TLC viewers first met the Duggar family in 2008 with their show 17 Kids and Counting. The series followed the Arkansas family Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar as they navigated raising 17 kids. The show was later rebranded as 19 Kids and Counting after the couple had two more children.
Viewers continued watching the children grow up on Counting On, which focused mainly on Jessa and Jill Duggar. Many of the kids followed their parents’ footsteps in having huge families. Jessa Duggar recently gave birth to her sixth child.
