Duck Dynasty’s Willie & Korie Robertson on Faith, Family, and ‘The Blind’ Movie
It has often been said that everyone has a story to tell. Whether it is a life filled with adventure, an event that is life-changing, or mundane day to day activities spread out over decades, there always seems to be something valuable and worthwhile to share with others.
Most people know Phil Robertson as the Duck Commander. As the patriarch of the highly entertaining reality television showDuck Dynasty, Robertson rose to prominence after inventing a hunting duck call that was unique to all the others. Why? Because it sounded exactly like a duck.
But long before Phil invented the aforementioned duck call and became a reality TV star, he fell in love with Miss Kay and started a family. Sounds downright idyllic, but the truth of the matter is that they didn’t live happily ever after, at least for a long time. Instead, Phil’s demons threatened to tear their lives apart.
In the new movie, The Blind (releasing September 28th), viewers get a glimpse of never-before-revealed moments in Phil and Miss Kay’s lives as he seeks to conquer the shame of his past. Working through the turmoil that handcuffed him in his early adult years, the biopic demonstrates a love story that persevered through the darkest of turbulent moments and rose to create a strong foundation for generations to come.
Son and daughter in-law Willie and Korie Robertson have had a front row seat to watch Phil Robertson’s life as it has unfolded. As the executive producers of “The Blind”, they have worked diligently to craft a film that is not afraid to show the wrinkles and warts of what was once a troubled marriage but one that ultimately shows victory and finding redemption in an unlikely place.
Willie and Korie join us on the Crossmap Podcast to talk about how Phil and Miss Kay’s story has impacted the way they live their lives and how it has shaped their family. Listen as they share about what fueled Miss Kay’s resilience to not throw in the towel and give up on their marriage despite Phil’s indiscretions.
