Jill Duggar, Derick Dillard News 2015: Has The Couple Given Up On Being Television Celebrities? [VIDEO]
Now that TLC has pulled the plug on the hit reality television show, 19 Kids & Counting, it looks like some members of the Duggar family are putting the celebrity spotlight behind them. There's new speculation that Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard are no longer wanting to live a life in the public eye as they have quit updating their social media accounts ever since they move to an undisclosed location in Central America last month.
According to both Jill and Derick's Instagram accounts, they haven't shared any new photos of their son Israel David, nor have they updated their fans on their new lives as missionaries in Central America. They also haven't updated their official web site, DuggarFamily.com in several weeks as well.
Jill and Derick have though been asking their fans for financial donations now that they are no longer receiving television paychecks, which they have received quite a lot of criticism for.
In a blog post in which the Dillards wrote before leaving for Central America, the couple writes, "Thank you to God and all our prayer and financial partners. We cannot express enough gratitude for the ways God has been working through so many of you to make this transition for our family as smooth as possible. God has used you all to bless us and to make our vision a reality for those who have yet to put their faith in Jesus Christ, who is our only hope for salvation."
Following the post, there's a link that says, "If you would like to financially support our family ministry, you can do so here."
