Counting On alums Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have stepped away from the limelight since the CSAM arrest of their son, Josh, in 2021. Many of their kids remain in touch with the fans today. But their popularity has never been the same since facing controversies. However, some Redditors think the Duggars may be able to get their hype back, but at a cost. Keep reading to see what it was.
Counting On: Jim Bob Duggar Covering Up Controversies?
Some Redditors have been speculating that Jim Bob tasked some of his kids with becoming more active on social media. This comes after Jana suddenly returned online after over two years of absence. Many Counting On fans were also surprised when Jessa went on a social media barrage this month, uploading vlogs and sharing stories about her kids. According to some, it seems that Jim Bob is trying to distract people from the new Ashely Madison documentary, where Josh was briefly mentioned. But others think that he’s aiming to make his family relevant again in the hopes of returning to reality TV.
Fans Think This Will Bring The Duggar Hype Back
Some Counting on fans on Reddit discussed how the Duggar family will bring back their online fame again. According to the poster, things have been dry in the Duggar family, and many of the kids are starting to keep their lives private. But several commenters believe that the family will become relevant again, but it won’t benefit them positively. Some said that they’re going to make headlines again if the IRS decides to knock on Jim Bob Duggar’s door, while others think new courtships and pregnancy announcements are the only hope for them to stay popular.
- “I’m waiting for the next scandal to drop. Ideally the IRS is going to knock on RimJob’s door.”
- “I’m waiting for IRS to show up at the TTH for Boob, as I have a feeling a scandal is about to drop.”
- “I’m tired of them too but will admit that I am waiting for JimBob to be taken down for tax evasion. I would just love to see his superiority complex burned to the ground. And Michelle can do her adoring gaze thing while he is being led out in handcuffs!”
- “The Duggars make me nostalgic for my mom. So I snark here and wait for the IRS to find good ol’ bOob.”
- “Not sure. This could go either way. Unless perv has more issues in prison, or gets out early, Anna leaves him, a kid speaks out against him, etc. Bc otherwise it’s “when’s Jackson and Johanna getting married?” “Will Jana ever?” And “who’s having another baby?” BTW. Anyone know what Joe and Kendra are up to?”
Counting On: Will Jana Duggar Enter Courtship Soon?
Jana caught the attention of many after returning to Instagram. The Counting On alum celebrated Mother’s Day by uploading a photo with her mother, Michelle Duggar. Jana’s return created several speculations, including the possibility that she’s about to enter courtship, which may also be the key to the Duggar family’s rise to fame.
Jana Duggar was reportedly linked to a pilot named Stephen Wissmann. They’ve been spotted multiple times, looking so close, and even spent Christmas with the Wissmanns in 2020. However, things suddenly disappeared between the two following Josh’s arrest.
