Viewers can expect a lot of drama in 7 Little Johnstons season 13. Amber and Trent will be seen meddling in their kids’ love lives in this installment as well.

Jonah moved back in with his parents the previous season after experiencing a near-death situation. As he is now under supervision, he is getting back on track with his life and work.

While he will be seen pursuing business school, he will also begin giving more attention to his relationship with his girlfriend Ashley. However, Jonah will be concerned about his love life as his mother Amber is not quite happy with his girl.

Alex, on the other hand, has also found a girlfriend and will be seen making sweet gestures for her. While Anna will try to find a man for her, Emma will be focused on her career. Elizabeth (Liz) is getting ready to move in with her boyfriend Brice.

In the previous season, the young couple had to ask Liz’s parents (Amber and Trent) permission to live together. In the upcoming installment, Brice and Liz will soon start sharing a home, but the trailer shows that trouble in paradise is awaited.

7 Little Johnstons season 13 preview also showed Trent trying to be healthy after finding out he’s pre-diabetic. In addition to dealing with health and parenting, Trent and Amber will visit their former exchange student Joose in Finland, along with their kids.

The official description of 7 Little Johnstons season 13 reads:

“Relationships and major life events take center stage this season. Determined to make sense of her last failed relationship, Anna undergoes therapy to gain a better understanding of herself and to overcome some of the difficulties she’s been encountering in both love and life. After moving back home, Jonah gets back on track with big plans for his future, committed to finance school and his girlfriend despite Amber’s concerns about their relationship.”

It continued:

“Meanwhile, Alex is head over heels in love with his new girlfriend and plans a special birthday trip to Ohio to visit her. Emma shifts focus towards her career and growing her own business with a little help from the family. Liz and Brice can't wait to finally move in together, but Trent and Amber put the brakes on their dream home. Finally, Amber, Trent, Alex and Emma head to Finland for an epic family vacation to visit their former exchange student, Joose.”
