Lawson Bates

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.
