Who Is John-David on 'Duck Dynasty'? Diving Deep Into the Robertson Family Member

A&E expanded the legacy of Duck Dynasty thanks to Duck Dynasty: The Revival, the reality sequel centered around Willie and Korie Robertson. The adult children of the couple are also featured on the show, reminding audiences that this family and their accomplishments are the reasons why Duck Dynasty has been a success for so long. The Robertsons want to go back to the glory days, when 11.8 million people tuned in to witness the premiere of the original show's fourth season.

With so many family members going around Duck Commander, it can be complicated to keep track of who's who in Duck Dynasty. The new revival features John-David Owen, one of the newest members of the group. While viewers might get used to seeing John-David over the course of Duck Dynasty: The Revival's debut season, there are some things to consider in order to know him better. The legacy of the Robertsons might finally be in safe hands thanks to the new generation that will take care of the business.

John-David's inclusion in the Robertson family dates back to the original Duck Dynasty series. John-David was introduced as Willie's assistant during the fifth installment of the original show, with the young man not having any idea of the role he would play for the family later on. It was hard for John-David to get to this point. When he was first introduced to the group, he was initially laughed at by the other men in the series. But everything changed soon enough.

The direct connection between John-David and the Robertson family comes from the fact that the man is Korie's cousin. As a direct family member of Phil Robertson's daughter-in-law, it was easy for John-David to be considered for the role of Willie's assistant. While other members of the family didn't believe that Willie needed an assistant, John-David quickly proved his worth.

John-David married his high school sweetheart, Alyson. A healthy marriage is a strong reason to be respected in the Robertson family, but John-David was really given his time to shine when he grew his beard.

The men seen in Duck Dynasty and Duck Dynasty: The Revival take their facial hair very seriously, turning it into a very important part of their appearance. Once John-David proved that he was a reliable worker with a strong set of facial hair, the Robertson family fully embraced him.

The chaos and drama of Duck Dynasty: The Revival continues. Willie Robertson is still trying to figure out what it means to be a grandfather while he helps his family with the business they have managed for years. At the same time, the family continues to debate whether Bigfoot is real or not. John-David will continue to leave his mark on the family legacy thanks to Duck Dynasty: The Revival.
