LITTLE People, Big World’s Amy Roloff and her fiance Chris Marek have been hard at work on renovating their new home together.
The duo are also in the midst of planning their upcoming wedding.
Amy, 55, used to live on the Roloff family farm with her ex-husband Matt, with whom she shares four children — twin sons Jeremy and Zachary, 32, daughter Molly, 26, and son Jacob, 23.
After 30 years of marriage, she and Matt finalized their divorce in 2016, but the Roloff matriarch didn’t leave the family home until recently when she received a payout of $667,000 from Matt for her portion of the house.
Now, Amy and fiance Chris are updating the quaint suburban home she purchased in October 2019, which is just a short 15-minute drive from the farm.
On Wednesday, Amy shared a snapshot of her soon-to-be hubby “working on another project for the house,” which included a bunch of wooden boards and planks.
The selfie featured the mother of four smiling for the camera, while her real estate agent fiance worked on the renovations behind her.
The Little People star captioned the post: “I help, well maybe cheered him on more, but this is another good one that’s probably more for me.
“And I got to use a power drill.
“Yippee! He’s amazing. #anotherhouseproject #newhouse #greatjob #powertools #togetherness #workingtogether”
Late last month, Chris had his hands full with a project out in the garden.
His fiancee caught him in the middle of working and posted the photo to Instagram, writing along with it: “Chris has been working so hard on getting a lot of projects done around the house for us.
“I’m so proud of him and can’t thank him enough. Love you babe!

LITTLE People, Big World stars Matt and Amy Roloff have been divorced for five years.
They’ve both moved on in their personal lives with new partners, and last season they decided how to go forward with the family farm.
The season 19 finale wrapped up with Amy accepting Matt’s buyout option for her share of Roloff Farms.
The tearful ending saw Amy say that she would have “no reason to set foot on this farm again.”
“I don’t think any decision was really a good one. But I think this one is the best one not just for right now, but for the future,” Amy told her ex-husband.
Amy showed off all of the home improvements to her son Zach and his wife Tori last week when she invited them over for a barbecue.
The LPBW star shared a family photo with Zach and Tori, their children — Jackson, 3, and Lilah, 7 months — and her fiancé Chris outdoors in their backyard.
She was so happy to spend some time with them and captioned the picture: “I was so excited to have @zroloff07 and @toriroloff and kids over – my family, for a bbq dinner and just hang out.
“It feels like it’s been too long since I’ve seen them. Wonderful visit.
Amy continued: “Jackson is 3! He’s such a boy full of adventure and Lilah is precious.
“She’ll be on her own adventure soon (crawling). Chris did an amazing job bbq.
“I’m thankful to have him in my life and glad he enjoys ‘hosting’ or having people over as much as I do. Love my family.”
