It’s a Duggar Kiss-a-thon! Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Get in on the Act
Now “19 Kids and Counting” stars Jill Duggar and husband Derick Dillard have accepted the kissing challenge issued by Jill's parents, Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar, by posting their own smooch.
Dillard also gushed on Twitter about his marriage, sharing scripture and tweeting how thankful he is to have Jill in his life. The two, who were married in June, are expecting their first child next year.
Jill and Derick were the latest to recreate newlyweds Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald's kissing photo, which received some criticism for its TMI effect.
Last week, in support of their daughter and the institution of marriage, Jim Bob and Michelle liplocked for the camera and challenged their Facebook fans to post happily married kissing shots.
The Duggar's call to action, however, received major backlash from the LBGTQ community when the Christian family reportedly deleted pics featuring same-sex couples.
