As of January 30, 2025, Phil Robertson, the renowned “Duck Commander” and star of the reality television series “Duck Dynasty,” is alive. Recent rumors circulating about his death are unfounded and have been debunked as a hoax.
In December 2024, Robertson was diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer’s disease and a blood disorder, leading to his absence from the family’s podcast, “Unashamed with The Robertson Family.” His son, Jase Robertson, shared that Phil has been experiencing significant pain and memory challenges. The family is focused on providing him with comfort and support during this time.
Phil Robertson’s life is a testament to resilience and transformation. Born on April 24, 1946, in Vivian, Louisiana, he developed a passion for hunting from a young age. Dissatisfied with the duck calls available in the market, Robertson invented his own in 1972, leading to the creation of the Duck Commander Company in 1973. This venture evolved into a multimillion-dollar business, eventually becoming the centerpiece of the A&E reality series “Duck Dynasty,” which aired from 2012 to 2017.
Throughout his life, Robertson has been open about his personal struggles and the pivotal role of faith in his journey. In his 20s, he faced challenges with excessive alcohol consumption, which strained his marriage to Marsha “Miss Kay” Carroway. A religious awakening led him to overcome these issues, and he became a devout Christian, serving as an elder at the White’s Ferry Road Church of Christ in West Monroe. His memoir, “Happy, Happy, Happy,” co-authored with Mark Schlabach, delves into these experiences and his path to redemption.
In recent years, Robertson has continued to share his perspectives through various media. In 2017, he joined CRTV as a contributor, hosting “In the Woods with Phil,” where he discussed cultural and political issues from his unique viewpoint. In September 2023, “The Blind – The True Story of the Robertson Family” was released in theaters nationwide, detailing the tumultuous early life of Robertson and his family before their rise to fame.
