Friends with the ex. Little People, Big World star Amy Roloff understands that people are probably shocked to learn about her husband Chris Marek‘s close bond with her ex-husband, Matt Roloff.“We don’t have the dates figured out yet, but we’re going to Arizona for a week to visit the other Roloff,” Chris announces during dinner with friends in Us Weekly‘s exclusive clip of the show’s Tuesday, June 21, episode, much to the shock of their guests. “It was a wedding gift and I wouldn’t mind checking out their place.”“Can we just talk about the elephant in the room here?” a friend of Chris and Amy asks in complete disbelief. “The fact that you are going to Arizona to visit your ex-husband … what is going on?” In response, Amy, 56, simply shrugs and shakes her head, before quipping, “So, do you think this marriage is going to last?”“She loves the idea,” Chris says in an attempt to defend himself, before explaining that he just wanted “to see my buddy’s other house.”That just leaves their friends more confused: “‘Buddy’ as in Matt?

Oh my — OK.”In a confessional, Amy explains that most people are “surprised” when they learn how friendly Chris is with the Against Tall Odds author, 60. “A lot of people I tell this to, they’re definitely all surprised,” she says, adding that the response “makes me wonder, ‘Should we not go?'”Chris reponds, “We’ve been talking about it for a while.

At least Matt and I have been talking about it for a while,” going on to acknowledge that he knows the trip “is more for me than it is for her.”The Amy Roloff’s Little Kitchen owner and Matt — who share twins Jeremy and Zach, 32, daughter Molly, 28, and son Jacob, 25 — were married for 27 years before calling it quits in June 2015.
