Derick Dillard Comes Clean: We"re Breaking All of Jim Bob"s Rules!

We’ve known for some time now that Derick Dillard is not Jim Bob Duggar’s favorite son-in-law.


In fact, it’s been said that Jim Bob flat-out doesn’t like Derick — and frankly, it’s not hard to see why.



After all, other than Josh, no one in the Duggar clan has done more to compromise the family business than Derick.


The clearest evidence of Derick’s ineptitude is the fact that he got fired from Counting On and convinced his wife, Jill Duggar, to quit the show as a gesture of solidarity.


But leaving his family without a source of income was just the first in a long line of eff-ups for Derick.



From there, Derick’s bigoted social media tirades continued unabated, as he attacked other TLC stars such as Jazz Jennings ad Nate Berkus in the sort or ignorant tirades for which he’s become famous.


Jim Bob and company probably didn’t object to the belief system behind Derick’s unhinged rants, but the Duggars likely took issue with the public nature of his hate speech.


After all, not unlike the evangelical church that seems to have served as his business model, JB built an empire that’s based on strict adherence to a set of mostly arbitrary rules.



These days, Jim Bob’s offspring — particularly his daughters — are flouting his guidelines left and right, and the patriarch reportedly blames the men they married.


Jinger Duggar began wearing pants in defiance of the family dress code after she was granted permission by her husband, Jeremy Vuolo.


And now, Jill Duggar is allowing her kids to enjoy secular entertainment — a massive no-no in the Duggars’ world.



And not surprisingly, it seems the Duggars believe Derick is squarely to blame.


And it seems D-Dill may have just confirmed their suspicions on social media.


Earlier this week, a fan asked Derick, “Why don’t you guys get a TV?”


“How do you know we don’t have one?” Derick replied.



If you’re a longtime Counting On fan, then you’re probably already aware that the Duggars grew up in a house without television.


In recent months, Jill and Derick have taken flak for allowing their children access to such popular children’s characters as Peppa the Pig.


That may seem like just about the most innocent thing imaginable, but the Duggars are of the belief that all children’s entertainment that all children’s entertainment should have to do with fire and brimstone.


That way, kids like Henry and Spurgeon will understand why their dad is going to hell.

Leah Messer Comes Clean About Secret Boyfriend: We Lived Together!


On Wednesday, MTV aired a special installment of Teen Mom 2 entitled Secrets Revealed.


And Leah Messer certainly helped the show deliver on that promise.


In one of the episode"s most memorable segments, Leah opened up about her relationship with T.R. Dues.


Rumors about Leah and T.R. have been circulating for years, but this is the first time that Leah addressed the matter publicly.


And saying that some fans were shocked by her revelations would be putting it very mildly.


 




1. Shunning the Spotlight

Leah has a reputation as one of the most secretive Teen Moms. With the possible exception of Chelsea Houska, she seems to value her privacy more than any of her co-stars.



2. Leah Opens Up

On this week’s special, however, Leah spilled the tea in a major way, opening up about a period in her life that had long been shrouded in secrecy.



3. Happy Again

These days, Leah is dating Jason Jordan and appears to be happier than she’s been in years.



4. Darker Days

Following her divorce from Jeremy Calvert, however, Leah went through a difficult time which resulted in her decision to check into rehab for emotional issues.



5. Keeping a Low Profile

Leah quite understandably shied away from the spotlight quite a bit in those days, hoping to protect her privacy, as well as that of her daughters.



6. It’s All Coming Together

And it seems it’s for that reason that Leah was so secretive about the relationship that helped her through one of the most difficult times in her life.

Jill Duggar Comes Clean: Here"s How I"ve Been Making Money Since Quitting Counting On!


Back in 2017, Derick Dillard was fired from Counting On after launching a bigoted tirade against a fellow TLC star on social media.


Shortly thereafter, his wife, Jill Duggar, quit the show, thus leaving the Dillard clan with no apparent source of income.


These days, Derick is planning to attend law school, but fans are understandably curious about how he and Jill plan to support their two sons while he begins the very lengthy process of becoming an attorney.


Now, it looks as though we may have our answer.


Jump into the gallery below to learn the surprising secret behind Jill"s financial comeback.




1. The Breadwinner

In many respects, Jill is as traditional as her fundamentalist parents. But in one important way, she’s very much a woman of the 21st century.



2. One Ugly Rant

Last year, Derick was fired from Counting On after he launched an appalling tirade against fellow TLC star Jazz Jennings.



3. The Victim

Jazz is a transgender teen, and she became the surprise target of Derick’s wrath for reasons that remain a mystery.



4. The Subservient Wife

Jill quit the show shortly after Derick was fired, seemingly as a show of support for her husband.



5. A Tight Spot

The move left Jill and Derick without any visible means of support, and for months fans were baffled as to how the family was getting by.



6. Duggar Finances

Sure, Jill’s parents are well-off, but they also have a LOT of kids to support. So how has Jill been supporting herself and her family this year?

