Audrey Roloff Is Facing MAJOR Mom Guilt While Traveling!

Guilt is a common go-to emotion for moms, but it shouldn’t be!  Moms deserve a break too, it’s just science — quality alone time every now and then is essential to a happy and healthy life!  But as for Audrey Roloff, well she is experiencing some intense mom guilt ( again! ) due to her recent book tour.  The Little People, Big World star took to Instagram on Monday admitting that her recent travels to promote the launch of her new book, A Love Letter Life , left her missing daughter Ember.  And even led to her experiencing a serious case of “mom guilt,” according to Pop Culture .  Audrey, who shares one-year-old Ember with husband Jeremy Roloff, left on her week-long tour last week.  “Finally home with Ember girl. She had so much fun with Gigi and Papa but we missed her like crazy,” Roloff captioned the sweet photo of her and her daughter together at last.  “I’ll be honest… I felt the mom guilt start to creep in at times while we were gone,” she admitted to her fans.  But luckily a good friend of the Always More creator reached out and offered some kind advice to the worried mom.  “She said, ‘when we leave our children for small stretches of time with people that love them so well, it teaches them that they are safe and loved even when mommy and daddy are not around,'” Audrey recalls. Those words completely changed Audrey’s perspective and she began to see the time apart as a gift to Ember, saying, she will “eventually blaze her own trail in this world without me.” “It is just another reminder to me that I am NOT in control, and that God’s past faithfulness demands my present trust,” she concluded. But she is still beyond excited to be back in Oregan.  “All this to say… there really is no place like home.” Although she was initially experiencing some regret over her short trip, many of Roloff’s followers naturally offered their love and voice of support.  “Definitely an amazing perspective most parents need to hear. What a wonderful reminder,” one fan wrote.  Another acknowledged that leaving a child “has been my hardest thing of all as a mama, but precious women have spoken this over me over and over again! Praises for that!”  Writer Danielle Walker even chimed in saying, “Coming home to them is so sweet too.” Prior to leaving for her latest tour, Roloff confessed that she “broke down” before having to leave and that she had been trying to “get a little extra cuddle time in.” (aww)  But now, we are all cheering as the adorable mother-daughter duo is finally reunited once again. Until mom’s next get-away!  It will get easier with time, and soon enough this redhead beauty will be begging for some more momcation trips.   View Slideshow: Audrey Roloff Shares Ember’s Birth Story, Keeps It Very Real

Joe Giudice: Suicidal as He Awaits Deportation?

These are dark times in the life of the man once known as Juicy Joe. Though Joe Giudice has been released from prison after serving three years of a four-year sentence on tax fraud charges, the former reality star’s problems might be just getting started. You see, Joe was born in Italy, and despite several decades of living in the United States, he never bothered to become an American citizen. This, despite the fact that as a well-off white guy married to a woman who was born here, it would probably would have been very easy for Joe to become a citizen. As a result, of this lapse in judgment, Joe is set to be deported. He went straight from prison to an ICE detention center in Pennsylvania — which sounds an awful lot like prison. “Joe’s in a tough spot right now,” Teresa’s brother , Joe Gorga, tells Us Weekly . “He’s locked up in a jail cell with bars” Joe’s adds. “The other facility that he was at, he wasn’t in a jail cell. So he’s having a very, very hard time, and he really wants to get out.” Though the Joes were never exactly besties, it’s clear that Gorga is feeling sympathetic toward his troubled brother-in-law these days. “He got released [from prison in March] — ICE took him over — and he’s miserable,” says Gorga. There are several factors contributing to Joe’s misery, not the least of which is that it looks as though Teresa Giudice plans to leave him once he’s shipped off to the Mediterranean. “If he’s deported, she’s not going to go to Italy,” Gorga claims. “She’s not going to move her children. It’s just that there’s nothing to do in Italy. There’s no jobs; the best you can do is work in a restaurant or work in a gas station,” he adds. “It’s very difficult in Italy. … So I believe she’s making the right decision for her and for her girls.” Insiders have claimed that Joe has been placed on suicide watch, but thus far, authorities have not confirmed or denied that there’s any risk of Giudice taking his own life. In what might actually be a good in terms of his mental state, it appears that Joe is still clinging to hope. His lawyers are hard at work on an appeal, and he’s been in almost daily contact with Teresa, despite the fact that his deportation would likely mean the end of their marriage. “They talk almost every day,” says Gorga of Joe and Teresa’s communications. “Believe it or not, he could call as many times as he wants. It’s crazy. I mean, if he wants to call 30 times a day, he can. So they talk a lot.” But it sounds as though Teresa is keeping the lines of communication open primarily in order to appease her husband. Gorga says her top priority remains her children, and she would never dream of uprooting her family and moving to Italy, “Teresa’s put up a good front, but our relationship is very tight right now and [I] know she breaks down to me,” Gorga says. “She just has to keep it strong for those for little girls [daughters Gia, 18, Gabriella, 14, Milania, 13, and Audriana, 9],” he adds. “The girls are having it rough also. “They’re really struggling. … It’s just very, very hard. The family is going through a very tough time right now.” Stating the obvious, Gorga concludes, “Life is very hard for them.” Yes, Joe and Teresa may have had it coming — but it’s hard not to feel sympathetic toward the entire Giudice clan right now.

