Josiah Duggar and his wife, Lauren Swanson, have opted for a quiet life following Josh Duggar’s arrest and the cancelation of the Duggar family reality TV series Counting On. While the couple has no current social media presence, Duggar family followers remain interested in the goings-on in their lives. Josiah and Lauren have mostly flown under the radar, but a recent wedding guest list seemingly confirms the existence of their third child and that child’s name.
The name of Josiah and Lauren Duggar’s third child has been revealed
While Josiah and Lauren have completely shied away from public life since the cancelation of Counting On, occasional news about the duo continues to trickle out. In December 2022, their second child’s name was leaked after James Duggar uploaded a Christmas video to his YouTube channel. The video pans across the Duggar family living space to show viewers the family’s gift organization system.

Many TLC fans wondered over the years if the Duggar family arranged the marriages for the kids, but it seems a bit hard to pin down for some of them. While most of the Counting On stars were married after courting, it seems that the bulk of them at least had some personal choice. But, it’s not as if the parents had nothing to do with the final decision.
Derick And Jill Duggar Seemed To Have Elements Of Being Arranged
Derick Dillard claimed that he had to fill in over 400 questions in his application to marry Jill. Most people agree that probably, their marriage was arranged. Not by Derick’s dad, because he had passed away. Apparently, it’s common for men to approach Jim Bob, and Derick felt interested in Jill.

The Duggar family spent more than a decade on television. Since TLC canceled Counting On following Josh Duggar’s arrest on child pornography charges, the family’s numerous members have taken different routes with their public personas. Some members of the family, like Jessa Seewald, Jill Dillard, and Jinger Vuolo, have leaned into their celebrity and crafted independent content. Other Duggar offspring have opted to step back from the limelight completely.
Josiah Duggar and his wife, Lauren Swanson, have lived completely private lives since Josh’s arrest. Still, they are present at Duggar family events. A recent family photo, shared by James Duggar on Instagram, proves that Josiah and Lauren have welcomed two children since shutting down their social media and retreating from public life.

Jinger Vuolo was raised on TV, and it looked like she would be doing the same with her kids. Then, Josh Duggar was arrested for downloading and possessing child pornography. Following her oldest brother’s arrest, Jinger and Jeremy Vuolo changed how they approached social media. Pictures of their two children completely disappeared from their feeds. In a recent social media Q&a, Jinger Vuolo revealed why she and Jeremy made the decision they did.

Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary in June. The reclusive Duggar couple is believed to have three children and recently built a new home. Before all of that, Josiah had his sights set on a different woman. In 2015, Josiah Duggar entered into a courtship with a woman named Marjorie Jackson. It is the only public Duggar courtship that failed. Eight years after the couple called things off, it feels like the right time to revisit where their lives have taken them.
Josiah Duggar and Marjorie Jackson announced their courtship shortly before Josh Duggar’s original scandal broke
Back in 2015, everything was going fine for the Duggar family. Then, In Touch Weekly published police records that indicated that Josh Duggar had molested several of his sisters when he was still a teen. Not long after, Josh was outed as a serial cheated following the Ashley Madison data breach.

The Duggar family might be reeling from Jill Dillard’s scathing memoir, Counting the Cost, but that isn’t going to stop them from having some family fun. The entire Duggar clan traveled to Destin, Florida, together to soak up the sun. It was far from the first family outing this year. It wasn’t the first vacation with some notable absences, either.
The Duggar family took a beach trip together
Joy-Anna Forsyth was one of more than a dozen Duggars who left Arkansas to visit Destin, Florida, for a beach reprieve. In her most recent YouTube upload, Joy-Anna documented the vacation, and several of her siblings were happy to show up on screen. Along with Joy, her husband Austin, and their three children, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar were spotted in Florida. All of their minor children appeared to be in attendance, as well.

