Kendra Caldwell SLAMMED for Endangering Her Unborn Child?!

Life is tough for a Duggar woman. Like, real tough. You get married as young as possible most of the time, and from then on out you’re pretty much just a baby factory. Yep, if your last name is Duggar and you have a uterus, you best believe that uterus is going to do some hard time . Oh, and definitely be prepared to be judged for each and every choice, valid or terrible, you make while parenting your gaggle of kids. One of your “duties” is to make yourself available to your husband at all times — meaning if he wants sex, well, then you better get to sexin’. If you like fashion and beauty, you don’t have too many options, because you have to dress modestly and haircuts should be few and far between. (Apparently perms are OK though? Whatever, Michelle.) The Duggars believe so strongly in their fashion choices that it’s been actual news when one of the girls has worn pants . For real. Now that we’ve gone over all that, let’s take a gander at this new photo of Joseph Duggar’s wife, Kendra Caldwell, with Amy Duggar: With the rules of Duggar ladies fresh in your mind, there’s a good chance you see a few issues with the picture already, right? If you don’t though, don’t worry — Amy posted this photo on Instagram, and you know her followers were ready and willing to tear this apart. First, let’s take a look at Kendra’s attire here. Because yes, she is wearing a skirt while tubing! “Is that a skirt in the snow?!” one concerned citizen asked. Another said “It’s weird to me to be sledding in a skirt — it’s actually hilarious to me.” For the Duggars though, the skirt does make sense. Kendra’s wearing pants underneath the skirt, but the skirt’s purpose is to hide any of her figure that might have shown through the pants. Modesty, get it? The bigger issue here for most people is that Kendra and Joseph just announced that they’re expecting their first child , so for Kendra to do a physical activity while pregnant, that’s not OK. One person called this “not something you should do while pregnant,” and another said “Kendra um aren’t you pregnant not very wise.” “I’m not her doctor but I do care about a precious unborn baby’s safety,” someone else wrote. “I don’t think people should intentionally do things that could cause harm to their unborn baby.” “I would just not risk getting a injury to myself or my baby if it wasn’t a must,” yet another cautious commenter said. “I’m sure there is safer activities she can do while she’s pregnant that are fun and less risky.” “She can flip on the tube or hit a bump or tree. I just don’t think it’s the best idea.” View Slideshow: Joseph Duggar & Kendra Caldwell Wedding: First Kiss (and More) Revealed! The thing is, and many of Amy’s followers pointed this out, Kendra is barely three months pregnant, if that. Doing some tubing down a hill like this isn’t going to hurt anything. What do you think: should Kendra take her skirt and her fetus inside, or is she fine?

Jinger Duggar: Birth Control Rumors Spread as Fan Favorite Remains Childless

Earlier this week, the world learned that Kendra Caldwell is pregnant with Joseph Duggar’s baby. As is always the case with Duggar baby news, the announcement was greeted with enthusiasm from the family’s devoted fan base–but it also reminded many of a mystery that continues to grow with the passage of time: It’s been over a year since Jinger Duggar and Jeremy Vuolo got married , and yet the couple remains childless. As the pregnancies of Kendra Caldwell and Joy-Anna Duggar have recently reminded us, this is highly unusual in Jinger’s family. (Kendra and Joy both announced that they’re expecting within a few months of tying the knot. Some believe that Joy didn’t even wait until she was married .) Thus far, all of Jinger’s sisters have gotten pregnant within a year of getting married, and some have even given birth prior to their one-year anniversary. So it’s not hard to see why fans are growing increasingly curious about Jinger and Jeremy’s apparent reluctance to start a family. Some have even gone so far as to suggest that Jinger is on birth control . Like wearing pants as a woman or marrying a man whose religious beliefs don’t perfectly coincide with your father’s, using birth control is no big deal throughout most of the civilized world, but these are the Duggars we’re talking about. They’re civilized in the sense that they sleep indoors and use silverware, but they’d be the first to tell you that their belief system bears little in common with the average American’s code of conduct. Birth control is strictly forbidden in the Duggars’ world, and Jim Bob and Michelle have even recorded videos in which they preach about its evils. Jinger may rebel against her parents’ teachings in small, mostly inconsequential ways (see the aforementioned wearing of pants), but finding out that she’s using birth control would likely push Jim Bob and Michelle over the edge. Fortunately, for the most part, Duggar fans have proven to be uncharacteristically level-headed with regard to this issue. Recently, the Duggars posted a photo of Jeremy and Jinger on their Facebook page, and the comments section quickly devolved into the usual flurry of uterine speculation. But for every “fan” throwing shade, there were three getting Jinger’s back: “Jinger raised kids all her life, she might not want kids or she just wants to wait,” one commenter wrote. “Maybe they’re not waiting, maybe she’s having trouble conceiving. Give the poor girl a break, when she’s pregnant they’ll announce it,” remarked another. “I think these two are being smart and will choose to have children on their own timetable,” a third wrote. Is it possible that Duggar fans are beginning to let go of their judgmental tendencies a bit? Maybe, but many of these same people will likely lose it if 2018 passes without any baby news from Jinger. Watch Counting On online for more on reality TV’s most controversial family.

