The Duggars have made headlines once again with a rumor circulating that Jill Duggar and husband Derick Dillard are misusing the funds donated by supporters of their mission.

Some fans are now demanding for explanation as to what has been done to the money donated to support the family's Central America mission.

A report from In Touch Weekly stated that Dillard posted on the family blog revealing that the donations to Dillard Family Ministries have been used to pay for their trip to attend cousin Amy Duggar's wedding with their five-month-old Israel tagging along.

Furthermore, the report stated that part of the donations was also spent on their one-month stay in Arkansas to be with friends and family.

Adding to this is the fact that they posted a picture with Israel captioned "Travelling," Realty Today reported.

Since the couple are expected to be on a mission, they shouldn't have been spotted attending their cousin's wedding one week ago in Arkansas and Michaela Bates and Brandon Keilen's (from "Bringing Up Bates") wedding last Aug. 15 in Tennessee.

The couple might not be experiencing a flow of cash ever since "19 Kids and Counting" got cancelled, noted Design & Trend. In addition, the "Duggar Family: Life is Not All Pickles and Hairspray" Facebook page also mentioned that the Dillard's home church is not offering support to their mission the first couple of years they went abroad.

This resulted to them turning to fans for cash donations and now, people demand for the truth.

There are several questions about the funds — on how and where it had been used. Fans have also demanded for pictures taken from their mission work as proof that the money had been used the right way.

The couple has not given their side of the story yet.
