10 Things You Didn’t Know about Jessa Duggar

Jessa Duggar is the fifth child in a family with 19 kids. She became a reality television star back in 2004 when she was only 12-years-old as her family’s family was portrayed on television. The world has been immensely curious about this family from the time they were first introduced. As a family with 19 kids and a belief that God only gives you what you can handle and does not want them to practice birth control of any sort, the family continued to grow in front of cameras. With the announcement that the oldest son in this very religious family was a child molester, a cheater and a liar, the family became even more popular than ever in 2015. Now that Jessa Duggar Seewald and her sister Jill have their own reality show, the world wants to know more about Jessa.

She loves travel

If there is one thing that Jessa Duggar loves about life, it’s the freedom to travels. She’s made it clear she wants to see the world, and she wants to do everything she can to make that happen before she’s got so many kids she cannot even bother with travel. While pregnant, she and her new husband traveled as much as they possibly could and really enjoyed their time together before their new baby was born.

She wants to adopt

She’s a first-time mother with a little boy who is only about 5-months-old, and she and her new husband are already looking to adopt more kids. Apparently, she wants a big family just like the rest of her family, and she is not afraid to have them now even when they are not of her own creation. It’s not something that anyone else in the family has ever done, but we don’t think they’d look down upon her for making this decision as they have a love of kids, and they do enjoy helping those in need.

She is adventurous

While some of the Duggar clan is not very adventurous in their way of life, Jessa seems to be a bit different. She likes to try new things, she likes adventure, and she loves to do things that no one else in her family is willing to do. She seems to be the one not quite like the rest. She’s made a lot of decisions in her life that have not necessarily been part of the family tradition, and we like to think that as she gets a bit older, she might just do the same with her own kids. We are just going to go ahead and say that we think she will be the one who does not raise her kids the same way her parents raised her.

She’s funny

When she was still pregnant with her son, she held up a tabloid of herself in the grocery store that told all about how she had so much delivery room drama. She captioned the photo of herself holding the magazine in one hand and her pregnant stomach in the other, “we were surprised to find out that #BabySeewald was already born last week!”. It’s good to know that she has a sense of humor and that she can enjoy the things that are said about her rather than reading too much into them and their potential meaning.

She loves football

While some women don’t care much for football, Jessa Duggar is a huge fan. She’s an Arkansas Razorback fan, and she loves to watch games and get into the spirit of football season. That makes her a true southern girl through and through, if you ask us.

She loves her sisters

It does not matter how many she might have, how many kids she might eventually have or what her life is like at the moment; Jessa Duggar Seewald is happy to be a sister to her brothers and sisters and she loves them. One of her favorite things to do is spend quality time with her siblings, especially her sisters, whenever she gets the chance.

She likes her privacy

Despite the fact that she is a reality television star and most of her life is spent on camera, she likes her privacy. She does not want all the details of her private life shared with the entire world, and Jessa Duggar is good about sharing what she wants the world to know and what she does not want the world to know.

She kissed in private

When she got her first kiss in life, she was with her husband. It was a sweet moment that I think they did a wonderful job with. In family tradition, she was not allowed to kiss her husband at any time in their courtship. They were able to kiss for the first time as husband and wife when they were finally married, and the wanted to share that moment in private. So, when they exchanged their vows and were pronounced husband and wife, they ran off to go make out in private. Their pastor explained that he would only need three hours of the wedding guests’ attention so that they could enjoy that moment off on their own. We love a pastor with jokes.

They named their baby after a minister

Spurgeon is the name of their baby boy, and Jessa Duggar explains that he shares his name with a minister that the couple feels plays a very big role in their lives and in the lives of their family. They chose the name as an honor to both him and their newborn son.

She doesn’t like tradition too much

Jessa Duggar did something awful just before her wedding and really upset her family. She’s not a fan of cake, so she didn’t want any. She wanted to have ice cream sundaes, instead, so that’s what the entire family had when they were celebrating her wedding. It was a huge issue in the family as they all wanted her to stick with tradition, but she said no.
