Back in 2012, Devonda and James Friday were featured on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition after adopting five siblings so they could stay together. The show is famous for giving deserving families their dream homes and this North Carolina couple seemed to fit that criteria, which is why the TV show built them a 3,900-square-foot house.

But the two oldest children have now come forward claiming their parents kicked them out of the house soon after filming wrapped. "I felt like they were my mom and dad. I loved them like they were my real parents. I did," Chris Friday, one of the older children told WS-OCTV. "What they did to us was just wrong. (They) threw us all out." Chris says he and his sister, Kamaya, were sent to group homes because of their "bad attitudes," but thought it was only temporary.

However, the parents claim the older kids wanted to leave by choice, not by force. "Listen, no one kicked Chris or Kamaya out of the home," James told WS-OCTV. The three younger children are no longer living in the house either and are believed to be at separate homes, but James says he couldn't comment on this as the Department of Social Services is involved.

Before the show, the family lived in this home which didn't offer enough space for the seven family members, plus additional foster children.

With the help of 3,000 volunteers, the family was gifted a spacious home with more than enough room for everyone.

The couple was also given a storefront from the show for their non-profit, House of Hope. However, the location at the Lincolntown shopping center is still empty, despite the show airing four years ago. "I know it was all about the money," Chris says. "From the first day, it was all about the money."
