Anna Duggar Actually Tweets, Sends Note to Brother-in-Law

Anna Duggar Tweets less often than family members of hers have babies.

That’s barely even a joke.

The Duggars have A LOT of babies and Anna sends very few messages on Twitter.

But the woman who is stuck sharing a bed each night with Josh Duggar took to her social media account on Tuesday night in order to address her brother-in-law, John David Duggar.

Anna did so in light of the bombshell news that John David is courting.

He’s officially googly eyes (and nothing more!) at someone named Abbie Burnett, having confirmed the development yesterday to Us Weekly and then on the official Duggar website.

“Abbie and I are just so excited, we’ve known of each other for several years,” the 28-year-old explained simply, adding that the two “fell in love quickly.”

Burnett, meanwhile, says she and her beau really connected at a church event in Oklahoma, which is where she resides and works as a nurse.

The relationship is taking a segment of the Internet by storm, prompting even someone as shy as Anna to chime in.

“Congratulations! So happy for you both!” she wrote in response to John David and Abbie praising the goodness of God on their joint Twitter account.

Oh, yes, things are serious enough for this new couple to already have a Twitter handle, @johnandabbie.

The message you see above is the first they’ve sent from it.

And the message penned by Anna above is the first she has personally sent since May 1, at which time she asked if anyone else was going to watch some film titled “Like Arrow.”

Aside from that, her Twitter page over the past two months has just been filled with re-Tweets of posts from the official Duggar account.

The mother of five has stayed very quiet on all forms of social media ever since her husband was accused of molesting two of his sisters, along with the family’s babysitter, in 2015.

Josh eventually admitted to this digusting actions, and also later admitted to cheating on Anna through the hook-up website Ashley Madison.

The guy totally sucks, but that isn’t the point right now.

The point, instead, is that John David may have at last found the woman of his dreams.

At 28 years old, in the view of his controversial parents, he’s waiting long enoughm that’s for certain.

This is what Jim Bob and Michelle had to say in the wake of their son’s courtship confirmation:

We are so excited to announce the courtship of John David and Abbie!

John David brings our hearts so much joy and we’ve watched him faithfully pray, wait, and trust God for the right girl to come along!

Now, a beautiful relationship has blossomed between the two of them.

We can’t wait to see what the Lord will do in the future.

Joy-Anna Duggar Shocker: Brother-In-Law Arrested For Bomb Threat

If you follow the news of her family, then you’re probably aware by now that Joy-Anna Duggar is expecting her first child.

Joy-Anna married Austin Forsyth just three months ago, and many fans believe there’s something suspicious about the timing.

But today, the Joy-Anna and Austin shotgun wedding rumors have taken a backseat, thanks to new reports about some truly disturbing behavior from Joy-Anna’s brother-in-law.

Documents obtained by Radar Online from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Austin’s brother, Brandon Forsyth, was arrested in 2010 after phoning a bomb threat into an area hospital and attempting to purchase a stolen weapon.

“On or about May 29, 2010 in Bowie County, Texas, defendant, through the use of the telephone, made a threat to kill, injure, and to intimidate the occupants of the Health South Rehabilitation hospital by means of an explosive,” the court papers read.

Based on the court filing, it sounds as though Brandon was not actually in possession of an explosive device, but understandably, authorities treated his threat as a very serious matter, nonetheless:

“Defendant did intentionally convey false and misleading information,” reads the arrest report.

“He used the telephone to make a bomb threat to Health South Rehabilitation Hospital, under circumstances where such information may reasonably have been believed, that indicated that an activity had taken, was taking, and would take place.”

Brandon accepted a plea deal in October of 2010 and was sentenced to 20 months in prison.

Austin has never spoken publicly about the matter, and it’s unclear if the Duggars are even aware of it.

Now obviously, Austin isn’t responsible for the actions of his brother.

The arrest is merely an ugly incident in his family’s past that was likely a result of Brandon’s struggle with mental illness.

“Federal agents who are also investigating this case have reported that the defendant suffers from an obsessive compulsive disorder and bi-polar disorder,” the docs read.

“There is also concern that since his arrest on his state charged Mr. Forsyth has become increasingly mentally unstable.”

