Willie, 53, and his wife, Korie Robertson, reflected on a time when he tried to make his own way without his family’s business or their signature style.
Although Willie is now the CEO of the Robertsons' Duck Commander business, he didn’t always plan on following in his family’s footsteps.
“In my 20s, I never would have dreamed I’d have worked at the family business,” he told the oulet. “That’s not where I thought I would end up.”
“Gradually, he kind of started turning more into his dad,” Korie recalled. “The beard started growing, he started wearing more camo and went back to the family business.”
Willie, for his part, added: “You never know how life changes.”

These days, Willie maintains the long beard and hair that viewers first saw on him and his family members—including his late dad, Phil Robertson, uncle Si Robertson and brother Jase Robertson—when Duck Dynasty premiered in March 2012. The reality show aired on A&E for 11 seasons until April 2017.
Season 2 of the show pays tribute to patriarch Phil, who died in May 2025 at age 79.
In the wake of Phil’s death, his legacy lives on through his family, with Willie noting, “I can see parts of Phil in us as his kids and our spouses, and then even our grandkids. Our family motto that was started by Phil was faith, family and ducks in that order.”
