Jill Duggar Dillard shocked the world when she released a tell-all book that actually did spill the tea on her infamous family. Duggar family followers were skeptical that Dillard would share actual secrets about her family after her sister, Jinger Vuolo, released her own memoir months earlier. Vuolo’s memoir bypassed the more salacious aspects of her upbringing. Now, it looks like another Duggar family member is interested in penning a book. Jim Bob Duggar’s niece, Amy Duggar King, hinted at a special project in a recent TikTok, and it looks like it might be a book.

Jill and Derick Dillard have emerged as the Duggar family rebels. Though they’ve broken away from the rest of the Duggar family in recent years, their romance started just like most other Duggar family courtships. Their early marriage mimicked the early marriages of Jill’s siblings, too. Let’s take a look back at how Jill Dillard and Derick Dillard’s relationship started.
How did Jill and Derick Dillard meet?
Jill and Derick Dillard’s early relationship was captured on 19 Kids and Counting. While younger sister Jessa Seewald was courting her now-husband, Ben Seewald, around the same time, the siblings’ relationships could not have started more differently. Jessa met Ben at church when the Seewald family traveled to the Duggar Family’s home base. Whether they traveled explicitly so Ben could meet Jessa is up for debate. Regardless of why the Seewalds were in town, a meeting happened, and the couple ended up together.

Jinger Duggar Vuolo has been on her own journey ever since marrying Jeremy Vuolo in 2016. The two moved out to California, have welcomed two kids, and in early 2023, Jinger released her memoir, “Becoming Free Indeed.” Since then, her older sister Jill Duggar has released a memoir of her own called “Counting the Cost” that detailed everything from her strict upbringing to her falling out with her parents.
While Jinger has said she supports her older sister, she seemed to suggest that she and Jill don’t regularly talk much.

Jinger and her husband recently appeared on Tamron Hall’s talk show, where she discussed how she felt about Jill writing her memoir — and Jinger had nothing but nice things to say.
“Jill’s a brave girl,” Jinger said.

Following the release of Jill Dillard’s book, Counting the Cost, several Duggar family members have returned to social media. It is unclear whether they are trying to deflect attention from the inflammatory memoir or simply cash in on renewed interest in the family. Regardless of the motives, Duggar family followers are getting more information about the family than they have in years. In a recent YouTube upload, Joy-Anna Forsyth and Austin Forsyth revealed they are not members of the Duggar family’s ultra-conservative Christian Ministry, the Iblp, and never have been.

Anyone who has followed the Duggar family on 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On likely knows that their picture-perfect life has unraveled in recent years. Their daughters, Jinger and Jill Duggar, have both released memoirs about the difficulties growing up in the family, while Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar’s oldest son, Josh Duggar, is currently serving a 12-year prison sentence for accepting child sexual abuse material. It’s a far cry from the no-trouble life the parents claimed to have while filming the family’s TLC show.
Jill recently released a memoir, and in it she explains that several of her siblings have finally started questioning her parents’ intentions — but it wasn’t until Josh’s criminal trial.

While most reality TV fans have their eyes affixed to Jill Dillard, thanks to the release of her book Counting the Cost, she isn’t the only Duggar dropping some interesting tidbits of information. In an attempt to take attention away from Jill Dillard’s scathing memoir, Jessa Seewald has returned to social media. She has uploaded a YouTube video and posted more than a dozen times on Facebook during the leadup to the release of Jill’s book. In her YouTube upload, Jessa Seewald and her husband, Ben Seewald, traveled around Florida, checking out filming spots for The Truman Show. That might not seem significant, but Jinger Vuolo has also mentioned the cult classic film. For siblings who were not allowed to watch much mainstream entertainment, it’s interesting they would both be a fan of a movie all about a man living his life as part of a reality TV show.

Josh Duggar Was Allowed to Sit in on Jill Dillard and Jessa Seewald’s Infamous Megyn Kelly Interview
Following Josh Duggar’s molestation scandal in 2015, Jill Dillard and Jessa Seewald sat down with Megyn Kelly for an interview. The painful and heartwrenching interview is one that Duggar family critics have referenced as proof that Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar monetized their children and their pain at all costs. Jill Dillard laid out exactly how the interview happened in her new book, Counting the Costs. She also shared one disturbing, previously unknown detail. The mother of three, who was also one of Josh’s victims, revealed that Josh Duggar was allowed to stay in the room while Jessa and Jill discussed the molestation incidents.

Duggar family followers suspected Jessa Seewald reappeared on the social media platform to deflect attention from Jill Dillard’s upcoming book. While the upload could have been coincidental, what’s happened since likely isn’t. Jessa has bombarded Facebook followers with dozens of posts, and family critics are certain her recent activity is strategic. Before the more than a dozen posts during the lead-up to the release of Counting the Cost, she had gone mostly silent on socials following backlash from her miscarriage videos.

Jessa Seewald has finally confirmed the pregnancy Duggar family followers knew was coming with a YouTube announcement. Followers have theorized that Jessa was expecting for several months but was holding off announcing for various reasons. She appeared in a social media post last month with a noticeable baby bump. Their suspicions have been confirmed, but the timing of her announcement feels especially transparent. Jessa uploaded her video three days before Jill Dillard’s bombshell memoir hits the shelves. Is Jessa’s video an attempt to deflect attention from Jill’s book? Maybe, but there could also be a financial reason for her oddly timed upload.

