Not much positive update has been reported about the Duggar family ever since the Josh Duggar sex scandal broke more than two months ago.
TLC earlier announced that it decided to cancel "19 Kids And Counting" in the wake of the Josh Duggar scandal, causing the family to lose big bucks from the show.
Aside from financial issues, the demise of "19 Kids And Counting" and the sex scandal may have also stunted the younger Duggar siblings' shot at fame. Now that the show is defunct, there's a slim chance that the younger Duggars would be known individually as well as their oldest brother Josh, and elder sisters Jana, Jill, and Jessa.
According to the lastest Duggar update reported by Inquisitr, the family spent the weekend in the celebration of Michael Bates and Brandon Keilen's wedding. However, it seemed that Josh Duggar was purportedly not included in any of the social media posts of those who were at the wedding, sparking rumors that it's either he chose not to come, or everybody decided not to include him in their social media updates.
"Michael Bates' wedding was filmed for her family's UPtv reality series, Bringing Up Bates," the website wrote.
"It's possible that the show's producers didn't want Josh Duggar to come because his presence would cause controversy, or perhaps Josh decided to skip the wedding because he wasn't ready to face a large group of people after making his shocking sexual molestation confession - he would have been uncomfortable, and some of the people around him would have been uncomfortable."
Meanwhile, Us Magazine also published a story about another Duggar family update. According to the report, Jill Duggar Dillard and her husband Derick Dillard, who are now based in Central America for a religious mission, brought Joy Anna Duggar with them after their weekend at the Bates.
Is Joy Anna choosing to leave Arkansas thinking that there might not be much left for her career at home after the Josh Duggar scandal?
"It's not clear if Joy is spending a significant amount of time with the Dillards in Central America or if she's just making a short trip," the report said.
