Josh & Anna Duggar: Did They Decide to Divorce at Jinger’s Wedding?

Posted on March 1, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s been weeks since we’ve had any update on the once-persistent Josh and Anna Duggar divorce rumors , but that doesn’t mean the troubled couple has managed to patch things up. Back in early February, Josh and Anna responded to the rumors  through a family spokesperson, who released a statement assuring fans that reports of their marriage coming to an and were “absolutely not true.” Since issuing that denial, the couple has remained silent on the subject, despite the fact that a number of new rumors have emerged that all seem to point to an impending breakup. The first round of reports claimed Josh and Anna were separating as a result of a damaging new lawsuit that – according to   The Daily Mail magazine – threatened to reveal the couple’s ” filthiest secrets .” Considering some of the secrets we’ve already heard about Josh, outmatching them in terms of filthiness would be no mean feat. Now, a new report from the Inquisitr suggests that Josh and Anna decided to part ways on the weekend that  Jinger Duggar got married to Jeremy Vuolo . There’s no word on what might have sparked the decision, but the wedding was one of the last times that Josh and Anna were spotted together in public. Did Josh behave inappropriately? Did the feeling that she was being judged by hundreds of guests lead Anna to the conclusion that it was time to cut her perverted husband loose? The first possibility seems unlikely, as Josh successfully concealed his first round of affairs and flirtations for several years. But there may be something to that second explanation, as Anna has admitted to struggling with how she’s perceived by family and friends since welcoming Josh back into her life. Whatever the case, a family insider recently told Perez Hilton that  “Anna hasn’t told Josh she wants a divorce, but a friend of hers put her in touch with a lawyer and Anna has spoken to the lawyer on the phone,” a source close to the Duggar family said, according to Perez Hilton. The source adds that Anna is nervous about proceeding, as divorce is strictly forbidden in the Duggars’ religious community: “She’s been putting off meeting them for some time because she was terrified of being spotted at their office, but she is now finally ready to make the move and will be visiting the attorney in the next week or so.” Josh was the first of his siblings to get married, and now it sounds like he might be the first to endure an ugly, high-profile divorce. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy! View Slideshow: 13 Reasons Why Anna Duggar Should Leave Josh NOW

Amy Duggar to Dillon King: Stop Acting Like a Rapist!

Posted on February 4, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Amy Duggar and Dillon King painted a picture of their relationship on Friday. And it wasn’t very pretty. The couple’s romantic woes were thrown into the stark spotlight on the latest episode of Marriage Boot Camp, which opened with the 19 Kids and Counting alum and her husband talking behind closed bedroom doors. “I swear, if that’s how you talk, I don’t know if this is going to work,” Duggar threatened, previewing the sort of problems that would soon come into even greater focus. The following day, each half of all the couples involved on the show were tasked with an exercise in which they decided (as a pair) which one was more at fault for certain issues in their relationships. Sounds totally healthy and like there’s no chance this exercise will backfire in any way, right? The problems were written on plates and the individual deemed to be the most significant offender was then instructed to break the plate. Got that, Dillon and Amy? The controversial stars almost immediately agreed that King was to blame for their communication issues. Amy noted how her husband struggled with his tone at times, and Dillon more or less agreed… while the tone that got him in trouble to begin with! Dillon claimed it was a “subconscious” habit, to which Amy shouted back, “That’s worse!” Later on during the episode, Amy and Dillon selected  communication as the biggest obstacle in their marriage. Everyone else on the show voted the same, by unanimous consent. This meant that Dillon, as the main culprit, received a pie in the face. And when it didn’t hit the target squarely enough, Amy went ahead and rubbed it in a lot more. How sweet, right? Literally, we mean. Because pie is sweet. Amy and Dillon have been open for awhile now about the difficulties in their relationship. You can’t exactly pretend you’re an idyllic couple when you agree to go on Marriage Boot Camp, can we? They got married in September of 2015 and then disappeared from the spotlight for several months, a rare move for anyone in this scandal-filled family. In a preview for this season of the WEtv series, Duggar tells a castmate that King was assaulted her . They’ve taken various shots at each other on air ever since episodes premiered. But still. Nothing prepared viewers for what Amy said to Dillon on Friday night. After seemingly resolving some of their issues, Duggar and King ended up back in their bedroom. And that’s when the disturbing exchange took place. “It sucks being treated like a child!” she yelled Dillon. Her husband replied by telling Amy she was being “overdramatic.” This is never a good thing to tell a woman, and Duggar fired back as follows: “When you treat me like a child, I feel like I’m being raped by an older man!”  Ummm, yikes?!? We don’t want to judge any relationship too harshly, even when it comes to those who choose to be under the microscope o a reality television show. However…. View Slideshow: Duggar Family Members: The Official Power Rankings! … when you feel as if you husband is raping you, that may simply be it. You may simply need to reevalute everything on the spot and call a divorce attorney ASAP. Do you agree? Do you think Dillon and Amy have a future? Heck, should they have a future? Sound off now!