The story is interesting primarily because the Duggars typically exercise such strict control over their public image, that a past scandal like this may have been a deal-breaker if Joy-Anna’s father, Jim Bob, was aware of it.

Interestingly, the report comes on the heels of questions about Austin’s character and integrity.

Fans are bound to question whether or not Austin was upfront with Jim Bob about his brother’s past.

Whatever the case, it’s yet another incident that will raise concerns about the stability of Joy-Anna’s marriage.

Hallie Biden, Widow of Beau Biden, is Dating Brother-in-Law

For the record, we are not passing judgment on anyone involved in the following article.

We’re simply relaying details of a story that is trending online and which may be of interest to our readers.

And that story is this:

Hallie Biden, the widow of Joe Biden’s late son Beau Biden, has started a romance with Beau’s brother Hunter Biden, the former vice president’s younger son.

Hallie and Hunter, of course, were brother-in-law and sister-in-law when Beau was still alive.

The 46-year old tragically died of brain cancer in 2015.

Hunter, who is pictured below, shares three daughters with estranged wife Kathleen. The two have been separated for awhile.

In a statement to Page Six on Wednesday, Hunter acknowledged the relationship and said the following:

“Hallie and I are incredibly lucky to have found the love and support we have for each other in such a difficult time, and that’s been obvious to the people who love us most.

“We’ve been so lucky to have family and friends who have supported us every step of the way.”

Former Vice President Biden has also confirmed the relationship to The New York Post, saying that he and his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, have given their blessing to the Hallie and Hunter.

“We are all lucky that Hunter and Hallie found each other as they were putting their lives together again after such sadness,” the Bidens said, adding:

“They have mine and Jill’s full and complete support and we are happy for them.”

Hunter is an attorney; he and Kathleen got married in 2002 and separated in October 2015, five months after former Delaware attorney general Beau’s death.

Beau and Hallie have two children, a daughter named Natalie and a son actually named Hunter.

Kathleen, meanwhile, who serves as the chairwoman of the Washington, DC-based Eleanor Roosevelt Dialogue, has not yet commented on the situation. 

As for Hunter Biden, a few tidbits of note:

• He was discharged from the U.S Navy Reserve in 2014 after testing positive for cocaine.


• His mother, Neilia Hunter, and younger sister, Naomi Biden, were killed in a car accident in 1972. Hunter and his brother Beau survived the crash, but were seriously injured.


• He earned a bachelor’s degree from Georgetown University and a Juris Doctor from Yale Law School.

We wish Haille and Hunter happiness in their relationship.

Does this seem like an awkward and less-than-ideal situation? Yes.

But we have no idea what it feels like to lose a brother and/or a husband.

If these two found comfort in each other and that comfort led them to this place, who are we to judge?

Dan Dillard: Jill Duggar"s Brother-In-Law Gets Engaged!

Dan Dillard – the brother of Jill Duggar’s husband, Derick Dillard – may be on his way to starting a Duggar-sized family of his own.

According to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup, Dan got engaged to girlfriend Deena Tougaw over the weekend.

The proposal took place in picturesque Monterrey, California.

Deena posted the above photo, along with a caption reading:

“On a beautiful pier, in an incredible small beach town in California, as the sun was setting, I said yes to my prince. I’ve never felt so loved in all my life.”

Dan also posted a pic of the engagement and wrote:

“She said yes! So glad that [Deena] accepted my proposal to marry me!” 

Despite reports that Jill and Derick were coming home this week, the couple is still performing missionary work in El Salvador.

Wifi service is scant in the village they’ve made their home for most of the past year, and sources say several days passed before Derick learned of Dan’s engagement.

Derick eventually was able to post the following comment on social media:

“Congratulations to my brother and future sister on their engagement! The things you find out when you get wifi while on the mission field LOL! May the Lord bless y’all as you seek him.”

Last names aside, the two couples have a surprising amount in common.

Before Jill and Derick got engaged, they only knew each for a few months.

Dan and Deena followed suit, having reportedly met just earlier this year.

One major difference: Dan and Deena didn’t do the whole “courting” thing, which means they’ve totally probably kissed before! Scandalous!

Anyway, congrats to the happy couple.

Now, get to making babies, you two!
