Heartbreaking news!!! Counting On: This is what happened to Joseph and Kendra Duggar after the show ended. Tragedy after tragedy.
As of early 2026, Joseph and Kendra Duggar are living a notably private life in Arkansas, having fully stepped away from the spotlight following the end of Counting On. Once familiar faces on TLC, the couple has chosen a path focused on family, faith, and work—far from cameras and social media.
👨👩👧👦 A Growing Family Kept Out of the Public Eye
Joseph and Kendra are believed to have at least four children, though they no longer make official birth announcements:
-
Garrett David Duggar – born June 2018
-
Addison Renee Duggar – born November 2019
-
-
Brooklyn Praise Duggar – born February 2021
-
Justus Duggar – reportedly born around May or June 2022
The existence of their youngest child, Justus, was only confirmed through leaked family photos in 2023, rather than a public statement.
In late 2025, rumors began circulating that the couple may have welcomed or be expecting a fifth child, but no official confirmation has been made. As with much of their current life, Joseph and Kendra have chosen not to address the speculation.
🏠 Joseph’s Work: Real Estate and Construction
Joseph continues to support his family through traditional business ventures:
-
🏡 Real estate – He holds a real estate license and works in property sales.
-
🔨 House flipping – He is actively involved in renovating and reselling homes.
-
🚚 Commercial driver’s license (CDL) – He also assists with various real estate projects run by his father, Jim Bob Duggar.
Meanwhile, Kendra focuses primarily on raising their children and supporting Joseph behind the scenes.
📵 Stepping Away from Social Media
Since 2021, their joint Instagram account @littleduggarfamily has remained inactive. The couple:
-
Rarely appears in siblings’ YouTube videos
-
Avoids interviews
-
Does not share photos of their children publicly
-
Has no involvement in television projects
Sources believe their decision is driven by a desire to protect their children’s privacy and avoid the scrutiny that once surrounded the Duggar family.
✨ A Simpler Life After Reality TV
After growing up and starting their marriage in front of cameras, Joseph and Kendra now live a quieter life centered on:
✔ Family
✔ Faith
✔ Stable work
✔ Privacy
Though no longer part of the TLC world, they remain a subject of curiosity among longtime Counting On viewers—especially with ongoing speculation about a possible fifth child.
For now, one thing is clear:
Joseph and Kendra Duggar have chosen silence—and it appears to bring them peace.
