’19 Kids & Counting’ News 2015: Jill And Jessa Duggar Spin-Off Still In The Works Despite Sexual Abuse Scandal? [VIDEO]
It looks as though the Duggar family is doing anything they can to stay on the air, despite reports that say Josh Duggar allegedly sexually abused five young girls when he was a teenager back in 2002, with four of those girls rumored to be his sisters. There's a new report that says Jill and Jessa's planned spin-off show about their married lives and pregnancies is still in the pipeline even though fans are urging TLC to pull the plug on their family's reality show, 19 Kids & Counting.
According to Gossip Cop on Wednesday, the network is hoping to bring in a large audience that would tune in to see a behind-the-scenes look at Jessa and Jill's lives. Jill married her husband Derick Dillard in a lavish ceremony back in June of last year while Jessa tied the knot to Ben Seewald back in November. Jill and Derick welcomed their first child, Israel David Dillard, in April while Jessa is currently pregnant with her first child.
So far, TLC is refusing to comment about the spin-off rumors. The Duggar family has also been very quiet on their social media accounts since news broke about Josh Duggar's sexual molestation case.

According to TMZ on Friday, the family was scheduled to appear on Oprah back in 2006. It was only until someone sent an anonymous email to Oprah warning that Josh had previously molested young girls - by touching their breasts and sexual organs while they slept - that the media mogul forwarded the email to a hotline, which triggered a police investigation.
Fans are speculating that Jana, Jill and Jessa may or may not have been the victims, as they were adolescent girls at the time.
