Big Update!! Mimi is still in jail after being arrested for drunk driving!
It’s been a while since OutDaughtered fans got to see Grandma Mimi, aka Michelle Theriot, on the show. She was the quints’ beloved person and added joy to the show. But trouble came her way as there were reports about her being guilty of getting a DUI charge. It was shocking as the TLC show is considered rather family-friendly.
It’s been many years since the OutDaughtered family even went on a hiatus and came back and did two seasons already. But the one thing in common during the new seasons was that there was no trace of Grandma Mimi. Fans have been curious about her whereabouts. Some are concerned and wonder if Michelle Theriot is still in prison? Is that so?
OutDaughtered: Grandma Mimi Kicked Out Of The Show For Tarnishing Family’s Reputation!?
The TLC viewers are very familiar with the OutDaughtered family. They have been seeing the quints ever since they came into the world. Apart from them, their parents, Adam and Danielle Busby, along with their other family members, have also been a prominent part of the show. This includes Uncle Dale, Aunt Kiki, and of course Grandma Mimi.
However, Grandma Mimi had landed herself in trouble in 2021 for driving under the influence and facing charges for the same. Since then, fans stopped seeing her on the show. Many began to wonder if the channel decided to kick her out as she almost cost the reputation of the show. The parents also don’t feature grandma’s pictures on social media either.
At the same time, Danielle and Adam also avoid people’s questions on social media when they ask them about grandma Mimi’s whereabouts. Some have suspected that they might just be feuding with one another. Others believe that Michelle might still be in prison after the news of her DUI was all over the internet. So, what happened? Where is she?
OutDaughtered: Grandma Mimi Not In Prison! Still Hangs Out With Quints
Grandma Mimi has piqued everyone’s curiosity ever since the news of her arrest made headlines. OutDaughtered fans increasingly became concerned for her. It happened after they couldn’t see her anywhere on the show or social media. But it looks like Grandma Mimi is safe and sound and not in prison. After all, it was a first-time offense.
Due to this, Grandma Mimi got away with a “diversion program” with one year of community supervision. As the case happened in 2021, it’s over by now. Details revealed that the star also had an agreement with the DA about not consuming alcohol or controlled substances for almost a year. So, all’s good now. But Michelle has made her Instagram private.
It seems like when Grandma Mimi got into controversies, she made a decision to make her life private. This could be the reason why she doesn’t appear on TV anymore or on the family’s social media. But fans did spot her hanging out with the quints in one of her Cameo videos.