Duggar family critics lambasted Jessa Seewald in February for monetizing her miscarriage. The fallout from her two-part YouTube video sponsored by a food delivery service was immense. It didn’t stop Jessa from posting to Instagram and YouTube, though. In recent months, she has switched up her posting style, though. Critics don’t think it is in response to the criticism, though. Some Duggar family followers strongly suspect Jessa Seewald is pregnant but attempting to keep it quiet until she’s 100% ready to announce. Her current social media activity seems similar to her activity during past pregnancies.

The Duggar family may no longer have a reality TV show, but Duggar family followers still have plenty of ways to keep up with most of the family. Several Duggar kids weren’t ready to give up the spotlight, and upon the cancelation of the family’s TLC show, Counting On, have transitioned over to YouTube. While most of their videos are fairly mundane, you can spot something interesting in most videos if you look carefully enough. For example, in Jinger and Jeremy Vuolo’s most recent upload seemingly confirms Lauren Duggar’s pregnancy. Lauren married Josiah Duggar in 2018. Josiah and Lauren have opted for a very quiet life in recent months, so Lauren’s baby bump is certainly news.

The Duggar family spent over a decade sharing their family “rules’ on 19 Kids and Counting On. The Duggar family adheres to a series of rules, including the rule that women should not work outside the home. Based on the Institute of Basic Life Principles teachings, they also think men should work for themselves instead of corporations. Many of the Duggars have followed the family tradition as they started their own families. It looks like one couple is sidestepping the career guidelines, though. Based on a recent video, it looks like Abbie Duggar, John David Duggar’s wife, has a job. A woman who looks just like Abbie was spotted in Joy-Anna Forsyth’s birth video.

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.

The Duggar kids grew up on TV. Even now, without a television show, several members of the supersized family are turning the cameras on themselves to make an income. Jill Dillard, Jessa Seewald, Jinger Vuolo, Joy-Anna Forsyth, Jedidiah Duggar, and James Duggar, among others, have all opted to start YouTube channels and maintain a strong presence on social media. What they are and are not willing to post, however, varies. In a recent video, Joy-Anna Forsyth seems to purposefully disrespect Jinger and Jeremy Vuolo’s rules for their children.

Ugh. Jinger Duggar is getting mom-shamed, so much so that she disabled the comments on one of her photos of Felicity so that followers and nay-sayers couldn't continue to leave critical messages. The Counting On star gave birth to her baby girl — whom she shares with her (hunky Af) hubby, Jeremy Vuolo — but her parenting skills have been called into question pretty much constantly since then. And after months of mommy-shaming, she's having trouble dealing with all the hate. The most recent controversy came out when the 24-year-old mom showed off photos of her daughter in a head wrap, which some called cultural appropriation. "Jinger has busybodies commenting on everything she does so it’s not a huge shock that she’s getting grief over Felicity’s head wrap but it still upsets her," a Duggar family insider revealed to Hollywood Life. "She feels like she's constantly getting mom shamed since she had Felicity.

Move Over, Jinger Duggar! Fans Think They Know Why Jill Is Now The Rule Breaker In Her Famous Family
Sorry, Jinger Duggar, you've been dethroned! The former "rebel" of her famous family is no longer as big of a rule breaker as her big sis, Jill. Although Jinge is notorious for wearing pants — and was even once rumored to be on birth control — the 27-year-old has been rocking a nose piercing, getting a tattoo, and gasp! even showing off her shoulders. Now, fans seem to think they know why. According to the anti-Duggar Facebook page Life Is Not All Pickles and Hairspray, the former reality star is rebelling once more. Watch the video above to see their evidence and don’t forget to subscribe to our YouTube Channel. People quickly began commenting their thoughts on the theory, with many speculating it has to do with her controversial husband, Derick Dillard.

What happened to Amy Duggar? Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's niece had a pretty prominent role on the Duggar family's former TLC series 19 Kids and Counting as "Cousin Amy," but ever since the show was canceled after Josh's back to back scandals in 2015, she's been slowly fading more and more off the radar. The last time fans heard of her, she was reportedly being "silenced" by her famous reality TV fam and wasn't allowed to talk about them or post about them on social media — which was also around the time when she set her Instagram to private. But last week, the Duggar fam shared a warm birthday tribute to Amy, which has all of us wondering what was up with their feud in the first place?

