CAST: Austin and Joy-Anna Forsyth are on their honeymoon when the show picks up for season 7. Joe Duggar is courting a new girl named Kendra Caldwell and the two are posing for their engagement photos in the most respectful way possible on the premiere as well. At the same time Jinger and Jeremy Vuolo are getting help from their siblings as they move into their new place. Jessa Seewald and her husband Ben are also a big part of the show this season as well. Everyone except for the Seewalds are currently pregnant or recently had a baby.
For Joy-Anna Duggar and Austin Forsyth, their honeymoon is the first time that the two have been unchaperoned, alone together. Though they admit to missing their chaperones, Forsyth told the cameras, “Now that were finally married and we don’t have a chaperone, it is a lot different. It is pretty cool that we can just go places on our own and we don’t have to have someone watching us. It is pretty amazing.” According to Us Weekly, the couple recently welcomed a baby boy named Gideon Martyn Forsyth on Friday, February 23, 2018.
Also on the premiere of the show, when Jinger’s siblings come over to her house, sister Jessa Seewald says that, “When we arrived at Jinger and Jeremy’s new house, they had painters there repainting the whole house and it was really coming together. But as we started to walk through the rooms, we came to the kitchen and we thought, this room needs some help.” So, it sounds like they have a lot in store when it comes to getting their house together.