Tarek El Moussa Ruins Pregnant Ex-Wife’s Gender Reveal In Ultimate Douche Move

Despite the fact that Tarek and Christina El Moussa’s divorce was anything but amicable, it seems the couple has managed to mostly patch up their differences in order to work out an amicable co-parenting relationship. Of course, Tarek may have just flushed all that goodwill down the toilet with one boneheaded blunder that might have been an intentional act of malice. As you may have heard, Christina has gotten re-married to a dude named Ant Anstead, who is amazingly not Antman’s alter-ego. Not only that, Christina and Ant are expecting a child together — and it sounds like everyone is pretty psyched about it. Obviously, Christina and Ant are excited, and it seems their joy is shared by Christina’s kids from her marriage with Tarek, and even Tarek himself is happy for the newlyweds. In fact, Ant couldn’t STFU about his ex’s big news during a recent interview with TMZ Live . “I’m excited for her new chapter in life,” he began, innocently enough. “And they’re a great couple and I really do hope the best for them.” So things started out on a positive note, but they quickly took a turn for the idiotic: “She’s remarried, she’s actually pregnant, everyone knows that,” Tarek added. “She’s having a son. My kids are super excited.” Yeah, that’s great that he’s so happy for his ex, but there’s one problem with Tarek’s statements: Christina and Ant had not yet revealed the baby’s gender, and they were likely planning to do so in the form of a lucrative exclusive with People magazine or some such outlet. The couple has thus far remained quiet on the subject of Christina’s ex ruining their surprise and screwing them out of a payday, but one of their reps issued a statement to People that can only be described as downright icy: “While Christina and Ant wished they could have shared the news themselves, they are very excited to welcome a baby boy in the fall,” said the insider. Yikes. Did anyone else get a chill down their spine reading that? Clearly, Christina is none too thrilled with her ex’s revelation, but fortunately, these two are no longer working together. Tarek recently announced that he’ll be breaking away from Christina for an as-yet-untitled HGTV show in which he “partners with real estate novices to help them learn the secrets of a successful flip.” “[Christina and I] have been working together so long, and we’re just so intertwined with all our businesses and all our shooting that it’s kind of refreshing to go off on my own now and try some new opportunities,” Tarek told TMZ. As a bonus, he won’t have to spend time around a woman he just royally screwed who has easy access to power tools. View Slideshow: Christina El Moussa Photos: Flip or Flop Hotness!

Chris Marek: Scared to Marry Amy Roloff?

