Bringing Up Bates: How’s Ellie Bates Today?
Despite her lack of online presence, Ellie would often appear in some of her siblings’ vlogs and social media posts. Kelly Jo also likes to share new photos of her daughter, and many were surprised to see how big she has become. Last April, the Bringing Up Bates star resurfaced with her family as they watched a baseball game. But many were caught off guard to see how mature Ellie has become. It even created speculations that Ellie is on her way to a courtship.
Some fans have dubbed Ellie as one of the most rebellious daughters of Gil and Kelly Jo. She had shown a “snarky” behavior over the years, especially during family events. She’s also known for her close relationship with her brother, Warden, who’s also considered by some fans a rebellious child due to his habit of putting on fake tattoos.
Ellie Wins Fans In Rare Photo With Father
Some fans on social media discussed Ellie Bates’ IG Stories post featuring a throwback photo of her with her father, Gil. The Bringing Up Bates star sent Gil a sweet Father’s Day tribute. But many were surprised by the photo she used, which is a silly picture of Gil sleeping while she was on his lap.
According to Ellie, being a dad to a “living legend” is a full-time job before telling her father, “Rest up King.” Ellie went on to say that raising perfection is clearly hard work. Her sarcastic comments won many fans. Some even thought that Ellie was turning into a Jill Duggar based on her snarky behavior. Regardless, many are supporting how Ellie is acting today.
- “She uses sarcasm, I thought funide had no humor? She surprises me and I like that she’s the rebellious child who is also the one with a lot of sarcasm. His personality intrigues me!”
- “I see Ellie is pulling a Jill Duggar Dillard with her snark towards her dad… 🤔”
- “Wasn’t Kelly’s birthday post for her about forgiving parenting mistakes? She seems to be in with the ‘it girl’ sisters in a lot of their posts, but I do wonder? Either she’s got a great sense of humour or there’s something under the surface.”
Bringing Up Bates: Is Ellie Bates Courting?
There is currently no confirmation that Ellie is courting someone. The Bringing Up Bates star turned 18 last April, and many fans assumed that she’d quickly enter a relationship to leave her family. Others were also impressed by how Ellie has her own look, which is a difficult feat to achieve for a family of 21.
Due to this, some believe that a lot of men will easily fall for Ellie Bates. At this point, Ellie does part-time modeling at her sister Carlin’s clothing business, Bates Sisters Boutique. Just like all of her siblings, Ellie also grew up in homeschool, and it’s unclear if she’ll break the streak by studying in a real college in the future.
