Roseanne Barr didn’t just play a mom on TV, the actress has expanded her own family off screen over the years.

Barr started off doing stand-up comedy before becoming a household name for her lead role on Roseanne, which ran from 1988 to 1997. The series was briefly revived in 2018 but came to an end after Barr’s exit from the series amid controversial social media posts. The story transformed into The Conners, which was created without Barr’s involvement and ran from 2018 to 2025. (She never made an appearance on the series.)

“I just can’t bear it, so I don’t [watch],” Barr told The Los Angeles Times in February 2023. “When they killed my character off, that was a message to me, knowing that I’m mentally ill or have mental health issues, that they did want me to commit suicide.”

She continued: “They killed my character … And all of that was to say thank you for bringing 28 million viewers, which they never had before and will never see again. Because they can kiss my ass.”

Off screen, Barr has continued to thrive in her personal life after making an initial move to Hawaii before settling down in Texas.

“We have 30 acres and live up in what they call ‘Hill Country,’” Barr’s son Jake Pentland exclusively shared with Us Weekly in April 2025. “Roseanne also drives the tractor often, which allows her to mow the lawn. She drives around. She occasionally runs into trees, but just keeps the yard up.”