Jill Duggar Reveals Baby’s Gender: It’s A …

Posted on January 30, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s barely been a month at this point since we first learned that Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard are expecting their second child. Now, we’ve already learned the gender of the new little baby! Jill’s due this summer (July, to be exact) and she’ll be having a …  … a boy! A boy! IT’S A BOY! How exciting, right? Jill and Derick are already parents to Israel Dillard, who was born in April of 2015, so they’ve got plenty of experience. The Dillards revealed the gender exclusively to People with a sweet little photo of the whole family holding up a cute baby boy’s outfit: A blue shirt with orange cargo pants. Very sweet. That was the reveal to the public, at least. For the family, they set up a scavenger hunt (a Duggar staple) for Jill’s younger siblings. It’s all so sweet, but then again, we knew that when Jill and Derick first announced the pregnancy  after months of speculation. “We are so excited to be expecting Dillard baby #2!” they said. “Children really are a wonderful blessing from God.” “Having Israel has been such a delight to us that we know a second sweet baby will only continue to add joy to our family,” they went on. “We are thankful to God for this sweet child and we cannot wait to see her or him face to face!” Jill and Derick said in their announcement. Maybe they’ll see a “her” next time around with #3? Or number four. Or number five. You get where we’re going with this. If Jill has even half the amount of children her mother Michelle ended up havin, she’s bound to see a “her” in there somewhere.  Just the law of averages, right? Jill and Derick have also spoken about adopting, which could improve their odds of adding a girl as well. Another bit of sweetness for you: When Jill’s brand new little boy is born in July, he’ll not only have a big brother, but he’ll have a cousin very close in age to play with. Jessa Duggar’s all set to give birth to her second child – whose gender she knows, but has not revealed to the public – any minute now! Over the weekend, Jessa, the wife of Ben Seewald,  shared a photo of her baby bump and announced that she was 39 weeks pregnant. In just a few weeks at the very most, the Duggars will have one more family member – the seventh grandchild for Jim Bob and Michelle. As we said before, Jessa’s kept quiet on whether she’s having a boy or a girl , so we’ll have to wait a little longer on that gender reveal. But enough about the Seewalds, for now, because she has to share the spotlight with her older sister, at least for the next couple of days. Let’s all congratulate Jill on her sure-to-be precious baby boy! For all that they’ve endured, she and Derick seem to be terrific parents. Best wishes for her and her growing family.

Kellyanne Conway Cites "Alternative Facts," Stars Slam Nitwit on Twitter

Posted on January 23, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kellyanne Conway shocked the world on Sunday, January 22, 2017.  How so? The Counselor to President Donald Trump claimed in an interview that White House press secretary Sean Spicer gave “alternative facts” in his description of the attendance size at the inauguration.  The celebrity world was not impressed with this assessment and took to social media to reveal their thoughts on the matter.  Scroll down to find out what they said… 1. Andy Cohen #alternativefacts is perhaps the greatest Real Housewives term I have ever heard. I can’t believe we haven’t heard it on a reunion. 2. George Takei Kellyanne Conjob made clear that the audit was a smokescreen, and we won’t be seeing Trump’s taxes. They’re full of ‘alternative facts. 3. Tony Goldwyn Kellyanne Conway just coined a very dangerous phrase like it’s the most normal thing in the world. #AlternativeFacts. 4. Sarah Silverman Lies now called ‘alternative facts’ by trump admin. 5. Zendaya Alternative facts….didn’t know that was a thing… a bit of an oxymoron. 6. Lance Bass As a member of the @backstreetboys, I had a love child with @BettyMWhite. #AlternativeFacts. View Slideshow

Derick Dillard Health Crisis: What’s Really Going On?

