Off camera, life brought its own set of personal challenges. In 2021, Danielle shared that she had been experiencing various health issues. While doctors continued to search for a clear diagnosis, she leaned into lifestyle changes, faith, and family support to manage her well-being. Adam played a key role at home, stepping in to ensure the children’s routines remained steady and filled with care.
As the children have matured, so has the complexity of family life. Blayke, now 14, is navigating her teenage years and forming her own identity. Danielle, who also grew up as a singleton among siblings, is intentional about making sure Blayke feels supported and seen, especially as the eldest in a very busy household.
The quintuplets, now 10, are developing strong personalities and forming deeper interests in school and friendships. Ava and Olivia, who are identical twins, share a close bond, while Hazel continues to thrive with the support of her family as she manages a vision condition. Riley, recognized early on for her advanced academic abilities, started school ahead of her age group. Meanwhile, Parker, once known for her quiet nature, has grown into a self-assured and affectionate young girl.
Danielle and Adam prioritize individual time with each daughter, often breaking the group into pairs for activities and outings. This “divide and conquer” method helps ensure each child has the space to grow and be heard. “We want to help them discover what they love, not force them into anything,” Danielle said, reflecting on their parenting approach.
As with many large families, finances are part of the daily conversation. Expenses like school supplies, extracurriculars, and healthcare can add up quickly—especially when multiplied by six. The Busbys approach these challenges with humor and perspective, always focusing on what’s best for their children.
After ten seasons of OutDaughtered, the family continues to evaluate their involvement in the show with care. As their daughters grow older and more aware of their environment, they are given the option to participate based on their comfort. Danielle and Adam emphasize the importance of flexibility and consent in keeping the experience positive and respectful for their kids.
For the Busbys, OutDaughtered has become more than a TV series—it’s a living memory bank, capturing the joys, milestones, and growth of a unique family journey. Adam has noted that their children, and even future generations, will be able to look back on these years with pride and perspective.
Nearly a decade into parenting six daughters, the Busbys remain grounded in their mission: raising kind, confident individuals while nurturing a strong, supportive family foundation. Whether in front of the camera or in the quiet moments at home, their story is one of dedication, teamwork, and love—growing together, one chapter at a time.
