Plot Synopsis

THE BLENDED BUNCH is a one-hour reality series that follows the Shemwells, a large, newly blended family that will face all kinds of challenges as they merge 11 children under one roof and adjust to a new life in Utah. What started with tragedy, manifested into a once in a lifetime love story. Before meeting, Erica, a mother of seven, lost her husband to cancer and Spencer, a father of four, lost his wife in a fatal car crash. Their worlds were completely shattered until they serendipitously met in an online widower support group. Finding love almost immediately, Erica and Spencer exchanged vows and were married after just 13 months. From shifting dynamics within their extended families to step-sibling squabbles and struggles over adoption, these newlyweds are everyday parents who are trying their best to manage it all. Watch as the Shemwells shop with 11 children under the age of 13, potty train toddlers, make dinner for the lively brood, tackle bedtime and more. Erica Shemwell has seven children, four girls and three boys: Landon (12 years old); Emma (10 years old); Lily (9 years old); Sophie (8 years old); Tanner (6 years old); Amelia (5 years old); and Caleb (3 years old). Spencer Shemwell has four children, three boys and one girl: Brayden (12 years old); Harper (8 years old); Avery (6 years old); and Bexley (4 years old).
