Looks like Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar would soon have to prepare for another wedding as their younger daughter Joy-Anna has declared that she has entered into a courtship, after Jinger Duggar's wedding to Jeremy Vuolo.
The fifth daughter of the Duggars announced her boyfriend on the TLC show 'Counting On' through a video message, reports International Business Times. She introduced Austin to the audience and the latter was then seen saying that he just asked her to enter a courtship with him. He also revealed that they have known each other for about 15 years.
The video shows the 19-year-old Joy-Anna and Austin standing before a beautiful background of fall trees and mountains. Later, the couple is seen explaining why they chose the spot to declare their feelings. Joy says that they had come along with a group at the place and spent some beautiful moments over there.
Austin adds that the place is significant because they share the same religious values and he has visited it many times to get close to the Lord. He reveals that he kind of knew that this was the place where he wanted to ask her.
Ever since Joy-Anna made the declaration, speculations have started about another wedding in the Duggar household which would be quite interesting as Jinger recently tied the knot with Jeremy. Their wedding took place in the first week of November in a lavish ceremony and many feel that Joy's announcement is an attempt to keep the TLC show afloat.
After Jinger's wedding, there was clearly a lack of interesting stuff to be televised and thus, this announcement seems like a strategy to keep the show going. Also, after the Josh Duggar molestation and cheating scandal, the image of Duggars has suffered a massive dent in the media.
Though TLC has not canceled their program, advertisers have pulled away their sponsorship and therefore, it seems the Duggars are trying all the tricks so that the show's content continues to retain its entertainment quotient. It may be recalled here that Jinger's wedding and the pregnancy of Jessa have also come under suspicion for being a ploy to carry on the reality show.
