    1. I don't think Ben could keep quiet for that long. I think Jim Bob told him he could ask Jessa, but not yet. Then when filming time came, Jim Bob gave Ben the ok for ratings.

  16. Wishing the couple well in their future. Though I'm surprised to hear this. Jessa did not seem very into him and especially after his rant against Catholics you'd think that would send up a red flag. But there must be more than what meets our eye so wishing them a long, healthy, happy married life.

  29. Wow!!!! God bless them!!!! Soo happy for them!! Exciting news!
    Thank you for allowing us to share in your most happiest time!!!
    Congratulations Jessa and Ben!
    If she said yes then she truly sees some very special character qualities in him... I mean... She has her list! She probably checked all of them off! And if he passed her list of character traits then I am sure he' ll make a great husband!!

  32. Did Jessa have to ask her parents if she could say "yes"? Was the decision totally up to her?

    1. All the Duggar girls old enough to court have put together a list of what they are looking for. And because they have regular talks with their kids they have some idea of what to look for. So when Ben sought permission to get engaged from Jimbob, Jimbob would of taken said list into account, as well as what he knows about his daughter. And her likelyhood of saying yes. So if Jimbob thought it all checked out then the rest was up to Jessa, who has the final say.

    2. The decision was totally up to her because she would know that Ben asked her parents for their blessing.

  42. Re Jenny, anonymous #18: That catholic rant of Ben's...what makes you think the Duggars feel any differently than Ben does towards catholics? I bet they agree with him...they will never say so right out, because of ratings and $$$ and TLC. that would stop the gravy train for them..remember Jim Bob checked him out before he could speak to Jessa, so it's obvious to me that they agree with him and all he stands for. So sad.

  43. How is Ben going to keep her in teeth whitener?

    ReplyDelete
  44. Agree with #45...I am sure that to be considered a courting prospect one must subscribe to the very same views that the Duggars hold...and even so far as to judge those not of their faith tradition.
    We can only pray for tolerance and acceptance...My prayer is that Ben will follow the life of St. Joseph who cared for the Baby Jesus so wonderfully and that Jessa will model herself after our Blessed Mother who was CHOSEN by GOD to be the MOTHER of HIS SON and a MOTHER to us all.

  53. I'm so excited for them, congrats. I found out about it just now. I have a question to lily and Ellie if they can find out, ( off topic), where do the duggar girls buy their undershirts? I try to dress modest too, but it's hard bc most if the undershirts that I buy are low and don't cover enough. It wld b nice to know. Thanks:)
