These are strange times in the Duggar family.
Obviously, the upcoming Josh Duggar child porn trial is the biggest scandal of the moment, but in a family that size, there's always more than one controversy happening at a time.
Depending on whose story you choose to believe, Joseph Duggar and Kendra Caldwell are either the happiest or the most miserable of all the Duggar couples.
Some say Joseph and Kendra were forced into an arranged marriage, and their respective fathers allowed them no say in the matter.
When beautiful Kendra Caldwell married Joseph Duggar back in 2017, she was only 19 years old.
Now obviously, people in the Duggars' fundamentalist community tend to get married quite young,
Ever since Josh Duggar was arrested on child pornography charges back in April, there's been increased scrutiny on the entire family's financial situation.
The arrest led TLC to finally cancel Counting On, which means Jim Bob and company have officially lost their primary source of income.
Something strange is going on within the Duggar family.
Come to think of it, that's pretty much always the case, but these days, there's a lot of strange stuff going on under Jim Bob's watch.
Lauren Caldwell is the sister of Joseph Duggar's wife, Kendra Caldwell.
If you're a longtime fan (or critic) of the Duggars and their media empire, then you're probably already familiar with Caldwell clan and their importance to Jim Bob.
Just about three months after becoming a mother for the third time, Kendra Duggar has been blessed by another baby-related development:
She is now a sister!
It's only been a few weeks since Kendra Caldwell welcomed her third child.
But it seems that she and Joseph Duggar are already demonstrating that they're the kind of parents who get a little less cautious with each successive kid.
She. Is. Here!
Oh, and she's also totally perfect and amazing in every conceivable way.
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.
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.)
Joe and Kendra Duggar would like your attention.
They have a rather important announcement to make.
If you're a longtime Duggar fan, you're probably familiar with the name Lauren Caldwell.
Lauren is the sister of Kendra Caldwell, who is married to Joseph Duggar.
Are the Duggars hillbillies?
The answer to that question may seem obvious at first, but it's more complicated than it appears.
Fans across the Internet have one simple question for Kendra and Joseph Duggar.
These individuals have taken a look at the married couple's latest array of Instagram photos and they would just like a response to the following inquiry:
Last month, the world learned that Kendra Duggar is pregnant with yet another child.
The news came as somewhat of a shock, as the 22-year-old just welcomed her second baby, daughter Addison Rae, in November of 2019.
Joseph and Kendra Duggar announced a miraculous surprise this week:
You may not believe this, but congratulations are once again in order for a member of the Duggar family.
Okay, fine. You may believe it.
For a while, it looked as though Kendra Caldwell was well on her way to becoming the one of most popular members of the Duggar family.
Fans loved her vibrant personality, and her crowd-pleasing social media posts earned her hundreds of thousands of followers.
In recent months, several Duggar daughters have decided to rebel against Jim Bob, which has caused some of them to lose popularity among the family's most diehard fans.
But Duggars are never in short supply, and one of the newest members of the family was ready and willing to take Jill and Jinger's place at the top.
We've talked at length about the various ways in which the children of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have failed to thrive in adulthood.
As much as the father of 19 prides himself on raising his kids with a puritan work ethic, several of them seem to have had a hard time finding financial success of their own.
Before we realized the extent of Jim Bob's control-freak megalomania or understood just how bonkers the Duggar courtship rules really are, the one thing everyone knew about the Duggar family was that they are really, really big on making babies.
The other revelations came later, and these days, the Duggars are gawked at for reasons that go well beyond the sheer size of the clan.
For over a month now, the coronavirus pandemic has been altering the landscape of American life like no other event in modern history.
While our nation's frontline workers have been called upon to put their lives on the line, most of us find ourselves faced with a much simpler task -- staying at home.
We probably don't need to tell you that most members of the Duggar family like to exercise strict control over their public image.
But for all of their effort, the Duggars can't control every aspect of their relationship with their fanbase, and sometimes, they're blindsided by a truly unexpected development.
