We've known for quite some time about the internal divisions within the Duggar clan.
But now, it seems that the ongoing war is about escalate in dramatic fashion.
2020 was a year of humiliating public defeat for Jed Duggar.
Jed ran for office in order to follow in his father's footsteps, but his first foray into the political arena did not go according to plan.
Anna Duggar posted what she believed to be a cute photo on her Instagram page late last week.
Instead of basking in the allegedly precious nature of this snapshot, however, followers instead are studying it closely and asking the question down below...
Jinger Duggar has had a very eventful 2020.
In addition to the struggles that we all grappled with, Jinger pleased both her parents and her diehard fans by expanding her small, Los Angeles-based family.
Duggar fans know how much Joe Duggar and Kendra Caldwell love the spotlight.
It turns out that they also love Christmas lights. So much so that they'll endanger their kids to go see them.
Even though Jeremy Vuolo has some weird ideas about things, most fans think of him and Jinger Duggar as more grounded and mainstream than her family.
Unfortunately, it looks like he considers wearing a mask to be just for show, but he ditches it as soon as he attends his massive church in the middle of L.A.
Unlike much of the Duggar brood, Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard don't abide by Jim Bob's tyrannical rules.
One example of many is Jill exposing her children to media that isn't Duggar approved or even nominally Christian in origins.
When you think of the Duggar family, "wholesome" and "pious" might be among the first words that spring to mind.
(Of course, "brainwashed," "ignorant," and "bigoted" might also pop into your head, but that's a conversation for another time.)
There's a great deal of debate over whether or not public figures should post photos of their kids on Instagram.
Some celebs are so strongly opposed to the practice that they'll digitally edit out their child's face should the offspring wander into a group shot.
People are always eager to see Jana Duggar take a stand against Jim Bob ... but they are so often disappointed.
It doesn't get much more disappointing than seeing Jana and her brother strolling through a store, no mask in sight.
Jim Bob Duggar just got put in his place.
By his very own sister.
These are interesting times in the Duggar family, and we're gaining an unprecedented look at what goes on in the Counting On clan when the TLC cameras aren't rolling.
While the family used to present a united front -- all members equally committed to concealing their darkest secrets and strangest customs from the public -- that's no longer the case.
Well, Jedidiah Duggar's political career may not have gotten off to a very promising start.
But at least he's playing the part of a politician by carrying on a secret affair!
Anna Duggar has taken a break from praying to God on behalf of Donald Trump...
... in order to put a social media troll in his/her place.
It's a Thanksgiving miracle for the Duggar family!
Moments ago, Jinger Duggar and husband Jeremy Vuolo announced that they have welcomed their second child!
When the Duggars first arrived on the reality TV scene back in 2008, they attracted the attention of curious viewers for two reasons:
They had a ton of kids, and they were very, very religious.
As has been very, very well-documented for quite a number of years now, the Duggar family cares about the sanctity of life.
To what extent?
If Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard don't have their own reality show by the time the year is out, then 2020 has truly been a total waste of time.
Derick's feud against Jim Bob Duggar has led to the Dillards essentially going rogue, tossing out the rules Jill was raised with, and spilling some closely-guarded secrets to very grateful Duggar fans.
This week, Jill Duggar shared surprising details about her sex life, telling fans about her bedroom games with husband Derick Dillard.
Fans got on her case about "oversharing," but Jill is clapping back.
Now that Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey are engaged, they're not wasting any time.
And it looks like Justin is following in Jinger's footsteps: joining a new church and moving to Texas.
Earlier this week, we reported on the surprising news that Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey had gotten engaged.
This was unexpected, but not because they'd only been courting two months.
As we reported earlier this week, Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey are engaged after what appeared to be a very brief and very intense courtship.
Now, Duggars getting engaged at a very young age is obviously nothing new -- but Justin took it to a new level.
