Jill Dillard is the fourth youngster and second daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar. She was thrust into the highlight when her household started showing on TLC’s actuality present “19 Children and Counting,” and the spin-off present “Counting On.”
Since exiting the present in 2017, Jill has continued to maintain her followers up to date on her life by way of the Dillard Household Weblog she writes together with her husband, Derick Dillard, in addition to her YouTube channel.
As early as 2020, followers started to take a position that Dillard was distancing herself from her household since a number of the selections she made deviated from the Duggar’s beliefs. This has been confirmed true with the announcement of her new e-book popping out in 2024.
The e-book is titled “Counting The Value” and is a memoir Dillard co-wrote together with her husband. The Dillards revealed that it is going to be a tell-all memoir “revealing the secrets and techniques, manipulation, and intimidation” behind each the TLC actuality reveals and the Duggar household itself.
Jill and Derick Dillard ;tried to be “obedient members of the family” by refusing to “rock the boat,” however now that they’re elevating a household of their very own, they refuse to maintain secrets and techniques any longer.
The couple shared on their Instagram that they want to inform their story with all of its fact as a result of the challenges they’ve confronted “together with an absence of respect for boundaries, greed, manipulation, and betrayal, will not be a lot totally different than what many individuals in our viewers have confronted.”
One of many Duggar household secrets and techniques is the wedding recommendation Jim Bob and Michelle give to their kids for his or her marriage ceremony evening and honeymoon.
Within the particular “A Very Duggar Marriage ceremony,” which could be very tough to search out because it particulars the marriage of Josh Duggar and his spouse Anna Keller, there was a scene the place Jim Bob and Michelle gave the couple recommendation relating to their marriage ceremony evening. The recommendation appeared harmless sufficient, however in accordance with a video posted by Katie Pleasure on her YouTube channel “With out A Crystal Ball,” the recommendation seen on TV was not the one recommendation given to the couple.
An unnamed supply, allegedly linked to the Duggars, introduced Pleasure with a listing of the true marriage recommendation supposedly given to every Duggar youngster on the eve of their marriage ceremony. Based mostly on the checklist, Michelle apparently makes the bride a bridal package deal and is to clarify its contents. It is reported on the Duggar Household web site that Michelle made a bridal package deal for Dillard when she received married.
Allegedly, the bridal package deal contained panty liners and pads for wetness, underwear, Bonine for movement illness, 3 outfits, a variety of pajamas, a modest swimsuit, fragrance, an enema, breath spray, child wipes to scrub up after defecating, snacks, and stool softener.
Jim Bob’s ‘recommendation’ for his newlywed kids is a little more graphic and disturbing.
The second portion of the checklist contained Jim Bob’s alleged recommendation for the brand new couple. (A set off warning is warranted right here.)
Half one of many recommendation is to verify the husband is aware of the significance of each companions being pleasured throughout intercourse. In keeping with the supply, he gave every couple a duplicate of the e-book “Supposed For Pleasure” with highlighted and “dog-eared” passages. The passages embody the roles of the spouse and the roles of the husband.
The spouse is to “prepare for her husband” by choosing out lingerie together with her mother and stocking up on ibuprofen and lidocaine for ache reduction. Jim Bob goes into graphic element about methods to “stretch the hymen” with lidocaine for 30-45 minutes or as much as a number of hours so intercourse is not going to harm their new spouse.
Every spouse can be supposed to permit her husband to assist them out of their marriage ceremony costume for his “first look.” Jim Bob’s final piece of supposed recommendation is for the couple to have intercourse 3-4 instances every day.
Pleasure went into element in regards to the intense clean-up course of that was disclosed on the checklist.
The newlyweds are supposed to assist eliminate all proof that the intercourse occurred by treating the sheets with peroxide, utilizing their very own towels for showering afterward or cleansing any mess, and utilizing Bounty towels to scrub any bodily fluids since they’re disposable.
If this checklist is actual, it seems that there aren’t any boundaries within the Duggar household.
It is horrifying that the Duggars are telling their daughters that it is okay for his or her husbands to do these items to them, and for his or her sons to carry out sure actions with their wives.
Whereas we anxiously await Jill and Derick Dillard’s memoir launch subsequent yr, given the data revealed within the newest documentary of the Duggars, “Shiny Comfortable Individuals,” it does not come as a shock that there are various layers to the inside workings of this household.