No one's first kiss ever goes perfectly, but for Josiah Duggar and his new bride Lauren Swanson, it was their second kiss that was the trouble. Well, it was more of an "almost" kiss than anything, actually, because when Josiah went to lay one on his wife after their first, official marital swoop, she totally rebuffed him — and in front of everyone. Considering the Duggar family's strict courting rules, the couple obviously didn't really get the chance to practice how things would go at the altar. Still, we doubt that either of them expected that it would turn out like that. On their wedding episode of Counting On, the TLC stars walked down the aisle so that they could tie the knot and finally, finally kiss. As they said during their interviews, waiting those four months was a long time! But despite all that practice Josiah got kissing his hand,...

The reality star kept it real while chatting with his brother on last night's Counting On finale. “As far as the first kiss goes, I mean, I’m sure you can figure it out,” Joseph said. “It’s not really that complicated.” Josiah appeared to be a little nervous about how the moment would go down, explaining, “I asked her just to stay still…and then kind of go with it." Joseph, 23, suggested he lead the way, but since this would be a brand new experience for Josiah, he decided to take matters into his own hands — quite literally. “I was thinking, you know what? I wonder what it feels like,” Josiah said. “So I practiced on my hand." View...

It looks like their first spontaneous married adventure must've gone well, because Josiah Duggar and his new wife Lauren Swanson are back on Instagram and packing on the Pda. The young couple, who tied the knot in June, have certainly been getting more comfortable with each other since their wedding. Though they did break a few courtship rules on the way to the alter, they still managed to save their first kiss for marriage, and since then they've continued to practice. And now they're joining in on the Duggar practice of sharing their Pda online. The couple has posted kissing pics before. Their first Instagram as a married couple showed their silhouettes as they shared a ~steamy~ makeout session a month after their big day. The month after that, Lauren 'grammed a romantic wedding photo of Si laying a big smooch on her, captioning it with a sweet message for her new husband's birthday.

It's hardly news that the Duggar kids don't go to school in the traditional sense. Instead, they stay home and are homeschooled by mom Michelle Duggar — or, more recently, oldest sis Jana Duggar and her Bff Laura DeMasie. But things just may be changing now that Derick Dillard is off at law school and bringing his wife Jill Duggar along to his classes for date nights. On this week's episode of Dishin' on the Duggars, we're talking about the state of everyone's education — and, of course, everything else that's been going on this week. Jim Bob Duggar showering his wife in compliments? We're on it. Gideon Forsyth being an adorable baby? We wouldn't miss it. Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson heading out on a married adventure? You know we've got something to say about the family's Rv trips. Listen in to the podcast in full above, and check out the highlights below.

Uhhh, who's that kid? That was the question on a ton of Duggar family fans' minds when they looked at Derick Dillard's Instagram picture of three little boys. Two of them were pretty instantly recognizable as his sons Israel and Samuel, but the third boy, well, not so much. The youngest of the three, an infant, was basically a mystery. "Who is the baby?" asked one fan, with another writing, "Who's baby is this? I am confused." Fans also had guesses, though they weren't necessarily right guesses. "Israel, Samuel, and Gideon?" wrote one commenter. Finally another got it right on the money: "Sorry that's a Dillard kid....thought it was Gideon." Luckily, Derick's caption also helped clear things up. "The Dillard cousins all together for the first time!" he wrote.

Though the Duggars live their lives in front of the camera, they can still be pretty private, and we don't always see much of their friends. Recently, though, Jill Duggar took to social media to share an inspiring message with and for her friend Molly Kuhl who's been battling cancer. In honor of her friend, Jill posted a picture of herself in a special tank top with the bible quote, "Do it again, Lord." She had even more to say herself. "Wearing my #doitagainLordshirt today for my sweet friend @mollykuhl1219 on what our friends have named #mollymonday," the mom of two wrote on Monday, September 17th. "We continue to uplift and pray for Molly (& fam!) as she goes through chemo, then stem cell treatments later this week! Love you Molly!

