The Septuplets Turn 13
In 2010, the septuplets turned 13, and TLC made a documentary about them, called “America’s Septuplets Turn 13.” Airing on December 28, 2010, the documentary shows how the septuplets celebrated turning into teenagers, including their cakes with 91 candles. New details about their family life transpired from the documentary, including how they used to do ten loads of laundry per week and own two dishwashers, two refrigerators, and two freezers.
The kids are shown doing their chores, with parents finally being able to enjoy some free time for themselves. “It’s so nice to say, ‘Kids, we’re going out for a while. Don’t kill each other. Find supper, ‘” Kenny McCaughey said in front of the camera.
