Five girls born in under four minutes on April 8, 2015, are now 11, three months into sixth grade, and doing school at the kitchen table. Blayke, 15, is in public high school and learning to drive. Adam and Danielle Busby have not filmed OutDaughtered since 2024. Here is where every Busby stands in November 2026.
Three Months Into Sixth Grade: The Quints at 11
Ava, Olivia, Hazel, Riley and Parker started sixth grade on August 25, posing on the porch with handmade “First Day” and “Homeschool” signs. Danielle wrote, “Bare feet, comfy clothes, and a late morning start to school…” The model is a homeschool co-op: learning at home at their own pace, with some subjects in a classroom setting.
The reasons: academic struggles, dyslexia support, protecting their innocence in middle school, flexibility — and keeping all five together. The girls, who turned 11 in April, all wanted to stay together; their parents said they were not “mature enough” yet for middle school.
A month in, Danielle was honest: “Every day looks a little different, but I feel like the quints and I have adjusted.” Three months in, the routine has held. Episode 108 added one detail: Adam took over the school day while Danielle was away, and it changed his mind. The quints have also started youth group, and they will more than likely not join the podcast until they are older.
Blayke at 15: High School, Driving Lessons, and a New Love of Reading
Blayke turned 15 on April 5, 2026, and she is the only Busby daughter in public high school while her five younger sisters learn at home. The quints stay together in the co-op; Blayke navigates high school on her own terms.
She is also, as Danielle put it, old enough “to be behind the wheel” — learning to drive at 15. She has also found a new love of reading, the couple shared in episode 105, which aired October 22.

Adam now runs his own company, Adam Busby Media, and the podcast he records with Danielle passed 100 episodes on September 17. Its home base is the new studio in the family’s Friendswood house, where episode 108’s 51-minute fan Q&A was recorded on November 12.
Adam also used that Q&A to draw a harder line around the family’s privacy. According to reports, he shared that the FBI once came to the family’s home after some people failed to respect boundaries — without giving details, and without suggesting the family was under investigation.
Danielle: Homeschool Teacher, Podcaster, and Still Healing
Nobody in the house has changed jobs more than Danielle. She is now the quints’ full-time teacher, a weekly podcast co-host, and a patient still managing her own health. In April she laid it out: autoimmune disease, PCOS, thyroid and hormone imbalances, migraines, exhaustion, and knee-surgery news.
In episode 108 of More Than Reality, she explained why she felt God calling her to homeschool the quints, even when she did not want to — and taking over the school day while she was away changed Adam’s mind. As she put it in episode 102, she feels called to do more while also feeling called to slow down.
As of late October 2026, according to reports, TLC has announced neither a renewal nor a cancellation. The answer from September 2025 still stands: “Maybe. Currently not filming or on the schedule to film.” So the November snapshot: six girls growing up fast, two parents building a business and a schoolroom under one roof, and no cameras — for now. If TLC offered one more season around Blayke’s driving lessons and the quints’ sixth-grade year, would you want Adam and Danielle to say yes — or should the five quints stay off camera until they are old enough to choose for themselves?
