In 2010, Trig Palin appeared on the reality TV series "Sarah Palin's Alaska," which ran for one season until 2011 and centered on the Palin family's life in Alaska. The cameras had stopped rolling when Trig started school in 2016, who was then 8 years old. By 2018, the former governor opened up to WJLA, saying that Trig was calling the shots at home. "The most challenging thing is trying not to look too far into the future and being scared of what perhaps Trig would face," Palin had said. "I'm just so thankful that he's got the big extended family with his big brother and big sisters. He's always gonna be taken care of."
No one expects smooth sailing for Trig and his mom, but it was heartbreaking all the same to hear that in March 2021, Palin told People that she and some of her children, including 12-year-old Trig, had contracted COVID-19. In the statement, Palin revealed that, after testing positive, she immediately went into isolation. "I then observed symptoms in my son Trig, who curiously is the most enthusiastic mask-wearer, and after our numerous negative tests over the year, he tested positive," she said. "Children with special needs are vulnerable to COVID ramifications, so with a high fever he was prescribed azithromycin, which really seemed to help, and I increased amounts of vitamins I put in his puréed food." Luckily, Trig and the rest of the Palin family seem to have recovered from the virus just fine.
