Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar: Breaking Up Over Josh!?

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are on the verge of a breakup again, according to a new tabloid report, and you know who is at the crux of it all.



In a way, it’s a rehash of a rumor that’s been circulating for months:


Despite the fact that his sex scandals have largely blown over, Jim Bob and Michelle are fighting over Josh and heading for divorce.


Ironically, Anna Duggar and Josh are on good terms after all this.


Anyway, one of the pariah’s parents allegedly does not want anything to do with their first-born, while the other wants him back in the fold.


Can you guess which Duggar parent is which?



In Touch magazine’s latest cover story features a smiling Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and the “fight that split the family apart,” supposedly.


The gossip publication claims that the pair has been at odds, and that while Jim Bob is ready to forgive his son, his wife isn’t so sure.


Apparently, the tension has grown so thick that either Jim Bob or Michelle will be moving out of their Arkansas home in the near future.


Who will stay and who will leave the compound?!



There are only two real possibilities here as we see it:


Either the cover above is entirely inaccurate, or Jim Bob and Michelle are doing one heck of a fine job masking whatever tension exists.


Just three days ago, he looked lovingly at Michelle in a birthday video message for son Josiah on the family’s official Facebook account.


In the clip, Jim Bob extolled the virtues of his 20-year-old son and his “loving spirit towards people” while Michelle glowed by his side.


Like we said, they’d have to be really good actors.



Jim Bob also gushed over Michelle in a recent anniversary tribute in which he also appeared to shade Josh, casting doubt on this story.


For all the recurring talk of the Duggars divorcing, that would come as nothing short of a monumental shock at this stage of the game.


Why? Consider the past, present and future …


Whatever you think of them personally, the family’s comeback from Josh’s sordid scandals in 2015 has been nothing short of extraordinary.


TLC canceled 19 Kids and Counting pretty fast, but after a few months, Jill & Jessa: Counting On was reborn (then renamed Counting On).



If you watch Counting On online, the recent pivot toward Jill, Jessa and now Jinger Duggar and Jeremy Vuolo has been very effective.


The Duggars are back, and better than ever; Jim Bob and Michelle may be more in the background these days, but they’re not invisible.


Nor are they stupid. On the contrary.


You might think of their values and lifestyle as incredibly backward, and there’s an argument to be made for that. But they’re not unintelligent.


They know what a valuable thing they have going lately and how the money train is back on the tracks following its interim derailment.


No way they’re going to risk that.



Besides, have you ever heard of Duggars getting divorced? Do you know what a Covenant Marriage is and what that entails specifically?


Exactly. Not gonna be happening.


We have little doubt that there are differing opinions about Josh, both in terms of what he did and how do deal with him going forward.


They wouldn’t be good parents – or human beings – if they didn’t struggle internally with an issue that’s as complicated as they come.


It’s a big leap to go from that to divorce, though, especially given that this is JIM BOB AND MICHELLE DUGGAR we’re talking about.



Josh may be the third trail that no one in the family wants to touch, but he’s still family, and we expect things to be more or less status quo.


In other words:


Keeping the cheater off TLC cameras as long as possible, but slowly reintroducing him into family life on social media here and there.


And keeping a close eye on Josh’s flip phone records. You never know what trouble that dude can get into, even on an archaic device.

Kanye West Music Video Sculpture Selling for HOW MUCH?

Kim Kardashian was a huge fan of husband, Kaney West’s “Famous” music video. 


In fact, Kim is a huge fan of whatever the heck Kanye decides to do. 


He could do something pretty despicable and she’d probably still be singing his praises to the masses. 



That’s sort of what happens when you’re happily married.


You make sure no one is talking smack about your significant other. 


Just ask Taylor Swift. She learned pretty quickly not to mess with Yeezy


The GIF below probably sums up Swift’s reaction to the Kardashians getting involved. 



Kim had to get involved and managed to get her whole family in on the fun. 


If you watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online, you’ll know there was practically a whole episode about Taylor Swift allegedly lying. 


It was great, but it also felt like a desperate attempt for ratings. 


There is word that the reality show could be on the chopping block if the ratings continue to slide.



There’s nothing like calling your enemy out on television. Right?!


It made the world think Taylor’s days as Queen B were numbered. 


Swift endured a week of hell when Kim revealed she had evidence that Swift was lying. 


Granted, the backlash to “Famous” has been pretty crazy. 


Who would think of putting a group of celebrities in a music video together?


Add in the fact that they’re pretty fake and naked, then you’ve got a Kanye West spectacular. 



It’s unsurprising that Kim would want to be all over the sculpture that recreates the huge talking point from the controversial music video. 


The most ominous thing about the sculpture is that they can inhale and exhale, giving guests to the gallery the impression the real celebrities are lying in the abnormally large bed. 


If you’re going to do something, why not give it your all? That appears to have been the motto to the whole thing. 


Kim Kardashian revealed to W Magazine that she played a part in sculpting her body. 


Swift probably won’t be amused about the fact there’s a life-like naked version of herself as part of the sculpture. 


