Korie Robertson on 'Duck Dynasty' revival, secret to Willie marriage
Quack is back. The hit reality series 'Duck Dynasty,' which originally ran for 11 seasons from 2012 to 2017, is back for a revival. Premiering June 1 (9 p.m on A&E) and already renewed for a Season 2, 'Duck Dynasty: The Revival' revisits the Robertson family. 'It's been almost nine years now, and we didn't necessarily think we were going to come back to television,' Korie Robertson, 51, told The Post. But when A&E asked them to return, the Robertsons 'came together and really prayed about it as a family. We were like, 'wow, that feels right.'' 8 Jeb Robertson, Willie, and Si Robertson in 'Duck Dynasty: The Revival.' Bryan Tarnowski/A&E She joked that when the show premiered in 2012, 'We were like 'we're going to be on television' and we got our nails done and put extensions in the hair, the makeup was perfect and all that.' This time around, they're more casual. 'We're kind of like, 'okay, the cameras are in our house.' We're so used to it. So we're walking out having our coffee, and the cameras are there.' 8 Willie Robertson and Korie Robertson attend the 11th Annual K-LOVE Fan Awards at The Grand Ole Opry on May 26, 2024 in Nashville, Tennessee.

The Season 4 premiere scored over 11 million viewers in 2013. The show prioritized 'faith, family, and ducks' and focused on Phil Robertson and his adult sons such as Korie's husband, Willie Robertson. Phil, who had Alzheimer's, passed away at age 79 on May 25. He is not involved in the revival series. The show now centers around Willie, 53, Korie, their six kids — including John Luke Robertson, 29, Rebecca Loflin, 36, Willie Robertson Jr., 23, Bella Robertson-Mayo, 22, Rowdy Robertson, 22, and Sadie, 27 — and their eight grandchildren. 8 Phil Robertson, Jase Robertson, Si Robertson and Willie Robertson from the A&E series, 'Duck Dynasty' in 2013.

After the original show ended, the family scattered, as their kids got married and went to college. 'Four out of our six kids are literally in our neighborhood,' Korie told The Post. 'Willie says he can hit a golf ball and hit any of our kids' houses, which is the greatest blessing. And then we're all working together in the Duck Commander warehouse.' Even more, her office is near Sadie's podcast studio, John Luke's coffee roaster, and the store where Bella works. In the first 'Duck Dynasty,' Korie said that she and Willie were 'the parents, [but are] now the grandparents.' 8 Willie and Korie Robertson on 'Duck Dynasty: The Revival.' Bryan Tarnowski/A&E 'And [the first show] was the time period of our lives where Willie and I both were trying to grow our business,' she explained. 'And now, we're in that next phase of life.' Their kids were in middle school and high school in the earlier seasons. 'So they got to live their teenage lives on television, which was kind of nice that they all wanted to do it again,' she told The Post. 'We were like 'okay, we didn't ruin them by putting them on television as middle schoolers!'' 8 Willie and Korie Robertson in a 2024 Instagram photo. Korie and Willie have been married for 33 years. 'We really grew up together. We are best friends, we work together on the show, and in life and Duck Commander, and all the things we do. So I think respect for one another is really important, and to respect each other's differences,' she said of why their marriage works. They also 'talk through' the hard times. 'Sometimes you can wake up and you realize, 'We're going in different directions.' But noticing that and being intentional about coming back together every single time has been what's been important for us.' 8 Willie and Korie Robertson with their adult children on 'Duck Dynasty: The Revival.'

Bryan Tarnowski/A&E Since her kids have spouses that weren't on the first version of the show, 'we tried to prepare the newbies,' she said. Korie told her sons and daughter in-laws, 'just be prepared for the comments, because you will get that. Not everybody's going to like you, not everybody's gonna like our show. People are going to have opinions about you. That comes with the territory.' 'That is the thing that we've been through, the ones who've done it before. We know what that's like.'

