Duggar News

For months now, Jill Duggar has been feuding with her family and keeping her distance from her overbearing parents.

Jill never seemed like a likely candidate for rebellion, as she spent her teens and early twenties doing exactly as her parents said.

She. Is. Here!

Oh, and she's also totally perfect and amazing in every conceivable way.

It's impossible to enter into a discussion about the Duggar family without mentioning the very particular set of religious beliefs and customs that dominate most of their waking hours.

The family's ultra-conservative views have been a top focal point for both fans and critics, with the former praising the Duggars for their piety, and the latter condemning them for their archaic views.

Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald would like your attention.

They have a very special announcement to make.

When Jinger Duggar married Jeremy Vuolo back in 2016, fans looked it as her way of boldly asserting her independence.

That's a somewhat ironic interpretation, as getting married at a very young age is often viewed as a surrendering of independence.

As we reported last week, it looks as though Anna Duggar is pregnant with her seventh child.

However, the Duggars have yet to make any sort of public announcement on the subject.

We probably don't need to tell you that the Duggars have some bizarre customs and beliefs when it comes to dating and relationships.

The Duggar courtship rules are almost as famous as the family itself, and for good reason:

The Duggars are very big on conformity.

To the extent that it's possible, they all want to look, dress, talk, and eat like each other.

As we've discussed many times in the past, the Duggars are obsessed with sex.

In their youth, when they're single, abstinence and the fear of temptation dominate their every waking hour.

If you're hoping that the Duggar family might one day join the 21st century, we're afraid you're out of luck.

And if you're hoping that they'll eventually catch up with the ideals and customs of the 20th century -- well, you're gonna have to resign yourself to the fact that the progress will be very, very slow.

Making babies is what the Duggars do.

It's quite literally what they're famous for.

It's no secret that Jill Duggar is horny for Derick Dillard. They're married.

But these days, some fans are feeling the same way ... and even they're not sure how they feel about it.

On Sunday, tens of millions Americans tuned in to watch Tom Brady and the Tampa Bucs annihilate Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LV.

Usually, the Duggar clan opts out of secular celebrations, especially ones that involve such sinful activities as drinking, gambling, and listening to the Weeknd croon about boning Bella Hadid.

If you know anything about the Duggars, you know the whole family is strangely obsessed with sex.

That may sound like an odd statement, considering they're a bunch of evangelicals who believe sex was created by the devil, but it's totally possible to be obsessed with something you hate.

Jinger Duggar has been in the news a lot in recently, which is somewhat surprising.

After all, she's generally regarded as the least problematic Duggar, and since she lives a thousand miles away from the rest of the family, she usually doesn't get caught up in all their scandals and nonsense.

For several years, Jinger Duggar had a reputation as the most rebellious member of her family.

Jinger was the first to wear pants among her sisters; she married a man her father wasn't crazy about, and together, the two of them moved out of state.

Back in September of 2019, Anna Duggar's sister, Susanna Keller married York Bridges in a smaller version of the evangelical wedding ceremony we've seen so many times on Counting On.

But in a number of significant ways, Susanna's situation was different from any that the family had previously seen.

Jinger Duggar is commonly regarded as one of the happiest of Jim Bob and Michelle's offspring.

Of course, the reason for her perceived contentment is the fact that Jinger was never a slave to her parents' ultra-strict code of conduct the way some of her siblings are.

John David Duggar and Abbie Burnett are among the least controversial members of the extended Duggar clan.

But that doesn't mean they're immune to being raked over the coals for their more boneheaded decisions.

When you think of the Duggar family, affairs of the heart and romantic entanglements are probably not the first things that spring to mind.

While it's true that the Counting On clan has been involved in just about every type of scandal over the years, their courtships and resulting marriages are usually fairly straightforward, passion-free affairs.

News of Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey's engagement broke just over two months ago, right as Justin turned 18.

But barely legal though he may be, the Duggars are not ones for long engagements.

When it comes to marriage and procreation, the members of the Duggar clan don't believe in wasting time.

The fertility cult freaky religious sect they belong to teaches that it's the sacred obligation of every Christian woman to have as many children as physically possible, so that they might one day outnumber the non-believers and rule the world.

In the years since 19 Kids and Counting first made the Duggars a household name, we've witnessed quite a few of the family's courtships.

In fact, Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey's is the tenth such relationship.
