Joy and Austin: Engaged!

[luxfilia]

I actually would have loved to have been proposed to while riding horses. Side note.

2. I predict Joy will have social media and maybe a wedding registry. I think the lack of social media "hurt" Jinger.

 

i think she'll go the jinger route - she could have already had one when she started courting, so why start now? also austin appears to have deleted his instagram since duggarfam is no longer following him (unless i'm dreaming and he never had one?)

[FaithAndReason]

With Joy getting engaged--- besides Jana, JB is out of daughters  to marry off for the show ratings (for a few years) now, right?  It'll be interesting to see what he does? Will Jana finally find someone or will the sons suddenly become financially independent enough to warrant marriages?

THIS just made my crappy day so much better!!!

I really feel sorry for Joy.  Just turned 19 and already engaged.  Her older sisters were 23, 21 and 22 when they got married.  Me thinks Joy was about to run and Boob and Mullet had to do something about it.

He had one. It was something like @Austin4site

[AnnaRuk09]

Austin didn't delete his Instagram and the Duggar fam is currently following him. The account used to be called @Austin4site but for some reason changed it to @fly4jesus. He also changed the name on the account from Austin to Jimmy. Who knows why, probably to try to remain as private and hidden as possible.

I agree with this I just did a tiny bit of googling and it resulted in going right to "jimmys" profile.

Makes me uncomfortable though so that's all I'll say about an account trying to remain private.

James might be his middle name, and we know he's a pilot. Makes sense.

His full name is Austin Martyn Forsyth. And yes I have stalking problems lol

[Pasta]

Is Martyn pronounced like mar-teen or Mar-tin ? Why do fundies use trendy spelling??

[Bad Wolf]

Well, I'm glad the little girls got to have some fun horse back riding.

Saw the new video.... I still can't believe Joy will probably be a teen bride! Yes, Jessa was 21 when she got married, but she was only days shy of her 22nd birthday.

Despite all the age controversy, I think they look good together and make a beautiful couple. But why not wait another 2-3 years?

the sooner she can start popping out blessings the more blessings she'll have. 2-3 years...thats 2 blessings right there. Holding her back from that would be going against god, lol.

They might be by then.  And you know a 19 year old has so much wisdom to impart  after being married a week.

Hell, Lauren Mickler nee Chapman was giving marriage advice on keeping fresh for your husband when she was like...16.

I couldn't imagine going to a marriage retreat and having to hear an unmarried 19 year old in a cult speak.

Well, it's not as if the people who attend this retreat aren't in the same boat...

[RabbitKM]

Fuckity fuck. Joy why did you have to go and get engaged?!?! You're still a baby. UGH. 

[Mela99]

Maybe mom and pop Forsyth are secret car lovers ? Austin Martin sounds a lot like Aston Marten ...

@Kira   In what way did it hurt her?

I just wonder if fans/viewers would've been more interested in Jinger and Jeremy's story  if she had social media . I know  some tv shows require their stars to get social media.

@picklepizzaswhen did Jill and Jessa get on social media? We're they engaged or courting?

They were engaged (well in Jill's case) and almost engaged in Jessa's case, that way they could get their new name vs Duggar, no changing necessary. 

She could be getting one anytime.

 

The only person that got an instagram account at courting was Josiah, but no name change happening there, so it's safer/easier.

Ben had massive social media while courting and people could relate to him that way. 

Yes he screwed it up  - but he had it and when he wasn't posting ravens and coffins he posted pictures.

ah ravens and coffins good times

there must be a reason that Jinger and Jeremy are radio silent - again- Jessa and Jill took off that burden

I have been thinking about your post for days.  I have to go on the team that Jinger and Jeremy were not that interesting to begin with.  They weren't the first, they weren't the second - they have a strange dynamic and they won't be the last.    

[Mela99]

Maybe Jinger and Jeremy legit didn't want the attention. Hence no SM and public registry. I think they put up with it to get the wedding.

[RabbitKM]

I just thought of something.. maybe the Dullards $24k is actually for the wedding?

This, Jinger is DULL AF, she can't make up her mind and just doe as she's told. Yes she makes funny faces and rolls her eyes but that does not make ones personality. she has no education, no social skills. Jeremy gets to mold her into what ever he wants, she's a blank slate with a nice little body and is somewhat attractive, when her make up is not caked on Duggar girl style.