Jessa Duggar Comes Clean: I Broke One of My Family"s Major Rules

It’s no secret that the Duggars adhere to a very strict code of conduct.


In fact, next to the sheer size of Jim Bob and Michelle’s brood, following rules is what they’re most famous for.



Duggar women are especially constrained, as every aspect of their day-to-day life – from clothing to interpersonal relationships – is strictly governed by regulations that are determined and enforced first by their parents, and then by their husbands.


Some of the Duggar girls have married men who are less strict than their father, which is why, for example, Jinger Duggar is allowed to wear pants.


But there are certain rules that are consistent throughout the faith-based community to which the Duggars belong.


And now it looks as though Jessa Duggar may have inadvertently violated one of those rules.



For reasons that won’t surprise anyone who’s familiar with their belief system, the Duggars are staunchly opposed to the consumption of alcohol.


Getting liquored up isn’t conducive to remaining perfectly chaste and modest at all times, and thus, booze is strictly off-limits to all Duggars, women in particular.


So you can imagine the shock among fans this week when Jessa Duggar revealed that she has, in fact, sampled the devil’s brew.


In an interview with Jessa that resurfaced and was published by In Touch Weekly, the 25-year-old revealed that she has imbibed on more than one occasion.



Though she was careful to note that she never allowed alcohol to pass through her lips intentionally.


“Not on purpose,” Jessa replied when asked if she’s ever had a drink.


“We’re really heavily in politics, and sometimes, it’s one of those fancy, ritzy events and they serve you what you think is punch, and it’s not,” she added.


“You’re like, ‘Oops, yeah, that wasn’t punch.’ That was champagne or something.”


Jessa didn’t say what her next move was in those situations, but we assume she guzzled the rest of the glass, then headed straight to the bar, where she bellows for more.



We kid, of course. 


Obviously, Jessa is no fan of the hooch, and we’re sure she’s in no hurry to break with the rest of her family on the issue of spiritous beverages.


Besides, Jessa is mom-shamed enough these days.


Imagine if word got out in the fundamentalist community that she enjoys a glass of wine from time to time!


There’s a good chance she would literally be crucified.

Little People, Big World Recap: Amy Comes Clean About Caryn

The spotlight remained on Amy Roloff this week.


On the second new episode this spring of Little People, Big World, the family matriarch was once again the main cast member featured…


… and she once again spoke candidly about how awkward things can be with ex-husband Matt.



A week ago, Amy talked openly about how she’s considered moving off the family farm to get away from Matt.


Not because she has any especially hard feelings regarding the couple’s split, but because Matt is dating Caryn Chandler.


As long-time fans of this series and this family know well, Chandler got to know Amy and Matt long before they divorced in May of 2016.


She works as the manager on the farm, creating quite a bit of tension by then actually getting together with Matt romantically.


Amy has done her best to make the situation work, never bad-mouthing the couple in public or anything… but it’s clearly a strange set-up.


“Caryn is an employee and in a personal relationship with my ex-husband, so it is still hard to invite Caryn to some of the family events,” Roloff said on Tuesday evening’s installment, adding simply and honestly:


“I’d rather minimize the personal interaction. It’s not healthy for me.”


This is as open as Amy has ever been about Matt and Caryn, who are pictured below and who may even be engaged.



The family event in question on the episode was a baby shower for daughter Audrey.


Amy wanted to throw one for the mother-to-be and was torn on whether or not to invite Caryn.


“Even though it’s a challenge with Matt and I living on the farm together, being divorced but still business partners, we are still doing our best to communicate with one another,” she said on camera.


“I’m not sure for me if it will ever be as easy as I like to talk to him, whether it be business or otherwise, but we do make sure that if we’re having a family gathering that we both each know about it.”


This is a helpful way to approach the relationship.


But that doesn’t mean it’s always easy.


It’s worth also mentioning, of course, that Amy is very happy in her own romance with Chris Marek.


On last night’s episode, she spent time planning his birthday party.



Still, however, a bulk of the hour was spent trying to deal with Caryn and Matt and what to do about the baby shower.


“It is hard for me to say, ‘Yeah, go ahead and invite Caryn,’ because it is someone I’ve known for a long time,” she explained.


“Matt’s worked with her for many, many years, and that will always hurt to some degree, but it’s something that I will have to be an adult about it.”


Eventually, Amy chose to invite Caryn…


… but Caryn actually had other plans and could not attend.


“This is new to me,” she said. “It’s new to all of us, and I think we’re just treading lightly and doing the best that we can.”


Elsewhere on the episode, Tori was nervous to parent when Zach had to go away and Jeremy came close to finishing his home repairs.


Go ahead and watch Little People, Big World online below to see everyone else in action!

Harvey Weinstein Ex-Assistant Sues: He Made Me Clean Up His Semen!

We all heard the horrifying story of what Harvey Weinstein allegedly did to his former assistant. But, as you can imagine, the 65-year-old former mega-producer had multiple assistants over the years.


