The Tragic History Behind The Blended Bunch's Erica And Spencer's Late Spouses

Posted by Tandra Barner on Sunday, May 26, 2024

Since they both lost partners in devastating ways, Spencer and Erica bonded in a way that's pretty unique. This has made blending their family of 11 kids a project they're willing to tackle, but challenging at times. Luckily, they seem to have a strong foundation — and a sense of humor. In a teaser for the show Erica explains, "I think we're like the modern-day Brady Bunch" and Spencer adds, "Except we have no Alice. We need an Alice" (via In Touch Weekly).

Of course, that doesn't mean that it's all really easy. At one point in the trailer, Erica openly muses that perhaps her husband wishes his first wife was still with him, and not her. While speaking to a friend, she says, "Sometimes I really just wonder if there are moments when Spencer wishes that Aimee was here instead of me." The show premieres on TLC Tuesday, March 16 at 9 p.m. (EST).
