In a deeply emotional update that has stirred heartfelt concern across the Duck Dynasty community, Christine Robertson, wife of beloved TV personality and Vietnam veteran Si Robertson, has issued a public statement regarding her husband’s current health.
The message came just a few hours ago from the family’s home in Louisiana, where Christine tearfully confirmed that Si, age 77, is facing a serious health condition that has left the entire Robertson family and their extended network of fans requesting prayers for peace and strength.
“Si is a fighter,” Christine said in her statement. “But we’re in a hard season right now. We’re asking for your love, your prayers, and your continued support as we focus on his care.”
Known for his unforgettable one-liners, iced tea in hand, and larger-than-life presence on Duck Dynasty, Uncle Si quickly became a fan favorite for his humor, candor, and unwavering faith. Beyond the laughs, however, many fans know that Si has long lived with several health challenges, including issues related to lung function and mental health from his time serving in Vietnam.
While the family chose not to disclose the exact nature of his current condition, Christine’s words suggest that it is serious enough to warrant full-time care and deep family focus.
“He’s still cracking jokes — when he can,” Christine added. “But he’s tired. And right now, we’re staying by his side, trusting in God’s timing and goodness.”
The Robertson family has been a fixture in American households for more than a decade, admired not just for their duck calls and outdoor lifestyle, but for the transparency with which they’ve shared their struggles and faith. Si, in particular, has always spoken openly about the battles he’s faced — both physical and emotional — and how his relationship with God helped him through.
Since Christine’s statement, messages of love and prayer have poured in from fans across the country.
“Uncle Si brought so much joy to my home,” one fan wrote. “Praying for comfort, peace, and a full recovery.”
“He made us laugh, but more than that — he reminded us to be real, to love family, and to keep faith first,” another shared.
The Robertson family says that Si is currently surrounded by loved ones, including his nephews Willie, Jase, and Jep, and that he is receiving the best medical care possible.
Christine ended her statement with a simple, faith-filled request:
“We believe in the power of prayer. Please keep lifting Si up — not just for healing, but for comfort. No matter what happens, we know God is with us.”
As the world waits for further updates, fans and friends alike are standing with the Robertson family — united in hope, love, and the belief that even in hard times, faith holds strong.
