Earlier in February, the TV star revealed she suffered a miscarriage while pregnant with their fifth child. She shared the heartbreaking news in a video titled “Heartbreak Over The Holidays” on her YouTube and gave viewers an insight into her pregnancy journey.
The clip begins with a heartwarming moment when the TV personality and her husband tell their children about the pregnancy. The footage transitions through unexpected moments that lead to sad news, including an 11-week update.
However, the mother of four scheduled an ultrasound with her doctor to confirm if the baby was healthy. Unfortunately, the doctor told her the baby didn’t “look good,” and the revelation left her heartbroken.
After that, the loving mother underwent a dilation and curettage procedure, removing the baby. Although the process took an emotional toll on the TLC star, she found solace in her Christian faith.
Jill Duggar Reveals She’s Hesitant to Spill Her Family’s Dirty Secrets
The news of Jessa’s pregnancy is certainly a source of joy for the Duggar family amid the publicity of their dirty secret in the docuseries “Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets.” Jill Duggar, the parent’s second daughter, who stars in the series, previously revealed that she was hesitant to show her family’s dirty side.
In a sneak peek of the four-part series, the media personality gets candid about her tough decision. “I mean, interviewing this is not easy, and I don’t want to do it,” said the “19 and Counting” alumni nervously. “There’s a lot there; like, do I want to open that can of worms?”

The Duggars are loyal followers of the conservative Christian organization, Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP), founded by disgraced pastor Bill Gothard. Despite second thoughts, the TLC alum shared stories about her family and her organization, dating back to 2014.
In 2014, Gothard resigned from IBLP after a former employee accused him of sexual harassment. The scandal coincides with the tragedy of Duggar’s eldest son, Josh, who was jailed in 2022 for receiving and possessing child pornography.
Additionally, Josh was previously guilty of inappropriately touching his four younger sisters and a nanny during his teenage years. The Premier Video Series promises to explain how IBLP teachings create a “breeding ground” for predators.
The 32-year-old writer went on to emphasize how difficult it was for her to open up. “It was hard to go through,” Jill admitted emotionally. “There are many families who are in the same situation. But it was very different, in the sense that my family was on television.
