‘The Blended Bunch’ spoilers have found that TLC is at it again with the giant families. Come March you will be introduced to the newest reality brood- the Shemwells.
The Shemwells, aka, ‘The Blended Bunch’ are a family of 13, but the twist this time as that the family is, of course, a blended one. Mom, Erica is 33 and has seven children from her pervious marriage- Landon, 12, Emma, 10, Lily, 9, Sophie, 8, Tanner, 6, Amelia, 5, and Caleb, 3. Dad, Spencer (32) has 4 children from his previous marriage- Brayden, 12, Harper, 8, Avery, 6, and Bexley, 4.
‘The Blended Bunch’ Spoilers: Prepare to meet your newest TLC guilty pleasure.
Both Erica and Spencer are widows. Erica’s late husband, Tony died of brain cancer in 2018 while Spencer’s late wife, Aimee was killed in a car accident.
The first look preview, dropped by TLC on their YouTube channel over the weekend assured audiences this one will be a tear jerker.
“I feel like my heart was ripped out of my chest,” Erica laments about losing her first husband while a tearful Spencer recalls tearfully. “I remember sitting the kids all in my lap, I said, ‘Mommy passed away.’”
‘The Blended Bunch’ Spoilers: Uhf!
Says Spencer, “I thought there was no way that I could ever love anyone like Aimee,” but the two widowers have found love again with each other and look to be loving life with their Brady Bunch type family.
“Except we have no Alice,” Spencer quips. “We need an Alice.”
He’s not kidding. The previews show a very boisterous hoard of kids, cringing in disgust as their parents smooch and displaying sibling rivalry with a twist: “You can’t tell me what to do, you’re not my real sister,” one of the little girls exclaims to her step-sister. Then, when a producer asks what the hardest part about being a blended family is, the two girls point fingers at each other and claim “her!”
But the worst sibling issues looks to be with Erica’s brother, Quinn. It seems he has not accepted Spencer into the family just yet. This may be partly due to his sister wondering if she’ll always play second fiddle to Spencer’s first wife, Aimee and partly due to the fact that he supported his sister and nieces and nephews throughout Tony’s cancer battle and helped Erica put her life back together after Tony’s passing.
