Production

The show begins with the couple having just moved to Houston, Texas, where the series has documented the customized building of their home and attempts to have a child. Jen is a neonatologist[2] who works at the Texas Children's Hospital, and Bill is a medical supplies and telemarketing businessman.[3][4]

They were originally introduced in a one-hour TLC special, Little People: Just Married. Season 1 of the show premiered on May 26, 2009. Season 2 premiered on October 27, 2009. On February 22, 2010, TLC renewed The Little Couple for a third season consisting of 20 episodes.[5] The mid-season finale aired after 9 episodes on July 27, 2010, and season 3 returned on October 12, 2010.

Jen's mother Judy manages the store.[11] Season 5 began on March 20, 2012, and follows Bill and Jen as they move into their custom-built dream home and launch a brand-new business.[12][13] In March 2013, they adopted their son, Will, from China. The adoption of their son, who also has dwarfism, is featured in Season 5.[14] On October 15, 2013, they adopted a daughter, Zoey, also a little person, from India. The series went into an hiatus on June 4, 2013,[15] and returned on August 13, 2013.[16]

In December 2013, Jen revealed that she was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer, stage 4 choriocarcinoma, due to a non-viable pregnancy she had suffered in September 2013. She allowed the cameras to document her struggle.[17][18]
