Joy-Anna Duggar must have taken a page from Jinger Duggar’s book on social media strategy and engagement.

The Counting On star stepped back from vlogging her weeks and working on her YouTube channel but still shares on Instagram to keep her followers updated.

Her recent life update included several photos of her three kids playing outside and with each other. Another shot showed the sunset, highlighting the coming daylight increase.

However, it was the first photo that had us doing a double-take.

Joy and Austin Forsyth smiled for an in-bed selfie, raising eyebrows.

If it were used to draw attention to her page and get more eyes on it, that would have been the perfect strategy, with that photo being the first in a carousel.

But it seems he only made things worse. Keep reading to see his new punishment.

Counting On: Dillon King Tried To Fight Back

Dillon recently caught the attention of many after documents surfaced showing his response to his $236K punishment. The Counting On alum was asked to pay such an amount for missing his second payment to settle his unpaid rent. He explained, “It is admitted that the agreement was signed, and the first payment was made. However, the remaining allegations are denied – and payment has been offered,” asking the court to reconsider its ruling.

Counting On alum Amy Duggar King continues to make fans curious regarding her financial status with her husband, Dillon. The two opened Wellington’s restaurant in 2020.

Dillon has already paid some of his unpaid rent. But he’s upset about the new punishment he’s facing, which includes a $236K fee. Keep reading to see what happened.

Counting On fans wonder if Jim Bob Duggar is somehow forcing Anna Duggar to stick with Josh Duggar. Something made her stay married to him after his 12.5-year conviction for Csam. For the life of them, TLC fans can’t understand why she would stay, especially as she and Josh produced seven children.

TLC Alum Anna Duggar Could Support Herself

While a lot of Counting On fans argue that Anna’s incapable of supporting herself, that might not be true. Firstly, her brother, “Daniel Keller” condemned Josh for cheating on her and offered her and her kids a place to stay, per People. It is also believed that she might be working with breeding dogs. And of course, if she wrote a tell-all book, she could make millions.

Instead of fighting the comments about her expecting again, Jill highlighted her recent weight loss and thrift finds.

The former Counting On stars celebrated 10 years of marriage with a vacation away for a few days.

Things haven’t been easy for the couple since they wed in 2014, with several speed bumps along the way.

Derick was the first male Duggar in-law, and their milestones while filming 19 Kids and Counting and the subsequent spin-off, Counting On, garnered enormous ratings.

Jill was the first Duggar daughter to marry, which carried a lot along with it. Fans wanted to know their every move, and the cameras chronicled their lives for every milestone, including their wedding, the birth of their first two children, and other more personal moments.

Despite that, Jill and Derick remain happily married 10 years after they first said their vows.

Amy Duggar King is again speaking out about her cousin, Josh Duggar, and his wife, Anna Duggar.

Nothing new has changed regarding Josh, but as of now, he’s slated to be released from federal prison in October 2032. He still has to serve eight years, leaving plenty of time for him to mess up and have more time added.

Cousin Amy has been clear about where she stands with the situation, believing that he deserves to be where he is.

However, she still has a soft spot for Anna and the couple’s seven kids.

Last year, Amy and her mom, Deanna Duggar, ran into Anna at a funeral for someone they both knew. She had no idea her cousin-in-law would be there, and despite her attempt to speak to her, Anna wanted nothing to do with Amy.

After seeing Anna, Amy has some ideas about what she thinks is...

Counting On alums, Jill and Derick Dillard lost their baby, Isla recently, and TLC fans noticed that Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar attended the funeral. The bereaved couple’s been at odds with her parents for some time. Therefore, some people might have been surprised when they reunited over the tragic death of an infant.

Jill & Derick Dillard Were Pregnant With Their Fourth Child

When the news about baby Isla being stillborn arrived, TLC fans hadn’t known about the pregnancy. In the news that arrived on social media, it became apparent that the three other children, Israel, 9, Sam, 7, and going on two-year-old Freddy, looked forward to meeting their new sibling. So, that was a heartbreaker. Michelle Duggar helped Jill out after Freddy was born, but things still seemed strained between her and her dad.

Since Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar met Freddy, a lot of things changed for Jill and Derick Dillard.

Jill Duggar and her husband, Derick Dillard, are really going through it right now.