One of those assistants, Sandeep Rehal, is now suing over the way that she says Harvey Weinstein treated her. This goes beyond what most of us think of as workplace sexual harassment.


The accusation that she says that she was regularly required to clean up semen and condoms, which is gross, barely scratches the surface.



TMZ reports that Sandeep Rehal is suing Harvey Weinstein and also Rob Weinstein for “unspecified damages.”


She says that she started working as Harvey Weinstein’s personal assistant in 2013.


According to her accusations, while she worked as his assistant, if they sat together in a car, he would rub her between her thighs.


She describes how he would allegedly press against her when they walked, and use derogatory language to refer to her — calling her things like “c–t” and “p–sy.”



Sandeep accuses Harvey Weinstein of repeatedly using the line:


“What’s wrong Sandeep, is the tampon up too far today?”


Obviously, that’s inexcusable to say under any circumstances, because it’s sexist and vile. In a workplace environment, it’s normally a reason to go to HR.


She also describes Harvey Weinstein in a way that matches the description of him as a leering, power-mad ogre that we’ve heard so much, saying that he was fond of the phrase:


“I am Harvey Weinstein and you are at Weinstein University. I decide whether or not you graduate.”


And then it gets worse.



Sandeep says that Harvey Weinstein had her manage an updated list of “available women” for his sexual conquests. 


She did even more to facilitate that, making sure that he was stocked with Caverject shots for erectile dysfunction.


To be clear, TMZ isn’t suggesting that Sandeep is saying that she helped him plan Weinstein’s alleged rapes of various actresses. Just that she managed his itinerary.


But then comes what might be the grossest part that doesn’t involve Weinstein touching or speaking to her.


She says that she was regularly required to clean semen from Harvey Weinstein’s couch, and to pick up his used condoms. Ewww.



She also had to obtain clean underwear for him, but out of context, getting clothes for your boss is often a pretty standard job for personal assistants.


(In context … it’s still icky)


In response, Harvey Weinstein’s representation tells TMZ:


“Mr. Weinstein categorically denies these claims and his lawyers will respond in the appropriate legal forum with evidence proving they are untrue.”


So, your pretty standard denial. A little different from the “remembering things differently” line that came out in response to Lupita Nyong’o’s disturbing story.


“The evidence will show these claims for money are in the realm of a science fiction movie.”


Sandeep Rehal isn’t even the only woman suing, of course. It sounds like Weinstein’s lawyers are going to be very, very busy. 



There has been backlash against the #MeToo movement, mostly by men who think think that each of the accused is being portrayed as being equal to the others.


(They aren’t; people have been very clear that James Franco is no Harvey Weinstein, because of course he isn’t)


And then there are the usual irritating defenses — reductions to the absurd like “what, I can’t talk to women anymore?” to which most of us just want to respond: “If that’s your takeaway, then yes.” Because if you can’t tell the difference between talking to a woman and saying inappropriate things to her, you shouldn’t be talking to anyone.


But even the most devoted contrarians seem to agree that Harvey Weinstein sounds horrifying.


He was the string that was pulled to unravel so many sex monsters.

Joy-Anna Duggar Comes Clean About Due Date, Shotgun Wedding Rumors

For months now, the biggest story surrounding the Duggar clan has had to do with Joy-Anna Duggar’s pregnancy and rumors that the family is misleading fans with regard to her due date.


Reports of Joy-Anna’s “shotgun wedding” have been circulating non-stop, and to be fair, there’s a good deal of evidence to support the theory that she secretly got pregnant prior to marrying Austin Forsyth.



And the proof just keeps piling up.


Joy-Anna and Austin have admitted to breaking the “courtship rules” that her family holds dear and they rather suspiciously moved their wedding date up by several months without any explanation.


Just last week, Joy further raised eyebrows when she commented on the news that Jinger Duggar is expecting her first child.


The 20-year-old remarked that Jinger would be giving birth just six months after her, which, as many fans pointed out, doesn’t quite match up with the timeline offered by the Duggars.


The family claims Joy got pregnant on her honeymoon, which began on May 26.



If that were true, her due date would be sometime at the end of February or the beginning of March.


Earlier this week, Joy and Austin made an online baby shower registry, in which they revealed that her due date is February 22, 2018.


The revelation has Duggar fans split, with some claiming it’s evidence that Joy got pregnant before her due date, and others claiming the exact opposite.


While it’s true that Joy’s due date is less than nine months after her wedding, the news puts to rest the rumor that Joy got pregnant in March, thus prompting the rescheduling of her nuptials.


Skeptics point out that even if Joy got pregnant on her wedding night, her due date would likely be later than February 22.



Obviously, the matter is far from resolved, and it probably won’t be completely settled even after Joy gives birth.


If Joy delivers before her due date, then the nay-sayers will insist its solid evidence that she’s lying about her conception date.


Duggar loyalists will point out that every pregnancy is different, and babies arrive well ahead of schedule every day.


Either way, it’s one more controversy for a family that’s known little else in recent years.


Watch Counting On online for more from reality TV’s most famous family.
