The Plot:
Blood is thicker than water – but the harsh spotlight of fame can thin it out for some families. Just ask the Gosselins, The Duggars or The Hogans. While fame and fortune can give you almost everything you desire, it certainly doesn’t buy happiness, heal past wounds or solve deep-rooted family issues. VH1 Family Therapy with Dr. Jenn hopes to shed a little light on the complicated and often misunderstood world of celebrity families who still have to grapple with universal issues – but under a microscope.
In the brand new series, each family is facing complex issues – from not successfully handling the spotlight to harmless sibling banter becoming tabloid fodder to messy divorce proceedings playing out on the national stage.
