Admin edit note: TW was added 4/30/21 with the news of the arrest of the oldest Duggar for possession of sexually abusive images of children.
They're controversial, and I hate to admit it, but sometimes I stalk their Instas. And today, I saw that Jill recently posted a pic of herself sporting a NOSE RING! I did some digging, and she was also apparently recently spotted out wearing "tight" jeans (hard to tell from the photo because she's also wearing a coat that covers to her mid-thigh).
I know Jinger has been making headlines, so to speak, with her fashion choices. But is Jill now being a bit rebellious? She seems to have neither confirmed nor denied that the nose ring is real. Just curious what others might think.
I think it's wonderful that some of the girls are branching out a bit. I can't stand Jill's husband and his anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric. But I do like to see the girls in the family, in particular, pushing the boundaries a bit.
Apologies if this is hidden somewhere else like blinds.

I believe the speculation that she is doing this to get positive press. Her husband is horrible and has been bringing a lot of negative press, so much so that TLC is done with him. Jill needs to stay likeable for TLC to still care about including her in the show ($). IMO she saw the positive attention Jinger got for wearing pants and is trying to get some of that positive attention herself.

Her husband is shit, so it makes sense she’d make a desperate grab to keep the money flowing.

I dumped the nose ring in the blinds like everything else. I haven't heard of Jill wearing jeans. But yeah, her husband has gone off the deep end. He seemed semi normal when they got married and now he is like Trump Jr. Woof.

Would not surprise me in the least if she's gunning for positive press since her husband was axed by TLC for his transphobic assholery. "look, Jill's wearing jeans and has a nose ring, her husband is letting her express herself!" I hate how we throw those people a bone every time they do something that resembles what normal people do.

I think she is still gulping the fundie punch pretty hard and this is a poor attempt at distracting from her husband's shenanigans.

I hate how we throw those people a bone every time they do something that resembles what normal people do. Oh I agree! I don't mean to come off as though I'm throwing them a bone. I think they're both probably gunning for good press, so husband said, "Yeah, okay, wear jeans and get a fake nose ring. That'll get people thinking I'm not so bad!" But in actuality, he is a terrible person. For me, though, the women in this family don't get a say at all, so even these little "rebellious" things make me a tiny bit happy for them. It doesn't make me like their family or beliefs any more.

Derrick really did go off the deep end. He's gross. Do you think the nose ring is religious? Is that a thing? I know they sometimes pick and choose things from other religions to make their own. Do you think Jill is happy about the jeans? She seemed like the big time rule follower.

Idk any US conservative Christianity sect that is ok with nose rings so I doubt she did it because the Bible told her. I can believe the positive press approach. Although she had two csection and will surely not have as many kids as her mom so she may be blowing off the good girl bit. Marriage is diluting the family's beliefs so it's not surprising cracks form. Waiting on the tell all. Hopefully from Jana.

I totally believe that she's hoping for positive press. I also think these girls are realizing their husbands are not their father. Most of these guys grew up in normal homes, some went to college. I am doubtful that Derick is at all scandalized by pants or piercings. She probably brought it up to him all nervous and he was like, dude, wear some pants. I don't care. He is a total nut job but he did grow up normal. Like Jeremy, I don't think his wife wearing pants is going to ping their radar.

I agree. If you look at the family picture where she is wearing the jeans, every woman there is in pants. So she may have just realized “hey, this isn’t scandalous. I love these women, and they wear pants. Maybe pants aren’t immodest.”

I was just screwing around on Us Magazine's website and ... www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/news/joseph-and-kendra-duggar-expecting-their-first-child/No, I'm not that shocked, but Jesus they didn't start dating until March. Dating to engaged to married to pregnant all in 9 months. And you're all of 22 and 19. Also it makes me super nervous that they always announce these pregnancies so early. Somebody is going to miscarry soon enough (just from a statistical standpoint) and that will be even more devastating after announcing it to all these magazines.

So I read a blind item somewhere (I don't think it was here?) that their friend that got murdered in Central America was actually Derrick's "special friend." If Jill is branching out since that happened, I wonder if her facade of what she thought was a perfect life has faded. Around the time they returned to the US, she posted stuff on IG about not understanding why things happen, but having faith. People assumed it was about the childbirth not going the way she wanted a second time, but maybe it was something darker?
I've been watching too many lifetime movies, haven't I?

I read through all the boring Duggar talk in the other thread, I almost missed this! And the details in that blind don't surprise me at all. Those poor girls being forced into marriage with crazies.
