"Duck Dynasty” on A & E has been successful beyond what anyone could have imagined, and the most popular cast member of all is Si Robertson. Fame always has its price, especially in reality TV. Uncle Si's wife, Christine Robertson, expressed on her Facebook on April 1 that she is really feeling the pressure of their new life in the spotlight.
She posted that this is supposed to be their golden years, but she saw Uncle Si more when he was in the military. She described their "Duck Dynasty" time as a bumpy ride that she was ready to get off!
Things have not been easy for Si Robertson and his wife since they became more famous than most movie stars. They just live normal, ordinary lives in a normal, ordinary home, but the problem is that things are just not normal anymore.
Uncle Si’s wife described people coming to the door and knocking around 7:40 a.m. Reality stars have the disadvantage that anyone can figure out where they live and just show up. They are in the process of tearing down their home and building another one on the same spot. Their daughter suggested it would just be better to move altogether so the craziness would stop because nobody would know where they lived.
Christine Robertson shared on her Facebook a few weeks ago about going into her kitchen and having to drop to the floor because someone was snapping photos through the kitchen window. There is already talk of a privacy fence going up to stop this sort of thing.
Sadly, these are such good, family people that they feel compelled to be hospitable when someone shows up. Although Si Robertson’s wife chose not to be on the program for whatever unknown reason, her whole life is now upside down with the chaos from “Duck Dynasty.”
A reminder to fans: You should imagine what it would feel like to be a goldfish in a bowl. If you want to interact with stars, the best way to do that is on Twitter or Facebook where it is less threatening.
