Jim Bob Duggar

If you're a longtime fan of the Duggar clan, then you're probably familiar with the name Laura DeMasie.

Laura is Jana Duggar's best friend, and some believe her to be much more than that.

Given the ultra-strict, ultra-conservative nature of their upbringing, it's no surprise that several of Jim Bob Duggars' children have chosen to forge their own paths in adulthood.

The most famously rebellious Duggar is Jinger, who chose to marry a man her father wasn't crazy about, move out of state, and flout the infamous Duggar dress code by wearing pants.

As Duggar fans (and viewers who love to hate-watch) have observed, Duggar courtships are getting shorter and shorter.

Patriarch Jim Bob will do anything to keep his kids chaste until marriage, even if it means marrying them off sooner.

Earlier this week, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar touched down in Central America, eager to spread the word of Jesus around town.

But while that may remain their goal, many users of the Internet have responded to Instagram photos of the couple in Honduras with a few words of their own.

When Josh Duggar molested five young girls, he avoided arrest and prosecution with the help of his parents.

In the years since the scandal came to light, many Duggar fans have hoped that the long arm of the law would eventually catch up to Josh.

Hard to believe, but it's been almost a full year since Derick Dillard was fired from Counting On.

Fans are mostly of the opinion that the show is better off without D-Dill, though that might have less to do with his camera presence and more to do with the reason he was axed from the show.

If you're a diehard Duggar fan, you may have noticed the absence of "rebellious" cousin Amy in recent months.

That's no accident, as sources say Amy was essentially kicked out of the family back in June.
