Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar Publicly Welcome 20th Child!
Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, along with the rest of their famous family, took to Facebook over the weekend to welcome their 20th child.
And celebrate the young man’s birthday to boot.
While the news of Jim Bob and Michelle welcoming a 20th child has been circulating for awhile, this is a public confirmation of sorts.
And what better occasion in which to do so?
“Happy 9th Birthday Tyler!” Jim Bob wrote.
“We are so glad to have you in our home and a part of our family! Your bright smile and sweet spirit brings much joy to us all!”
The above picture shows Jim Bob and Michelle out to eat with Tyler, Jackson Duggar, Michelle sister Carol and Jim’s mother Mary.
Tyler, the son of Michelle’s niece Rachel Hutchins, officially became the 20th child of the enormous Duggar family back in November.
Four months earlier, he moved in with them.
When you have 19 kids, some will vary in age by a lot.
As a result, the nine-year-old has found a great new friend (or sibling, if you will) in Jackson, according to the Duggars’ post.
“Jackson loves having a ‘little brother/cousin’ to ride bikes and play with and read your Bibles together,” said the happy family.
“Our prayer is that each day you will seek God’s will for your life, and that God will use your life in a great way,” they added.
“We pray over you that one of your first memory verses from the Bible will be lived out through your life!”
“Love, Aunt Michelle & Uncle Jim Bob.”
It’s been a rough life at times so far for the youngster, and whatever you think of the Duggars, they are doing a very good deed here.
An Arkansas judge recently granted a request made by Jim Bob and Michelle to become the permanent guardians of their grand-nephew.
Stating in his ruling that it was in the “best interest” of the child, the judge made permanent an arrangement already borne out of necessity.
The Duggars took in the boy after his “unemployed and homeless” mother (with Tyler, pictured above) struggled to properly care for him.
“Jim Bob and Michelle have made the child feel right at home. They treat him like their own and he looks up to them as parents,” a source said.
The boy’s mother is also able to have supervised visits with her son at the Duggar’s home; Hutchins supported the Duggars’ bid to adopt.
Rachel has battled addiction and is on probation for three years after being arrested this past April on felony charges of breaking and entering.
Hutchins, pictured above with Jinger Duggar, is “a good person, but she’s made some bad decisions,” an insider previously told In Touch.
Currently engaged to a man named Michael Wright according to her Facebook page, she gave birth to her son as an unwed teenager.
Rachel first gave up custody in August 2015, months before her arrest, to Michelle’s sister Carolyn, who was initially Tyler’s guardian.
Then she suffered a setback in the form of a stroke in 2016.
After Carolyn was unable to care for the boy, the Duggar family – who know Rachel and Tyler well – stepped in to take on the responsibility.
Michelle, having given birth to a stillborn daughter named Jubilee Shalom in December 2011, has long spoken of having a 20th child.
Now, in the most unexpected of ways, she has one.
If the family’s recent scandals were an issue for court when reviewing the request for guardianship, it didn’t derail their efforts ultimately.
That and Josh’s infidelity scandal, which led to myriad Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar divorce rumors, caused the family a lot of heartache.
That all seems to be behind the Duggars these days, with the couple having turned a page in more ways than one over the past year.
A source close to the family reports that with Tyler:
“Jim Bob and Michelle couldn’t be happier now.”

Jim Bob & Michelle Duggar Introduce 20th Child!
As previously reported, the Duggar family recently welcomed their 20th child into their home under the most unlikely of circumstances.
Now, Jim Bob and Michelle have introduced him on social media!
For those who may have missed it last fall, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar were awarded guardianship of an eight-year-old boy named Tyler.
Yes, JBD and his wife, who produced 19 children biologically (or 20 if you count stillborn Jubilee) acquired this one a little bit differently.
Michelle has a 23-year-old niece, Rachel Hutchins, who has fallen on very hard times – unemployed, she’s homeless, and on probation.
Sad as that is, Rachel’s son Tyler, was paying the price, and her mom (Michelle’s sister), who had been taking care of him, had a stroke.
With T’s mom and grandma both unable to continue looking after him, Michelle Duggar nobly stepped in and took charge of the situation.
Jim Bob were granted custody of their great-nephew, seen here:
Despite having formally added Tyler to the family, the Duggars have only mentioned the boy occasionally, until posting the photo above.
The picture revealed that Tyler was about to “finish off” the jug.
Of milk. That’s about as hardcore as beverages get for Duggar family members of any age, but hey, it does a body good and all that.
Anyway, the post left fans asking questions about Tyler, but the family didn’t reply. Curiously, they asked for more privacy instead.
The Duggar Family Blog, which is not run by, yet in close contact with the family, said that they sought privacy for the child at this time.
