Just under an hour ago, in a moment that has left fans and loved ones heartbroken, Phyllis Robertson — daughter of the late Phil Robertson — shared a tearful and deeply emotional update about the woman so many have come to know and love as the heart of the Duck Dynasty family: Kay Robertson.
“Miss Kay isn’t doing well,” Phyllis said softly. “We’ve been by her side around the clock. She’s resting, but her body is tired… and our hearts are heavy.”
At 77, Kay has long been a symbol of grace, strength, and unshakable faith within the Robertson family. But following the recent loss of her beloved husband Phil, her health has taken a heartbreaking turn.
“She was strong for all of us after Daddy passed,” Phyllis continued, “but now… it’s like her spirit is fading without him.”
According to the family, Kay is currently under close medical care in West Monroe, surrounded by children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren — all gathered in love, prayer, and quiet preparation.
“She talks about seeing him again,” Phyllis said through tears. “She tells us not to cry, that she’s ready when the Lord is. But we’re not ready. We never could be.”
Fans of Duck Dynasty have long admired Miss Kay’s nurturing presence, her deep love for her family, and the steady faith that grounded their often chaotic and colorful world. Now, those same fans are sending love and prayers back to the woman who gave so much of herself to others.
Across social media, messages of hope, support, and heartfelt memories are pouring in. “Miss Kay prayed for all of us for years,” one fan wrote. “Now we’re praying for her.”
For the Robertsons, this is not just a health update — it’s a sacred moment. A time to reflect. A time to love well. And as they hold tightly to one another, they continue to do what they’ve always done best: lean on their faith in God and the power of prayer.
“Please pray with us,” Phyllis added. “For strength. For peace. And for the comfort only He can give.”
