It just ended. He wouldn't choose her over Pastor Rick.

They are not together anymore, Pastor Rick has too strong of a hold.

That’s actually really sad.

Where did you glean this info from? Just curious because so far, no one of FJ has known them IRL. We usually have insiders pop up in every thread but never the Arndts.

If Luke has found a Cathy of his own then Rick has to approve.

Martha just posted pics from a wedding shower thrown in honor of Francessca Tuggle and Edwin Morton.. The wedding date will be Friday, April 8, according to an online registry.

The registry itself is interesting. Francessca seems to be less inclined towards the monochromatic home interior style of recent Morton brides. (Purple towels! Daisy printed bath mats!) There are also several sets of luggage included in the mix. I wonder where they plan to live, and what sorts of travel they anticipate? John and Campbell take multiple vacations per year, so I guess this shouldn't seem as odd to me as it does. My expectations are still based on the proto-Mortonkin lifestyle, I suppose.

[SolomonFundy]

Update: The date on the registry itself is June 4, though the link still says April 8. Based on the timing of the recent shower, I assume the 8th is the accurate date.

If anyone is interested in Jer and Hannah’s wedding pics, look at Emily Mitton’s Instagram. She’s their photographer. She’s the Bontrager photographer too.

I didn't realize that they had gotten married yet. Guess that's what happens when the show goes off the air.

Kressant Morton posted to IG that one of her younger brothers got married. I'm not sure which one. Is Yerik the oldest?

No he’s the youngest boy. It was Wally. It’s been a very long time since a Smith got married. I’m betting Bethany went and had to see her horrible parents. Kressant and Rachel had the excuse of living in a different country.

I had also forgotten that his twin is already married.

I hope not.

I wonder if the rest of of their children are now shunning the vile Bret and Jackie Smith. This post from last Christmas suggests no one is at home with them any more:

Jackie wish Madera a happy birthday recently and Madi responded that she loved her. And Jackie posted pics with the youngest boy graduating or completing some sort of program. So not all have cut them off.

It makes me very happy that these people have 10 children and not a single one wants to spend Christmas with them. Isn't karma great?

That was the last kid sent off to the Challenge Academy. The third of the adopted boys to do so, I believe. Maybe the fourth. 

When  they first posted that not so subtle begging for their kids to come see them I also though karma is a bitch. 

I don't think his graduation from punishment school and Madi saying she loves Jackie on Facebook equates to them not being cut off. I think all the kids have put boundaries in place. The only evidence I have of this is that none of them appear in any of Jackie's pictures anymore or in Bret's rambling screeds.

I think all have moved out and I’m so glad. But I think some still actually talk to Bret and Jackie while I’m almost positive there’s no contact with the 3 biological daughters.

It took a minute me to realize they not only mentioned their children, but also their children's spouses and ex-wife.

Yes and especially in Katie's case this is extremely disgusting.

Trace Bates and Lydia Romeike are engaged per his Instagram

Kenan Wilkes married Chloe Halbach today. It just seems strange when a Wilkes marries a non-Neely girl. But she is a red head. They have a type.

I'm thinking that Bethany and Danny DID skip Wallace's wedding. It's hard to say whether it was due to a preference to avoid her shitty parents, or necessity (Julia was born at home the very next day), but it's hard to imagine that she'd have avoided taking photos of the children if they were dressed for a wedding.

Danny's sister was married yesterday, and Bethany has posted several pics of the children dressed to attend, and playing with other kids at the wedding. (She also noted that Danny had to get all of the children ready by himself, and that he was a "hero" for doing so, and all of the wedding pics are cross posted from other accounts... hopefully she missed it for self-care rather than medical necessity.)  Wally has liked pretty much everything she posted on Instagram in the past couple of weeks, so presumably, they have an understanding. Wallace really does seem like a sweet person. It's kind of rare in fundymanland to see a guy posts pics of himself crying, and yet Wally did. (Seeing his bride for the first time, I think.)

[JermajestyDuggar]

I agree, she must’ve skipped the wedding. Maybe because if the baby. Arman definitely visits the nieces and nephews. There have been pics of him visiting. Wally seems completely wrapped up in his new love life so who knows if he visits Bethany much. 

[JermajestyDuggar]

It looks like Arman was the only sibling in the wedding party. None of the other boys were.

Rebekah Baird and Daniel Gill are engaged.
