How is Sadie Robertson from “Duck Dynasty” doing today?

The name Sadie Robertson first went around the world on March 21, 2012 when the premiere of the reality TV series titled “Duck Dynasty” aired on the A&E network. It portrayed the daily life of the wealthy and offbeat Robertson family, who owned and operated their massive Duck Commander company.

The company offers a variety of products aimed at explorers and hunters, with an emphasis on outdoor recreational activities. For example, the family’s signature product is their duck whistles, which hunters use to lure wild ducks in and earn a quick meal.

Duck Commander also has many other items to offer, including all kinds of camo clothing and face paint, deer sounds, lures, off-road vehicle modifications and accessories, and various toys and clothing items ranging from Halloween costumes to figurines representing the franchise.

It is by far one of the most successful companies of its kind, with global reach and a slew of satisfied investors whose wealth grows exponentially every year. They are known to sell over 600,000 of their duck calls alone each year, giving Willie Robertson as CEO a net worth of over $40 million.

However, the reality TV series in question did not focus on the financial side of the business. Instead, it served to show the viewers and their millions of customers who the people behind the brand really are. With a great response from the audience, their brand came out even stronger than before the series, as the family favorite warmed the hearts of the Robertsons and fans alike.

This, of course, is none other than Sadie Carroway Robertson, who was just a young girl when the series hit the TV screen – born on June 17, 1997, she was just 14 years old when the first episode came out. The contrast between an easygoing and rather reckless teenage girl and a group of older, bearded men dressed up as a biker gang made for a very interesting viewing experience.

It also helped the show’s growth that every rough-looking Robertson was very sweet to Sadie, as all the cast members had a soft spot for her. The audience could effectively watch her grow up on the show, having witnessed her first car ride, her prom, and many other childhood activities that were brand new for someone her age.

It is clear that she also became a fan favorite, gaining hundreds of thousands of followers in her subsequent solo career. The show came to a scheduled end five years after its start, the final episode airing on March 29, 2017.

However, this was not the end of the Robertsons in the spotlight, just the beginning. With millions hungry for more insight into the lives of “Duck Dynasty” members, the show inadvertently spawned a number of podcasts and even a spin-off series, all of which arose from the insatiable curiosity of its fans, many of whom still being active. early 2023.

Sadie’s path

A celebrity since the very beginning of the series, Sadie had the honor of being invited to numerous other TV shows even while filming “Duck Dynasty”, including 2013’s “Fox and Friends”, “Inside Edition “, “Dancing with the Stars” and “Entertainment Tonight” in 2014, and many others.

After the end of ‘Duck Dynasty’, Sadie almost immediately appeared in her first podcast, which is thought to have prompted her to create her own podcast some time later. She was a guest on the “That Sounds Fun with Annie F. Downs” podcast and asked a host of questions about the family and how she expected her life to go on after the show.

Fans didn’t have to wait long to get the definitive answer to that question, as in 2018, Sadie created the “WHOA That’s Good” podcast. She also became very active on her YouTube channel, which was launched on March 26, 2015.

Religion, in particular, has always been a very important part of the Robertsons’ way of life, which continues to be embodied in Sadie’s own content. Her channel description reads, “If you’re looking for biblical encouragement, words of affirmation, inspirational stories, relationship advice, and other positive style videos, subscribe to this channel and hit the notification bell so you don’t miss a thing!”

The story behind her owning a channel in the first place is also rather peculiar, and it’s best told by Sadie herself in the same description section. It starts with ‘HEYO, welcome to my YouTube channel! My name is Sadie Rob (…now Sadie Robertson Huff). I accidentally started my channel after my little sister, Bella Robertson, uploaded a very personal video of me being vulnerable, but soon after I knew I could be a sister and a friend to everyone.”

That said, what she really means to say is that her platform offers support and guidance to anyone who feels insecure or lost in life, which is Sadie’s offering to the world as the selfless Christian she strives to be.

The description goes on to say, “I like to share videos, as well as blogs, podcasts, and short posts on social media. I hope you are encouraged by these weekly videos and that they help you find purpose in life, know that you are loved. New videos are posted every Monday and Thursday. If you have any questions or ideas, leave a comment!’

As of February 2023, Sadie’s channel has a total of 37 million views, with bits and pieces of her podcasts consistently appearing as new videos every three to four days. Ironically, her by far most viewed video doesn’t even feature the professional editing that is regularly seen on her channel these days.

Under the title “Just be yourself and live original | Sadie Robertson,” the video was uploaded on March 26, 2015, while “Duck Dynasty” was at the peak of its popularity. The TV series itself, which was already all the rage at the time, has undoubtedly been the biggest contributor to her overall video views and subsequent popularity of the channel.