The Duggar family is constantly expanding. Since 2008, eleven of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s children have married, but do all of the Duggar in-laws have a connection to the Iblp, the controversial ministry featured in Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets? Some do, and some don’t.

Josh Duggar was the first Duggar to get married. His 2008 wedding to Anna Duggar was documented on 19 Kids and Counting. He proposed to Anna on her 20th birthday in June 2008, and they were married just a few months later.

While the Keller family was not known to Duggar family followers at the time, a lot has come out about the family over the years. The Kellers, like the Duggars, were heavily involved in the Iblp and opted to homeschool their children instead of sending them to traditional schools.

While the Keller family was not known to Duggar family followers at the time, a lot has come out about the family over the years. The Kellers, like the Duggars, were heavily involved in the Iblp and opted to homeschool their children instead of sending them to traditional schools.

Amy Duggar King hasn’t heard from her cousin Josh Duggar’s wife, Anna, amid his legal trials.
Josh was convicted of child pornography charges in 2021, before he was sentenced to 12 and a half years in jail in 2022. It was revealed earlier this year that he’d been handed almost two months of additional jail time on top of that after he was caught with a contraband cellphone, Global News reported.
While chatting to Et Canada’s Morgan Hoffman about the docuseries “Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets” — which explores the truth behind the scandal-plagued family — Amy shared of Anna: “Yeah, my heart goes out. My heart, honestly, is just like, okay, like you have to understand that this is your reality. And I think that’s going to take you a really long time to really understand that.
“And I’m not trying to force her to leave or to call me or anything.

In her book Becoming Free Indeed, Jinger Duggar discussed her experiences as a member of the Iblp [Institute in Basic Life Priciples]. This religious organization was devoutly followed by her parents, Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar. In turn, they expected their 19 children to follow these practices. However, in one passage, Jinger shared that women in this religious organization feel “worthless” unless they are married and have babies. Is she referring to her oldest sister Jana Duggar?

When reality television became increasingly popular in the 2000s, there was a large influx of shows across different networks, but TLC was arguably the hub for reality-style entertainment. Upon its release in 2008, TLC's "17 Kids and Counting" (which later became "18 Kids and Counting" and then "19 Kids and Counting") quickly grew in popularity among viewers, became the network's most popular show, and frequently made Nielsen's cable top 25 list.
The show famously centered around the life of the Duggars, a family of devout Christians consisting of parents Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, and their 19 children: Joshua, twins Jana and John-David, Jill, Jessa, Jinger, Joseph Garrett, Josiah Matthew, Joy-Anna, twins Jedediah and Jeremiah, Jason, James, Justin, Jackson, Johannah, Jennifer, Jordyn-Grace, and Josie Duggar. On the show, the family adhered to strict, fundamentalist Christian values, which included promoting traditional gender roles, advocating against birth control, enforcing modesty and "purity," and limiting access...

From, Karoline Xu, the scriptwriter's statement: From 1998 to 2000, I lived in a municipality next to Stockholm. I loved everything there: underground grocery stores, recess in the woods, dressing up for St. Lucia's Day. Later, my mom told me that I had a difficult time. The school where I kissed my first crush (a young Norwegian boy) was the same place where other white boys mocked my small “Oriental” eyes. In 2014, Sweden re-released the 1969 Pippi Longstocking television series and removed a few racial slurs, including the phrase “king of the Negroes” and a sequence where Pippi draws her eyes out into the slant eye gesture and sings a mock Chinese song. There was a large backlash; many Swedes believed this censorship corrupted a national treasure and reflected a submission to the “politically correct” atmosphere. The fusion of these events spurred what would eventually become “Pippi”

The Duggar family is best known now for Josh Duggar’s legal troubles. Years before federal marshals arrested the former reality TV star, the Duggar family was seen as a mostly wholesome Christian family. Their TLC shows, 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On, certainly tried to paint the family in a positive light. Despite the show’s best efforts, Duggar family critics spent years calling out the family’s strange behavior, noting there was something not quite right about the supersized clan. To be fair, there were plenty of odd moments during the run of both reality TV shows. We’ve collected three of the most peculiar Duggar family episodes.

Every so often, it looks like Michelle Duggar will shake loose of her ultra-conservative Christian beliefs and don a pair of pants. Over the last year, the famous mother of 19 has tricked Duggar family followers and photographers several times by wearing a black skirt over black leggings, giving the illusion that she’s tossed aside her “skirts-only” attire in favor of pants. Recently, there were murmurings that Michelle had ditched the skirts after she appeared with her daughters in a group picture. Despite how it looked, she wasn’t wearing pants, and it doesn’t look like she is planning a big rebellion. Michelle Duggar will likely continue to dress in skirts and dresses in public for three reasons.
Michelle Duggar won’t wear pants because of Jim Bob Duggar
The Duggar family’s strict adherence to an ultra-conservative Christian ministry called the Institute of Basic Life Principles is no big secret.