Little People, Big World star Amy Roloff was married to Matt Roloff for 27 years, but she seems excited to get hitched again. Or at least open to the idea. Boyfriend Chris Marek, however, seems a little … lukewarm at best when it comes to marriage. Last night on an all-new  Little People, Big World , Amy and Chris went on a camping trip with their friends Ron and Beth. Ron and Beth, Chris explains, got together around the same time, and “are trying to figure out what the future looks like.” “They’ve discussed marriage and living together, and they’re at that point where they’re trying to work that out.” Which is awkward for Chris. Because … Well, it’s been two and a half years of dating, and Amy is getting to the point where she’s interested in a long-term commitment. “I met Matt at a conference. I saw him four times, [then] we were married,” she says of her ex-husband, with whom she has four kids. “So dating Chris, I’m calling up my girlfriends and I’m like, ‘What is dating?! I don’t even know what the hell that is.” Chris, when asked about marriage? “I’ve seen a lot of failed marriages, a lot of divorces, in my family. All my siblings, my mother,” he says. “I mean, I saw a lot of examples of people that loved each other but could not live with each other.” “But I’m certainly not against marriage,” Marek adds. “I never thought I’d be this age and still single.” “I’m glad to see that you’re not against marriage, because that would be a problem,” Amy responded. [Crickets] Amy Roloff Fans Slam Chris Marek, Question His “Creepy” Motives “I’m certainly enjoying our journey,” Chris adds, but Amy wasn’t going to let it drop on that note, adding: “Marriage still works. It is an institution that does work … I’ve seen enough where it does give me hope.” Sounds like she’s dropping hints left and right. Later, Amy told the TLC reality show’s cameras that getting married is still “very, very important” to her. “Even though I’m divorced, I still value and will hold up high the whole concept, the reason, the purpose,” she said. “And if by chance I get to do that again, I would still put everything that I can, as best as I can, to make it work.” Nice to see one divorce hasn’t clouded her views on future relationships at what is clearly a different phase of life. As for how she views her current partner’s views? View Slideshow: Chris Marek: Who is Amy Roloff’s Boyfriend?!? “Chris doesn’t express commitment,” Amy says. “It’s definitely more of an indirect way, so, you know, I was pleasantly surprised that he is open to marriage.” “I’m not here to push him, I’m not here for him to do something that he is nowhere [near] ready for.” “But if marriage is meant to happen for me again, the second time, then I would sing ‘Hallelujah.’” Your move, Chris. Your move. View Slideshow: Amy Roloff Birthday Photo Montage: I Feel So Loved!

Khloe Kardashian: Tristan Thompson is an Immature Narcissist!

Tristan Thompson is garbage. Absolute garbage. We know it, you know it, Khloe Kardashian has finally been acknowledging it . At this point, it’s just a fact. Tristan’s problem — well, he probably has several, but we mostly just hear about this one — is that he refuses to keep in his pants, ever. His ex, Jordan Craig, was pregnant with his child when he began dating Khloe, so that was the first sign that perhaps he should reevaluate his actions. The second was when he got Khloe pregnant and proceeded to step out on her on at least two separate occasions. And the third, of course, was when he hooked up with Jordyn Woods , a close friend of the entire Kardashian family. It’s just silly, isn’t it? If he wants to sleep around, that’s fine, but he shouldn’t get into serious relationships and have children if his goal is to get with as many ladies as he possibly can. That’s just being a decent human being — not even decent, really, more like “not the worst.” But that’s Tristan’s thing, and it doesn’t look like he’s changing anytime soon . And judging by Khloe’s latest Instagram posts, she’s still 100% over it. Yep, our girl is once again sharing those relationship quotes that are obviously directed at her situation with Tristan . It’s probably her number one hobby these days. One she shared a few days ago read “Being in love in this generation is terrifying. Loyalty is so rare, and people are so quick to choose a good time over a good thing.” She also posted a “Law of Attraction,” which went like this: Oh, you’re a Narcissist, well I’m going to introduce you to an Empath to humble you so you’ll know what it’s like to value, respect and love someone other than yourself. So you’re an Empath, well I’m going to surround you with narcissists so you can toughen up, realize your ego and learn to value yourself more than you value others. Yesterday, her chosen quote was “You will always find love draining if you date people you have to raise.” It’s easy to imagine that all these are about Tristan, right? And also Khloe’s smart enough to realize that everyone’s going to think that these are about Tristan, so the fact that she posted them anyway is basically confirmation. So judging from all of this, we can gather that she believes Tristan isn’t loyal, which isn’t an opinion so much as it is a fact that he’s proven time and time again. More interestingly, it looks like she thinks he’s a narcissist who doesn’t value, respect, or love anyone other than himself. If anyone would know that, she would, so we’ll just have to trust her opinion. That last quote about love being draining if you have to raise your partner also makes sense, since it’s always kind of been her thing. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian: Tristan Thompson CONFESSED to Banging Jordyn Woods! (And It Was All Caught on Camera?!) If we’re to believe all of these statements have to do with Tristan, then he’s an immature narcissist who isn’t loyal and who needs to learn some humility. Sounds about right.

