  • Jana Duggar Edited Out of ’19 Kids and Counting?’

    Jana Duggar was recently edited out of an entire episode of 19 Kids and Counting. Is TLC editing the eldest of the Duggar daughters out of the entire show?

    OK! points out that Jana Duggar was conspicuously absent from the November 11th episode of 19 Kids and Counting. The episode followed eldest son Josh Duggar, his wife Anna, and their children on an RV trip. And even though both Josh and Anna made mention of how proud they were to take this trip without the help of any family members, Jana Duggar accompanied them on this past summer’s vacation.

    It seems the producers wanted to ‘showcase the way Josh and Anna interact with their kids.’ Fans fear that this might indicate a slow phasing out of Jana from the entire show.

    A source told OK! that Jana Duggar became an ‘invisible babysitter’ while on the road trip. She has previously been referred to as the ‘Cinderella Duggar‘ because of all the things she does behind the scenes for the family and their show. Jana reportedly worked tirelessly, along with sisters Jill Duggar Dillard and Jessa Duggar Seewald, to plan both weddings–the first in June and the second in November.

    24-year-old Jana Duggar is a midwife.

    “I’ve been spending a lot of time working under a local midwife,” she said during a recent interview. “I am really enjoying learning about natural birth. I feel so blessed to be able to learn and grow in this area, and I plan on using the skills that I’ve developed through these experiences to help my family and friends now and in the future.”

    Hopefully Jana Duggar isn’t being edited out of 19 Kids and Counting for good. She’s pretty, smart, and a hard worker, too. It would be sad to learn that TLC wants her gone because there’s no wedding on her horizon.

    A current rumor floating about regarding Jana, however, involves Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and Tim Tebow’s mom. They are reportedly working on setting up Jana with Tim. While there is no confirmation on this, they certainly would make an adorable couple–don’t you think? Would that be enough to keep Jana Duggar in the 19 Kids and Counting spotlight?

  • Jana Duggar: Is She Dating Tim Tebow?

    Is Jana Duggar of 19 Kids and Counting dating former NFL player Tim Tebow? Her parents have reportedly been spotted in the company of Tim’s mom, Pam Tebow, recently, adding fuel to the rumor’s flame.

    Fans of the TLC show have wondered of late why Jana Duggar, who is 24–and old for marrying age by Duggar standards–has put off courting (Duggar offspring don’t date–they court) for so long.

    Pam Tebow is a big pro-life advocate, just like Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar. She has been spotted at events where Jim Bob and Michelle were present, and has even visited the 19 Kids and Counting family’s home.

    So does this mean the two families are working on setting up Jana Duggar and Tim Tebow? Jana’s two younger sisters, Jill and Jessa Duggar, recently tied the knot. In fact Jill Duggar Dillard is now expecting the couple’s first baby. This leaves Jana Duggar miles behind her younger sisters. Are Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar doing some matchmaking on her behalf?

    RadarOnline reports that Jim Bob Duggar has his sights set on Tim Tebow as Jana’s future husband.

    “Jim Bob is no dummy,” a source said. “Tim would be a perfect addition to the family and a feather in his cap. Can you imagine the press attention a Tim-Jana wedding would get?”

    This doesn’t necessarily ring true, however, with avid fans of 19 Kids and Counting, however. Jim Bob Duggar recently told the Christian Post, “I do not choose who my children marry.’

    Regardless of whether these rumors are true or not, one point is beyond clear. Jana Duggar and Tim Tebow would make an incredibly good looking couple.

    Do you think there’s any truth to rumors about some matchmaking in the works? Are Tim Tebow and Jana Duggar already courting?

  • Jinger Duggar: Will She Escape the Family Before Marriage?

    Although their two sisters, Jill and Jessa, have been trending in the news lately due to their recent marriages and baby announcements, Jinger and Jana Duggar don’t seem to be in any rush to move on to the next stage.

    Jinger, one of the most outspoken members of the Duggar family, recently served as maid-of-honor at Jessa’s November wedding.

    “I definitely cried once or twice, a couple of different evenings thinking about Jessa leaving,” she said. “It is a different season of life. Those special memories in the girls’ room, us up chatting late at night, is one thing I think about and start tearing up.”

    Jim Bob, father of the Duggar clan, said that Jinger hasn’t picked a future spouse yet because, “so far, she has not been interested in the guys.”

