The Duggar Family News: Jim Bob And Michelle Stricter On Joy-Anna's Courtship; Jinger To Blame? Learn Why!
The Duggars just celebrated Jinger and Jeremy Vuolo's wedding but is there another Duggar wedding soon now that Joy-Anna is already courting? Well, it seems unlikely. Reports have it that Jim Bob is stricter with Joy-Anna's dating compared to her older sisters.
For those following the "19 Kids and Counting" clan you already know that the family has their own traditional courtship rules. They called it courting and the Duggar in a relationship will be chaperoned by an older sibling during their dates. Also, physical contact is very limited as only side hugs are allowed.
According to Morning Ledger Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are more keen into following Joy-Anna's courtship as Jinger has been violating the courtship rules prior to getting married to Jeremy Vuolo. The "19 Kids and Counting" parents were reportedly disappointed that Jinger took her relationship with Vuolo too quickly.
Clearly, the "Jill & Jessa: Counting On" stars want their daughter Joy-Anna to not follow Jinger's example. According to the Hollywood Gossip, this is a bad timing for Joy-Anna to start courting if she wishes to have more freedom with her beau. Jinger's courting with Jeremy has been scrutinized, so understandably the Duggar matriarch and patriarch will be stricter this time.
In fact, in one photo it can be seen that Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar chaperoned Joy-Anna in her date with Austin Forsyth. However, even if the Duggars are extra strict with the courtship rules this time, this doesn't really mean that they don't want Joy-Anna's boyfriend.
In fact, according to US Weekly, the family already loves Forsyth. In one video clip, Michelle expressed how thankful they are for Austin and added that they are excited about Joy-Anna and Austin's future.
When will Joy-Ann and Austin get married? Will they extend their courtship or wed next year? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
