Little People, Big World’s Jacob Roloff and Isabel Rock’s Romance Timeline

Jacob Roloff continues to experience a big, fulfilled life away from the reality TV cameras.

After Jacob’s teenage years in the limelight due to his participation in the reality show “Little People, Big World,” he chose to leave the TV series produced by TLC in 2014 upon reaching the age of 18. Currently, he resides in Oregon, where he leads a life as a married man and a father.

In a heartfelt Instagram post shared in March 2025, Jacob expressed his gratitude for his current life at @rolofffarms alongside his wife, Isabel Rock, and their son, Mateo. He spoke about the joy of raising his own child while engaging in the same farming activities he enjoyed as a youngster. Over the past four years, he has gained valuable insights into agricultural practices, equipment operation, and personal growth, reflecting on the significance of the farm without the constant presence of a television crew.

While his experience with reality TV was far from perfect, Jacob has found hope and healing thanks to a relationship and family life with Isabel.

Amy Roloff and Matt Roloff welcomed four kids ahead of their 2016 split and are now proud grandparents. The TLC personalities wed in September 1987, and their twin sons, Jeremy and Zach, arrived three years later. Their daughter, Molly, arrived in 1993, followed by son Jacob in 1997. Amy and Matt began their television career […]

March 2006 

The TLC reality show Little People, Big World introduced millions of viewers to the Roloff family.

Viewers were familiar with the Roloff family through the lens of cameras capturing the daily activities of Amy Roloff and her husband, Matt Roloff, on their farm located near Portland, Oregon. While Zach, their son, and two other siblings, Jeremy and Molly, have dwarfism, Jacob and another sibling, who goes by full height, enriched the family dynamic with their unique perspectives.

2014

Jacob left his family’s reality series shortly after he turned 18. Ten years later, the former TLC star shared some perspective about his decision.

“I was 18 and finally had the agency to not sign the contract, so I didn’t, and promptly left home mostly due to disgust for the show and reality TV in general,” he wrote via Instagram in March 2025. “I used that money to build my world back again with my wife, rather than capitalize on it for all it was worth, for better or worse.”

January 2018

After a romantic proposal over the Christmas holiday, Jacob confirmed to his social media followers that he was off the market.

“…we got ENGAGED!” he wrote via Instagram on January 27, 2018. “It happened in Iceland on the frozen pond, Tjornin, late on Christmas. So much love for this beautiful soul @izzysofia_ . Here’s to many more Christmas’ , you n me.”

September 2019

Unforgettable memories were made at the Roloff Family Farm when Jacob and Isabel got married in an outdoor celebration attended by family and friends.

“What a celebration! Congratulations Jacob and Isabel on taking the ultimate step of love — total commitment,” Jeremy wrote via Instagram after the ceremony. “The final step being living it out! So excited for you guys! Welcome to the family sister! We’re all married, and the family continues to grow!”

December 2020

In a social media post, Jacob detailed the alleged abuse he experienced while working with his family on their TLC series.

“As a child, after what I realize now was a long grooming process, I was molested by an executive field producer for Little People, Big World,” he claimed via Instagram. “By revealing this, I may be more fully understood.”

TLC responded to Jacob’s allegations in a statement to Us Weekly at the time.

“TLC was just informed about an alleged encounter that occurred years ago involving a third party connected to the production of Little People, Big World,” the statement read. “We are saddened and troubled by this very serious allegation, and TLC will work cooperatively with the authorities. Our main focus remains on supporting the Roloff family during this very difficult time.”

Isabel later showed her support for Jacob by writing via Instagram, “You are the most self assured person I know, and I am in awe of you. You are free, my love. I am so proud of you.”

December 2021

Jacob and Isabel became parents when they welcomed their first child into the fold. “My wife is a superhero, my son is an angel and all nurses are saints goodnight,” he wrote via X, confirming the arrival of a baby boy named Mateo.

Little People, Big World stars Zach Roloff and Tori Roloff’s relationship has come a long way since their initial meet cute. The twosome met while Tori was working on the Roloff family farm — which was run by Zach’s parents, Amy Roloff and Matt Roloff — in 2010. Zach and Tori started off as friends, […]

March 2025

More than 10 years after Jacob stepped away from reality TV, his wife responded to some commentators asking about their living situation.

“Jacob deserves the land, as do all the kids. I hope TLC still pays the kids for reruns. People totally watched the show because of the kids,” one user commented. Isabel responded, “They definitely do not pay the kids for reruns haha.”

She added, “We can’t afford to fully buy it from Matt, but we do love living here while we can and Jacob takes good care of it.”
