A Lot Went On Behind The Scenes Of Duck Dynasty, And It Wasn’t Pretty

Reed’s Trouble With Fame

Fans also worried about Jase and Missy Robertson’s son, Reed. The 18-year-old had a difficult time dealing with the fame that came along with the show, and at one point he thought about committing suicide. Fortunately, things got better for the young man. In 2015, he got engaged to his high school sweetheart Brighton Thompson on Christmas Eve in Central Park during a trip to New York City. He gave her a 3-carat diamond heirloom from his fiancee’s family, and he wrote on Instagram: “I couldn’t be more excited to marry this amazing woman. My fiancé is a babe in every way.” They tied the knot in October 2016.