Nipsey Hussle Fans: Harassing Daughter of Chris Darden!

When the suspected killer of Nipsey Hussle pleaded not guilty to all charges, he didn’t do so alone. By his side was his attorney, Chris Darden, who gained fame and notoriety decades ago as a prosecutor during the O.J. Simpson trial. Now, misguided Nipsey fans are bombarden Darden’s daughter with hate on Instagram, and she is speaking out. “I’ve been receiving vile comments and messages,” Jenee Darden’s heartbreaking post begins. This has been happening “since news broke that my father, Chris Darden, is the defense attorney for the man accused of killing Nipsey Hussle.” “Like many of you,” Jenee writes. “I found out about my father’s involvement in the case while scrolling through social media.” “I was not prepared for this backlash,” she admits. Jenee adds that he vitriol directed at her “has triggered bad memories from the O.J. Simpson trial.” “My father is a grown man,” Jenee points out. “And has been a defense attorney for some time.” In case it was not obvious, she reminds anyone reading her message: “I have no say in the cases he takes on.” Jenee adds that she knows better than most “why it hurts so deeply when we lose talented, young Black men.” She is a black woman herself and a journalist with a real passion for matters of justice. She asks that Nipsey’s fans “channel that energy toward continuing Nipsey’s legacy in strengthening our communities and lifting up each other.” When Nipsey says that her comments have been flooded with hate, she’s not kidding. It took us mere seconds to find examples. “So your dad is representing the killer of Nipsey???” writes on commenter. “Wowwww.” “Your dad is scum,” declares another, who decided to make their opinion her business. “YOUR FATHER IS A COWARD AND A TRAITOR TO HIS OWN PEOPLE!” accuses another. That same hater writes: “ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE! F–KING DISGUSTING!” Each of these particular comments was under an Instagram post about Jenee’s excitement about Avengers: Endgame . In reality, Jenee herself had already posted multiple times mourning Nipsey before she or anyone else knew who Eric Holder’s attorney was. “When our Black men are taken from us, the women left behind have to carry a different weight of grief,” Jenee acknowledged in one post. “I feel bad Lauren London is going through this,” she expressed. Jenee wrote: “As she grieves, she has to be strong for her children. I hope she has support.” In conclusion, she asked: “When we go learn to stop killing each other?” In another post, Jenee drew parallels between Nipsey and another talented artist of color who was taken from the world too soon. “Selena was murdered March 31, 1995,” she wrote. “Nipsey Hussle was murdered March 31 2019.” “They both died over some cruel and pathetic person’s brittle, insecure ego,” Jenee accused. Selena died when a fan who managed Selena’s boutiques was caught embezzling and murdered her. Nipsey was allegedly shot multiple times in the head and chest by an acquaintance, Eric Holder, following a personal dispute. So, first of all, we should point out that people are lashing out at Jenee because she’s within arm’s reach, so to speak. She’s not representing Eric Holder — her father is. She’s an unfair target. Additionally, even if Chris Darden were on Instagram to receive these vicious messages, it’s not really about him being an attorney. People are grieving the loss of Nipsey and they just want to express their anger at a deserving target. With Holder in prison, they’re directing their fury at the easiest target. It’s terrible, and it happens all of the time. Secondly, suggesting that Chris Darden doesn’t care about his fellow black people is both vile and absurd. The racial dynamic of the O.J. Simpson trial may have been the first time in history that a man got away with murder because he was black. Tragically, there have been countless cases of innocent men convicted because they were black, both before and since. Also, Eric Holder is a black man. Chris Darden is representing him. He’s doing his job as a defense attorney. That’s it. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2019: In Memoriam

Lori Loughlin Now Facing 40 YEARS In Prison Following New Charge!

