Love is definitely in the air for the Duggar family from "Counting On" since another Duggar daughter has gone into courtship after Jinger tied the knot recently with soccer player Jeremy Vuolo.
Joy-Anna, 19, revealed on the Duggar Family Blog that she is now enjoying a courtship with her friend of 15 years, Austin.
"Hey y'all! I'm Joy Duggar and this is Austin," Joy-Anna said in the video message.
"I just asked her to enter a courtship with me," Austin said.
"And I said yes!" Joy-Anna added. "We've known each other for a long time."
Austin further shared, "Almost 15 years. I picked this spot because last time we were here together was August 1, 2015."
Joy-Anna and Austin's relationship experienced a slow build. Still, Joy-Anna admitted she was "surprised" when Austin asked her about courtship. "I hadn't been here in so long. I was not expecting this. So happy," she gushed.
"There was a whole group of us that came up," Joy-Anna continued. "And we were just hanging out and it was really late at night, stars were just gorgeous. For me that's really special, but then just being with him. And then now it's even more special because it's where we start our courtship."
Austin also revealed that he chose that special spot because it's where he connects best to God, and he wanted to share that as well with Joy-Anna.
"It's a place that I've come many times to just get away and spend time with the Lord," Austin explained. "I just knew that this was the place that I wanted to ask her."
Joy-Anna is the fifth Duggar daughter, and the fourth one to enter a courtship stage.
However, her elder sister Jana has remained decidedly single despite having a number of guys trying to woo her.
