Ready for more Mellie? A new season of Gypsy Sisters premieres later this summer on TLC

If last night’s My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding episode featuring the union of 16-year-old Nukkie Stanley and 18-year-old Pookie Small stirred up your hankering for a new season Gypsy Sisters, happy news.

The wild and wooly reality outing featuring Nukkie’s mom Nettie Stanley, her loose cannon aunt Mellie Stanley and other members of the vast Stanley clan will return for a new season at the end of the summer.

Fans of the Stanleys will recall the Stanley Sisters special in which enraged mama Nettie, pregnant Mellie and other female members of the family headed off in a camper to reclaim the then 14-year-old Nukkie who was living with Pookie and his mom, Dovie dad and aspiring-pop-star sister Jackie Dee (who went on to become a Gypsy Wedding favorite in her own right).

With Nukkie now 16 — a perfectly marriageable age in the gypsy community — the Smalls and the Stanleys buried the hatchet and had themselves a wedding in last night’s Gypsy Wedding episode. Nettie and Dovie hugged. Mellie and Jackie danced. Nukkie and Pookie married without incident.

And as a wedding gift for the fans,  TLC released a Facebook video featuring Nettie, new mom Mellie, Kayla, Annie announcing the new season which is set to return the end of the summer.

Are you happy to see the return of the Gypsy Sisters? Who’s your favorite? And do you really think Nukkie and Pookie will get their happily ever after?

My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding airs Thursdays at 9/8CT on TLC.

  1. no, they won’t get their “happily ever after.” there were plenty of scenes showing how abusive Pookie is toward Nukkie. He sometimes tones it down for the cameras, but the cat is out of the bag. He has revealed his ugly, nasty ways toward her too many times. She doesn’t seem to have much self esteem, poor thing, so she just takes this crappy treatment from him without standing up for herself at all. guess this how “gypsy life” is: he gets a slave and a full time maid, she gets belittled, abused, cheated on, possibly beaten up. ah, ain’t love grand? not. No wonder these “romney men” enjoy marriage — i’d enjoy a full time slave myself. these women get the treatment that they’re willing to put up with. no one can help them until they believe that they deserve better. every human being deserves to be treated well. they’re a sad , dysfunctional mess, so no, i don’t think they’ll ride off happily into the sunset. that’s too bad, because she seems like a genuinely sweet and kind girl. she deserves far more than this revolting, nasty porky pig.