Derick Dillard: Snubbed By the ENTIRE Duggar Family?!

Derick Dillard has a lot on his plate these days.  He’s a father of two, a reality star, an aspiring preacher, and now, it appears he’s fashioning himself into some sort of social media firebrand. Yes, apparently encouraged by the response to his attack on Jazz Jennings , Derick has begun rebranding himself as a professional social media jackass. Derick is forever trying to raise money for the esteemed Derick Dillard Doesn’t Want to Work a Full-Time Job fund, so it’s not hard to see why he would relish the attention. The more eyes on his posts, the more potential donors to his “cause.” But telling your followers that there’s no racism in America and condemning vanity and greed while simultaneously starring in a reality show and begging for money are actions bound to attract negative attention. And it’s not just the usual Duggar critics who are coming down hard on Derick. In fact, there are rumors that no one is more upset with Derick’s latest actions than the Duggars themselves. Derick married Jill Duggar back in 2014, and for the most part, he’s been the sort of compliant (read: spineless) son-in-law that Jim Bob prefers. But the rumblings out of Tontitown these days indicate that Derick’s efforts to make a name for himself are not sitting well with his in-laws. According to the Duggar-centric Facebook page Life Is Not All Pickles and Hairspray, relations between Derick and the Duggars (great band name, btw) have deteriorated to the point that Jill and her husband were seated separately from the rest of the family at Joseph Duggar and Kendra Caldwell’s wedding  in September. The seating arrangement is being widely interpreted as a massive snub, but there’s some disagreement as to why Derick might be on the outs with his in-laws. Most believe it’s the result of his recent political ravings, but there’s another theory, as well. Many Duggar fans are now wondering if there’s some legitimacy to the recent rumors that Derick was caught cheating on Jill . Derick’s been working closely with college students as part of his outreach efforts for his church in recent months. Reports of an inappropriate relationship with a female student were recently bolstered by a series of tweets Derick posted about the importance of marital fidelity. Given the Duggars’ knack for keeping skeletons in the closet, we may never know for sure just what Derick did to anger his in-laws. But it’s clear he’s not exactly Jim Bob’s favorite son-in-law these days. Watch Counting On online for more from reality TV’s most controversial family.

Joseph Duggar & Kendra Caldwell: Excited to Finally … Side Hug?!

Well, the Duggars are officially back on television, which means courtships, weddings, and an ever-growing army of newborns. The latest to be granted permission to breed are Joseph Duggar and Kendra Caldwell, who got married  just a few days in real life. On the show, however, Joe and Kendra are just beginning the courtship that will eventually lead them to the altar. Yes, that’s how quickly Joseph and Kendra’s courtship moved : The couple got married before the season depicting their courtship even began. As is customary in the Duggar fam, Joseph went all out with his courtship proposal . We’d call it a “court-posal,” but that sounds like a term an overly-romantic process server uses to describe delivering a subpoena. Anyway, Joseph and Kendra went to the concrete slab that marks the spot where the home he was born in formerly stood. The idea, as explained by Joe, is that he wants his new life with Kendra to begin on the very spot where his first life began. It’s a very romantic sentiment, but it’s somewhat marred by the fact that there’s no longer a structure standing on the premises, and Joe had to drag Kendra to a car auction first in order to maintain the element of surprise. Sadly, for all the thought that Joe put into his proposal, Duggar fans on social media were most interested in the scene in which he and Kendra revel in the fact that they’ll finally be permitted to have physical contact with one another. Yes, the young couple was downright giddy over the fact that they can now “side-hug,” and Twitter had a field day, because … well, that’s weird. If you follow the family closely, you’re probably aware that the Duggar courtship rules are extremely strict, and they prohibit all forms of contact before courtship. Once a couple is courting, they’re permitted to engage in side-hugs that last no longer than three seconds. Joseph and Kendra reiterated some of his families more bizarre policies, informing viewers that they would not hold hands or be alone together until after they’re married. Yes, the men and women of the Duggar clan often get married without ever having been alone with their spouse. In this case, the whole thing was made all the more surreal by the fact that Jedediah Duggar courted Kendra before she switched brothers and wound up with Joe. It’s a very strange situation … and it’s exactly the sort of thing we’ve come to expect from the Duggar clan. Watch Counting On online for more from reality TV’s most controversial family.

