Duggar Family News: Jessa and Jill Aren't Done With 'Counting On' Show Yet Despite Rumours

The Duggar family from "19 Kids and Counting" can't seem to escape negative reports especially after eldest son Josh Duggar got involved in two different scandals last year. Now, the rumour that is hounding the family is that the Duggar kids are planning to leave their new TLC show "Counting On" and pursue other things.

An insider told Life & Style Magazine that "Counting On" is doomed because of Josh, adding that the Duggar siblings had better find something else to occupy their time with. "The show doesn't even have to feature him. The Duggar name is damaged," the insider said. "They are absolutely doomed" even after building "their empire on truth, faith and family."

Even the Morning Ledger predicted that the show will fold soon because of low ratings, while Celebrity Dirty Laundry reported that the family members are constantly fighting among themselves since their parents Jim Bob and Michelle won't stop exploiting them.

Meanwhile, Jinger, who is going to marry soccer player Jeremy Vuolo soon, has plans to move from Arkansas to Laredo, Texas since her soon-to-be husband is serving ministry there.

"I absolutely love Laredo," Jinger says, according to Us Weekly. "I've heard so much about it — I am so in love with the place."

Jinger's older sister Jill Dillard has already relocated to Central America to start her own family ministry with husband Derick Dillard. Jessa Seewald is expecting another baby next year, while Jana has reportedly appeared less in this season's "Counting On."

But the Duggar Family Blog, which is maintained by close family friends of the Duggars, dispelled all of these rumours and confirmed that the family will not abandon their new show.

"As we approach the eighth episode of 'Counting On', season two, the tabloids are circulating a rumour that the Duggar siblings are quitting reality TV. Is it true? Not in the slightest," the blog says. "Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's [children] have no plans to leave TLC."
