Grandma Michelle, also known as Mimi, experienced several challenges on the show “OutDaughtered.” She went through a divorce, lost her home to a flood, and had to rebuild her life with the support of her family.
On the reality TV show “OutDaughtered,” which follows the lives of Danielle and Adam Busby and their all-girl quintuplets plus older daughter, Danielle’s mother Michelle “Mimi” Theriot has faced a series of personal difficulties. One of the most significant events was her divorce, which was a tough transition for her and was featured on the show. Following her divorce, Mimi became more involved in the Busby family’s daily life, often helping with the quintuplets.
Unfortunately, Mimi’s challenges didn’t end there. In 2017, she was one of the many victims of Hurricane Harvey when it hit Houston, Texas. Her home was severely damaged by the floodwaters, rendering it uninhabitable. This was a particularly emotional time for the family, as they rallied around her to provide support. The show documented Mimi’s struggle with the loss of her home and her subsequent move into a new house, with the Busbys helping her to get back on her feet.
Despite these hardships, Mimi has shown resilience and has continued to be an integral part of the Busby family’s life, sharing in both the challenges and joys of raising the quintuplets. Her journey has resonated with many viewers who have faced similar life challenges.