Danielle Bregoli Meets Kim Kardashian: A Match Made in …

Cash … Kardash  her ousside? … No, we can’t do it. Danielle Bregoli, still best known as the Cash Me Ousside (How Bow Dah?) girl , met another celebrity, and the two even posed for a photo. It’s always great when troubled young teenager meets a real role model. But sometimes they just meet Kim Kardashian, instead. Okay, so Kim Kardashian isn’t technically the worst role model. She’s a successful businesswoman. She’s a wife and mother. And, as it turns out, Kim doesn’t do coke after all ! Compared to Danielle Bregoli’s environment growing up, that basically makes Kim a saint. (Not to be confused with Kim’s son, Saint) But Danielle seems to be poised to continue to capitalize on her newfound fame — just as Kim Kardashian once did. Danielle is also set to have her own reality series , which sounds like a mess but possibly an irresistible one. So … Kim and Danielle might come from different worlds, but Danielle still has a few things in common with Kim’s younger self. The meeting, however, wasn’t to talk strategy or some sort of bizarre reality crossover event. Danielle Bregoli’s meeting with Kim Kardashian wasn’t a big deal , according to Danielle. “I was eating lunch. We have a mutual friend. I walked up and said hello, took a pic together, that was it.” So it wasn’t even really a  meeting  in that sense. They weren’t comparing notes, or strategizing. Hell, they weren’t even just hanging out and getting to know one another. They they just …  literally met. And, unlike when Danielle Bregoli and David Spade slammed each other after meeting, it was pretty low-key. (Thank goodness — if they ever feuded, Kim would crush Danielle without batting an eye) Danielle has had some  unkind things to say about Kylie Jenner  and other members of the Kardashian family in the past, so you’d think that Kim wouldn’t have given her the time of day, right? As it turns out, Kim didn’t even know who Danielle was, and thought that she was just another fan. That sounds like a slight against Danielle. But actually it’s not a great sign for Kim. Who in the world doesn’t know about Cash Me Ousside? Even people who are so old that they watch Dr. Phil know about her. It’s impossible to ignore something like Cash Me Ousside within American Youth Culture, even if Danielle isn’t still lingering in everyone’s minds. (Danielle needs to come out with that show now or she’ll be forgotten before it airs) We’re not saying that this social blindspot heralds the end of Kim’s relevance. Far from it. But the next time that someone tries to point to Kim as someone who’s fully immersed in the culture, point to this. Ultimately, Danielle Bregoli could be famous for years. But if all that comes next is more legal troubles for her bad behavior, people will get bored. She needs to make some good headlines to keep treading water until her show airs, whenever it airs. In fact … that might be what this quick photo op was really all about.

Joseph Duggar & Kendra Caldwell: Slammed For Seeking Wedding Gifts From Fans!