Posted on January 23, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For months now, fans of the Duggar family have been expressing their concerns about Derick Dillard’s health . There’s been no official word on what’s ailing Derick, but fans have noticed that the soon-to-be father of two appears to have lost a good deal of weight in a short amount of time, and often appears pale and tired. At first, the Duggars refused to acknowledge the controversy, but while Jim Bob likes to exercise complete control over his family’s privacy, he likes ratings even more, so it looks like we’ll finally start getting the inside scoop on the curious case of Derick Dillard. The first promos for the new season of Counting On hinted that Derick would confront his health problems after a series of scary incidents. The preview shows Derick vomiting while running, an episode that appears to have resulted in an emergency visit to the doctor. “It feels great to be home and run like I used to,” Derick tells the camera at one point, “but it is difficult sometimes.” Jill is seen explaining that physical exertion makes her husband “gaggy.” The strange symptom, coupled with Derick’s rapid and unexplained weight loss, has left fans worried. Adding to the problem is the fact that Derick’s appearance has changed not only as a result of his weight loss, but also because of extensive oral surgery. In late 2015, Derick had several bones in his face broken as part of an orthodontic procedure. The 27-year-old has been wearing braces ever since. Amidst all of these changes, the Dillards spent several months in El Salvador , performing missionary work in one of the Central American nation’s poorer sectors. So it’s possible that a series of major life changes have simply manifested themselves in Derick’s appearance and there’s no one thing majorly wrong with the reality star and substitute teacher. View Slideshow: Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Photos But whatever the case, you can be sure the Duggars will mine his health issues for ratings gold. With no weddings on the horizon and Jill’s baby not due until July (Jessa’s is due next month) storylines were reportedly tough to come by during the latest round of filming, and fans’ interest in Derick’s health shows no signs of letting up. Watch Counting On online to get caught up in time for this week’s episode.

Jim Bob & Michelle Duggar Introduce 20th Child!

Posted on January 9, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

As previously reported, the Duggar family recently welcomed their 20th child into their home under the most unlikely of circumstances. Now, Jim Bob and Michelle have introduced him on social media! For those who may have missed it last fall, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar were awarded guardianship of an eight-year-old boy named Tyler. Yes, JBD and his wife, who produced 19 children biologically (or 20 if you count stillborn Jubilee) acquired this one a little bit differently. Michelle has a 23-year-old niece, Rachel Hutchins, who has fallen on very hard times – unemployed, she’s homeless, and on probation. Sad as that is, Rachel’s son Tyler, was paying the price, and her mom (Michelle’s sister), who had been taking care of him, had a stroke. With T’s mom and grandma both unable to continue looking after him, Michelle Duggar nobly stepped in and took charge of the situation. Jim Bob were granted custody of their great-nephew, seen here: Despite having formally added Tyler to the family, the Duggars have only mentioned the boy occasionally, until posting the photo above. The picture revealed that Tyler was about to “finish off” the jug.  Of milk. That’s about as hardcore as beverages get for Duggar family members of any age, but hey, it does a body good and all that. Anyway, the post left fans asking questions about Tyler, but the family didn’t reply. Curiously, they asked for more privacy instead. The Duggar Family Blog, which is not run by, yet in close contact with the family, said that they sought privacy for the child at this time. “At this time, the Duggars are choosing not to reveal the details of the situation that resulted in them receiving guardianship of Tyler.” “We encourage fans to respect the [Duggar family’s] wishes, especially since there is a minor involved,” the site continued. That may change, and when and if “the family decides to share more information with the public, we will post it to our blog.” For now, though, we’re left with more questions than answers. Since the guardianship was granted by a judge, Tyler has been seen in numerous family photos, usually with little fanfare. He was seen participating in homeschooling with the other Duggars, to getting a pocket knife to match Josh’s son Michael’s . A family insider recently said that the guardianship is going well and that the family has high hopes of adopting him for good. That would be quite a storyline for Counting on Season 3, no? As it is, the Duggars are gearing up for a new season that features Jessa Duggar’s second pregnancy and Joy-Anna Duggar’s courtship . Moreover, we expect to see plenty of Jinger’s marriage to Jeremy Vuolo, and likely the announcement of Jill Duggar’s second pregnancy . The adoption story, though, would be the most surprising, and arguably the most heartwarming thing to happen in Tonititown in years. If not ever. Think about it for a second, Duggar Nation: Mating and procreating will always be the family’s meal ticket, but going above and beyond like this is both unexpected and beautiful. A little universally positive PR never hurt … just saying. View Slideshow: Duggar Family Members: The Official Power Rankings!

