The Duggars continue to expand as Jeremiah Duggar and his wife, Hannah Duggar, prepare to welcome their third child.
“Life with our little girls has been wonderful and we are so excited about adding a third little girl to this group late next spring,” Jeremiah, 25, and Hannah, 29, shared in an Instagram post on Tuesday, December 24.
In the photo, Jeremiah held their daughter Brynley, 2, while Hannah carried their 10-month-old daughter Brielle. The expectant mother also held a pair of pink, knitted baby booties.
Several family members celebrated the news, including Jeremiah’s sister, Jessa Duggar, who commented with a heart-eye emoji on Instagram.
Hannah’s sibling, Alaythia Wissmann, commented, “The absolute BEST!!!! Can’t wait to meet her already!!!” Jeremiah and Hannah’s baby announcement comes less than a year after Brielle was born in February.
“Welcome to the world our dearest little Brielle Grace,” an Instagram post read. “You have already brought so much joy into our lives! We love you beyond what words can say and are SO very thankful for our two little girls.”
Brynley was born two years earlier, on Christmas Day, shortly after Jeremiah and Hannah’s wedding.
Jeremiah and Hannah started courting in October 2021, following the Duggar family’s tradition. It was confirmed in March 2022 that they tied the knot after a three-month engagement.
“Today was a perfect day, as we stood before our family and friends and committed our lives to each other,” the couple told Us Weekly about their wedding, which took place in Hannah’s home state of Nebraska. “It was such a beautiful culmination of so many prayers, dreams & desires! As we’ve seen God’s gracious hand in bringing our lives together, we are excited to see how He will continue to direct our paths.”
They added, “We are looking forward to sharing our married journey with you. Thank you for sharing our joy!”
Jeremiah and Hannah are not the only Duggars expecting. Jeremiah’s twin brother, Jedidiah Duggar, and his wife, Katey Duggar, are also expecting twins. The couple already shares a son, Truett, 2, and a daughter, Nora, 19 months.
“The twins are due on January 19; that’s when I’ll be 40 weeks,” Katey, 26, said in a YouTube vlog earlier this month. “Now, 50 percent of twins are delivered before 37 weeks. If I can make it past Christmas and the New Year, then, we’ll see. We’re talking to my doctor all the time about options — and whatever’s best for the babies.”
Jedidiah, 25, mentioned, “Jer and I would love to have another set of twins” born on their shared birthday, December 30.
