Duck Dynasty couple Korie and Willie Robertson posted a surprise for fans on their Instagram on Jan. 3: they are adopting their sixth child. Their post on Korie’s Instagram said, “We’ve had lots of questions about the cute kid popping up in our photos lately ? We are excited to be in the process of adopting a new son! He’s been with us since May, but we wanted some privacy and time for him and our family to bond before telling the world (It’s a bit of an adjustment coming into this big, crazy family, ha?) He’s amazing, and we are all so thrilled to have another kid around the house. Couldn’t keep the good news to ourselves any longer! We appreciate your prayers and support for our family! Love, The Robertson’s.”