“At this time, the Duggars are choosing not to reveal the details of the situation that resulted in them receiving guardianship of Tyler.”
“We encourage fans to respect the [Duggar family’s] wishes, especially since there is a minor involved,” the site continued.
That may change, and when and if “the family decides to share more information with the public, we will post it to our blog.”
For now, though, we’re left with more questions than answers.
Since the guardianship was granted by a judge, Tyler has been seen in numerous family photos, usually with little fanfare.
He was seen participating in homeschooling with the other Duggars, to getting a pocket knife to match Josh’s son Michael’s.
A family insider recently said that the guardianship is going well and that the family has high hopes of adopting him for good.
That would be quite a storyline for Counting on Season 3, no?
As it is, the Duggars are gearing up for a new season that features Jessa Duggar’s second pregnancy and Joy-Anna Duggar’s courtship.
Moreover, we expect to see plenty of Jinger’s marriage to Jeremy Vuolo, and likely the announcement of Jill Duggar’s second pregnancy.
The adoption story, though, would be the most surprising, and arguably the most heartwarming thing to happen in Tonititown in years.
If not ever. Think about it for a second, Duggar Nation:
Mating and procreating will always be the family’s meal ticket, but going above and beyond like this is both unexpected and beautiful.
A little universally positive PR never hurt … just saying.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar Welcome 20th Child!
A lot of times, we kind of look down on the Duggars, you know, because of that oldest boy, the one who molested his sisters and cheated on his wife.
But sometimes, this family is OK. Sometimes they’re even amazing.
This is one of those times.
Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have added one more child to their big ol’ brood, bringing their total number of children up to 20.
“But how?” you might be wondering. “Michelle is 49 years old, and I didn’t even know she was pregnant!”
And the answer, friends, is that Jim Bob and Michelle welcomed their 20th kid through the magic of the law.
OK, so Michelle has this 23-year-old niece, Rachel Hutchins, right?
Rachel is in a bad place in her life right now: she’s unemployed, she’s homeless, and she’s on probation for some breaking and entering she did back in April.
That’s sad enough all by itself, but Rachel also has an eight-year-old son, Tyler.
Rachel’s mother (Michelle’s sister) was taking care of Tyler, but she had a stroke over the summer, leaving her unable to continue looking after the boy.
So Michelle stepped in, she took charge of the situation, and she and Jim Bob gained temporary custody of their great-nephew.
So sweet, right? Well, it’s about to get even better …
Now we’re hearing that the Duggars have gotten permanent custody of Tyler! And that makes him, in a strange, beautiful way, their 20th child.
According to court documents, the Duggars’ attorney stated that the boy’s mother, Rachel, “recently exhibited a pattern of behavior demonstrating that she is presently unable to meet Tyler’s health, safety, and other needs.”
Rachel has agreed to the guardianship — she’s also reportedly agreed to support the Duggars’ plan to adopt Tyler — and has also agreed to supervised visitation.
As for Jim Bob and Michelle, a new report from In Touch claims that they “couldn’t be happier right now.”
“Jim Bob and Michelle have made the child feel right at home,” a source says. “They treat him like their own and he looks up to them as parents.”
Adorably, their children have warmly welcomed Tyler, too.
What a precious little story. And a much-needed one, after all the Duggar heartache over the last year and a half.
After all, there’s nothing like a heartwarming story about love, kindness, and family to make you forget all about, well, everything else.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar to Adopt 20th Child?!
To say it’s been a rough year for Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar would be putting it very mildly.
The Josh Duggar sex scandals damaged their family’s reputation seemingly beyond repair and led to the cancelation of the TLC reality series that had been their livelihood for seven years.
Now, however, it looks as though Michelle and Jim Bob may be planning to kill two birds with one stone by adding to their massive brood and distracting the public from the ugly events of the past year all at the same time.
According to Life & Style, the Duggars are planning to adopt a child, bringing their total number of offspring to a nice round 20.
“They’ve been mulling it over for a long time, and they feel the time is right to get legal advice and get the process underway,” a source tells the tabloid. “They’re looking to adopt a child in the New Year.”
The source says the Duggars have no preference with regard to the child’s sex, ethnicity or age:
“Michelle says she doesn’t care if they adopt a boy or a girl, or what ethnicity the child is. She says she just wants to help a child’s life.”
The Duggars have long been open about their desire to welcome another kid.
Even after Michelle’s miscarriage in 2011, she and Jim Bob continued trying to conceive until a doctor told them another pregnancy would put her life at risk.
So get ready for the possibility of twentieth Duggar child.
We’re sure Jim Bob has the baby name dictionary open to the “J” section already!