Things were already looking pretty bad for Lori Loughlin in the wake of the college admissions bribery scandal . After having allegedly shelled out $500,000 in bribes to get her daughters into USC, Loughlin was offered some pretty unattractive plea deals from prosecutors, all of which involved jail time. Now, believe it or not, it looks as though things have gotten a whole lot worse for the former Full House star still referred to as Aunt Becky. Last week, Loughlin appeared in a Boston courtroom, and though she was facing prison time after being ensnared in the FBI investigation known as Operation Varsity Blues , witnesses say she appeared to be in good spirits as she posed for photos and signed autographs for fans. Today, Loughlin is probably not in such a great mood, as she and husband Mossimo Giannulli have been indicted on an additional charge that could bring them some serious jail time. Loughlin and Giannulli are among 16 parents facing a new charge for money laundering. The additional indictment was announced Tuesday afternoon by U.S. Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts. “The charge of conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud and honest services mail and wire fraud provides for a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a fine of $250,000 or twice the gross gain or loss, whichever is greater,” reads a press release from the office. “The charge of conspiracy to commit money laundering provides for a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a fine of $500,000 or twice the value of the property involved in the money laundering. “Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.” Well, we may not have graduated from a fancy institute of higher learning like USC, but our math indicates that 20 years plus 20 years equals one hell of a lengthy prison sentence. And of course, the great irony in all of this is that Loughlin’s daughter, Olivia Jade Giannulli, had no interest in going to college and merely wanted to continue  building her career as a Kylie-esque makeup mogul and Instagram influencer. There’s a lesson to be learned in all of this about the weight of parental expectations and the importance of letting your kids be themselves. But the bigger lesson is, don’t bribe college admissions boards to let your kids in because apparently, the federal government takes that sh-t very seriously.

Kourtney & Khloe Kardashian: Single Sisters Team Up For KUWTK Spinoff! Again!

Kourtney & Khloe take __ !!  Hopefully, that blank space will be filled here soon as we just got news that single sisters Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian may be teaming up for their own spinoff show.  Again!  Just like the old days, Kourtney and Khloe are “in talks to have another spinoff, similar to when they had Kourtney & Khloe Take The Hamptons , and their first show together, Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami,” according to Radar Online.  Kim Kardashian’s two sisters starred in the first successful KUWTK spinoff, KKTM, back in 2009.  This guilty pleasure show captivated fans due to their young and carefree personalities.  But now, we’re ready for round 3 and many more Kardashian shenanigans.  “Right now the network is considering a spinoff for them because they are both single, and the two of them have not been single at the same time for a very long time,” says a Kard clan insider.  They’re both single yes, but the two ladies have more on their plate to worry about than their suffering relationship status. As you probably already know, Kourtney just launched her own lifestyle brand Poosh on top of juggling being a mom to her three adorable children.  While Khloe is equally as busy with her successful denim business Good American and her baby daughter True.  Back in the day — the various spinoffs revolved around the young siblings’ social life and family drama, although its main focus was on their family-owned store Dash.  While the half-hour series would keep up with Kourt and Khlo adapting to a different lifestyle in Miami or the Hamptons, they would also be working   hard on  overseeing their Dash boutique .   And while Dash has since closed down due to its overpriced and out-of-date apparel, the moms are keeping busy by running their new and self-owned side hustles.  “They are both super excited about the possibility of doing their own show because it would give them a platform to promote their own businesses,” the source told Radar.  But the informant also told Radar that nothing will be official until the current KUWTK contracts – which were arranged by momager Kris Jenner for $150 million in 2017 – end after the current season.  “They really need to get these contracts inked before they move forward with anything,” the insider dished. “Once they do, shooting for their spinoff could start as early as this summer.” It’s pretty crazy how life can go full circle on ya.  I mean, if you were to tell Kourtney and Khloe back in 2010 that in nine years they would be filming their own show once again — based on how miserably single they both are — well, they would probably be a little displeased.  But that is the harsh  reality and after all, that is what essentially pays this family’s bills!  Unless you’re Kylie Jenner , of course. While some may not find older siblings Kourtney and Khloe entertaining in the slightest, most fans cannot get enough of their sisterly antics.  But for now, we will all have to wait and see if the rumors are true.  Will we be gifted a spinoff show or not?!  If you can’t handle the anticipation, you can watch new episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians that air Sundays on E!

Kris Jenner to Kanye West: Please Make the Kardashians Cool Again!

