Life

Sadie Robertson's entire life changed when her family landed their hit A&E reality show. But it wasn't until she was asked to compete on "Dancing With the Stars" in 2014 that the teenager gained her own fame.

Robertson said to an interview, "That was the first time that I was to be separated from my family, and was just by myself, which was really weird but it kind of established who I was."

Robertson came in second place to Alfonso Ribeiro -- she returned to her high school in West Monroe. But not everyone was accepting at first of her newfound fame.

Robertson also told an interview "A lot of people didn't like that...When you're in Louisiana, you literally have a target just on your face. That was really hard at first, but I feel like now everybody's been able to just know that I didn't change. Even though my life changed, I didn't change."

Robertson is the grand daughter of Phil Robertson, founder of Duck Commander. Her parents are Korie Howard Robertson and Willie Robertson, the company's current CEO. She has five siblings; John Luke Robertson, Rebecca Robertson, Willie Robertson Jr, Bella Robertson, and Rowdy Robertson.

Robertson is an author, a speaker, and was the first runner up on Dancing With the Stars Season 19. Robertson has also ventured into acting with roles in God's Not Dead and I'm Not Ashamed and will be launching her "Live Original Tour" tour fall 2016.Robertson has several business ventures including a prom dress line with Sherri Hill, school supplies for DaySpring, jewelry and home goods with Glory Haus, and a fashion line with Rue 21. She also partnered with Roma Boots and worked alongside them in their mission to "give poverty the boot."

Robertson also told an interview that she graduated high school and she's taking some time off to focus on her career despite that most of her friends are now starting college.
