The Duggar family is always in the news. Despite their show getting canceled, the interest in their family affairs has not dwindled and now Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar have announced that they are expecting their seventh grandchild.
According to reports, the announcement was made by the couple through Michelle's blog on their family website. The post said that they are very happy for their wonderful 32 years of marriage, 19 children, daughters and sons-in-law and going on 7 grandkids. The mention of 7 grandkids indicates the Duggar family is expecting a grandchild.
This is pretty remarkable as it comes in the wake of the pregnancy rumors that have been doing the rounds. Speculations are rife that daughters Jill and the unmarried Jinger are expecting along with daughter-in-law Anna. But, it is daughter Jessa's pregnancy that has already been confirmed and the blog post talks about her kid only.
However, it does not deny the arrival of other grandchildren. It looks like that the children of the couple hid their pregnancies from the family head and the matriarch. Notably, some media reports about Jill and Jessa wanting to get pregnant at the same time were circulating some time back and this is why the rumors have gained steam.
In the meantime, Michelle and Jim are reported to be facing troubles and looking to separate, claims Morning Ledger. According to the news outlet, disagreements have surfaced between the two because of their son Josh Duggar, who has been in the eye of a storm for molesting 5 girls, including his 4 sisters in the past.
Jim wants to reconcile with Josh and keep him in the family but Michelle is not willing to put up with a son who brought down the reputation of the family. She just cannot accept the idea of taking him back into the family. It is also rumored that either Jim or Michelle will eventually move out of their Arkansas home.
It is worth mentioning here that Josh admitted to being a porn addict and was also found to be a member of Ashley Madison. Later, he checked into a rehab for treatment and is currently reported to be seeking the services of a marriage counselor to make his marriage work.
