Jinger Duggar and Jeremy Vuolo Reveal Baby No. 3 Is a Boy: First Son on the Way!

Jinger Duggar gets to count on having her first boy.

Previously from the show “19 Kids and Counting“, now expecting baby number 3, this lady shared a YouTube video with her husband Jeremy Vuolo. Together they revealed the gender of their upcoming child.

In the video from January 13th, upon unwrapping a set of tiny suspenders, the pair excitedly exclaimed, “It’s a baby boy!

Moreover, it appears that they’ve got two girls, Felicity who is 6 years old, and Evangeline, aged 4. However, Jeremy seems eager for a new addition to their family dynamic.

“You got a boy! Are you excited?” Jinger asked, to which he replied, “I’m speechless.”

“I love it—a speechless Jeremy. That’s rare,” Jinger quipped. “Crazy!”

Jeremy added, “It’s just hitting me.” 

In 2016, the newlywed pair decided to keep their nuptials a secret from their eldest daughter initially. However, they eventually shared this exciting news with their extended family during the holiday season, but only after informing their eldest child about it first.

In a gathering by the Christmas tree, as shown on YouTube, Jinger informed her brothers that they would be the first to know something because she didn’t want her to learn it with everyone else. Later, when they took Felicity into the laundry room, Jeremy and Jinger shared with her that she was soon going to have a new brother.

Felicity, whose identity was concealed, started cheering and bouncing around excitedly before going back into the living room to share the good news.

“BOY!” she shouted to applause from the Duggar family.

And both Felicity and Evangeline are ready to get promoted to big sis. 

Jinger posted on Instagram that Felicity and Evy Jo were overjoyed beyond belief as she announced her pregnancy in October. She expressed her gratitude for the upcoming life of their tiny baby.

Apart from expanding their family, the Vuolos are additionally rejoicing over another significant achievement this week – the publication of Jinger’s book titled “People Pleaser.” Jeremy finds this a remarkable feat as he thinks it will shine a light on Jinger’s motivating journey.

On Instagram, January 14th, he wrote: “She’s an incredibly powerful woman whom I look up to in numerous aspects. Jinger, thank you for bravely sharing your experiences to inspire and motivate others during their tough times. I adore you!

You can count on learning more about the Duggars with this family tree:

Originally a pair of high school sweethearts, these parents of 19 and grandparents to more than three dozen children first met each other.

Michelle mentioned she had a memorable experience at age 15, which she often refers to as being “rescued.” On a particular evening, Jim Bob was out conducting home visits on behalf of his Baptist church. A friend of his hinted that a schoolgirl who had recently experienced a spiritual transformation and was also a cheerleader resided at the Ruark household, so he decided to pay them a visit.

They asked Michelle to attend Sunday school at their church, and Jim Bob mentioned that he had prayed to God for them to serve as each other’s spiritual guides – although it seems Michelle didn’t find their initial encounter particularly noteworthy. A year later, Michelle applied for a job at the frozen yogurt store owned by Jim Bob’s parents. In a blog post from 2017 on their family blog for Jim Bob’s birthday and their 33rd wedding anniversary, Michelle recalled the moment she met him: “You stood behind the counter where I was working when we first met. You were timid but charming! I don’t remember much about that chat, except that you eventually asked me if I would accompany you to your junior-senior dance!

At Shiloh Christian, he and I shared a dinner together, but it wasn’t until we spent hours discussing the Scriptures at my family’s home afterward that I felt our connection deepen. As Michelle puts it, “From then on, our hearts were intertwined.” We both graduated high school in May of 1984 and tied the knot in July; I was seventeen, while he was nineteen.

The couple dedicated themselves to God and each other for the long run.

Jim Bob previously held the position of a state legislator, serving in the Arkansas House of Representatives for the sixth district from 1999 to 2002. During his tenure, he was the vice chair of the Corrections and Criminal Law Subcommittee. He attempted to run for the U.S. Senate in 2002 but was unsuccessful in the primary. In 2006, he also failed to secure the Republican nomination for Arkansas State Senate District 35.

They, along with Michelle, who are duly licensed realtors, have been actively involved in conservative movements – a part of their lifestyle that has earned them both admirers (supporters) and detractors (critics). This pair is also known for their support and criticism towards the reality TV show “19 Kids and Counting,” which debuted in 2008 as “17 Kids and Counting.

As of October 2024, they were grandparents of 33 with three on the way.

The eldest child in the Duggar family, Josh Duggar, was born on March 3, 1988. Similarly, he took up a role as a conservative activist, advocating for the Family Research Council.

