Phil’s unwavering faith has been a trademark of his life, as depicted on A&E’s “Duck Dynasty,” which aired from 2012 to 2017. His trust in God continues to sustain him, Willie said, and the family is hopeful for improvement.
“I know there’s a lot of prayers going up,” Willie added. “It wouldn’t surprise me if he has a turn and ends up doing great—you just never know.”

Korie Robertson, Willie’s wife, shared an emotional post on Instagram that included multiple photos of Phil.
“We’ve been overwhelmed with your beautiful messages of love and prayers for Phil, Miss Kay and our whole family after the news of Phil’s medical diagnosis,” Korie wrote. “It’s been incredible to hear from the thousands, likely millions he has touched through living a life so passionately pursuing Jesus and loving others enough to tell them about him.”
“I’m so thankful for the many meals around the dinner table and the way Phil has [led] our family in prayer to be grateful to God for all things, grateful for this time on planet earth,” she added.
Korie shared her gratitude that people were able to witness Phil’s dedication to the Lord through the reality show. “As you well know, Phil’s hope is in something far greater than the momentary troubles of this illness,” she said. “He would definitely want me to remind you that hope is for you too. Jesus is where it is found.”
