'Little People, Big World's Matt Roloff Is Unrecognizable in New Photo After Drastic Transformation

Matt Roloff is kicking off the year with a drastic new look—but not all of his fans approve.

In a recent selfie posted on Instagram, the Little People, Big World star posed shirtless on what appeared to be a tropical beach, with turquoise water and a palm tree in the background. His shaggy silver hair was significantly longer than it's been in the past, hanging almost to his shoulders.

While Matt appeared to be in good spirits in the pic, his son Zach Roloff, 34, said things with his dad were “not great" earlier this year.

On an episode of his and wife Tori Roloff's Raising Heights podcast in May 2024, Zach opened up about his relationship with his father.

"It's not like, existent, I guess," he said. "The filming ended, and you just kind of give yourself some space. But then the show airs six months later. It kind of brings up some old wounds."

The father and son's relationship became strained after Matt tried to sell a portion of his property instead of giving it to one of his children or selling it to them at a reduced price.

"Dust is settled, but like, nothing's been fixed or anything," Zach added. "Stuff comes out on social media and you realize that people are thinking the same thing...I don't know, more time might heal."