Jim Bob is one lucky man! The Counting On star recently took to Instagram to give a shout out to his wife, Michelle, just days after her birthday. Although his message was seriously adorable, it was her slim figure that really got people talking. Watch the video above to see the pic — and to find out what people had to say! Back in 2014, the 52-year-old opened up about body image and said she's proud of her stretch marks and flaws. "We're always going to find somebody skinnier than we are, somebody bigger than we are," she said in an interview with Today. "Every girl struggles with, 'Oh, I wish I looked like that or I wish my hair was like that.' We go back to the point of who you are and how God made you — you're not your sister. It's all about being who God wants You to be.

Do we hear wedding bells?! John David Duggar and Abbie Grace Burnett got engaged in July, but they already seemingly have a wedding date. The Counting On stars are allegedly registered at Bed Bath & Beyond, and now it looks like their big day is set for Nov. 3, 2018. That's not too far away! According to the anti-Duggar Facebook page, Duggar Family News: Life Is Not All Pickles and Hairspray, John and Abbie will be "married the first weekend of November" and "not in Arkansas." Perhaps they'll tie the knot in Abbie's hometown in Oklahoma? In a separate post, the admin for the group wrote, "Another source sent me the actual wedding invitation. The venue of the wedding and reception are hidden for privacy reasons." Another source sent me the actual wedding invitation.

Hold up. Are we seeing things? The Duggars' rebel cousin Amy King was once reportedly "not allowed" to talk to her famous family, but now it seems as though they've reconnected. In a new Counting On clip, released Sept. 17, the 31-year-old showed up to the girls' singing lesson for their new album, and Tbh, we're still confused. Watch the video below for more! Back in June, a source told Radar Online that Amy had been "silenced" by her family. "Amy is not allowed to talk about the Duggars anymore," they said. In fact, she wasn't even allowed to post photos with them. "Amy went through her Instagram and had to delete all the pictures she had with her cousins," the source added. Amy has long been known as the rebel in her family — yes, even more so than Jinger! — due to her outspoken views on religion and homosexuality. Recently, the...

And they're off! Not long after their wedding and honeymoon, Josiah Duggar and his new bride Lauren Swanson are embarking on a new adventure. No, they're not pregnant — or at least they haven't announced anything just yet, though knowing the Duggars that news may be on the way within the next few months. Instead, they're following in their family tradition of taking an Rv trip together. How fun! The couple packed up everything they needed into an Rv trailer hitched to the back of their black truck, and they hit the road over the weekend. "Life should never be too busy to have fun..." the couple wrote on Instagram — though if we had to guess who did the actual posting, our money would be on Lauren. Ever since they decided to share Si's Instagram account, it seems like she's been the one sharing pics and writing captions. "#firstmarriedrvtrip #bespontaneous #marriedtomybestfriend,...

Another day, another Wtf comment from Derick Dillard. The former Counting On star — who was fired from the hit TLC show last year — took to his favorite platform to defend the decision for Jill Duggar to homeschool their sons. "Many homeschoolers not only have the same opportunities but exceed their peers," he wrote. Unfortunately, not everyone agreed with him. "I have the blessing of having a wife who is willing to school them at home," he wrote on Sept. 14. "Many homeschoolers not only have the same opportunities, but exceed their peers."

Sigh. Jill Duggar took to her blog over the weekend to share yet another visibly unappealing recipe, this time, for her "Easy Baked Italian Chicken 'N Sides." The five-ingredient meal contains chicken, potatoes, canned or frozen green beans, dry Italian dressing mix, and a s--t ton of butter. Uh, gross. My mother-in-law makes this meal frequently, especially when delivering a meal to a friend.

"This past week, I took meals to two friends of ours, so this recipe came in super handy! It's so simple and tastes delicious!" Really, Jill?

