Willie Robertson Says Miss Kay’s Health is Declining in Wake of Phil Robertson’s Death
The Robertson family is navigating their grief journey.
Less than two weeks after Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson died following a battle with Alzheimer’s disease, his son Willie Robertson shared his concerns about mom Kay “Miss Kay” Robertson.
“Kay is not in the best of health,” Willie told USA Today in an interview published June 5. “We’re trying to help her out as much as we can.”
“Some of it is she is just depressed,” he continued. “She lost her partner of 60 years.”
While the 77-year-old appeared in the first episode of the Duck Dynasty: The Revival reboot, Willie said that her health struggles kept her from making any more cameos.
The health update comes after her son Jase Robertson revealed that Kay—who also shares kids Jep Robertson and Alan Robertson with Phil—was “not doing good” earlier this year.
“She got an infection from a fall from a cut that had happened earlier,” he explained on the Unashamed with the Robertson Family podcast in April. “We were dealing with the fact that maybe this is it.”
