He’s getting snarky. For a while now, many Counting On fans have wondered whether Jill Duggar’s husband, Derick Dillard, and her father, Jim Bob Duggar, previously had a falling out.

Jill, 28, and Derick, 30, are no longer featured on the TLC show, and there have been signs in the past that the law student didn’t agree with the way Jill’s family handles payment for appearances on the series. Then, on October 18, Derick further fueled the feud rumors in several cryptic tweets. Check them out in our gallery below.

Voice
