The families of Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore are speaking out about the astronauts’ predicament as they remain stranded in space.

The Boeing Starliner capsule they rode on June 5 for an inaugural test mission—which was originally set to last eight days—had experienced thruster failures and helium leaks before docking safely at the International Space Station, prompting NASA to postpone the pair’s return to Earth by months.

“You know, we sort of don’t expect him until February,” Butch’s wife Deanna Wilmore told Knoxville, Tenn. TV station WVLT in a recent remote interview. “February or March.”

Sitting in between the couple’s daughters Daryn, 19, and Logan, 16, Deanna added, “He just takes it knowing the Lord’s in control and that since the Lord’s in control of it, that he’s content where he is.”

As for herself, Butch’s wife said, “You just sort of have to roll with it and expect the unexpected.”
