\/p>\n
At the time, Jase acknowledged, \u201cWe were sort of dealing with the fact that maybe this is it.\u201d<\/p>\n
He also disclosed that Kay has spent time in a care facility affectionately called \u201cKay\u2019s Kingdom,\u201d where she is surrounded by friends and family, and that she now requires round-the-clock professional care.<\/p>\n
He revealed, \u201cMy mom is not doing well physically.\u201d \u201cBut we\u2019re trying our best to lift her spirits.\u201d<\/p>\n
Phil, Faith, and Family
\nKay found strength in her children\u2019s company, even as she deteriorated. Prior to his death, Phil informed the family that their encouragement was boosting her spirits. In exchange, she was assisting him.<\/p>\n
The Robertson family as a whole found strength in the couple\u2019s unbreakable bond, which they had developed over 60 years.<\/p>\n
After his father passed away, Willie wrote a heartfelt ode to him that read, \u201cHe was the Real Deal.\u201d \u201cSundays are the same as Fridays.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am grateful that you brought me up properly and taught me the most valuable lesson to help me prepare for the day you departed.\u201d<\/p>\n
The return of the Duck Dynasty, but without its patriarch
\nFollowing the lives of Willie, his wife Korie, their children John Luke, Sadie, Will, Bella, and Rebecca, as well as a growing number of grandchildren, A&E revealed earlier this year that Duck Dynasty would return after an eight-year hiatus.<\/p>\n
The revival is anticipated to offer a more intimate and religious look at the Robertson legacy, even though the original series made TV history with almost 12 million viewers.<\/p>\n
Even though Miss Kay isn\u2019t as prominent on screen this time, the family still values her spirit and her story.<\/p>\n
According to her sons, Kay isn\u2019t doing well. However, Duck Dynasty fans are aware that Miss Kay\u2019s strength is ingrained.<\/p>\n
And she has faith, family, and fierce love all around her right now, which is exactly what she needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
