Chris Hanna and Robbie Welsh from “Shipping Wars” left the show after the fifth season to focus on their family and their own business. They have continued working in the transportation industry.
Chris Hanna and Robbie Welsh were fan favorites on A&E’s reality series “Shipping Wars,” which followed independent shippers who transport items that traditional carriers either cannot or will not haul. The couple, known for their competitive spirit and on-screen chemistry, decided to leave the show after its fifth season, which aired in 2014.
Their departure was not due to any controversy or issues with the show; rather, they wanted to dedicate more time to their personal lives and their growing family. Chris and Robbie have a son together, and managing family life along with the demands of filming a reality TV show became challenging.
After leaving “Shipping Wars,” Chris and Robbie continued to work in the transportation industry. They have been running their own shipping business, Palmetto Yacht Management, which specializes in transporting boats, a niche that Robbie has expertise in due to her family background in the boating industry.
The couple has maintained a relatively low profile since their departure from the show, focusing on their business and family rather than public appearances or reality TV fame. They occasionally update fans on their lives and business through social media, where they share their ongoing adventures in shipping and family life.