In 2015, police records from the past emerged, implicating him in allegations of molestation against multiple girls, including his sisters Jessa Duggar and Jill Duggar. When he was a teenager. Jessa stood up for her brother during an interview with Fox News that June, asserting that the harsh accusations leveled against Josh were “exaggerated and untrue, essentially.” People criticize me for saying this, but as one of the victims, I have the right to express my opinion.

His wife, Anna Duggar, who tied the knot with him during their September 26, 2008 wedding broadcasted on “19 Kids and Counting,” remained loyal to him even in the face of his confession about infidelity.

In 2016, when he admitted himself to a rehabilitation facility, his parents regarded it as the “initial vital move towards recovery and healing”.

The parents of Mackynzie (born October 8, 2009), Michael (June 15, 2011), and Marcus (June 2, 2013) were already a family when a scandal occurred. During that time, Anna gave birth to their fourth child, Meredith, on July 16, 2015, the same day TLC decided to end 19 Kids. Their fifth child, Mason Garett, was born on September 12, 2017. Maryella Hope joined the family on November 27, 2019 and their seventh child, Madyson Lily, arrived on October 23, 2021.

Back in April 2021, a federal indictment accused Josh of two separate crimes: receiving and possessing child pornography. He denied any wrongdoing for both charges. In the year 2022, he was found guilty of both offenses, although the possession charge was later dismissed by the judge. As a result, he was given a prison sentence of 12 and a half years.

Not long after Josh’s birth, Michelle experienced another pregnancy followed by a miscarriage. During this time of sorrow and seeking wisdom, they discovered they were expecting twins instead.

She expressed to Love to Know that it was a “twofold gift” she felt they had received. God, she believed, was providing them comfort for their hearts. They were still growing and learning, she added, noting that this event was quite extraordinary since she breastfed her babies, but her children were born very close together. In an unexpected twist, eight months after having one baby, she was expecting another. This, she concluded, was just another remarkable way God had chosen to shape their unique circumstances.

John David Duggar and his twin sister Jana Duggar were born on Jan. 12, 1990.

Following a prolonged acquaintanceship (they had been familiar with each other for several years prior to meeting at a church gathering in Abbie’s home state of Oklahoma), and after a brief period of betrothal, John David and Abbie-Grace Burnett tied the knot on November 3, 2018.

On January 7, 2020, they happily ushered a new member into their family, whom they named Grace Annette Duggar. In September 2022, another addition joined the family – a baby boy, affectionately known as Charlie Duggar.

On their 30th birthday in January 2020, Jana wrote a heartfelt message to John: “From when we were small children, people often asked if John and I shared some kind of special bond. They meant the connection where you sense what the other person is feeling or guess what they’re thinking… Well, John, I used to say no to that question, but now I can truthfully tell you that when our little girl Gracie was born, I experienced every ounce of joy that you did, so perhaps this bond does exist!

Jana added, “It’s truly delightful observing you and Abbie in your parental roles! You two seem to be born for it! The very traits that make you an exceptional sibling will undoubtedly make you a fantastic father.

Jana looked on as 11 out of her 18 siblings tied the knot before she met Stephen Wissmann, whose sister Hannah Wissmann is now married to her own brother Jeremiah. Although there were times when she felt exasperated, she believed it was all part of a divine scheme.

In August 2024, just before her wedding, Jana shared with People that she hasn’t always grasped the overall scheme of things, but she trusts that God knows what is best for everyone. For her, delaying marriage was the choice. She expressed, “If every story were identical, life would be monotonous.

Born on May 17, 1991, Jill Duggar Dillard’s love story bears a resemblance to her parents’. It was during Christmas in 2011 that she encountered Derick, who lived approximately 45 minutes away from the Duggar residence. This chance meeting occurred when he dropped by while caroling with his church group.

Jim Bob acted as a cupid, facilitating a connection between Jill and Derick. Through frequent email and Skype conversations, they grew fond of each other. In November, Jim Bob and his daughter traveled to Nepal to meet Derick, and their bond deepened even more. By February 2014, Derick requested Jim Bob’s blessing for his daughter’s hand in marriage, which was granted. On June 21, 2014, they exchanged vows and are now proud parents to three sons: Israel (born April 6, 2015), Samuel (born July 8, 2017), and Frederick (born July 7, 2022).

In April 2024, Jill revealed that they had experienced a miscarriage with their first daughter on the way, along with her partner, Derick.

In the Amazon Prime Video documentary titled “Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets,” which was released in June 2023, Jill and Derick pondered over the debated issues and religious convictions related to her family that were highlighted in the series.

Jim Bob and Michelle’s fifth child, Jessa Duggar, was born Nov. 4, 1992.