Earlier this week, the couple revealed that not only was Jill expecting their fourth child, but the pregnancy ended in tragedy.

Their statement about the loss of their daughter, Isla Marie, was shared along with a photo of the couple cradling what would have been their first daughter.

Details about the tragedy were scarce, with the Counting On couple only acknowledging Jill was due in August and their loss was found during an ultrasound.

They haven’t offered an update since, but Jill did repost a snap Amy Duggar King took of her with Jill’s three sons and her son, Daxton.

Jill can lean on Amy as they navigate this loss, which is good, considering she didn’t receive much support from her siblings (at least publicly).

Amy shared a photo with Jill’s sons as they spent time together.

Counting On alum Jill Duggar Dillard recently made headlines after announcing a sad loss. The 32-year-old mom revealed that she suffered a miscarriage, leaving her and Derick devastated.

TLC fans who enjoyed watching 19 Kids and Counting believe that Jessa Seewald uses the method with her babies. When people hear about blanket training, they tend to become angry because it seems cruel.

Amy Duggar King Was Raised Differently From Her Cousins

A lot of people slam Deanna, the brother of Jim Bob Duggar because they believe she knew all about Josh’s molestation of his sisters being covered up. Both she and her daughter Amy denied that they knew about it, right up until TLC fans heard about it. Hate is real, and like other members of the clan, they take some heat. But, they don’t get slammed about blanket training.

Amy Duggar King hasn’t been too active on social media in recent months.

She recently popped up on TikTok to check in with her followers, revealing that she is pretty busy and hopes to share what’s been happening behind the scenes.

The Counting On cousin often catches flak for using the Duggar name to elevate her social media platform. Still, to some, she appears genuine in her quest to share her experiences and shed light on the harmful practices of the Institute in Basic Principles (Iblp).

Amy took part in the Amazon docuseries Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets alongside her mom, Deanna Duggar. Her cousin, Jill Duggar, was a part of the docuseries with her husband, Derick Dillard.

Jill Duggar has been busy living life away from social media.

She spent the last several months promoting her book, Counting The Cost, and doing press and promotion nearly nonstop.

It has been two weeks since she posted anything before she returned to Instagram for a special birthday shoutout.

The Counting On star celebrated her “bestie,” even if it was a few days late.

Her post was a carousel of photos of her and Derick Dillard. The couple has been married for nearly 10 years and share three little boys.

Anna Duggar has kept quiet following the release of Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, but she can thank her father for the latest string of criticism surrounding the family. The 19 Kids and Counting alum joined the Duggar unit when she married disgraced son Josh Duggar. Josh molested multiple girls in the past, including his siblings, and is currently serving a 12-year prison sentence on child pornography charges. Despite his long history of criminal behavior, Anna refuses to consider divorcing him.

Anna’s father, Mike Keller, isn’t so great either, as a video recently surfaced of him spewing racist ideologies, referring to enslavers as “good people on the plantations.” 19 Kids and Counting’s Anna Duggar may not have caused a storm of social media backlash, but her father certainly has. Following a video of him somehow comparing Black Americans and slavery to the January 6 Capitol attack, many have laid...

Amy Duggar has spoken out about her family members' controversial lifestyle on the documentary Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, and believes Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are controlling their oldest daughter, Jana Duggar. The Amazon Prime docuseries revealed the hidden secrets of a cult the Duggar family follows called The Institute In Basic Life Principles (Iblp). Amy's husband Dillon King and cousin Jill Duggar were also featured in the documentary to share their thoughts on the cult's harmful teachings.

However, one secret that wasn't revealed in Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets is why 33-year-old Jana didn't end up courting or getting married. It does seem odd, especially since the eldest Duggar girls were all in courtships from a young age. In an interview with Us Weekly, Amy expressed concern for her cousin. "I truly hope to the good Lord above that she is happy and thriving and working through whatever she’s experienced,...

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have yet to catch a break following Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets as documents are released detailing a bizarre but tragic reasoning for their latest visit from the police. The Duggar family is back in the headlines following the Amazon docuseries that exposed the dark truth behind their ties to the Institute in Basic Life Principles, or Iblp. Featuring one of their daughters and other former Iblp members, the project revealed the harmfulness of the family’s ultra-conservative lifestyle that viewers witnessed on 19 Kids and Counting. Shortly after the series was released, it was reported that the police visited the Duggar compound for unknown reasons.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s police report has been leaked and reveals the visit was in response to a death in the family. TMZ obtained the documents, which stated Jim Bob’s 75-year-old uncle, Tommy Lester, had suddenly passed away in his home.

After Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets aired, cousin Amy Duggar King revealed a few opinions she had about her uncle, Jim Bob Duggar. Amy grew up alongside her cousins and was privy to much information about the family. However, she began to distance herself over the years after learning about some dark secrets.

For years, viewers got to know Amy as she was featured on both shows, 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On, as the eccentric niece of Jim Bob. Growing up, Amy was raised by her mother, Deanna, who was the sister of the Duggar patriarch. The Amazon docuseries, Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, shined a light on the dark side of The Institute in Basic Life Principles (Iblp), which the Duggars have been a part of. Needless to say, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar were not thrilled with the series.

Amy Duggar King doesn’t know what the future holds for the Duggar family.

Amy was chatting to Et Canada’s Morgan Hoffman about the “Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets” docuseries, when the host questioned what she hopes for the family, with everything that’s out there now.

The doc explores the truth behind the Duggars, stars of the TLC series “19 Kids and Counting”, who were part of the radical religious organization The Institute in Basic Life Principles (Iblp).

Amy — who shares son, Daxton Ryan, 3, with husband Dillon — told us of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and the scandal-plagued family: “I hope eventually they can be honest and they can be upfront… but I don’t know. I don’t know. The thing is with trust is obviously it can be broken in an instant. Right? But it takes a long time to heal. It takes a long time to really trust someone.

Amy Duggar King disagrees with how Jim Bob and Michelle received–and responded to–Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets. Amy was featured on both Duggar reality shows, 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On, as the niece of Jim Bob through her mother, Deanna. Following the docuseries that exposed the dark side of their cult-like faith, harmful parenting style, and familial scandals, Jim Bob and Michelle released a statement slamming the project. The Duggar parents, failing to see the purpose and severity of the issues raised, wrote that creators and participants had “ill intentions,” claiming the documentary to be “derogatory and sensationalized” storytelling for the sake of entertainment.

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.

Amy Duggar King is responding to Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s statement blasting the new docuseries about the scandal-plagued family.

“Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets” — which is a four-episode series exploring the truth behind The Duggars, stars of the TLC series “19 Kids and Counting”, who were part of the radical religious organization The Institute in Basic Life Principles (Iblp) — is streaming on Prime Video now.

Jim Bob and Michelle said of the doc on their website, “The recent ‘documentary’ that talks about our family is sad because in it we see the media and those with ill intentions hurting people we love. Like other families, ours too has experienced the joys and heartbreaks of life, just in a very public format. This ‘documentary’ paints so much and so many in a derogatory and sensationalized way because sadly that’s the direction of entertainment these days.

“We have...

Jinger Duggar Vuolo of 19 Kids and Counting fame spoke out about the documentary that has come out about her family and the Institute in Basic Life Principles (Iblp) church, and she hopes that people learn a lot from it. While Jinger does not appear in the documentary, she does seem to be supportive of it, as she has written her own book about her experiences. Some of the family members that star in the Amazon docuseries Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, are Jill Duggar Dillard and Amy Duggar King.

In an interview with People, Jinger said that even though she’s not in Shiny Happy People, “a lot of things will be exposed in the documentary about Iblp’s teachings.” Jinger is “eager to see what the documentary has [to share].” Despite not being in the documentary, she did say that writing Becoming Free Indeed, was the “hardest thing I’ve ever done,...

Jinger Duggar Vuolo declined interviews for Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets. And now, she’s sharing why. Sister Jill Duggar Dillard, brother-in-law Derick Dillard, cousin Amy Duggar King, and aunt Deanna Jordan all gave interviews for the docuseries, streaming now on Prime Video. The four-part series takes a deep dive into the Duggar family’s participation in Bill Gothard’s Institute for Basic Life Principles (Iblp) and its abusive practices. Through interviews with the family and former family friends Jim and Bobye Holt, Shiny Happy People also gives more insight into how the Duggar family responded to Josh Duggar‘s abuse of his sisters. (Josh is currently serving a 12+-year prison sentence for possession of child pornography.) Rather than participate in the doc, Jinger opted to share her feelings about her childhood in her memoir, Becoming Free Indeed, which was released in January 2023. “I was actually approached and asked to participate in the docuseries,...

