Since 19 Kids and Counting skyrocketed Jill Duggar into the spotlight, she’s experienced plenty of ups and downs with her parents and siblings. Fans first met the Duggars in 2008 when their TLC reality series, originally titled 17 Kids and Counting , premiered. The show highlighted the devout Baptist family’s day-to-day lives, from homeschooling to courtships.
However, the network suspended the series in May 2015 after it was revealed that Jill’s brother Josh Duggar had molested multiple girls as a teenager. One month later, Jill and her sister Jessa Duggar came forward as two of Josh’s victims. Jill and Jessa, as well as their respective husbands, Derick Dillard and Ben Seewald , returned for a spinoff series, titled Counting On , in 2015 after 19 Kids was officially canceled.
Jill and Derick left the show in 2017. (TLC canceled Counting On in 2021 following Josh’s conviction for possessing child pornography.) You have successfully subscribed.