Jessa got to know Ben via church in 2013, and he started wooing her using traditional courtship methods – something quite novel for many viewers accustomed to modern dating norms. Prior to their engagement, the couple didn’t discuss their relationships openly. To clarify this practice to People magazine, Jim Bob explained that courting involves getting to know each other in a group setting, with both families spending time together and the couple establishing shared goals to decide if they are meant for marriage. In contrast to dating, where couples often spend private time together, which can sometimes lead to a more physical relationship, courting encourages a more chaste approach.

In August 2014, Ben asked for Jessa’s hand in marriage and proposed. They sealed their union by holding hands for the first time. Their wedding took place on November 1, 2014. While they were expecting their first child, the show 19 Kids and Counting was canceled. TLC aired a special about sexual abuse, with Jill and Jessa as main contributors, to educate viewers further on the topic. That winter, Jessa and Jill became the stars of their own show, Jill and Jessa: Counting On. Eventually, this series evolved into Counting On, featuring other Duggar siblings as well.

During November 5, 2015, Jessa and Ben became parents to Spurgeon; then Henry joined them on February 6, 2017, followed by Ivy Jane on May 28, 2019, and Fern in July 2021. In the holiday season of 2022, Jessa shared that she experienced a miscarriage. However, she delivered her fifth child, George, in December 2023.

The sixth Duggar child, Jinger Vuolo, was born Dec. 21, 1993.

Jinger and Jeremy first met while working on ministry projects in Laredo, Texas, and began dating in 2016. They tied the knot on November 5, 2016, which happened to be Spurgeon’s birthday (Jinger’s nephew), a date that stood out among the many family milestones when you have as many as 19 family members! Shortly after their wedding, speculation about a possible pregnancy started circulating.

In a year, we expect to have established ourselves, continuing our ministry right here in Laredo. Our goal is simply to serve the Lord in whatever capacity we can. This was shared by Jinger in a June 2017 episode of Counting On.

On July 19, 2018, their child, named Felicity, was born. It was in May of that same year that they announced Jinger was pregnant once more—unfortunately, she had experienced a miscarriage the previous fall. Then, in November 2020, they were blessed with another daughter, whom they named Evangeline Jo.

Jinger and Jeremy shared in October 2024 that their third child is due in March 2025.

Born on January 20, 1995 is Joseph Duggar. He seized an opportune moment, proposing to Kendra, whom he had come to know through church, during his sister Joy-Anna’s wedding in May 2017, having only courted for a short while beforehand.

As I prepared to ask the big question, I couldn’t help but feel a flutter of apprehension. However, I wasn’t concerned about her refusal, for she had already expressed, “I’m simply waiting on you!” as we chatted earlier. In an interview with People magazine, Joseph shared this sentiment post-proposal. Kendra, radiant with joy and surprise, responded, “I am overwhelmed with happiness and astonishment. There are countless words I wish to express, but all I can say is shocked.

Since then, they’ve revealed the births of their son Garrett (born in June 2018), their daughter Addison (born in November 2019), and most recently, their daughter Brooklyn (born in February 2021).

Eighth in line, Josiah Duggar was born on Aug. 28, 1996.

A few months following the public reveal of their courtship, the pair announced their engagement in March 2018. In a statement, he shared that the location where he proposed to Lauren was the very same spot where her parents had been engaged. He mentioned that this property holds a lot of family history, making it a particularly meaningful place for Lauren.

In a video shared on their family blog, Michelle, who is soon to be Lauren’s mother-in-law, expressed her affection by saying, “Lauren is a treasure we hold dear.” Jessa and Ben also extended their congratulations along with treats shaped like X’s and O’s. As if hinting at a sweet surprise, she held up what seemed to be a consolation prize for the couple, suggesting they might want to save their first kiss for their wedding day but implying that they could receive it here instead.

In the summer of 2015, a relationship with Marjorie Jackson didn’t last and they parted ways. Reflecting to People in March 2016, Josiah said, “We had some good times together. We were both trying to discern God’s guidance in our actions. She felt it wasn’t the right moment for us, so we took a break for a while.

On June 30, 2018, they officially got married, and they told People that their wedding day was “flawlessly perfect.” Their first child, Bella Milagro, was born on November 8, 2019. The name means “miracle baby,” as the couple had previously experienced a miscarriage in October 2018. They then welcomed another daughter named Daisy in 2022 and a son named Ezra in May 2023.

Ninth sibling Joy-Anna Duggar was born Oct. 28, 1997.