    But because Jinger, 20, is the most outspoken, fans of 19 Kids & Counting have started a movement to get her away from the Independent Baptist family before she begins stepping toward courtship and marriage.

    Freejinger.com says that they are “a group of critics” who have “joined together online in the hopes of convincing spitfire daughter Jinger to leave too — without a wedding ring on her finger!”

    “Jinger is one of the middle Duggar daughters, and the only one who shows a spark of life. If anyone is going to break out of the Duggar Borg, our money is on Jinger,” reads the site’s FAQ page. “One theory is that she resents her name being misspelled just so her family could keep their J streak going.”

    But Jinger isn’t the only one who isn’t moving toward matrimony.

    Online rumors have indicated that Jana Duggar, 24, is too busy taking care of her younger siblings to be courted. She’s even been dubbed “Cinderella Duggar” by Radar Online. However, Jim Bob insists that there have been a lot of guys who have been interested in her.

    “I have gone to hear about each one,” he said, “and so far she hasn’t felt that is the way the Lord is leading.”

    “We’ve always gotten different ones asking, ‘When is it going to be your turn? When is it your time?’” Jenna said. “I just think for me I am just waiting and we’ll see. When God brings that one along it will be his time.”

    However, none of this information stops the online community from speculating about the eldest sister.

    Or about the Jinger, for that matter.

    But Jana’s twin brother, John David, seems eager to marry and recently joked that he is taking applications for a future spouse.

    “It was a joke,” he says. “But I hear that we started receiving applications like crazy. I don’t know how many have come in and I haven’t looked at any, but I hear there are a lot.”

    Joseph Duggar, 19, also has his thoughts on courtship and marriage.

    “I definitely want to do the same route in courting and getting to know someone in the way my siblings have,” he said. “Doing it that way, I believe that is the way that God intended it. I don’t think God wants us to play around and go out with everyone, but to know for sure that is the one He has for you.

    “Sometimes, that takes time.”

    Who do you think will marry next? Are you, along with many others, rooting for Jinger to escape before she is spoken for?

  • Jim Bob Duggar Doesn’t Choose Children’s Spouses

    Jim Bob Duggar, the patriarch of the 19 Kids and Counting family, said during a recent interview with People magazine that he doesn’t choose the people his children marry. Speculation of that notion likely arose because of the tight ship he and wife Michelle Duggar run with regard to their daughters and dating. In fact, Duggar girls (and boys) don’t date. Instead they court. That courtship is designed to learn whether or not that person is the one God has planned to be the chosen spouse.

    Jessa Duggar just tied the knot with Ben Seewald last weekend. Now some are wondering which of the Duggar children might be the next to get married.

    “I do not choose who my children marry,” Jim Bob, who is 50, said in the exclusive interview. “Over the years, I have suggested guys to my daughters or we have had a lot of guys that approach us and are interested in this girl or that girl, but each of our girls have chosen their spouse on their own.”

    So who do you think might be the next of the 19 Kids and Counting offspring to get married? Twins John David and Jana Duggar are both still single.

    “I am such an expert in love and marriage,” John David joked. “Maybe people will steal my advice since I know so much.”

    “Jana is one of the prettiest girls in the world and one of the sweetest girls,” Jim Bob Duggar says of his oldest daughter. “There have been a lot of guys who have been interested in her, I have gone to hear about each one, and so far she hasn’t felt that is the way the Lord is leading.”

    Jinger Duggar was maid of honor at Jessa Duggar’s wedding last weekend. Jim Bob Duggar weighs in on her courtship status.

    “Jinger is just a dynamic girl that a lot of guys have been interested in,” Jim Bob says. “But so far, she has not been interested in the guys.”

    Aside from the twins and Jinger Duggar, the only other of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s children who is old enough to marry is 19-year-old Joseph Duggar. And even though Jim Bob Duggar didn’t offer his two cents worth regarding Joseph, the young man has certainly learned a thing or two by watching his older siblings.

    “I definitely want to do the same route in courting and getting to know someone in the way my siblings have,” he says. “Doing it that way, I believe that is the way that God intended it. I don’t think God wants us to play around and go out with everyone, but to know for sure that is the one He has for you.”

    It’s good to hear that Jim Bob Duggar doesn’t choose his children’s spouses. That’s a rather outdated form of matchmaking that is likely destined to fail. Instead he and wife Michelle have fashioned some courtship rules that are designed to make them find the right person–with maybe just a little help from their dad.
