’19 Kids & Counting’ News 2015: Is Jill Duggar Moving Out Of The Country Because Of Her Brother Josh? [VIDEO]
While some people like to take a break from their families by just keeping to themselves for awhile, it looks as though Jill Duggar is taking the extreme route. There's a new report that the reason why the reality star and her husband Derick Dillard are moving out of the country is because they want nothing to do with her brother Josh Duggar and his sexual molestation scandal.
According to Star Magazine on Tuesday, sources say that the couple is well aware of the fact that TLC won't be airing 19 Kids & Counting anymore, leaving their television careers in limbo. The couple was rumored to be filming their own spinoff show but because Josh's sexual abuse case from nearly two decades ago rocked the entire entertainment world, they are having to go with a Plan B.
While neither Jill nor Derick have disclosed exactly where they are going, there's a good chance that they might be headed to Nepal, where Derick once worked as a missionary. They will be traveling with their 2-month-old son, David Israel.
Derick recently wrote on the couple's blog, "After much prayer and seeking Godly counsel, we realized that taking this opportunity and moving overseas in order to serve is the best option for our family. Earlier this year we shared our plans with our families and in May, I shared this decision with my manager at Wal-Mart."
He added, "A friend of ours wisely shared that if God was leading us to serve Him abroad, we should pursue it as early as possible, to avoid a more difficult move later, when our roots are deep and we're more comfortable in life."
