Jennie Garth's new CMT reality show, Jennie Garth: Little Bit Country,will give us all a chance to see what has been going on in the star's life in the last several months.

Maybe we'll get a sense of what led up to Tuesday's news that she and husband Peter Facinelli are ending their 11-year marriage.

We can tell you that the show has been in production for several months, and cameras are still rolling on Garth's farm in Los Olivos, Calif. But we shouldn't expect to see Facinelli. He does not appear in the series, or hasn't so far.

It's more about Jennie doing her Green Acres thing, as we see the former Hollywood starlet, her three daughters and her new assistant, Corinne, trying to enjoy the simpler life on the farm doing things such as buying a cow and her calf.

In a clip, she tells her young daughter,"See how close the baby sticks to his mommy? That's all a baby needs, his momma. Just the two of them. That makes a family." And later says to the camera, "Being out here on my own with the girls is not going to be easy, but I know it's the right thing for us right now. I feel it in my heart. I'm excited about what's next."

The show debuts on CMT on April 20.
