Bringing Up Bates star Zach Bates is becoming more active on social media due to his YouTube cooking channel.

However, many fans were caught off guard when Zach showed a side of himself that was never seen before. Keep reading to see what happened.
Bringing Up Bates: What Is Zach Bates Up To Today?
Zach has been busy making cooking videos over the past few weeks. The Bringing Up Bates star’s YouTube channel continues to grow with 43.9K subscribers. He has already uploaded 117 videos, featuring some of his best recipes. But Zach has also been more creative with his content, as he now includes his family members on his cooking show. He also does Q&As with some of his siblings and parents, giving fans updates about their lives after the show. Zach has also been thriving as a father to five kids. He’s raising his children like how Gil and Kelly Jo raised him and his siblings. But many fans were surprised to see Zach’s “worldly” humor.

Fans Shocked By Zach’s Worldly Humor
Some Bringing Up Bates fans on social media discussed Zach Bates’s unexpected comment on an IG clip of a woman who was experimenting with her spoon by heating it with a lighter. But Zach thought she was doing something illegal, making him leave a comment saying, “Had me in the first half… not gonna lie,” which was a reference to the famous meme from Apollo Hester’s interview in 2014. According to some commenters, they never thought they’d see Zach in the comments section, making a humorous comment about the clip. It’s a breath of fresh air to many fans, and others hope they’ll see more Bates kids doing the same thing in the future.

- “Zach was questioning his algorithm for a second there 😂😂😂😂😂”
- “Nice to see them be a little more “worldly” and find humour in a joke like this actually lol.”
- “Some people (like me) will comment on a video and never go to the users profile.”
- “Zach’s always been very up on drug-related stuff. I think there’s a cut off convo in one of the vlogs where he’s talking to Lawson or Nathan about immigrants trafficking drugs. Probably the cop background.”
- “Exactly my thought. You can’t be completely sheltered and be a cop, at least not a good or well-trained one!”
