Derick Dillard is in the news yet again but this time it is actually for something somewhat positive. This good news would be that this Duggar family member finally has a new job after being fired from the family’s TLC reality television series “Counting On” for making rather transphobic remarks about fellow TLC star Jazz Jennings online. Now, Dillard’s new job was quite a shock to many Duggar fans when he revealed it on his Instagram account a few days ago.
What is this new shocking job?
As mentioned above, Dillard on Instagram revealed to all of his followers that he has a brand new job and this job is to be a driver for a bunch of students.
Dillard will be driving these students around during a weekend of worship at the Student Leadership University’s Lift Tour 2018. When this Duggar family member decided to post on social media about his brand new job it was met with hateful comments because of Dillard’s past remarks toward the LGBTQ+ community.
For example, one fan wrote, “I hope you don’t spread your ignorance about trans people to those kids, remember WWJD.” One of the main reasons as to why people were getting annoyed online with Dillard in these comments was because he just recently invited members of the LGBTQ+ community to a shocking seminar. This obviously angered many Duggar fans online, which is why he is receiving so many hateful comments under an Instagram post about simply driving students around for a weekend of worship.
I have actually attached this Instagram post below so you can see with your own eyes what all of the fuss is about.
What is everybody else in the Duggar family up to?
If you have been following this family on social media, then you would obviously know that there are three Duggar babies on the way. The three Duggar women that are pregnant are Jinger, Joy-Anna, and their sister-in-law, Kendra Duggar.
It is actually worth mentioning that Kendra’s husband was actually in the news recently for supposedly never letting his wife speak. Some fans online think that Joseph never lets Kendra speak at all and they have always voiced their concern about this matter on social media. Nonetheless, if you want to keep up with all things related to this family, be sure to follow them on social media and watch their television series “Counting On.”
What do you think about Dillard finally getting a new job? Do you think he is turning a new leaf, or, is another controversy not far behind?
