If I told you that Jill Duggar and her husband, Derick Dillard, were in the news again for all the wrong reasons would you really be that surprised? Probably not. Well, the Duggar couple is in the news again, as they have come under fire for their lavish spending after they have been begging for money online for the past couple of months. In case you didn’t know, Dillard was actually kicked off the family’s TLC Reality Television Series “Counting On” after he made some rather transphobic comments toward fellow TLC star Jazz Jennings online. After Dillard was kicked off, his wife Jill also allegedly left the show, which means that the two are currently out of a job, which is why they are begging for money online.
Most of the information from this post comes from an article published by In Touch Weekly.
Why are fans angry at this controversial Duggar couple?
As mentioned above, fans are furious with this Duggar couple, as they have been caught spending their money on very lavish items, even though they have been online begging for money. For example, when Hurricane Harvey just hit Houston, Dillard decided to create a fundraiser for himself which many people saw as quite selfish, including the website hosting the fundraiser. This made the site shut down the fundraiser, as they too saw it as not only Dillard being incredibly selfish, but also stealing money from the victims of the tragic event. However, this wouldn’t be the only time he begged for money online, as a few months ago he asked for around $10,000 so he would have enough money to finish his ministry studies to become a minister.
Now, fans are angry with this Duggar pair asking for money, as recently Dillard uploaded a post on Instagram of him and his wife and in the post, Jill is wearing a pair of gold heels, and fans were furious with her not-so-modest attire. Here is an example of what one angry commenter wrote: “Stop being beggars, and people won't give a damn what type of shoes u [sic] wear.” I have attached the actual Instagram picture below so you can see exactly what all of this fuss is about.
It's important to point out that I don't know the exact price of the clothes that Jill Duggar purchased was, but the online fans were acting very upset about it.
What else is the Duggar family up to now?
The Duggar family have been very busy as of recently, as if you didn’t know their reality television series “Counting On” was just recently renewed for a brand new season, which they are allegedly filming for at the moment.
