DUGGAR FAMILY CONTINUES TO GROW WITH NEW ADDITIONS TO THE FAMILY IN SEASON NINE OF "19 KIDS & COUNTING"
-- New Episodes Begin Airing Tuesday, February 17 on TLC -
(Los Angeles, Ca.) - The larger-than-life Duggar family is in for some exciting times this season on 19 KIDS & COUNTING. With new sons-in-law and new babies on the way, this supersized brood keeps on growing. Last season, Jim Bob and Michelle proudly gave Jill away to Derick Dillard. Now, Jill starts her life as a wife and the newlyweds quickly learn that they're expecting! The family also gets ready for a second Duggar daughter to say "I Do." This past November, viewers followed along with Jessa as she embarked on a scavenger hunt engagement planned perfectly by Ben Seewald. Viewers can keep up with the happy couple as the family prepares for another Duggar-sized wedding. 19 KIDS & COUNTING returns with all-new episodes airing Tuesdays beginning February 17 at 9 PM (ET/PT) on TLC.
This season, we follow Jill and Derick on their journey to parenthood from ultrasounds to birthing classes as the whole family excitedly awaits the arrival of Baby Dilly. And with any Duggar baby, there's always a special Duggar gender reveal involved. How will the couple break the news on whether the newest grand-Duggar will be a boy or a girl? And when Ben and Jessa decide to save money for a romantic honeymoon, it's all about pinching pennies on the wedding. With a guest list of over 1000 people, Jessa and Ben must plan their dream wedding on a shoestring budget. The DC-based Duggars are also loving life on the East Coast. With Marcus almost 2-years-old, Josh and Anna are considering growing their family as well. And there is plenty of big family fun back in Arkansas as Jim Bob and Michelle cherish each moment with the 17 kids still at home.
In the premiere episode, the family preps for Jessa's upcoming wedding to Ben with only two months to get everything done. From budgeting to bridesmaid attire, Jessa knows what she wants, but time is of the essence. And when the future Seewalds tour their soon-to-be home, a little mold may turn into a big problem. Then, catch up with Jill and Derick as they settle into their new life together. When the couple decides to host the youngest Duggar daughters for a fun-filled sleepover, they get a taste of what parenthood will really be like. And Jill and Derick share a life-changing announcement with her family.
19 KIDS & COUNTING is produced by Figure 8 Films for TLC.
