Well, Jeremy also had to suffer the same fate, and he had to move on to a new farmhouse in Hillsboro. While Molly is happily married to her husband Joel, and they live in Washington, Jacob is the last one standing. While he has no intentions of buying the farm, he works on the property. Well, the LPBW fans feel that Matt’s bias was quite evident through his posts.