The likes of Amber Rose and Donald Trump will probably be ecstatic at the free publicity they’re getting for the whole thing. 


Talk about silver linings and all that jazz. 



“I shaved my own butt,” the 35-year-old reality star said at the event.


“It was a little too small, and then it was a little too big. I was there with the tools to get it right.”


We’re sure she was. You only need to look at her Instagram to know just how much she loves the whole thing. 


Even her sister, Kendall Jenner showed up to pose with the sculpture. 


There’s nothing like looking at a bunch of naked celebrities with your sister. Right?!



There’s word that the gallery is hoping to fetch $ 4 million for work of art. 


That’s a huge sum of money, but there are reports it cost between $ 500,000 to $ 1 million to make. 


It’s all pretty crazy!


What do you think about all this?

Man Throws 4-Year-Old From Bridge, Cited For Reckless Endangerment

A 22-year-old mother let some man throw her four-year-old from a railroad bridge into a Washington river on August 24th, and now they are being cited with reckless endangerment.


The mom claimed that the little boy thought it was fun, but the Department of Social and Healthy Services took him and another sibling into custody on Wednesday, August 31st, according to local station, KING-TV.


Swimmers frequent this area of the Wynoochee River, but witnesses in the water were horrified to see the little boy being thrown, and immediately called the police.


“He was screaming and crying, it was terrible,” swimmer Brianna Jones said.



Kaylub Fawley, who shot the video and posted it to Facebook, was equally upset by what he saw.


“As soon as he hit the water, my heart sank, I felt so bad, I didn’t know what to do."


I take issue with people throwing children into swimming pools, let alone from a bridge, so I can only imagine what these people thought.


Fawley said he was about to take a picture of his friend, when he noticed something weird happening on the bridge.


“I saw the little boy and I had a gut feeling, I was like alright I got to start recording this, and as soon as I started recording, he went off,” who himself called the police and handed over the video as evidence.


“Fawley told reporters that the mother "was trying to make it seem like the whole incident was fun.”



In the video below, people can be heard yelling at Jeremiah Goodwin, 35, man not to throw the boy from the bridge, and calling him every name in the book when he eventually did.


The boy landed in the water with a loud "fwap," similar to the sound made when someone does a belly flop.  


Fortunately, he was unharmed when authorities checked him out.


According to the police report, Goodwin was a local who had just met the mom and son, and wanted to help the little boy "safely" get off the bridge.


Goodwin, authorities believe, was under the influence of alcohol at the time of questioning.


"The mother initially told deputies that she had lost sight of her son and then all of the sudden, noticed an adult male throw her son from the bridge," the police report states.


"She eventually stated that her child had kept asking her to jump off of the bridge however she continued to tell him no.  


"Shortly thereafter, a man she had just met at the river had her son on the bridge and said he was going to throw her son off of the bridge.


"The mother claimed it was at this point that she agreed to it and swam out into the water.  The man then threw her son into the river and the mother retrieved him."


Goodwin and the mom have not been arrested, but the man was also cited for trespassing on the bridge.

Rory Feek Shares Heartbreaking Footage of Wife/Daughter

Prepare to cry your eyes out upon watching the following video.


It has been shared by Rory Feek six months after his wife, Joey Feek, lost her battle with cancer.



On Tuesday, the singer wrote a heartfelt tribute to his little girl on his official blog, including both the footage below and many beautiful words.


"I"m reminded what a gift she is. What a gift she"s been to me. And to Joey," Rory wrote, adding:


"She is the smile on the face of father who should be crying. She is the joy in the life of a family that should be filled with sadness."


Joey Feek gave birth to little India in February of 2014; the child was born with Down Syndrome.


"God doesn"t make mistakes," the father of three said, remembering all those times when friends and family member would express their condolences to him and Joey about their daughter"s diagnosis.



He explained his thinking as follows:


"That"s such a strange response to the birth of a child. Maybe they were just sensing the confusion in my voice or more likely, they didn"t know what to say.


"It"s what society has told them – told all of us … awe, you didn"t get a regular baby … you got something less …That"s the messaging that is out there." 


After chronicling her journey and all the time she spent with her daughter online, Joey Feek died at the age of 40 in March.


Rory says he compiled the footage below as a tribute to his wife"s life and to the child they created together.



"I"m so so proud of [the film]. Proud of my wife. Proud of the chance to share this story with others," he wrote.


"You just watch a woman live and love and are changed. And you also see a baby born near the beginning that is not the child we expected. But by the end, you – like us – realize that she"s not less.


"She"s more. More wonderful and more precious and even more important to our lives and story than we expected."


India loves to swim, Rory says, and attends a school for children with special needs.


"Indiana is not less than any other child. Different is not less," Rory proudly concluded. "Having down-syndrome doesn"t make her life any less meaningful than someone else"s or her dreams or feelings any less important.


"Not as a child and I suspect, not in the years to come when she grows to be an adult."


Watch the video now. We"re not too proud to admit that we have tears rolling down our face as we type this…
