Jeff Beitzel’s Kids: Sublime

 

 

Someone did a good job raising these kids, despite Jeff Beitzel's many marriages and many women. Lizzie, Jill and Jake have been able to edit themselves for television in a refreshingly normal, well-behaved way.

We have seen small segments featuring them, but they seem to tolerate Jeff’s relationship with Gretchen in a matter of fact way. Even in the segment when she is throwing that gaudy ring in their faces, they are quite subdued. They also look normal, a change from Ryan Vieth and his tats, Kara Keough and her breast implants, or Raquel Curtin with her….everything

On train wreck television with four seasons of dysfunctional offspring, Briana Wolfsmith being the one exception, Jeff Beitzel’s kids are a breath of fresh air. Lizzie stated on the last episode “we should be here”. Can you imagine Shane, Ashley, or Michael caring for a sick parent? Short answer: No.

They must be the children of wife #2/5, the one Judy Fike , Jeff’s sister and their aunt, speaks of on the message board. A friend and neighbor in Michigan also speaks fondly of this wife. Jeff must have realized she was great, he married her twice, only to break her heart in the end. Jeff's life was a true soap opera.

She must be quite sublime, also.

Edited to add:  Sharon Beitzel   wife #3, is the mother of Jake and Jill.  Lizzy is a family friend.
