Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar will be welcoming another family member soon. According to reports, the "19 Kids and Counting" clan have a new addition on the way. Jim Bob and Michelle is planning to adopt a little boy by the end of the year.
According to In Touch Weekly, the public legal documents obtained from Benton County, Ark., revealed that Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are the temporary guardians of an 8-year-old boy. The boy is just a relative. His mom is Michelle Duggar's niece named Rachel Hutchins, who can't support the child financially.
According to reports, Rachel already gave up her child's custody to her mom, Michelle Duggar's sister Carolyn. Unfortunately, Carolyn suffered a stroke. Thus, the Duggars, Jim Bob and Michelle are on board to take the child's guardianship.
Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are set to return to court on Nov. 14 to make the guardianship permanent. The insider claimed that the Duggars are adopting the child.
However, for those wishing to see the 20th child of the "19 Kids and Counting" clan, you might be disappointed. According to the report, the Duggars want to take the child privately and have no plans on getting him on TV. The family can introduce the child on "Jill & Jessa: Counting On" should they wish to do it but keeping the child off cam is best.
Meanwhile, are the Duggars making the right decision to adding another child to their family? Everyone knows that the family is earning less and might be ousted in the small screens for good.
According to Morning News USA, the family is begging fans for financial aid. Although the Duggars have returned in the small screens via "Jill & Jessa: Counting On" the reality show cannot compare to the "19 Kids and Counting's" success.
Also, Jim Bob and Michelle are reportedly no longer happy with their marriage. Is adopting a child their solution to reigniting their marriage?
