Just a few weeks after we learned that Jinger Duggar and Jeremy Vuolo were courting, the couple hit us with an even bigger surprise…
Yes, we now know that Jinger and Jeremy are engaged, and it seems that they’ll be wasting no time in getting to the altar.
The couple has been tight-lipped with regard to an exact date, but insiders say preparations are already well under way.
Naturally, the whole thing is being documented for Jill & Jessa: Counting On Season 2, and it’s safe to assume Jinger and Jeremy’s wedding will be televised.
But if the video message to fans that Jeremy posted today is any indication, that’s about all the info you’ll be getting about the Jinge and Jer’s relationship between now and when the show returns to TLC August 23.
In the clip above, Jeremy addresses family, friends and fans from outside his grandparents’ home in New Jersey.
Yes, Jersey. It’s not exactly Duggar territory, but then Jeremy’s not your typical Duggar dude.
While Jill and Jessa both married native Arkansans, Jinger wound with a Philadelphia boy through an odd chain of events.
Jeremy first became acquainted with Jessa and her husband, Ben Seewald, while traveling in Texas.
They happened to be at the home of a friend of Vuolo’s when he passed through San Antonio.
Vuolo hit it off with the Seewalds, even appearing in some of the faith-based YouTube videos they’ve posted.
Jessa introduced Jeremy to her younger sister Jinger, but it wasn’t until the two of them wound up on a missionary trip together that they hit it off.
A former pro soccer player, Jeremy is somewhat accustomed to the limelight, but he’s about to be in the public eye like never before.
It’s good to see that he’s giving himself a little media training.
