Sweet Fellowship: Duggars and Friends (aka the Bates Family and Other Featured Families Thread)


Message added by Scarlett45

If a person/family was never featured on any of the Duggar shows, and is not related to the Duggar family by blood or marriage, they do not need to be discussed here..

We may all agree that David Rodriques is quite unfortunate looking, but let's refrain from comparing human beings to apes, its got way too much of a loaded history- please review the new Inclusion Policy updated May 1, 2022 , which details guidelines around discussing body type, capabilities, physical appearance etc. Additionally, using body size as an insult is not allowed.

No one should wear nearly head to toe mustard.  It's too difficult a color for most people and should be reserved for accents.  Is that a new wig or did she do her roots and add a hair piece or extensions?  

A new MLM?  Isn't that so Jill?  Plexus may have been something she has stuck with almost the longest of anything.  With her usual schedule of moving, shouldn't she be considering leaving the barndo soon?

I think that was another reason she dumped them.   Not only did she not get a cruise but other people were getting attention because they were actually famous, unlike Jill who just thinks she is famous.   In this new company she might be the most "known" person.   But yeah, she is done with Plexus because it did not bring her fame and fortune.

I think she is done with the Etsy boutique too.   It also didn't immediately give her the riches she feels she rightly deserves.   

Now its on to the next thing.   Which will also go the way of Plexus, the magazine, the singing CD, etc.   The only thing she sticks with consistently is the Women's Retreat.   Because she can design an entire conference around her.

I agree.  I also think that she somehow gets some sort of hotel kickback for the retreat.  Telling people not to register directly with the hotel sounds sketchy to me.

nah, she has people pay her the regular rate for the room then she pays the hotel the "conference" room rate and keeps the differennce.   the hotel is probably not in on it.   

I agree.  The "kickback" is coming from the attendees who are happy to have her handle all the arrangements and have no idea.

I guess we don't know for sure yet, but I'm going to laugh if Jill thinks she's "punishing" Plexus by quitting. You're right @merylinkid. She's looking for fame and fortune but will just be falling into another exploitive MLM trap. 

I'm already laughing about Jill's selling cleaning products, the kind of stuff Melaleuca specializes in. Jill doesn't lift a finger to clean the Barndo and never has. I hope they have something to cure her gut problems that miracle Plexus apparently didn't fix. 

Kaylee says she felt results after two whole days taking the vitamins. 🙄

And to think one simple Google search to see the room prices on the hotel's website could bring down Jill's one consistent source of income....

I can already picture Lazy Dave on his recliner ignoring his family, and Mahmo following the kids from room to room shrieking out orders but never lifting a finger to help pack.  Each kid maybe can fill one box with stuff that belongs exclusively to them while Jillpm’s clothes and teddy bears can fill a U Haul.  Not that kids need tons of stuff to be happy but the ratio of Jill’s clothes and belongings to those of her children is so disproportionate.  Every square inch covered with “decor”.  It makes me anxious just looking at the pictures.

I think Jill looks like a yellow marshmallow peep for Easter or a baby chick. It’s too yellow . And I don’t think Jill will wear that outfit for Easter.

That's marshmallow peep yellow for sure. However, the outfit is not for a holiday. It's Jill's idea of business attire!

Those boots suck.

Who else but Jill would wear those tacky plastic boots for a "business night out"? 

I suppose it all comes down to what type of business you're dressing for.

Tessie was the only one who looked OK. Kaylee had on some weird ruffled dress with a black modesty T-shirt, and a weird crocheted vest that didn’t seem to go with anything. Renee was trying to look cool and proper. But her hair up just looked awkward, as did her super long dress.

So did the Maxwells. They let Sarah move out and marry, and set their two other daughters to college. Christian college but still. I think one of them got married too.

I'm still shocked that Steve Maxwell, of all people, let go of his daughters.
