DANI’S NIGHTMARE American Pickers star Danielle Colby shares emotional update with fans after tornado ripped through her Illinois town

AMERICAN Pickers star Danielle Colby shared an emotional update about her children in her new post.

The American Pickers star revealed what happened when a tornado tore through her neighborhood in Orion, Illinois.

While her “house was shaking,” Danielle, 47, hid “under a table in the basement until” the tornado passed through.

In the Instagram post, the History Channel star admitted: “Fortunately, I cleaned out the garage right before the tornadoes hit and put our cars away.”

Although there was a small amount of damage to her home, the burlesque dancer shared what happened when the windstorm struck her daughter Memphis’ home.

The 21-year-old OnlyFans model suffered “damage to her garage,” but her home was “still standing.”

Danielle also mentioned her son, Miles, 26, sent her a frightening video of water pouring “from his pipes in the basement.”

The reality star captioned her lengthy post: “I’m thankful that the tornado started forming over our neighborhood, and we did not feel the full force of nature yesterday.

“My heart goes out to all those who did.”

She closed: “We are all safe, humans and animals, and ready for a little bit of cleanup today. Sending everybody love and hoping everybody made it out of the storms. ”

Fans jumped in the comments section and basked in knowing the hostess “was safe from the storm.”

HER RELATIONSHIPS
Before rising to fame from her TV gig, Danielle lived a modest life with her children’s father, Chad Cushman – who is now her ex-husband.

The exe share their son, who was born in 1996, and their daughter, who was born in 2000.

The former couple tied the knot back in 2004.

Danielle has moved on from the split, and is currently engaged to Jeremy Scheuch.

After dating for over seven years, the couple got engaged in 2020.

THE RATINGS DIASTER?
Meanwhile, viewers have been tuning in and out of American Pickers during its 24th season.

Brothers Mike and Robbie Wolfe – who took over from fired Frank Fritz, 57 – returned with Danielle as co-hosts in January.

The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed the ratings have increased as the March 8th episode of the History Channel program brought in about 844,000 viewers.

During the installment, Mike went on a tour at the Packard Plant property in Detroit, Michigan.

The ratings picked up after 711,000 viewers tuned in for the March 1st episode.

In January, the season 24 premiere kicked off to promising numbers, with about 943,000 viewers tuning in.

One reason behind the dismal numbers might be the absence of fan-favorite Frank.

Fans have boycotted the program since Frank’s firing and have slammed Robbie as his replacement.
