In a recent Instagram post, Kendra Bates of Suddenly Amish fame made homemade sourdough. She left the Lancaster Amish community. Since then, she has started a series on Instagram making Amish food items. And no other than James left a comment on her post.
Kendra Bates was an OG cast member on Suddenly Amish, but she recently quit. She returned to her life in LA. She appeared in interviews and discussed her experience. Now, it seems she really liked the Amish food to want to make it in her modern life. But what did James comment on her post? How did she react? Keep reading to know the full story.
Kendra Bates recently shared an Instagram post explaining why she left Suddenly Amish. She said reality TV has two sides. One is living the Amish lifestyle, which can be very hard. The other is the show itself. Kendra reminded fans that viewers only see the edited version. Many real conversations never make it on screen, so fans won’t know everything. Kendra stated her Menonites roots made her experience the Amish life.
However, Kendra admitted some parts of the show made her uncomfortable. Because of that, she decided to leave instead of staying just for show business. She also said the experiences gave her the opportunity to grow as a person. Kendra also said she feels thankful to have met the Amish community. Fans supported her choice to choose freely about what she wants. The reality star shared in an interview that the Amish outlook on life also affected her views on modesty and dressing.
Ever since her departure from Suddenly Amish, Kendra has been indulging in more Amish content. She bought a traditional butter churner and tried to make some butter. Recently, she also tried to make some sourdough bread. She posted about it. Her first attempt was not as successful as she wanted. But she tried again, and this time it came out perfect.

In a recent post, she celebrated her successful attempt at making the sourdough. She literally kicked her feet in the air at how gorgeous the bread was. She couldn’t believe that she made the bread well this time. The reality star also tried it with the butter she made and said it was delicious. In the post, James also commented, surprising fans. He wrote, “Getting closer to becoming an Amish wife.”
Kendra also reposted a screenshot of the comment and wrote, “someone come get this man.” James had earlier stated that Kendra had the potential to be a great Amish wife, but sadly, she left before he could see her become one. Now, does she intend to learn all the homemaking skills of a tradwife? She had added the hashtag with one. Probably why James jokingly commented.
Kendra seems to have taken a liking to a few things she learnt in the Amish. Recently, she also baked some muffins, which were supposedly a recipe from Sarah, who is also Amish. Fans are loving the new Amish-inspired posts and want to see more. For more Suddenly Amish updates, follow TV Season & Spoilers.
