Months after Travis Clark confessed to the world that he had been unfaithful to Katie, the Clarks are sharing the news of a big life change. They are moving. They have spent 2026 in therapy and deep prayer to determine the best next steps for their family, and they took an extended trip to Florida during that time. They have not yet shared where they will be moving to, so stay tuned
Prayers to the Clark family Katie , Travis and their kids Hailey and Harvey plus both Travis and Katie’s respective families the bates and Clarks as they move forward for the better god bless them all !
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like Katie has decided to give Travis a second chance, hope it all works out for them and she isn’t disappointed again. Sounds like a good idea to move, hopefully they can be located in an area surrounded by loved ones who can help Travis be accountable, and encourage Katie.
ReplyDeleteYes, hoping all goes well for them!
DeleteThere is more to the move than what happened with Travis. I just heard. Don't wish to talk about it here, but it was concerning. Wish everyone the best.
DeleteOf course. Moving fixes your problems. Does this mean Travis doesn't want to be a nurse any longer?
ReplyDeleteUmmm… nurses are needed in every state not just Tennesse🤷🏽♀️
DeleteNurses are needed and are everywhere.
DeleteDidn't say it would fix their problems. It's their next step. If I were Katie I wouldn't want to stay in the same place with the bad memories either.
DeleteApparently one of the siblings let it slip where?
ReplyDeleteIt would be wise if they truly got off all social media. Stop the over sharing and profiting from what should be private.
ReplyDelete@2:57 Amen. It all should be private. The Bates kids don't know the meaning of that word, after Mom & Dad shared everything for profit themselves. It needs to stop.
DeleteIsn’t that their main source of income?
DeleteI feel sorry for their entire generation. They think that having tens of thousands of nameless, faceless "followers" is the way to build social community. They think that filming and posting their mundane lives or (falsely) promoting someone's product is a "job." They are going to age out of all that and then realize they built nothing lasting or valuable. By then their views of what the world "owes" them or their place and responsibility in it will be irreparably skewed. I thought it was a parent's job to teach the fallacy of things like that? They all make me worried for the future.
DeleteAgreed!
DeleteA few months of therapy, prayer, an "extended trip to Florida", and a move aren't going to solve their problems.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you recommend? No therapy, no prayer, no time away, staying in the same place where betrayal occurred?
DeleteIt sounds like Katie is being isolated, which is concerning.
DeleteThey are trying to fix their problem an that sis what matters ! Changing environnements means not living near the mistress anymore and that's a good move.
Delete5 months and all is good really? Not sure about that longer than that to repair that kind of damage. Also what happened with nursing school?
ReplyDeleteThey didn't say "all is good," they said moving is the next step. They also didn't say everything is repaired.
DeleteSince no one completes nursing school by taking extended vacations and relocating, I'd say he dropped out. I wonder what career Travis will pursue next.
DeleteLikely they are still repairing, but you can repair while living together and making other life changes, like moving. It is very hard but doable. I know because my husband and I worked through it and we’re still married and highly committed 17 years later. We had to also deal with a tremendous amount of other struggles and life changes during that time…life doesn’t stop to allow you to fix everything. Too bad it doesn’t!
DeleteOur relationship will never be the same as if it had not happened, but for us, it was actually strengthening in many ways because it was a catalyst for my husband to truly turn his life around. So the pain was terrible and still does hurt a bit, but I am so glad I stayed because I have now have a husband who is incredibly strong and compassionate and committed. And my children have their father every day. I hope that is what Travis is doing because it can work—but only if the adulterer is willing to reevaluate and change everything, stay humble and totally accountable, and support his wife through the process of grieving and rebuilding trust. And keep doing that every year for the rest of the marriage.
How coudl she possibly feel close to him again?
ReplyDeleteA sad situation. Florida? Will Travis be working for Alyssa's husband and have a tight leash on him? Why not back to NJ near his family?
ReplyDeleteYou should never have a tight leash on your spouse. That’s just control Travis will never be fully trusted again…even if he never puts a foot wrong. I’m also thinking the proverbial shoes is about to drop on the Bates Family so Katie and Travis getting out of Tennessee most likely have multiple reasons.
DeleteGetting away from family is the reason for the move. I don't think they are moving to Florida.
DeleteI don't see this marriage therapy as being very helpful as it's pretty obvious that Travis dropped out of nursing school instead of finishing the program and getting a job. They need more stability than moving around to "save their marriage."
ReplyDeleteThe move isn't about saving their marriage, I think for Katie, it's about putting some space between her and her family given apparently that relationship with her family has ruptured badly.
DeleteA young couple with 2 kids going on an “extended” vacation in Florida. The social media payouts are worth privacy I guess.
ReplyDeleteBreaking the marriage covenant, by adultery is so serious it will take Katie years to get over. I have known one close friend who was betrayed by her husband and even though they stayed together, it took years for them to put the pieces back for the broken marriage and to begin to love fully again. I hope Travis does not become a statistic of repeat offenders.
ReplyDeleteTravis and Katie are 25 and 24 years old with 2 children. They took an extended vacation in Florida sans work. What will these young families do if/when all the money from fame and selling their private lives ends and they actually have to work even during life’s hard seasons instead of taking extended vacations and going to horse farm therapy?
ReplyDeleteKatie is alluding to something happening throughout her childhood that she "recently addressed." She said that in doing so, she has "lost relationships with 90%" of her family. What is going on in this family? What was hidden to keep up appearances? Really, it may be time to examine why this blog remains while the Duggar one went away. This family is just as troubled.
ReplyDeleteI think this family is rather dysfunctional but spend most of their time ignoring problems and will not do anything but try to cover them up.
DeleteIMO Katie should stay off social media. Spilling your own secrets is one thing, but when you start uncovering family dirt, that's just sad.
DeleteGood luck went through the same thing hate to be a pessimist but it did not work. I hope it works for you but if he is not happy it will not work as much as you want it too.Best of luck to your family.
ReplyDeleteThis situation will never go away he cheated on his wife. Moving therapy prayer and whatever else will always be there in this marriage. U cant solve this type of problem in 4 to 5 months.
ReplyDeleteSeems Katie’s issues is bigger than just her marriage
ReplyDeleteSeems the Bates Family is the one with “issues”. Birds of a Feather and all…
DeleteYou left out the detail where Katie says she confronted her family about something she experienced as a child and lost relationships with 90% of her family.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what happened that left Ktie so disgruntled but confronting the family over it seems to have gone over like a lead balloon.
DeleteI saw that too
DeleteSure hope it isn't what we think it is...
DeleteSince I wasn't invited to attend the family fight, I don't know what the bone of contention is, but Katie comes across as highly indignant about how the fight turned out.
ReplyDeleteLove and prayers for this family. Miss seeing them on their YouTube channel.
ReplyDeleteThis is like watching a slow moving wreck. The family has spet years saying how their gatherings were great and everyone had a wonderful time. Not so sure why Kate is singing a different tune.
