It's good seeing more kisses & snuggles. Nine years ago I never would have guessed we'd see such affection from certain fundies.

I don’t think this obviously needs to be said but Nathan Bates and Esther Keyes  were married on Friday.

Wow, looks like it was quite the production. Is her family wealthy?

The website says that it could be up to 12,000 dollars for just the venue. I don't know what areas they used though

I don’t think so. She comes from a family with 14 kids. That would make anyone poor 😂

I’m guessing BUB threw in a few bucks. And they may have gotten a discount for advertising.

Whoa! There's a youngest unmarried Botkin son? How old is he?

I'd be curious how the soon to be married Botkin son met his intended.  

And how will the youngest meet his future wife?  I assume he also works at T-Rex Arms and does he still live with Mom, Dad and the Botkinetti?

Hannah Wissman and Jeremiah Duggar are official.

And FJ has known it for months. They will be engaged by Thanksgiving.

But an engaged Katie Bates has to wait until December before we actually see Travis rest a hand on her shoulder longer than a second 🙄. Sorry for changing the subject.

I still wonder why we haven’t heard anything from Susanna and Logan. Neither of them are in the public eye like Jed, I don’t see why they’d have to hide. I guess they could just close friends, but I don’t think so at this point.

Hannah and Jer look really happy and comfortable with each other.

I think they are seeing each other. Maybe Logan wants to stay out of the spotlight since his sister had a baby outside of marriage with a guy that then died in a motorcycle crash. Maybe that’s enough attention for his taste.

If it gets serious, there will be some kind of announcement.

The Wissmanns have announced EVERY "special friend" for every child so far, usually not long before actually getting engaged. If an engagement is imminent, it will come. If not, we'll probably never hear about it.

Except Nate. He’s been with his girlfriend awhile. He’s so young, I doubt they will make it. I bet they will eventually break up.

TIL Nate had a girlfriend. I've never heard any Wissman talk about her and I don't even remember seeing her in pictures. She's either really really private or (more likely) you are right and this relationship will hit the rocks (if it hasn't already)

He’s talked about her on Instagram. And posted pics with her. He hasn’t tried to hide it like Hannah.

Someone got a screen shot of lawson’s GF with a shiny new ring. It’s on Duggar data for those interested.

Yeah because they are not anywhere close to getting engaged. It's only when engagement is imminent. I agree with you, I don't think they're gonna make it. The social media and blogs will never have any record of this relationship and they'll pretend it never existed.

Nate just turned 20 and Wissmanns don’t normally get married that young. Some are even in their 30s when they marry. I will be shocked if those two marry.

Plus, as I've mentioned before, Nate doesn't exactly come across as super bright or mature (judging from his social media presence), and I think his family is aware of that on some level. So maybe they're just turning a blind eye for now, waiting for it to pass so they can set him up with a suitable fundie maiden of their choice.
