CONFIRMED – TLC has publicly revealed shocking reason behind decision to cancel “Doubling Down with the Derricos”
“Doubling Down with the Derricos” Officially Ends — Family Confirms No Future Seasons 💔📺
Fans of Doubling Down with the Derricos have received emotional news as the Derrico family has officially confirmed that the beloved TLC show will not return for any future seasons.
After five seasons on the network, Deon Derrico shared that the family’s journey with TLC has come to an end. While the series captured the hearts of viewers around the world since its premiere in 2020, the family has now decided to move forward in a new direction outside the network.
The show followed Deon and his former wife Karen Derrico and their extraordinary household of 14 children in Las Vegas. The family fascinated audiences because all of the children were conceived naturally, including multiple sets of multiples — quintuplets, two sets of triplets, and two sets of twins.
Over the years, viewers watched the Derricos navigate the challenges of raising a very large family while celebrating milestones, facing health scares, and supporting one another through difficult moments.
Major life changes behind the scenes
The announcement that the series will not continue comes after several major changes in the Derrico family’s life.
In June 2024, Deon and Karen officially divorced after nearly two decades of marriage. Despite the separation, the two have maintained a cooperative relationship and continue to share custody of their 13 minor children while prioritizing the family’s stability and well-being. Their oldest daughter, Darian, is now an adult.
Although their romantic relationship ended, both parents have emphasized that their commitment to raising their children together remains unchanged.
A difficult loss for the family
The family has also recently faced heartbreaking news. In early March 2026, Deon revealed that his mother, Marian “GG” Derrico, passed away after a long battle with cancer.
Known affectionately by fans as “Grandma GG,” she became one of the most beloved figures on the show. Her wisdom, warmth, and deep love for her grandchildren made her a standout presence in many episodes. Her passing deeply affected both the Derrico family and viewers who had grown attached to her over the years.
What’s next for the Derrico family?
Although Doubling Down with the Derricos is ending, this does not mean fans have seen the last of the family.
Deon revealed that the family is now a “free agent” in the television world, meaning they are exploring opportunities with other networks and streaming platforms. Discussions are reportedly underway for a new reality project that could debut sometime in late 2026.
The potential new show would focus on the next chapter of the Derrico family’s life — including how the children continue to grow, pursue their interests, and adapt to the family’s evolving dynamic after the divorce.
A memorable legacy
Since its debut, Doubling Down with the Derricos has stood out among family reality shows for its unique story and heartwarming moments. Viewers watched the Derrico children grow up, celebrate birthdays, overcome challenges, and support one another through every stage of life.
While the series may be ending, many fans say the impact of the show — and the remarkable story of the Derrico family — will not be forgotten.
For now, supporters are hoping the family’s next television chapter will arrive soon, allowing audiences to continue following the extraordinary lives of the Derricos as their story moves forward. 📺💛