If you watch Counting On online , you know that the Duggar family is in the midst of what folks in the business world call aggressive expansion. It’s a full-blown flurry of births, pregnancies, and weddings, and things are progressing so rapidly that the big events are starting to overlap. In fact, Joy-Anna Duggar’s recent wedding was the scene of a major milestone for one of her siblings: Joseph Duggar proposed to Kendra Caldwell during the reception and, as is customary for members of the Duggar clan, only a few months will pass between the proposal and the exchange of vows. Last week, we learned the date of Joseph and Kendra’s wedding , and to the surprise of no one, it’s coming right up. The couple will say “I do” on October 7, in Rogers, Arkansas. It’s unsual for Duggar couples to be so forward about the date and location of their nuptials, but Joseph and Kendra might have ulterior motives for sharing their  Several members of the Duggar family, including Joy-Anna, have taken to social media to confirm the date of the wedding. Presumably, Joseph and Kendra would’ve posted the news, too, were it not for the fact that the Duggars frown on the idea of their children posting on social media prior to marriage. So what’s wrong with sharing wedding details online? Well, nothing, per se. The problem in this case, is that Joy-Anna and others also decided to share the couple’s wedding registry online, and to many fans, the move seems like a desperate cash grab. There’s nothing unusual about the items on Joseph and Kendra’s registry . It’s mostly common household items and gift certificate to chain restaurants. The problem is that posting the wish list publicly seems like away to solicit gifts from fans. Not surprisingly, some fans expressed their disapproval on Joy-Anna’s Instagram page: “Very, very uncool. There are ways to circulate this info to the guests. This a gift solicitation for the FANS,” wrote one follower. “Why would complete strangers who aren’t even invited to the wedding purchase wedding gifts for them?” commented another. Some were so surprised by the move that they assumed Joy-Anna had been hacked: “Were you hacked, cause this would be a great scam for someone trying to take advantage of the couple and get their gifts. Also, if not hacked, still a scam. Maybe ask people to donate to a charity in honor of your wedding? Ridiculous,” wrote one fan. The post hasn’t been deleted, so a hack seems unlikely. View Slideshow: Duggar Family Members: The Official Power Rankings! This isn’t the first time that a controversy has erupted aroung the Duggars asking for money from fans, and as in previous cases, the family seems unapologetic in their desire for more stuff. But hey, we’re sure they can point to a Bible verse that they’ve interpreted as a paraphrasing of Michael Douglas’ “greed is good” speech from Wall Street .

Joseph Duggar: SLAMMED for Proposing on Joy-Anna’s Wedding Day!

Joy-Anna Duggar married Austin Forsyth yesterday in, from what we’ve heard so far, was an absolutely lovely ceremony . So lovely, in fact, that her big brother Joseph was moved to propose to his girlfriend , Kendra Caldwell, right then and there. What a beautiful turn of events, right? As they explained in a new interview, “We are super excited. It’s great not to be courting anymore, now we’re engaged!” Kendra said that she is “so happy and so shocked. There’s so many words I want to say, but just shocked.” Joseph added that “I was definitely nervous going into it, but I wasn’t afraid that she wasn’t afraid she was going to say no, because she has said, ‘ I’m just waiting on you! ‘” And what better time to propose than at your little sister’s wedding?! Just think: your whole family is already there, everyone’s already dressed up. There are beautiful decorations just waiting to be taken advantage of, and love is undoubtedly in the air. But, if you can even believe it, there are some people who think it wasn’t right for Joseph to propose on Joy-Anna’s wedding day. There are actually many, many people who share that sentiment. When the Duggars shared the news of the engagement on their official Facebook page, comments flooded in about how rude and disrespectful it is to propose during a wedding. Even though Joseph reportedly received permission from Joy-Anna and Austin before proposing, fans were still bothered. “They could have literally done it any other day,” one person wrote, “eve”n any other hour of the day. They will stop at nothing to stay relevant. Gross.” Another person wrote “That is ridiculously rude. Not just to the bride and groom, but to his fiance as well. She should get a super planned day of her own. I mean a marriage, proposal, and all on grandma’s birthday.” Others commented with things like “Way to take the attention away from the bride and groom” and “Talk about stealing the bride’s moments …” One particularly sad comment read “With 19 siblings, I’m sure deep down inside Joy wanted one day that was all hers. She probably said that her brother could propose at her reception just to be nice.” “Joseph should have known better. I hope someone takes the spotlight off him at his wedding.” So was Joseph in the wrong for using his sister’s special day for his own proposal? Or do you think Joy-Anna and her brand new husband were happy to share the love? Or perhaps you’re just overwhelmed by the amount of Duggars currently courting, marrying, and reproducing . Anything’s possible. View Slideshow: 23 Biggest Duggar Family Scandals: How Low Can They Go?!
