Oh no!!! In a couple of the shots he has hair like Jim bobs!!! Lol And she could of taken the ring off for the photo. I didn't see a purity ring either.
I think she is engaged, no purity ring, only a heart necklace on, and she signs up to twitter as jessaseewald? I think they aren't announcing it till after Jill's wedding. That and they have been courting since September. Jimbob and Michelle aren't concerned about age. Just maturity. And Michelle has said that jessa is ready for marriage. And I don't think they would of let Ben court her unless he was ready. They would of told him to gain some maturity and then come back and ask. If she isn't engaged then they should withdraw the photo to prevent any speculation. As well as change the name on her twitter account. And yes, it's an official account as the dug gars twitter account linked to their website asked followers to welcome her to twitter.
Such a fun...God loving couple. If you are led by The Lord to the path of marriage. ..may it be filled with blessings. :-) I love the example the entire duggar family has set for my daughter. Keep shining the light of God. ♥
Why do these people take so many pictures? It's not only of Ben and Jessa, but I have never known a family to have so many photographs. What do they do with them? Also, there are many comments that are just not posted. Why not? Some posters bring questions, that are logical and legitimate. I hope you ladies continue to provide a balanced point of view. I enjoy this site and look forward to reading many thought provoking points of view.
Oh I love love LOVE Jessa! She's my favourite Duggar! I'm surprised that the Duggars are letting her change that much! I'm totally fine with it though! :):):):)
I know we all are so excited for engagements and weddings. But it's a little sad that so many are trying to rush Ben and Jessa into engagement. They are both very young. And they haven't even been together for a year. Just because it was the right plan for Jill to progress quickly through the stages of courtship and engagement, doesn't mean that it's the right thing for her sister. Sisters can be very different from each other. Couldn't we all just be happy that they are happy and in love and let them progress at the timing that's right for them?
Amen! I remember how horrid the pressure was on my boyfriend and I to get engaged. I'm so glad we waited until *we* were ready, even if other people disagreed with our timetable. Give them space, people!
The film crew was out a couple days ago near the blue house the Duggars cleaned out last year. Looked like Derrik was there being filmed. Will Derrik and Jill live there?
I LOVE jessa she is sooooooo pretty Anyway my name is Abigail Mitchell and I like no lovveeee for people to call me lynifer!! I'm 8 years old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thANKS YALL ~ lyNIFER
I like Jessa's hair in the bun (4th pic) - looks very elegant. Maybe when she and Ben do decide to get married - I think that would be a real nice look for her for the wedding. Also to Jessa and Ben - take your time, have fun and get to know each other, remember - marry in haste repent in leisure! Just take it one day at a time - you will know when and if its right
I'm afraid that some viewers and posters see this family as entertainment. They are not entertainment, they are real people with lives; such as they are. So, "wanting to see" engagements, babies, etc., is playing with this family like chess pieces. Marriage is the most important decision these girls will ever be allowed to make. No one should be made to feel they are a game for others to observe and have fun with; like football. Wishing them "the right decision", waiting to see what happens is another matter.
I must say, the duggar family is far more conservative than ours, in terms of skirts, homeschool, and courtship, but yet they take so many selfies! Our family is against selfies. Not that they are evil or anything but just that we believe that they focus so much on one's self. I don't see why the duggar family is exempt from the self centered-ness of selfies anymore than anyone else is.
My husband and I met when I was 17 and he was 18. We dated for five years until we got married. Lot's people were asking why we were taking it so slow. We personally didn't see much need to get married right away. We wanted to make sure we had good quality marital counseling and were both on the same page in certain areas of life. So I understand the fact that Ben and Jessa are just ttaking it nice and slow. There's no rush, after all Ben in only 18.
I think this picture should not be a big deal because if it was one of the boys no one would say anything. Just because they have raise kids with more morals and respect than most people do now a days people want to put them down and I dont agree with that. I think they did a great job raising 18 kids.
What an absolutely stunning and gorgeous girl! This country needs more people like you. Family is everything and at the end of the day, it's all you have. What great people your children are!
Jessa is so beautiful. Her smile and eyes are intoxicating. She could model using just that smile or eyes. Her boyfriend is cute too. They make a very handsome couple. I wish more couples would save themselves for marriage. I wish the best of luck to them.
Thanks for leaving your comments! We answer as many of your questions as we can, but due to the number of comments we receive daily, we are unable to answer every one. Our aim is to post all points of view, but we do not post anything that is profane, insulting, derogatory, or in poor taste.
Well, no ring yet!
ReplyDeleteWay too young to get married. Enjoy being young and in love. Remember Ben is only 18 yrs old.
DeleteAbsolutely!

ReplyDeleteMaybe they are waiting for Ben not to be a teenager anymore :-D
ReplyDeleteLove the pics! Thanks for posting! :) -Mary
ReplyDeletedisturbing to see Jessa pose with a rifle, reminiscent of Patty Hearst!
ReplyDeleteThere are pictures of guns on here. Patty Hearst was a brain washed teenager. Huge difference.
DeleteShe is so beautiful......
ReplyDeletetoo cute! hope he ask her to marry him soon!
ReplyDeleteOh no!!! In a couple of the shots he has hair like Jim bobs!!! Lol
ReplyDeleteAnd she could of taken the ring off for the photo. I didn't see a purity ring either.

ReplyDeleteI think you are humble enough to hear, "OH MY YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!"
ReplyDeleteAngie
They are such a cute couple...!!! Love the pics!
ReplyDeleteOh I love love LOVE Jessa! She's my favourite Duggar! I'm surprised that the Duggars are letting her change that much! I'm totally fine with it though! :):):):)
ReplyDeleteLove Jessa in the top picture
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know when season 6 will be released on DVD?
ReplyDeleteThey are both pretty young, so I'm glad they are courting for a while.
ReplyDeleteThey are cute but too young to get married, it won't hurt if they wait a bit. Both of them should get their educations first.

DeleteI totally agree they should do what they feel is right for them
Deletehow come my comment didn't show up? Lately it seems like they don't even though I don't say anything against guidelines.

ReplyDeleteAMAZING GRACE!!
ReplyDeleteIm so glad they are taking their time getting to know eachother and not rushing marriage !

ReplyDeleteI feel like they are too young to get married. They don't seem to have a very deep relationship. I hope they take their time.
ReplyDeleteAgree with Anon#30 (that we shouldn't be trying to rush Ben and Jessa into marriage, but should let them progress in their own timing.)
ReplyDeletewell said Mmolesy!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI noticed that Ben is sporting a scruffy bit of five-o'clock shadow like Derick's. Definitely makes him look a little older. darlene

ReplyDeleteit was the 2nd picture but they probably took that picture away:(
ReplyDeleteAmericans & Christians included ;) have the right to bear arms!!!
ReplyDeleteBare arms are discouraged among the Duggar girls. They prefer modest dress.

ReplyDeleteHi Jamie,
We were away for a couple days and got a little behind moderating comments. We're all caught up now. :)

ReplyDeleteSweet couple! You guys look just right for each other! from a 15 year old girl in houston ,TX
ReplyDeleteSorry, but when the family decided to make their personal lives public for all to see on television, they became entertainment.
