It’s Over!! Separated | Danielle Busby 2nd Husband | Adam Busby Alone | Outdaughtared | TLC
In the latest episode of OutDaughtered, Danielle Busby brought up a sensitive issue with her husband, Adam, urging him to consider hiring extra help to manage their increasingly hectic lives. With their six children — including their 9-year-old quintuplets Parker, Riley, Hazel, Alydia, and Ava, plus 12-year-old Blake — the couple’s schedules are constantly colliding. Danielle, who juggles home, work, and parenting responsibilities, expressed that things had become unmanageable without additional support. “At some point, Adam, with your schedule getting busier, and me being in and out all the time, we need help,” she said, making her concerns clear.
A Growing Need for Assistance
As their children’s activities ramp up and their professional obligations intensify, Danielle proposed the idea of bringing in someone to help, whether it’s a full-time caregiver or someone just to assist with logistics like school drop-offs. “We don’t have enough hands. We don’t have enough drivers,” she said. Adam, on the other hand, was hesitant, explaining that he was excited to take on the challenge himself. However, Danielle, pointing out that they simply can’t manage the day-to-day without help, said, “If we don’t hire someone, one of us would have to quit their job — and I can’t do that.” The couple had discussed hiring help in the past, but as their children have grown and their commitments have increased, it has become clear that finding outside assistance may be their only viable solution.
The Strain of Everyday Life
In a candid confessional, Danielle elaborated on why they were at a breaking point. “It’s literally like running a house, and even if I hire someone full-time, I would still be busy full-time,” she admitted. “There are things like laundry, school schedules, and other tasks that I just can’t manage on my own.” Adam, trying to ease the tension, seemed to recognize the weight of her concerns but was still reluctant to agree on hiring help. Danielle, exasperated, finally said, “If you don’t want me to hire someone, then you better step up your game.”
Hazel’s Health Update: A Bright Spot Amid the Chaos
While the couple struggles with the realities of their busy lives, they also shared an emotional update about their daughter Hazel’s health. Hazel, one of the quintuplets, was born with a vision condition known as nystagmus, which causes involuntary eye movements and can impact her depth perception, balance, and coordination. In the recent season of OutDaughtered, Danielle expressed her nerves ahead of Hazel’s eye doctor appointment. “Last time we saw the doctor, Hazel didn’t need surgery, but it’s something we have to monitor as she grows,” she explained. Despite her worries, the appointment went well, and the new doctor confirmed that Hazel’s vision was stable, with a 20/30 result. This was a huge relief for the family, especially after the anxiety of possibly needing another surgery.
Looking Ahead with Optimism
Danielle and Adam were both relieved after hearing the positive news, feeling hopeful that Hazel wouldn’t need surgery in the future. “I don’t have any concerns about what Hazel can accomplish,” Danielle said, confident in her daughter’s abilities. “She can ride a bike, play softball, or even be a gymnast if she wants to.” The family’s optimism about Hazel’s condition marks a bright spot in the midst of their chaotic lives.
As the OutDaughtered family continues to navigate their busy schedules, the Busbys are learning that balancing work, family, and personal health requires a team effort. Whether or not they hire outside help, their unwavering support for each other and their children’s well-being remains the foundation of their family dynamic.
