TLC stars Karen and Derrico are the proud parents of 14 kids, including multiple sets of multiples. But would the Doubling Down With the Derricos couple be willing to add a 15th – or even a 16th and 17th – child to their family? They aren’t ruling it out. Karen and Deon Derrico say they’re ‘blessed’ to be parents to 14 kids Karen and Deon ’s 14 kids range in age from 18-year-old Darian to 4-year-old triplets Dawsyn, De’Aren, and Dyver.
The group includes two singletons, twins, quintuplets, triplets, and “triplins” – the two surviving boys from a set of triplets, one of whom died shortly after birth . All the children were conceived naturally. “Having four sets of multiples back to back? It’s like getting struck by lightning while getting struck by lightning,” Deon said in an early episode of Doubling Down With the Derricos.
To say the Derricos have a full house would be an understatement. (In the new season of Doubling Down With the Derricos , Deon is renovating a new home for his extra-large family.) But Karen and Decon consider themselves fortunate to have as many kids as they do.
“We just wanted as many children as God blessed us to have,” Karen, 44, explained during a May 13 appearance on Sherri (via YouTube ). “We had some losses, some miscarriages. It was like, God, whatever you have for us.
Now, God is very funny ...
we just welcomed them all with open arms.” Karen Derrico reveals whether she’d consider having more kids Sherri host.
