Fans of the beloved Robertson family are thrilled that “Duck Dynasty: The Revival” will be back on A&E in the summer of 2025. From 2012 to 2017, the show was a huge hit and now millions of people around the world watch it every week because of its unique mix of humor, family drama, and Southern charm. This return of the show is a big deal for the family. Here’s what you need to know about it, including what changes to expect and which beloved characters will be back.
WHAT IS “DUCK DYNASTY: THE REVIVAL” ALL ABOUT?
The new season will be mostly about the Robertson family, especially Willie Robertson and his wife Korie Robertson, as they try to grow their family business, Duck Commander. The show will give an in-depth look at their lives now, with a focus on how the family works and the next generation of Robertsons. Fans can look forward to seeing their favorite family members, such as Willie’s grown children, such as John Luke, Sadie, and Bella—who are now adults and running their own businesses.
Over the years, the Robertson kids have stepped into new chapters of their lives. Sadie Robertson Huff and her husband, Christian Huff, who tied the knot in 2019, are now parents to two little girls, Honey and Haven, with baby number three on the way later this year. John Luke Robertson has been married to Mary Kate McEacharn since 2015, and together they’re raising three children—two boys, John and Wells, and a daughter named Ella. Rebecca Robertson and her husband, John Loflin, are also building their family, with a son, Zane, and a daughter, Holland. Bella Robertson became Bella Mayo when she married Jacob Mayo in June 2021, though they’ve yet to grow their family. Meanwhile, Willie Robertson Jr. recently began married life with Abby Hammond in 2023. As for Adopted son of Willie and Korie, Rowdy Robertson, he remains single for now.
This Duck Dynasty revival promises to bring a fresh perspective on the family business, while also diving deeper into the personal and professional lives of the Robertson children. It’s a rare chance to see how the family has evolved since the end of the original show.
A FAMILY AFFAIR: WHO IS COMING BACK?
Fans of the original Duck Dynasty series will be thrilled to hear that many familiar faces will be returning for the revival. While the show will mainly focus on Willie and Korie Robertson, other family members—such as Miss Kay, the beloved matriarch of the family, and Uncle Si, who became a fan favorite for his quirky personality and wisecracks, will also make appearances.
However, the revival will be bittersweet as Phil Robertson, the patriarch of the family and the figure who sparked the success of the Duck Commander business, will not be a central figure in the new series. Unfortunately, Phil has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, which has made it impossible for him to participate in the revival. Fans are deeply saddened by his absence, but his family is dedicated to continuing his legacy in the business and on screen.
DUCK DYNASTY: THE REVIVAL SEASON 1 RELEASE DATE
The A&E series is set to debut on May 28 at 9pm ET/PT, with a thrilling run of 10 consecutive weeks ahead. The first season is set to feature 10 episodes, each running for an hour. The series has officially received the green light for a second season.
WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM THE REVIVAL?

The show will show how Willie and Korie run their Duck Commander empire, handle the stress of fame, raise their kids, and balance work and personal life. The differences between the older Robertsons and their children, who are going their own ways, will be a big part of the story.
Fans will also get a better look into the lives of Willie’s kids, like Sadie Robertson, who has made a name for herself in show business and social media. A big part of the revival will definitely be Sadie’s personal growth, her business ventures and her relationships with her siblings.