During Sunday night’s episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians , viewers witnessed something that had never before been seen in the show’s entire 16-season history: We’re talking, of course, about Kanye in the confession booth . Yes, given his love of cameras, attention, and religious imagery, it’s hard to believe Kanye never filmed a confession segment before, but believe it or not, it was Kanye’s first time shooting a confessional segment for the show that helped make his wife a household name. And it seems Yeezy was inspired to take part not by KUWTK’s slumping ratings but for his love of The Incredibles . Seriously: “It starts off with the interviews! The superheroes are giving interviews,” West told the camera. “The wife got a big butt and I just see our life becoming more and more and more like The Incredibles until we can finally fly.” Frankly, it was the first KUWTK segment to make us laugh in years. It was also the first to go viral in quite a long time. So we guess it’s safe to say Kris Jenner made the right call when she let Kanye take charge of the show’s creative direction for Season 16: “Kanye is really in creative control of content for season 16 and that is why viewers saw such a different level of production value in the premiere episode,” a source close to the series tells Radar Online. “Kris has decided to let him take the reins a bit, and she is just praying that his vision boosts ratings,” the insider adds. “He is telling her that things need to change, and she is putting her own vision aside for a minute to let him hop in.” Yes, it couldn’t have been easy for a control freak like Kris to hand over the keys to the project that started it all, but the momager is savvy enough to know that things needed to change if KUWTK was to survive. Of course, West has a little bit of an ego on him, so it should come as no surprise that he’s using his new power to build his own brand, as well: “He is using the show as a platform for his projects,” says the source. But apparently, the Kards are cool with it, so long as Yeezy helps save the show that has long served as the foundation of their media empire: “Khloe and Kourtney think Kanye is a genius, and if he can help them boost ratings for the show, then they are all about it,” the informant claims. “They are all on edge right now and are really hoping that Kanye’s vision for the show leads to a spike in ratings for the premiere, as well as the season.” Love him or hate him, Kanye might be the only person on the planet who understands self-promotion better than Kris Jenner.

Jana Duggar and Laura DeMasie: Things Get Awkward in Counting On Clip

Back in November of last year, John David Duggar married Abbie Burnett . But in this Counting On clip, they're still preparing for the big day. Jana Duggar is relegated to helping everyone, and that includes helping prepare for her little brother's wedding. In the process, while out and about with BFF Laura DeMasie, she finds something so embarrassing that she “tried to block” it out. TLC has posted a number of behind-the-scenes looks at the Duggar family on Counting On . In this one, Jana is busy acting as a wedding planner for John David Duggar and Abbie Burnett. That's right — Jana isn't just a full-time childcare worker, a housekeeper, and a gardener. She also helps to plan her siblings' weddings while fans wonder when she will have her own. Even though Jim Bob is a millionaire, John David's wedding had a tight budget. So Jana went to a thrift store to look for decorations. There's a lot of good stuff in this clip, but let's skip right to the humiliation. (Sorry, Jana!) Laura and Jana find a massive collection of books, but one set of books in particular catches their eyes. It's a bunch of Duggar books. Books put out by the family over the years are collected on a set of shelves. Jana's feeling of awkwardness is palpable. Meanwhile, Laura is laughing her head off. The books include Growing Up Duggar and The Duggars: 20 And Counting . As you can imagine, Jana is both visible and recognizable on the various books, which Laura cannot help but point out. (If your best friend doesn't know how to roast you over harmless stuff, are they really your best friend?) Jana then makes the mistake of looking to see how much the books cost. From their dialogue, and it's unclear if they're joking, it sounds like the books are about 90% off. Laura then suggests that Jana should autograph one of the books as a special surprise for someone who might buy one. Instead, Jana covers up the faces of some of the books, using other books. It's not clear if she hopes to avoid being recognized by others in the store — since, you know, she has a whole dang camera crew with her. Even afterwards, Laura is cackling over the experience, much to Jana's embarrassment. When it is brought up in front of the camera, Jana states that she “tried to block” that memory from her mind. Elsewhere in the clip, Jana explains that she tends to look at items, then look at the price. Her own siblings admit that she sometimes “stretches” the budget. Laura is there to keep her in check by reminding her that she can only buy so much for this wedding. Then the producers troll her by having different pairs of Duggars speak about which among them are more impulsive purchasers. Jessa and Kendra, like Jana, tend to want to take advantage of a good sale when they see it. Because Jana and Laure insist that they're just friends , not lovers, the producers also bring out a non-couple: twin brothers Jeremiah and Jedidiah. Of the two, Jeremiah usually counsels Jedidiah to not impulsively purchase things … but that may just be a trick, as Jeremiah may buy the item himself.
