What Are the Duggars Doing Now? TLC Family's Activities Before Season 8

It's only been a couple months since Counting On Season 7 ended, but fans of the Duggar family will have a lot of catching up to do when the TLC reality show returns for its eighth season on July 30. If you want a preview of the episodes to come, however, check out what some of the older kids (and their spouses) have been up to in recent months. Here's the scoop on Anna and Josh Duggar, Jana Duggar, John David Duggar, Jessa and Ben Seewald, Jill and Derick Dillard, Jinger and Jeremy Vuolo, and Joy-Anna and Austin Forsyth…

Anna & Josh Duggar

Anna says she and a group of her family members traveled 436 miles in April to visit Waco, TX, and the home base of fellow reality stars Chip and Joanna Gaines. "Our kids had fun playing corn toss with dad, while mom went shopping! A group of us had an amazing lunch at Magnolia Table … Thanks, Chip and Joanna, for your investment in Waco." (Behind the scenes, though, Anna is "miserable" in her marriage to her disgraced husband, one neighbor reveals.)

Jana Duggar

This so-called "Cinderella Duggar" — whose bachelorette status keeps her off social media, per Duggar rules — has been focusing on her garden lately, and sister Jessa says it's a "work of art." Meanwhile, fans are floating theories about why she's still single and whether she even wants a family.

John David Duggar

John David is also single, and thus he's another social media pariah… but that might all change soon! He's rumored to have been courting a woman in recent months, and we'll reportedly meet her this season on Counting On. And when he's not focusing on finding a fiancée, he's reportedly feeling frantic about his father's finances.

Jill & Derick Dillard

Even though Derick was fired from Counting On earlier this year for disparaging transgender TLC star Jazz Jennings, he's been spending his days posting hateful messages about other LGBTQ stars. He said that the Lost In Transition cast suffered from "mental illness" and that Nate & Jeremiah by Design stars Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent lead a "degrading" lifestyle. Fans also accused Jill of bigotry after she posted a seemingly-transphobic prayer.

Jinger & Jeremy Vuolo

Jinger is now 32 weeks pregnant with her and Jeremy's first child, and fans are already putting wagers on the baby girl's name. As they await the new addition, the couple has been spending lots of quality time together, going on dinner dates and day trips. "I love being married to my best friend," Jinger recently raved on Instagram.

Joy-Anna & Austin Forsyth

Joy-Anna and Austin haven't posted much of anything online in the last couple of months: They've been too busy tending to newborn Gideon Martyn Forsyth. But they did hit Instagram to promote the relationship testimony they were going to provide at a marriage retreat… You know, even though they've been living in matrimony for all of one year.