‘Duck Dynasty' Star's Granddaughter Reveals His Final Words
Duck Dynasty's Sadie Robertson has revealed her grandpa's final words. Phil Robertson's death at 79 was announced Sunday by family members after confirming that the reality star had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Sadie, 27, posted a tribute to the Duck Dynasty patriarch on Instagram Sunday night with a series of family photos. She opened with a Bible verse: 'Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.' 'As I was sitting with Papaw Phil today, I thought about this verse… he has already experienced this on earth—going from dead to alive by the power of Christ!' the 27-year-old wrote. 'It was his testimony that changed his life, our families life, and thousands of others. Now he is experiencing it in the fullness. Fully alive in Christ. The new has come,' Sadie added. 'One of the last things he said to me was 'full strength ahead!' Amen!' The Robertson family revealed in December that Phil had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's, his son Jase adding that he had 'some sort of blood disease' that was 'causing problems with his entire body.' 'He's just not doing well, he's really struggling,' Jase said on the Unashamed With the Robertson Family podcast. Phil's daughter-in-law, Korie Robertson, broke the news of his passing in a statement on social media Sunday. 'We celebrate today that our father, husband, and grandfather, Phil Robertson, is now with the Lord,' Korie wrote. 'Thank you for the love and prayers of so many whose lives have been impacted by his life saved by grace, by his bold faith, and by his desire to tell everyone who would listen the Good News of Jesus,' she added. She said that the family was holding a private service, but recognized that 'so many of you love him and have been impacted by his life,' telling fans to keep an eye out for more details about a 'public celebration of his life' soon. Following his death, MAGA also took to social media to mourn the Duck Dynasty star, who was an avid supporter of President Trump, calling him 'caustically brilliant' in 2020. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said that she was 'sorry to hear' about his passing,' and sent 'many prayers to his family.' Right-wing activist and founder of conservative youth group Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk, wrote on X that 'Phil Robertson was an American icon and an inspiring hero to millions of Americans.' 'All the way back in 2013, when the woke era was first getting started, Phil offered a masterclass in how to overcome an attempted cancellation,' he said. 'Phil told GQ magazine he thought homosexuality was sinful. A&E tried to kick him off his own show, but he never apologized or backed down, and A&E soon had to bring him back.' The reality TV star was suspended from the show for nine days after calling homosexuality a sin in 2013. 'Phil was also the rare celebrity who was a proud warrior for the unborn,' Kirk added. Years after creating the Duck Commander hunting company in the '70s with his brother, Si, Phil and his family rose to fame after landing a reality show on the A&E Network in 2012 called Duck Dynasty. By 2013, the series became the most-watched nonfiction cable show in history.