Jessa Duggar: Bracing For an Early Delivery?!

Posted on January 5, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

According to one of her most recent social media updates,  Jessa Duggar was 34 weeks pregnant  two weeks ago. We’re no mathematicians, but by our calculations, that makes her about 36 weeks pregnant now. The average pregnancy lasts 40 weeks beginning from the day of the woman’s last pregnancy, though the date of conception is usually about two weeks later. All of this is a very long, unnecessarily scientific way of saying Jessa’s due date is fast approaching. In all likelihood, it’s still several weeks away, but there are some fans who believe Jessa may be just about ready to pop, despite what she says on social media. This theory seems to be based on little aside from the fact that Jessa concealed her second pregnancy  from the media for most of her first trimester. We’re not sure why that would lead fans to believe that she actually got pregnant even earlier and kept it a secret even longer , but hey – our motto at THG is we report the nonsensical rumors, and you decide if they’re total BS. Okay, we guess there is one other thing adding to the speculation, which is the fact that Jessa hasn’t posted anything on Instagram in four days. We know what you’re thinking: Who the hell cares? And we believe you’re absolutely right to think that, but there are others who believe that Jessa’s absence from the ‘Gram is evidence that she’s already given birth to a little brother or sister for Spurgeon. We imagine its name is Pubert, or something similarly horrendous. The Jessa pregnacy truthers point out that Jessa usually posts on social media about once a day. They reason that her lack of selfies this week must mean that she’s already surrounded herself with hay and farm animals in a three-walled manger, or however the Duggars prepare to give birth. Obviously, this is a bit of a stretch, but it’s worth noting that Jessa and her female family members do tend to be pretty secretive about their pregnancies. We guess you don’t have much choice when 100% percent of your income comes from a reality show that’s centered entirely around weddings and births, and you’re not not allowed to get divorced.

