Is another Duggar family member in a courtship with another reality TV star? Reports claim that Jinger Duggar is dating "Bringing Up Bates" star Lawson Bates after they were photographed next to each other at Amy Duggar's wedding.
It is also rumored that the two went on a date after an event last month where the Duggars dressed up as pirates. Now, a new report claims that the two were spotted together at a Tennessee football game over the weekend.
According to the Duggar family's official Facebook account, the 21-year -old joined her sister Joy-Anna and brother John David to watch an Arkansas Razorbacks and Tennessee Volunteers game in Knoxville on Saturday, Oct. 3. In the post, it was revealed that the three spent time with the Bates, attended the game, and even got to visit their older brother Joseph, who attends Crown College.
Though it was mentioned that the Duggar spent time with the Bates, it was not specified who among the Bates was present at the game. But according to Radar Online, Lawson was also at the game as he posted on Twitter on the same date, "Just ran into my friend @PrayersforAJ here at the game! Let's #GoVols #BeatAR."
The website reports that Bates originally posted a clip of Jinger sitting next to him on the stands, but he appears to have taken the video down.
Radar Online adds that the Duggars flew from their hometown in Arkansas to Tennessee on Saturday morning prior to the game and that they didn't leave until late Sunday evening.
Though both families have yet to confirm that the two are dating, many fans think that Jinger and Lawson will make a good pair because of the things they have in common. Both belong to large families, as the Bates family has 19 children—the same as the Duggars. Both families are also devout Christians.