Credit - Patrick Smith—Getty Images 'Don't cry.' That's how Phil Robertson, who found fame and fortune through his hunting-business empire and some controversy but also popularity for his outspoken religious and political beliefs, requested people respond to his death. 'Dance, sing, but don't cry when I die,' he said on a podcast with his son Jase in 2023 after undergoing back surgery. The Duck Dynasty patriarch died at age 79 on Sunday after being diagnosed in 2024 with Alzheimer's disease, his family announced in statements on social media. Phil Robertson's daughter-in-law Korie, who is married to another of Robertson's four sons, Willie, said in a Facebook post on behalf of the family: 'We celebrate today that our father, husband, and grandfather, Phil Robertson, is now with the Lord.' She quoted the Bible, writing of Phil Robertson: 'He reminded us often of the words of Paul, 'you do not grieve like those who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.'' 'We know so many of you love him and have been impacted by his life,' the statement added. 'We're having a private service for now, but we'll share details soon about a public celebration of his life.' Jase Robertson posted on X: 'My dad has gone to be with the Lord today! He will be missed but we know he is in good hands, and our family is good because God is very good! We will see him again!' Phil Robertson's granddaughter Sadie Robertson, daughter of Willie and Korie, took to Instagram to pay tribute. 'One of the last things he said to me was 'full strength ahead!' Amen!' Jase first publicly spoke about his father's Alzheimer's diagnosis, which he said was in its 'early stages,' in a December episode of their podcast Unashamed With the Robertson Family. 'According to the doctors, they're sure that he has some sort of blood disease that's causing all kinds of problems,' Jase said. 'He's just not doing well. He's really struggling.' In an April 2 episode, Jase gave an update, saying that his father's status was 'not good' and that he has since needed 'some professional care.' Robertson, a Louisiana-based college football player turned professional hunting entrepreneur, invented the Duck Commander duck call instrument in 1972 that went on to be the namesake product of a multimillion-dollar hunting gear company led by Robertson and his family. Beginning in 1987, the family business extended into media with the direct-to-video series Duckmen. In 2012, A&E began airing what would become one of its most-famous programs, Duck Dynasty, which through 2017 followed the Robertson family and their business. The reality-television series has spawned a number of spinoffs, including Duck Dynasty: The Revival, which is set to center on Willie and Korie and their children and is expected to premiere this summer. Robertson has also gained popularity for being unapologetic about his Christian faith and conservative views. In 2013, Robertson was briefly suspended by A&E after telling GQ when he was asked to describe sin: 'Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there.' He added: 'We never, ever judge someone on who's going to heaven, hell. That's the Almighty's job. We just love 'em, give 'em the good news about Jesus—whether they're homosexuals, drunks, terrorists. We let God sort 'em out later, you see what I'm saying?' Robertson has also been vocal about abortion, which he opposed, and he endorsed Republican candidates for local and national political office, including first backing Ted Cruz in 2016 before announcing his support for Donald Trump in 2016 and again in 2020. 'He loved Jesus & he was utterly fearless,' Sen. Cruz (R, Texas) said in a post on X remembering Robertson. President Donald Trump's son Don Jr., an avid hunter, posted on Instagram a photo with Robertson, whom he called 'an absolute legend.' Trump Jr. shared an anecdote about meeting with Robertson. 'It's something I'll never forget,' he said. 'My condolences to Jase, [Willie] and the entire Robertson family our thoughts and prayers are with you. R.I.P.' Robertson is survived by his wife since 1966 Marsha 'Miss Kay' Carroway; his sons Alan, Jase, Willie, and Jep; his daughter from another relationship Phyllis; his brother and 'best friend' Silas; and a number of grandchildren as well as many friends and supporters. Since his passing was announced, social media sites have seen an outpouring of tributes for Robertson, particularly from politicians as well as conservative-media and religious figures. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R, La.) posted on X: 'We're praying for the Robertson family tonight & grateful for the extraordinary legacy of one of Louisiana's favorite sons. We can't know this side of Heaven how countless many people were impacted for eternity by Phil's life & ministry.' Republican Gov. Jeff Landry of Louisiana posted on X a photo of him with Robertson, whom he called 'one of a kind' and 'simply irreplaceable.' 'Phil Robertson was a living example of what God can do in all of our lives if we follow Him,' Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders of Arkansas, who previously served as White House press secretary during Trump's first term, posted on X. 'He was a bright light for the world to see. Bryan and I are praying for the whole Robertson crew tonight.' Rep. Chip Roy (R, Texas) also paid tribute to Robertson on X: 'Phil is what makes America great. Faith in Jesus, hard work, happiness, family, and love of freedom. My daughter said 'Mr. Robertson was our childhood!' Indeed. God bless you and your great family.' Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R, Ga.) extended her condolences too. 'I'm sorry to hear that Phil Robertson passed away,' Greene said in a post on X. 'Many prayers for his family.' Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson and his wife Candy, in a statement on X, described Robertson as 'a man of deep faith, bold conviction, and unwavering love for his family.' Alongside a photo and anecdote, the statement added: 'He was an American original who never backed down from the truth. His legacy of faith, family, and freedom will live on.' 'Phil Robertson was an American icon and an inspiring hero to millions of Americans,' said Turning Point USA founder and CEO Charlie Kirk in a lengthy tribute shared on X. 'He was the real deal,' posted conservative radio host Eric Metaxas. 'He was a breath of fresh air in a world that desperately needed more authenticity,' posted Blaze News host Jill Savage. 'Legends never die,' posted conservative YouTuber Benny Johnson, alongside a video of a short speech Robertson gave at a Trump rally in 2019. Jim Daly, president of the Christian, socially-conservative organization Focus on the Family, said in a statement shared on X that Robertson's death represents 'the glorious beginning of the eternal life he so fervently and faithfully preached and proclaimed.' 'We mourn his passing but celebrate his liberation from this world and all its challenges, including his Alzheimer's disease,' Daly added. 'Phil helped build a sporting empire and a 'dynasty' that seemed to focus on duck calls and other hunting products. In reality, Phil was more interested in calling all of us sinners to forge a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. He saw the family of faith in the Lord as the one true dynasty that would never falter or fail.' Franklin Graham, the president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and president of the humanitarian aid organization Samaritan's Purse, posted on X: 'Please join me in praying for Miss Kay and all of the Robertson family as Phil Robertson has passed away. Now he is in the presence of his Lord and Savior. I always appreciated that Phil stood firm with the Word of God and took every opportunity to talk about his faith in Jesus Christ. … There's no question, he will be greatly missed.' The Louisiana Tech University football program also shared a tribute to its alum, who in the late 1960s played as starting quarterback over the future NFL hall-of-famer Terry Bradshaw. 'We are saddened to learn of the passing of former LA Tech quarterback, Phil Robertson. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Robertson family during this time,' the team's X account shared alongside a photo of its pair of former stars. (Robertson has said that he turned down an offer during his junior year to go play for the Washington then-Redskins, often retelling that he chose a life of chasing ducks instead of chasing bucks.) On Reddit, users described Robertson as 'an absolute pioneer' and a role model. 'Such a life,' commented one user, 'he chose passion over money. And in the end, found the money. RIP.'
