Nearly seven years after Roseanne Barr’s character was killed off on The Conners, Us Weekly got an exclusive look at the actress’ private life in Texas. Barr’s son Jake Pentland revealed that she is living with him and his wife, calling Barr “the best grandma” to their two daughters. Barr has enjoyed her quality time with her grandchildren on the family’s 30 acres of “lush” property. “Roseanne also drives the tractor often, which allows her to mow the lawn. She drives around,” Pentland told Us. “She occasionally runs into trees, but just keeps the yard up.” The mother-son duo are also collaborating on “a weekly podcast,” but Pentland hinted that fans might catch another glimpse of Barr on the small screen, teasing, “You never know.” Keep reading below for more hot stories:
