What happened to these families?


I loved this series so much but the one thing that I HATE is when its over... its OVER. We don't get updates on the families a year later... two years later, etc. That's the worst part about reality shows. It gives you an update a short time later but after that we are left hanging. I'd love to know where they are now. Are the Clunes still married? I had heard they got a divorce just like the Glenns. What happened to the kids? ANYTHING! If anyone has any information on these families or perhaps any new PBS shows along this same time please share:) Thanks!!!

I know what happened to 3 of the clunes, the brooks and 2 of the glenns...o.o

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger!

If you know...what happened to them?

Nate Broosks became an Algebra Teacher, the Glenns split up and the wife(forgot her name) got remarried and the Clunes still live in Temecula...their daughter Tracy smokes and drinks now.

Well isn't that cute. Temecula is 10+ miles from the coast. Gordon's "mansion" was on the coast. Tracy drank and smoked in the show. And while the first assertion may be correct, being that two are "revelations" with little or no merit, I smell bs. Anyhoo, what a great show.

We are all aware of the post show marital status of the "shrew" (tho, I doubt the "remarried" bit;oh my, think of the humanity) but all are curious as to whether they all found some sort of happiness after FH. I hope they have, and that all are doing well.

Tracy was a niece!

reply

Its not BS! I can even prove to you that what I'm saying is true. Tracy Clune and Nate Brooks both have myspaces...I've chatted with them.

Aine is Gordon Clune's daughter, not Tracy. Tracy is - I believe- Gordon's brother's child. Tracy's home was in Temecula during the show, she said so during the after-interview in the pool. Being that Tracy is a "Clune," I guess technically what you said was true, but Gordon's "mansion" was in the 'BU according to the show both in narrative and image. I'd love to know whether the other poster's assertion that Adrienne divorced Gordon is true though. They seemed to get along so well under less than ideal circumstances with common goals. It would be a shame for them to have split. In Mark's case, god bless him; although I do wish Karen happiness.

Weird about Nate. Being just a math teacher seems sort of pedantic given his ability. I hope his father's still kicking around. Rudy rocked!

As I said on another thread, I ran in to Gordon Clune at LAX while waiting for my fiance's flight to come in from England. He TOLD me that he and his wife divorced, so I know that for a fact. Whether you choose to believe that, is up to you, but I know what he said to me.

ummm i go to school with aine and for anybody who cares they arent divorced they seem like a relatively happy family.

Aine seemed like a sweet kid. Glad they are still doing ok and her folks are still married. I'd love to see pictures of the little boys in the show. I bet they changed so much! They were such cute little guys. I wonder if Nate and his wife ever had kids?

reply

Yeah, all is right with the universe. Seems Gordon and Mark prolly look the same to some people. Glad the Clunes are together. Hope the girls and Adrienne are well.

reply

according to tracy clune's myspace, she is married and a comment on her wall hints that she might be having a baby soon. Life happens fast.

reply

what's her myspace address??? Thanks!

here is an article i found about the whole house series'.

I thought this part was interesting, because during the series and then when they show what happen to them afterward, you could tell that Mr. Glenn was 'homesick' for Montana, or at least that life.

The House series, and especially Frontier House, remind viewers of what’s best about America’s can-do spirit, Barnhart says. The experiences are so life-transforming that one Frontier House participant, Mark Glenn, ended his marriage and quit his job to return to Montana, he adds.