Jessa Duggar Reaffirms Anti-Gay Views, Angers Fans

Posted on December 21, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s been a while since we’ve had a Duggar-related homophobia scandal, but if you think about it, it just wouldn’t be Christmas without it. Once again, a member of reality TV’s largest and most controversial family saying or doing something that alienates a large segment of the population. This year, it’s Jessa Duggar’s turn. Jessa, as you may know, has already shown a real talent in terms of pissing off people who aren’t exactly like her or who dare to have differing views. Take the time Jessa compared abortion to the holocaust , for example. With one social media tirade, the 24-year-old managed to offend countless groups. Impressive, in a terrible way. You can’t teach that sort of thing, and Jessa’s parents no doubt beamed with pride over their daughter’s ability to use her religious beliefs to denigrate others. Now, Jessa is proving once again that she’s the LeBron James of cultural insensitivity, coming through in the clutch to drain a pre-holiday buzzer beater of hate. Jessa knows that she’s at a stage in her “career” where she’s vulnerable to being canned by TLC if she’s too outspoken in her ultra-right-wing views. After all, the Duggars have been canceled once already for being atrocious, and their new series has consistently pulled in lackluster ratings. Plus, she probably learned a thing or two about keeping her prejudices relatively low-key after Phil Robertson got fired from Duck Dynasty. Robertson’s disgusting comments about the gay community didn’t get his show nixed, but it did forever tarnish it in many fans’ minds. That brings us to Jessa’s newest Instagram video … Jessa Duggar Watches Fixer Upper The above video shows Jessa watching the HGTV home improvement series Fixer Upper, starring Chip and Joanna Gaines. That may seem innocent enough (and who knows, maybe it is), but this is Duggar Nation. Fans read into everything. A lot. In this case, given her track record, maybe they have reason to. Is Jessa subtly passing her bigotry on to the next generation? Chip and Joanna Gaines were recently criticized for their alleged anti-gay views, and many are taking Jessa’s video as a show of support. This could be a case of social media users overreacting. In fact, to a certain degree, they most certainly are. But it does seem strange that Jessa never posted anything about the show or the Gaines’  before they were involved in this controversy. If it were anyone else, perhaps we’d give them the benefit of the doubt and chalk it up to little Spurge enjoying a home renovation series. But when the Duggars are involved, if it looks like their expressing some old-fashioned, ass-backwards prejudice, they probably are. View Slideshow: 13 Things BANNED in the Duggar Family

Jill Duggar: Pregnant with Baby #2!!!!!

Posted on December 20, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Duggar Family Tree will officially grow yet another branch in 2017. Mere hours after we wondered whether or not Jill Duggar was pregnant with her second child, as the result of a seemingly hidden baby bump in a new family photo , the reality star has now come out and confirmed: She IS pregnant with her second child! Hooray! Jill and husband Derick Dillard will become parents once again in July of next year. “We are so excited to be expecting Dillard baby #2!” Jill and Derick told People Magazine of the big news, adding: “Children really are a wonderful blessing from God. Having Israel has been such a delight to us that we know a second sweet baby will only continue to add joy to our family. “We are thankful to God for this sweet child and we cannot wait to see her or him face to face!” It sounds as if the Counting On star is still in her first trimester of pregnancy. However, she may have felt a bit of pressure to make this announcement now because her allegedly expecting state has been a source of speculation for weeks. Back around Thanksgiving, for example, Jill posed for a cute photo with Derick. Instead of being impressed by the delicious dinner fare around the couple, though, most social media followers honed in on Derick’s strategic hand placement. He appeared to be shielding a baby bump from the camera’s view, as you can take note of below: “Jill Duggar looks pregnant. Seems every pic I see she’s larger than the previous one,” wrote an astute Internet user in response to the photo above. Many believed that Jill was planning to wait and reveal her pregnancy on the Counting On Season 3 premiere, but alas. Here we are now instead! About a year ago at this time, Jill said on an episode of her hit reality series that son Israel (pictured being OH SO VERY CUTE below) was ready to “ be a big brother,” implying that he was a tad selfish and telling viewers: “I think it will be good for him, too. He’ll learn to share.” View Slideshow: Jill Duggar Baby Photos The Duggars, of course, live to earn TLC strong ratings and to procreate. With this sperm-egg fertilization, Jill is joining her younger sister in expanding her family: Indeed, younger sister Jessa (Duggar) Seewald and husband Ben announced in August of 2016 that they will soon welcome a sibling for son Spurgeon, who is only 13 months. And don’t expect the baby-making or child additions to stop there! Derick also revealed last December that he and Jill have an especially personal and sentimental reason for wanting to adopt a child at some point in their lives. “My mom’s adopted, so it kind of hits home with me,” Derick said at the time. “We both think it’s a wonderful thing. We’ve talked about it a lot, and we’re definitely considering it.” View Slideshow: Duggar Family Members: The Official Power Rankings! TLC’s Counting On shifts to Mondays (at 9/8c) on January 16 when it returns with new episodes. What sort of storylines can we expect to see? The network is here with your first look at what’s on tap: Counting On Season 3 Trailer: Pregnancies! Weddings! COURTING! But that’s down the line. For now, it’s all about Jill and Derick and their life-altering news! Join us in sending them your very best wishes for a happy and healthy pregnancy and baby, won’t you?