In that particular upload she took the time to talk about life in general and opened up with “Hey guys okay so I just really wanted to do this because I’ve seen a lot of Instagram comments from everyone, a lot of tweets, a lot about everything, everyone says ‘goals’ these days.’

Granted, 2015 was the time when social media posts related to annual goals were fairly popular, which further helped Sadie tap into the content creator market as she apparently focused on a current trend.

She continued, “They say ‘your relationship goals’ or ‘your brow goals’ or ‘your thigh gap,’ or just goals in general. And, like, people really compare themselves to others, and they really want to achieve this “goal.” And so I wanted to hit you with reality. And I’m just going to be honest about everything.”

An important thing to note is that Sadie uploaded this video without any makeup at all, which only served to further prove her points and present her to the world as a girl who is quite confident even in her teens.

She said: ‘My name is Sadie Carroway Robertson, I’m 170cm tall, I weigh 55kg and I eat all the time, basically all the time. I’m not tight, I don’t have abs, no, definitely no abs. I do have a thigh cleft, but that’s only because I have really crooked legs and my thighs have never been able to touch.’

This brutally honest approach apparently had a lot to do with the audience, especially all the girls her age who probably had body image issues at the time and probably considered Sadie their idol.

To make the point, she explained, “The reason I’m telling you this is because I want to tell you the reality of things. I struggle with jealousy and I struggle with comparing myself to other people. I struggle with worry and I am very hard on myself. I’m just like any other girl. I look in the mirror and pick up on the mistake, which is embarrassing, but it’s true.”

It was clear from her face that she was reading a script she had written before, which probably helped a lot to get such honest words out on the internet. She went on to destroy the illusion of invulnerability, which most social media celebrities wore at the time.

I hope everyone had a quiet weekend… We look forward to a fun and exciting week here at LO! Stay tuned 🤩 pic.twitter.com/QDbwYAXxyZ

Sadie explained that she’s pretty much always overthinking, and that she’s far from perfect, saying, “I have a hard time with people who don’t like me, and a lot of times I assume people don’t like me or whatever. They probably haven’t even thought of me yet.’

She then went on to give the explanation that pretty much sums up the beginning of her career as we know it today: “About a year ago I started preaching about self-confidence, and it’s mostly because I struggle with self-confidence, and I thought maybe by talking about it, it would help me. And it did, and this is what I realized.”

Sadie went on to explain that people should live originally, not vicariously, that their goals should be their own and have nothing to do with how others live their lives. This message of confidence and positivity clearly had a big impact on viewers, and the video exploded on social media within weeks.

Sadie later used this popularity to jump-start her career as a public speaker and YouTube content creator, branching out into all kinds of positive advice, especially regarding religion and self-improvement.

Live original

The video was so successful that she chose the main message as a name for her brand – Live original. A book of the same name was released in the same year as the aforementioned video, while “Live Original Devotional” was released in 2016, “Live Fearless” in 2018, “Live” in 2020, “Live On Purpose” in 2021, and “Who Are You As a Sequel” on?” in 2022.

Sadie has been an author and media personality since 2015 and still felt that wasn’t enough. She began to specialize in the entertainment industry, landing the role of Marlene in 2016’s “God’s Not Dead 2” as well as Chloe in “Sun, Sand & Romance” in 2017.

In the same year, she also starred in Brett Eldredge’s music video titled ‘The Long Way’, starring as Charity in 2016’s ‘I’m Not Ashamed’ as well as her own self in the 2016 College Humor video. 2017 short film titled “Past the Past” marks the grand total of her acting career to date.

She also continues to appear in most of the “Duck Dynasty” spin-offs, specials and podcasts, including 2021’s “At Home with the Robertsons” and 2022’s “Unashamed with Phil & Jase Robertson”.

One of the most important projects she has carried out in recent years is the LO Sister Conference event, which brings together fans of her books and podcasts from around the world in various cultural centers to host prominent speakers on self-improvement and religion. as well as many other celebrities who share Sadie’s vision.

She has unequivocal support from the Christian community, with many of their websites constantly promoting LO sister conferences. She also has one website on which tickets for these events are sold many months in advance.

Finally, Sadie’s own Instagram page lists her as a “wife and mommy,” which is the most important aspect of who she is right now besides her thriving career. She became concerned to a certain Christian Huff on June 9, 2019, and married him on November 25 of the same year. They have since had a baby girl named Honey, born on May 11, 2021, while their second child will be born in June 2023.
