They continued with the back and forth until the mother-of-two asked the father-of-eleven to quit while he is ahead.The fugitive that sparked the entire banter is Leonard Trujillo.

His capture is part of the new show the Chapman family is filming "Dog Most Wanted," and they traveled with their entire crew to get the fugitive. They had assistance from the Rocky Ford Police Department, and according to the Chief of Police, Angelo Grigio, the bounty hunters did most of the work.

This capture is coming amid Beth's battle with cancer, but she is not letting the sickness slow her down. In early May, she appeared at the Source Church with her husband to share her story with the congregation.

Duane, while introducing her mentioned feeling scared when he thought he might lose her, but the TV star had faith that she would make it, and God confirmed it.

Beth on her part said facing her immortality made her wonder how her family would fare if she didn't make it, but despite the doubts and questions, the couple is holding on to their faith and focusing on spending time with their loved ones.
