Lawson Bates is courting, you guys!
The 28-year old reality star confirmed this week that he has as girlfriend who will probably end up being his wife and it's all very good and exciting and unexpected...
January 6, 2021 was a dark day in American history.
A horde of armed white insurgents stormed the Capitol Building in an attempted coup, trying to overturn the election results.
If you're a longtime follower of the Duggar family, the name Lawson Bates probably rings a bell.
Lawson is one of the stars of Bringing Up Bates, which is sort of a Counting On knockoff that also focuses on an absurdly oversized family of fundamentalists.
If you're a fan of the Duggar family, then you're probably at least passingly familiar with Jim Bob and Michelle's infamous courtship rules.
The family describes courtship as "dating with a purpose" -- that purpose being to find a suitable mate with whom to make many babies.
It's a rumor that's been with us for years and simply refuses to die.
No, we're not talking about reports that Jill Duggar is begging to get back on TV because her family is broke.
Is this it? Could it really be happening?!
Might we finally be on the verge of the moment that Duggar fans have been eagerly awaiting for an entire freakin' decade?!
For years now, fans of her family have been obsessing over Jana Duggar's love life -- or lack thereof.
Jana is 28 and single, which is unheard of in her family.
If you watch Counting On online, then you're likely very well aware of the intense fan interest in Jana Duggar's love life.
Dubbed "the Cinderella Duggar," Jana is 27, which makes her practically an old maid in a culture like her family's.
For almost two years now, followers of the Duggars have been eagerly anticipating official word that Jana Duggar is courting Lawson Bates.
The rumors first surfaced back in 2015, and the family's uncharacteristic silence on the subject led many fans to believe it was happening.
Jana Duggar has long been the odd woman out.
While her younger sisters marry and start families, the beautiful, maligned eldest daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle toils away at their behest.
Last week, we reported that Jinger Duggar and Lawson Bates are courting.
If you're not familiar with the name, Lawson is an aspiring singer and star of the reality series Bringing Up Bates, which centers around his life with his 18 siblings.
Are TV's two most famous conservative Christian families about to be united in matrimony and shared hopes for a lucrative spinoff?
It certainly looks that way, as fans are buzzing about rumors that Jinger Duggar is courting Bringing Up Bates star Lawson Bates.