Guess it's not as easy as it looks! Though Joy-Anna Duggar grew up in a home with 18 other kids and watched mom Michelle Duggar go through it all, it turns out she isn't actually an expert yet. In a new clip from Counting On, she's talking about her experience with motherhood as she learns how to raise her son Gideon with husband Austin Forsyth. Though she has plenty of experience taking care of little ones, namely her own brothers and sisters, it turns out that having a baby of your own is a quite a bit different. "Being a mom is in a lot of ways easier than I thought and in a lot of ways harder than I thought," she shares with the camera in the clip below. "I knew that my mom had gone through a lot with all of us kids, but like I didn't think it...

Is she preparing for motherhood? Lauren Swanson is the subject of pregnancy rumors once again, all thanks to the detective skills of some fans. The speculation began after a few pointed out the Counting On star's recent Pinterest board pins which happen to include baby shower ideas and maternity/newborn photography. "Lauren has been pinning baby stuff on her Pinterest, so she could be pregnant right now," one person commented on the Reddit thread about which Duggar is most likely to get pregnant next. Fans are already anticipating some exciting news in the near future because Josiah Duggar and Lauren tied the knot after only five months of courtship, on June 30. "We'll probably get a SiRen pregnancy announcement next month," another chimed in. View this post on Instagram Can’t believe it’s almost been 2 months since I married my best friend!!!

You wanna clarify what the heck you're talking about, Derick Dillard?! The former Counting On star — who was fired for his transphobic comments on Jazz Jennings last year — took to Twitter to reveal he's a "naturalized uncle," and fans are like... come again? On Sept. 8, "SamSam" and Izzy's dad wrote, "This week I had my first midterm exam in law school and became a naturalized uncle! It's been a good week!" This week I had my first midterm exam in law school and became a naturalized uncle! It’s been a good week!— Derick Dillard (@derickmdillard) September 8, 2018 People quickly began commenting on the post, with one person writing, "Wtf is a naturalized uncle?" Valid q, Tbh. In response, the disgraced reality star wrote, "I'm related by blood," to which another replied, "That definitely isn't what naturalized means though?" Based on its definitions, according to Merriam-Webster, Derick just straight-up invented a new meaning.

Nothing says Monday quite like a sh—ty Jill Duggar recipe! The former Counting On star — whose husband was given the boot for his transphobic remarks on Jazz Jennings — took to her blog last week to post yet another sodium-filled concoction: White Chicken Chili.

We're seeing double! Josiah Duggar's wife, Lauren Swanson, has another doppelgänger — in addition to Carly Rae Jepsen! Eagle-eyed fans of the Counting On star noticed that she looks a heck of a lot like another fellow reality star, and Tbh, we totally see it. Let's do a side-by-side comparison, shall we? Watch the video above to find out who the mystery woman is! And redditors seem to agree. One person wrote of their resemblance, "Oh wow she does," while a second added, "I just finished that season of Great British Bake Off and thought the same thing." A third chimed in, "Yes! Been thinkin' this all week." Of course, this isn't the first time the newlywed has been compared to someone. Okay, so maybe we're the ones who discovered Lauren's first lookalike — aka platinum recording artist Carly Rae Jepson — but we still stand by our observation. Not only are their eyebrows,...

Well, this is... weird. Jeremy Vuolo celebrated his 31st birthday yesterday, and in honor of his special day, Jinger Duggar gave him an, uh, interesting present. The Counting On star apparently hit up her brother Josiah's ex-girlfriend, Marjorie Jackson, who then handwrote calligraphy for him. Wtf? Check out the video above to see the gift Jinger gave him. Si tied the knot to Lauren Swanson in June, but prior to their courtship, he was courting Marjorie.. Aka, they were pretty darn serious. However, in August 2015 the two called off their courtship with a joint statement released by both families. "Both Josiah and Marjorie have enjoyed getting to know each other and to build their friendship over the past months," the Facebook post read. "We are so grateful that they each are seeking the Lord's will for their future. A few weeks ago Marjorie and Josiah agreed to end their courtship,...
