Perhaps as a result of the speed with which certain parts of the country are re-opening, a lot of people seem to have wound up with the impression that the coronavirus has been canceled.
Or at least that pandemic winding its way toward its end, and…
The ongoing feud between Derick Dillard and Jim Bob Duggar is unlike anything we’ve seen from the Counting On clan previously, and not only because JB usually discourages all displays of strong emotion.
We’re sure he justifies it with some sermon a…
If you’re a Duggar fan, then by now, you’re almost certainly aware of the civil war threatening to tear the family in two.
The feud between Derick Dillard and Jim Bob Duggar has been raging for months, and it shows no signs of being settled anytime…
Regardless of whether or not you live in a city in which protests are taking place, by now, you’re certainly familiar with the sights and sounds that have characterized the past week in America:
The shocking footage of the police murder of George F…
Large sections of the Old Testament are devoted to genealogies – lengthy lists of couplings and the biblically-significant offspring that they begat.
Given the Duggars’ love for the Good Book, we’re sure someone in the family has compiled a similar compendium of the courtships and marriages that led to the creation of Jim Bob and Michelle’s many granchildren.
It might seem like it would take a monastic scholar to keep track of the rapid expansion of the Counting On clan, but we tried. We tried.
THG has managed to create a complete list of the #LittleDuggars without locking ourselves in an abbey with a quill and parchment.
But that’s not to say it was a simple task.
After all, Jim Bob and Michelle have a lot of kids, and those kids are very dedicated to the task of populating Northwest Arkansas with Duggars.
So sit back, grab a Duggar-friendly snack (might we suggest a jar of pickles?) and explore the family tree of TV’s most beloved Baptist brood.
Counting On is basically the reality TV equivalent of Game of Thrones:
On each show, there are roughly four million characters, and it’s often difficult to keep track of who’s doing what … or whom.
The Duggars take a slightly more conservative view on coupling than the residents of Westeros, but all the same, courtships, weddings, pregnancies, and births are a big part of what keeps their core audience tuning in.
So here’s a rundown of what some of Jim Bob and Michelle’s kids are up to these days.
Don’t worry – unlike Thrones, the Duggars won’t be leaving your TV screen anytime soon. Not as long as they continue to make sure Earth’s population growth continues unabated.
UPDATE: The Duggar drama never ends! We’ll continue adding the latest developments to the end of this gallery!
At this point, the feud between Jim Bob Duggar and Derick Dillard has been going on for so long that it’s almost impossible to imagine the two men ever reaching a peaceful resolution.
And the conflict may have had permanently damaging effects on so…
Jill Duggar appears to have made a pretty huge statement on her Instagram Stories page.
And it has to do with her life, her family and whether the two will ever intertwine again.
Amid incessant chatter over whether or not Jill has cut ties wi…
For several months now, the feud between Derick Dillard and Jim Bob Duggar has been steadily intensifying.
Not surprisingly, Jill Duggar has chosen to side her husband in his escalating war against her father.
Duggar women are taught from a young age to be loyal to their husbands in all matters, and if Derick’s allegations of Jim Bob’s abusive tendencies are accurate, the decision of which man she should support in this conflict was probably a very easy one for Jill.
But even so, her actions have come with consequences that probably led her to wish her husband had never gone to war with the boss of the family.
For example, new evidence indicates that Jill’s siblings have completely cut ties with her and have decided to remain loyal to their parents.
Take a look:

Like just about every other family in the country, the Duggars celebrated a different sort of Mother’s Day this year, as the coronavirus pandemic keeps us locked in our homes or standing six feet apart.

Jill Duggar reportedly has one wish for Mother’s Day.
It should be a simple one. It should be one that isn’t difficult to be granted.

According to a very reliable source, Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard may have found the ultimate way to get back at the former’s father.
That reliable source is Dillard himself.
And that ultimate act of revenge? It’s something we never could have seen coming.
Seriously, prepare to be shocked, Duggar Nation followers.
Why? Because Dillard was a guest this week on the “First Class Fatherhood” podcast.
When the host asked if he and his semi-famous wife were planning on “going for [a] girl” – after having two sons, Samuel and Israel – or if they’re happy as a family of four, Dillard did not respond as we expected.
He said the couple is “not definite” one way or another.
Not about whether he wants a girl. That’d be great. But he’s hinting that they may be done having children. Forever.
“We’ll see,” he said. “We’re just kind of enjoying life.”
Typically, of course, such a statement would raise nary an eyebrow around the Internet.
Many couple have just two kids and live happily ever after in this arrangement, with no consideration given to another child and no questions about it from friends or strangers.
But not many couple are part of a family such as the Duggars, whose patriarch basically believes that women have only been placed on this planet in order to procreate.
And who, of course, has 19 kids of his own.
As for why the timing of Dillard’s statement is also of note?
He’s been feuding with Jim Bob Duggar for several months, saying on multiple occasions that his father-in-law controls the entire family and has straight up stolen money from his sons and daughters.
Derick, of course, is married to one of these daughters.
If Jill – who has allegedly been cut off by her awful dad – and Derick wanted to have the final word in this ongoing argument with Jim Bob, this is the most potent trump card they could use, isn’t it?
Sorry, pops. No more grandkids from us! Live with that, you misogynic cult leader!
As you can see below, Jill has also rocked leggings on occasion, clearly taking a passive aggressive shot at her father by doing so.
But, again, nothing could compete with closing up her baby shop for good… if Jill is really trying to hurt her parents.
To be fair, Derick and Jill hinted in the past that two kids were plenty.
In October 2019, for example, the mom shared an exhausted rant on Instagram, seemingly revealing she was overwhelmed running after her young sons. She told fans:
“Y’all … This is me frustrated.”
The 28-year-old continued:
“[My son] is screaming at me because he wants a game. I just told them to go lay down or go outside until mommy can cool down and handle this situation.”
“This is life with just two kids.”
Dillard has also made it clear that, as opposed to basically every other Duggar, he doesn’t just go around and pound his wife raw.
“We never said we don’t believe in birth control,” he told a fan who asked in August 2019, adding:
“My parents waited 11 years to start having kids.”
“There’s nothing wrong with that,” Dillard, 31, made clear.
“Each Christian family should follow God’s leading for their own family, regarding when and how many kids to have.”
Sounds logical to us.
But likely sounds sacrilegious to Jim Bob.
At this point in the coronavirus pandemic, you’ve probably been forced to venture out and procure provisions at least once.
And even though you knew what to expect — nervous people in face masks keeping a safe six-foot distance from one another –…
