THE LITTLE Couple’s future has been revealed, as the network dropped a major hint after fans have been begging for Jen Arnold and Bill Klein to return to television.
Jen, 47, Bill, 47, and their children Will, 12, Zoey, 10, have been off the small screen since 2019.
The Sun can exclusively reveal Discovery Communications renewed the trademark for The Little Couple on March 14, 2022, despite the show being off the air.
The trademark was first filed in September 2010.
TV RETURN?
The trademark renewal comes as fans have been patiently awaiting the return of the reality TV show since the last episode aired in 2019.
Back in September 2021, the mom of two teased a new season after sharing a photo alongside Bill.
She captioned the post at the time: “Guess who’s back, back again.”

LEGAL TROUBLES
The show postponement is likely due to the duo’s lawsuit with producers.
The legal matter started in June 2016 when producer LMNO Cable Group sued Discovery Communications for $7 million.
In court papers obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, LMNO Cable Group claimed their accountant falsified records to hide hundreds of thousands of dollars in embezzled money.

The company claimed Discovery Communications used the situation to “steal” TLC’s The Little Couple and “put LMNO” out of business.
LMNO and Discovery Communications eventually agreed to a settlement.
But the legal battle wasn’t over, as the couple asked to intervene in the case in May 2017.
According to court papers, they believed they were “entitled to a portion of LMNO’s contingent compensation in The Little People.”
They also alleged in court papers that they felt entitled to a portion of Discovery’s “’adjusted gross revenues’ from certain forms of exploitation of the Program.”
Jen and Bill feared they would “lose valuable monetary and intellectual property rights which would be adjudicated without their interests being represented; nor would any of the current parties represent [Jen and Bill’s] interests adequately or at all,” the court papers stated.
They accused LMNO of breach of contract, fraud, unfair competition, conversion and more.
The parties eventually agreed to mediation and reached a settlement agreement in 2020.
NEW MOVE
A potential Season 15 of the beloved show would follow the family’s move from Florida to Massachusetts.
The family sold their Florida home for $3,640,000 on March 21.
The stars are currently living in a luxury apartment building with the largest unit in the complex featuring two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a den.
Rent for the apartment costs $3,755 a month.

The family is living in the apartment until they complete construction on their partially built home.
The family moved to Massachusetts for her new job at the Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School Teaching Hospital earlier this year.