She had been friends with Austin Forsyth for a span of fifteen years before he began pursuing her. Following this development, there was no delay in their actions. He popped the question in February 2017 and they tied the knot on May 26, 2017, at Cross Church in Rogers, Arkansas – the same venue where Joseph proposed to Kendra.

On February 23, 2018, Joy-Anna and Austin were thrilled to bring their firstborn, Gideon Martin Forsyth, into the world. Exactly two years later, on August 21, 2020, they expanded their family with the arrival of their daughter, Evelyn Mae Forsyth. Most recently, on May 17, 2023, they welcomed another son, Gunner James Forsyth, into their loving family.

On the 30th of December, 1998, Jim Bob and Michelle welcomed their second pair of twins, named Jed Duggar and Jeremiah Duggar, into their family.

In the spring of 2021, Jed tied the knot with Katey Nakatsu following a year of romance. Together, they welcomed their firstborn son, Truett, in May 2022, and their daughter, Nora Kate, joined the family in June 2023.

In July of 2024, Jed and Katey shared the joyous news that they were expecting twin girls. On January 8, 2025, their beautiful daughters, named Elsie Kate and Emma Kate, were born.

Jeremiah, who holds a flight instructor certification, is married to Hannah Wissmann, Stephen’s sister. Together they have two children – Brynley, born in December 2022, and Brielle, born in February 2024.

They announced in Decemeber 2024 that their third daughter is on the way.

No. 12 Jason Duggar was born on April 21, 2000.

In January 2017, the Daily Mail disclosed that Jim Bob assisted Jase in purchasing a $33,000 fixer-upper located in Prairie Grove, Arkansas, approximately half an hour from the Duggar family’s main residence. Subsequently, he established his own construction company.

In May 2024, he made their relationship public on Instagram with Maddie Grace, and they got married the subsequent October.

Charmed No. 13, James Duggar was born July 7, 2001.

He doesn’t have a public romantic relationship yet, but he’s very caring towards his numerous nieces and nephews.

Michelle wrote on his 19th birthday in 2019 that “James is the beloved ‘fun uncle,’ and all the young lads around here admire him greatly and aspire to be like him.” James possesses an incredible knack for inventing solutions. As a child, we’d frequently discover him tinkering with household appliances. He has always had a penchant for disassembling things, understanding their inner workings, and reassembling them – occasionally with unique upgrades!

This year, James dedicated much effort towards obtaining his Commercial Driver’s License. Now, he’s mastered the art of navigating large trucks and heavy equipment with ease! We eagerly anticipate witnessing the incredible opportunities that lay ahead for him as guided by fate.

No. 14 Justin Duggar arrived on Nov. 15, 2002.

And from the department of growing up so fast…

In September 2020, Justin made their relationship with Claire Spivey known to the public. They got engaged a month later in November, and they tied the knot on February 26, 2021.

In the company of his elder sibling, Jill, Jim Bob and Michelle’s fifteenth child, Jackson Duggar, made his arrival on May 23, 2004.

When Jackson turned sixteen on his birthday, his mother Michelle commended his wit and mentioned that she was certain he could hardly contain his excitement about obtaining his driver’s license.

Johannah Duggar was born on October 11, 2005, which led to the creation of the initial family documentary titled “16 Kids and Starting a New Home Life“.

Michelle expressed on her daughter’s 15th birthday in 2020 that the girl is full of fun and sociable, always eager to meet new people. Her younger siblings deeply admire her and think she’s simply wonderful, and Michelle couldn’t feel more blessed by God for being her mother!

Jennifer Duggar arrived on Aug. 2, 2007, then the baby of the family.

Their TLC show that premiered Sept. 29, 2008, was christened 17 Kids and Counting.

Now, OMG, she’s a teenager.

Michelle expressed that Jennifer is reliable, devoted, and a joy to be around when her niece turned 13. The kids adore her so much that they often cling to her because they don’t want her to let go! Moreover, Jennifer shows a deep affection for animals and diligently takes care of them daily. Not too long ago, she even helped nurse a brood of 7 little bunnies back to health!

Here on the right, the penultimate Duggar child was born Dec. 18, 2008.

2019 saw Jordyn-Grace being described by her mother as an extroverted girl who can easily connect with anyone, accompanied by a laugh that often brings joy to our days.

19th on our list is Josie Duggar, who is seen here with her niece Meredith. Born on December 10, 2009, Josie arrived three months early, tipping the scales at just 1 pound and 6 ounces. Consequently, she spent a significant six-month period receiving care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).

On my dear one’s 11th birthday in 2020, I penned: “Josie is a whirlwind of vigor! The moment she greets the dawn, she seldom pauses until her head rests at bedtime.
