Alongside the main family, the show occasionally features their extended family and friends from time to time, who are also seen as equally likable.
One notable character was Danielle’s mother, Michelle ‘Mimi’ Theriot. Grandma Mimi was a significant part of the Busby household. She used to take care of the Busby kids occasionally. However, she has not appeared on the TLC show for quite some time now. So, what happened to Grandma Mimi? Where is she now? Let’s find out.
OutDaughtered: Where Happened to Danielle’s Mother Mimi?
The Busby family is one of the most wholesome casts on TLC. Fans adore Adam, Danielle, and their adorable set of daughters.

Danielle’s mother, Michelle Theriot, affectionately known to OutDaughtered fans as Grandma Mimi, has also been a beloved character on the show, sharing memorable moments with the Busby family.
However, it’s been a while since Mimi has appeared on the show. The Busbys have kept their tongue-tied about her absence, refraining from mentioning her or posting about her on social media. Notably, Danielle did not pen an emotional message for Mimi on Mother’s Day this year, fueling speculation that the family may have distanced themselves from Granda Mimi after her DUI arrest.
In October 2020, Mimi was arrested for drunk driving in League City, Texas. Although she spent a short time in jail, she avoided further incarceration by completing community service and attending a year-long diversion program that required her to abstain from alcohol.
The news of the arrest went viral on the internet, damaging the image of the picture-perfect OutDaughtered family. Despite being a reality TV star, Mimi did not issue an apology. Since then, she has also not appeared on the TLC show
, leading to speculations about a possible rift with the Busbys.
