Vivian, Louisiana — Just 39 minutes ago, heartbreaking news emerged from the Robertson family, as Jep Robertson — youngest son of Duck Dynasty stars Phil and Kay Robertson — delivered an emotional message about his mother’s sudden health decline.
Still grieving the recent loss of her husband, Phil Robertson, who passed away earlier this week, 77-year-old Kay Robertson has reportedly suffered a significant downturn in her health. The family, already in mourning, now faces a new and painful chapter.
Jep, visibly shaken, shared the update through a family video posted on social media. Holding back tears, he said, “Mom’s not doing well… It’s like losing Dad took the air out of her. She’s heartbroken, and her body’s just not handling it well.”
He went on to describe how Kay, lovingly known as “Miss Kay” to fans, had been showing signs of fatigue and emotional distress in the days following Phil’s passing. According to the family, she was recently taken to a nearby medical facility for monitoring and support.
“We’re surrounding her with love, faith, and prayer — just like Dad would want,” Jep continued. “But we’re asking for your prayers too. She’s the heart of our family, and right now, she’s hurting more than we’ve ever seen.”
Miss Kay has long been cherished by Duck Dynasty fans for her gentle spirit, unwavering faith, and deep devotion to her family. For decades, she stood beside Phil as both partner and pillar, weathering life’s storms with strength and grace.
The news has sparked an outpouring of support online, with thousands of fans posting messages of love, comfort, and prayers for her recovery. Many have shared how Kay and Phil inspired them with their faith-filled example of family life.
At this time, the Robertson family has asked for privacy as they focus on Kay’s care and healing. Further updates are expected in the coming days.
As Jep said through emotion: “We’ve lost one rock — we’re not ready to lose another.”
