Ken Jennings is going through what a lot of parents are right now, and he’s sharing his experience with fans.
On September 10, the Jeopardy! host surprised his followers by sharing an emotional update in regard to his family. Posting photos of a bedroom with a painted mural on Instagram, Ken revealed his daughter Caitlin (whom he shares with his wife Mindy, along with the couple’s son Dylan) had started her freshman year of college earlier in the month. As a result, the TV personality and his wife were now emptynesters for the first time.
“Child 2-of-2 has headed off to college, so we are officially out of kids,” he wrote in the caption. “The vacated bedroom is now a weird liminal space, which is sad. But on the plus side: for the first time in years, it’s clean enough in there to enjoy the old childhood murals I painted. They’re pretty fun! Aaaaand probably getting painted over. 🙁.”
Fans were moved by Ken’s news, and they took to the comments section to send their support. Additionally, they also had a request for him about what he should do with the now empty room.
“Don’t paint over it just yet, Ken! I’ll bet your kiddo will find comfort in that artwork when they visit later this year. 😊,” one person begged in the comments. “Keep it for the grandchildren!! Great clouds, Ken,” another agreed. “Don’t paint over it! ❤️ One day your grandchildren will love it … in the distant future!” a different follower added.
We kind of love that idea, Ken!