Amy Duggar King, who frequently appeared with the Duggar unit on 19 Kids and Counting, revealed her cousin-in-law Anna Duggar has been leaving her on read. Not many members of the enormous family were willing to partake in the exposing docuseries Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, but Amy was one of them. She played a comforting and positive role in the family’s reality series. She wasn’t raised like her conservative clan of cousins, so her opposition then and now isn’t surprising. Her mother, Deanna Duggar, is the sister of the patriarch Jim Bob, and both of them joined Jill Duggar to share their thoughts on the family and their “secrets.”

Viewers were reminded in the docuseries that 19 Kids and Counting’s Amy Duggar is no fan of her disgraced cousin; but she doesn’t have the same feelings toward Josh Duggar's wife Anna. Amy recently...

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar released a statement criticizing the documentary Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets that has come out about their family. The Amazon prime documentary reveals a lot of interesting information about the Duggar family. While the Duggars haven't been on TV since 19 Kids and Counting ended in 2015 and the spin-off Counting On ended in 2020, they've still remained in the spotlight.

In reaction to the documentary coming out, a post was made by Jim Bob and Michelle on The Duggar Family official website, calling the whole thing “sad.” The statement says, “This ‘documentary’ paints so much and so many in a derogatory and sensationalized way because sadly that’s the direction of entertainment these days.” The blame is being pushed onto the media, despite the documentary claiming to shed light on some pretty intense issues. Jill Duggar is even a part of the whole thing, sharing her...

With the release of Amazon's Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, Amy Duggar King hasn't been afraid to attack her uncle, Jim Bob Duggar, noting he has been a hypocrite for years. Amy is the niece of Jim Bob, who grew up alongside her 19 cousins even though she lived a very different life. Now, the Arkansas native is speaking out.

Amy was shown several times on the Duggar's TV series 19 Kids and Counting. While the cameras rolled, she was frequently seen hanging out with her older cousins, Jana Duggar, Jessa Duggar, and Jinger Duggar Vuolo. In 2015, Amy married Dillon King and moved away from her famous family. Since Josh Duggar's conviction, Amy has spoken out against most of her family members who have forgiven Josh and even wrote a statement to the court. Naturally, her uncle was not thrilled by her behavior.

The stars of 19 Kids and Counting are preparing themselves for a bombshell documentary, Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, and fans will have access to watch it. Thanks to their multiple scandals, the Duggar family has been popular on TLC for some time. What started off as a wholesome family show quickly turned sour, all because of their extreme beliefs.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, along with their 19 children, haven't been seen together since 19 Kids and Counting went off the air in May 2015. The eldest daughters, Jana Duggar, Jessa Seewald, Jinger Vuolo, Joy-Anna Forsyth, and Jill Duggar tried their hand at a spin-off, Counting On, but after a few more issues, that show was canceled in 2020. Jim Bob and Michelle brought their children up within a strict religious code that's often referred to as a cult. The influence of their religion guided them to make certain decisions and...

Jill Duggar from 19 Kids and Counting is once again readying herself to speak out against the rest of the Duggar clan in an all-new documentary. Jill and her husband, Derick Dillard, have been one of the most outspoken couples as they often bash Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's way of life. Even though Jill has kept her distance, it seems she still has a lot to say.

People recently revealed that Jill will be sharing her opinions during a Prime Video documentary entitled Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, which will premiere on June 2.

Shiny Happy People Documentary...

Members of the Duggar family are returning to TV in Amazon Prime's newest show, Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets. The Duggars have not been on their own show since the end of Counting On aired in 2020. Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets promises to delve into the Duggar family and how the family members were brought up, the influence of their religious background, and behind-the-scenes facts about how the previous shows were filmed.

The Duggars became famous due to their large family and strict religious beliefs. They followed the guidelines set by Bill Gothard and his Institute in Basic Life Principles (Iblp) and were featured in the show, 19 Kids & Counting, because of their unusual lifestyle. The show was canceled following Josh Duggar's sexual abuse scandal, and their other spin-off, Counting On, was canceled after Josh's arrest and conviction on possession of illicit images of children.
