After weeks of rumors, the Duggers have revealed some surprising news about a member of their clan. With political aspirations, religious underpinnings and strong family values, the Duggers are certainly not your average reality television stars. Jim Bob and Michelle sit at the top of the family tree, parenting a whopping 19 children and counting. However, despite their successful run on their very own show on TLC, the Duggers have been met with criticism, scandalous plagued them, and they've been the focal point of countless rumors circulating in the press. Here say has been particularly prevalent in the past few weeks regarding a member of the group, but hasn't been addressed by the family themselves. Well now that is, yes the Duggers have finally made a startling revelation about one of their own, but it's not about whom you think it is. Few families in entertainment have garnered as much attention in the current century as the Duggers. As parents of the family, Jim Bob and Michelle made waves due to their choice of lifestyle and religious commitments. These resulted in landing their very own reality television program on TLC, entitled 19 and Counting. They came under fire from those who support birth control who were alarmed by their large family. Jim Bob and Michelle, who were developed baptists, maintained that they were willing to let God decide how many children they produce after an unfortunate miscarriage suffered by Michelle, something that they claim was exacerbated by using birth control. Two members of the Duggers family, Josh and Anna, took to their blog in 2015 to say, being in the public eye, people often disagree with our beliefs or the way we've chosen to live our lives. Our goal in life is to share of the hope that we have in Christ and to use whatever platform he's given us to do so. Regardless the show went on to become one of TLC's biggest hits. Indeed it raked in millions of viewers, clamoring to see how the family lived their unorthodox lives. However, in 2015, 19 and Counting was dealt a huge blow when Joshua Dugger admitted committing a heinous act. The show was axed after its 10th season when it surfaced that Joshua Dugger had molested five girls when he was a teenager, four of which were his sisters. The shocking news proved too much to handle for the TLC network, which promptly canned the show. Despite the series' cancellation in 2015, it didn't take long for the other Dugger children to land their own show on TLC, named Counting On. It follows the lives of the other family members, with particular attention paid to Jill, Jessica, Joseph, and Ginger. And just recently, Ginger has been the focal point of many rumors in the press. Many of these have speculated that she's in fact pregnant with husband Jeremy Vulo's baby. The couple who've been wed for over a year have surprisingly not brought a child into the world as of yet. Pregnancy rumors were further fueled when Vulo said in an episode of Counting On, I think we'd love to start a family somewhere in that time period in the next five years and see what the Lord does. However, in 2018, it's been finally confirmed. They spilled the beans to us weekly, stating, we both look forward to the joys of marriage, but neither one of us fully understood just how amazing the start of this journey would be. Truly, the Lord's mercies are new every morning. Now the journey is taken an exciting turn. We're expecting our first child. They went on. We're praising God for this beautiful gift and ask that you join us in praying for a safe and healthy pregnancy. Surprisingly though, they won't be the next dougar pair to give birth to a baby. No it turns out that Joseph and Kendra are actually the next in the family to become parents, announcing that they're expecting their first child. The news broke in December 2017 with TLC releasing a video of the two announcing the pregnancy. Joseph said, I've always dreamed of having my own family, and it's really just kind of surreal that it's actually here. Following the sex of the baby he added, I kind of think it's going to be a boy, but clarified that he's just happy to have the baby. Meanwhile Kendra isn't so sure, saying, I think it could be a girl. You never know. Either way the two dougars will be having their first child in 2018. The two love birds stated how they wanted the baby to inherit certain traits from each other. Joshua commented, I hope the baby has Kendra's laugh. Meanwhile Kendra injected, I hope the baby will be patient like Joe. It's clear that this married couple are still very much in the honeymoon phase. Joseph and Kendra became husband and wife in September 2017 after a surprise proposal at Joseph's sister Joy's wedding. He told people in May 2017, we're super excited. It's great to not be courting anymore, now we're engaged. Unsurprisingly Kendra was also overcome with emotion. He told the same publication, I'm so happy and so shocked. There's so many words I want to say, but just shocked. It followed months of dating, but incredibly the wedding ceremony was the first time that the loved up pair kissed. Speaking on the counting on wedding special, moments before walking down the aisle, Joseph relayed, it's only 30 minutes until my first kiss. I'm super excited. It's something that we decided to save for marriage, and it's a very special moment, because I don't think a whole lot of people are able to say they've done that. The big occasion clearly meant a lot to the two of them. Joseph told his bride, the first kiss was actually even greater than I expected. It was worth every year, every day that I waited. And now they're married and settled down in Arkansas. It's understandable that they want to build their own family. Meanwhile the news of the pregnancy has fans of the married couple waiting to see how their journey unravels. TLC put fears to rest in December 2017, stating, don't worry, you'll be able to keep following Joe and Kendra's story when counting on returns to TLC in spring 2018. Curious television viewers don't have to wait long to hear how Joseph and Kendra's pregnancy is going. Indeed, the next season of counting on is slated to start on February 26th. And it's a season that is sure to have many revelations scattered throughout it. Joshua Dugger's scandal may have cast a cloud over the family, but that's no reflection on Joseph and Kendra's relationship. The pair seemed overjoyed with their marriage, as well as the news that they're about to have their first child. What's not to love about that? Please share this video with your friends below.
