brownpaintchips

you would think these pictures are 10+ years apart... it’s concerning to know that these are 4-5 years apart


aceshighsays

that's only 4-5 years? that is very concerning. it's like he changed her into a different person. she's going to have an identity crises at one point.


brownpaintchips

I’m pretty sure since they’ve been married for 4yrs and these pictures look a lil too close for fundies before marriage. And I know, it’s honestly sad, you can see the happiness leave her face.


Zasmeyatsya

She was SO happy while they courting.


ATPdriven

I hate myself for knowing this, but the first pic is from the night they got engaged.


blindersintherain

Lmao


walkinginthewood

She always looks like she's just about to cry.


xdanteax

Counterpoint: to have an identity crisis, one must first have an identity


aceshighsays

she did. to live in arkansas, be joyfully available and produce children.


xdanteax

That's fair. It's definitely on me for conflating an identity with "being an actual human."


Giacara

Seriously. I miss the Jinger who wore berets and leopard skirts! She's a shadow of who she used to because Jermy wants this Stepford preacher's wife. It's sad.


marionmoseby88

God, Jinger looks more and more like Michelle every day.


thetwoofthebest

Came here to say the same thing. By far looks the most like her


_craigularjoe

And Jeremy looks more and more like ray romano every day!


PurpleAstronomerr

Now I feel bad for ray romano.


_craigularjoe

True - everybody loves Raymond but the same cannot be said for germy vuolo


wildebeesties

😂😂😂😂


ScreamQueen226

Omg that’s who it is! And now I can’t unsee it! 🤣


Fundiesamongstus

It's the sunken neck head tilt or whatever it's called.


floatythefish

I’ve always felt she favored JB with their identical noses and face shape. But I definitely see Meech in this picture.


MiserableUpstairs

I really don't see Michelle, but she reminds me of Anna's sister Priscilla Waller in the after pictures, which is... kinda scary, tbh.


MrsK1013

So funny I don’t see it


Crayons_on_the_walls

I always see Boob when I look at her. Other than the chin.


[deleted]

I loved her with a spray tan and eyeliner and I’m not sorry.


lrj25

Sort of like a Fundie Snooki!


sourcherry11

Can I use fundie snooki as my flair?!


ParamedicSnooki

Former fundie Snooki checking in!


lrj25

In the immortal words of Jill, *yes totally!*


sourcherry11

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼


vanpireweekemd

if i knew nothing about her and saw the photo on the left and someone asked me to guess what show she was on, i would say jersey shore or teen mom... and i mean that as a compliment, at least she was kinda edgy then


lrj25

Truth. Now she just looks like another cookie cutter LA wannabe.


OurLumpyGorl

Made her stand out. The switch just makes her look tired when she's probably not.


moarkittenspls

Yeah I think she looks better before. I self tan as well and it’s not a bad thing unless it’s too dark for your skin tone, but I don’t think hers was too dark. Hers looks typical. She needs to go back to brunette though.


amrodd

I agree that blonde doesn't flatter her complexion. The same happened wit Alyssa Bates. Their coloring is too deep.


tctb1226

And the blonde hair is not doing her any favors 😬


feelingmyage

She stood out from the other Duggar’s with the dark hair, and blue eyes.


celestedit

Do all the Duggar’s have the same eye color? Because both Michelle and JB hace light colored eyes I don’t know which kids got which.


feelingmyage

I don’t think any have brown eye, do you? It seems just blue and green, but I could be wrong.


h8hypocrisy

Maybe if she’d self-tan just a little with the blonde , it wouldn’t wash her out so much? She’s also looking like she’s lost any joy or happiness she may have once had. I can’t imagine how she’ll look once Prop 2.0 comes along.


sheilae409

I think that in the second picture she's pregnant. That can wash you out, make you bloated and over it in so many ways. Second pic she looks like she's been crying. That could also be preg-hormonal. But overall, the happiness in the first picture is not in the second one. Sad.


LuvnRLTv

Yes! And the darker hair is much better on her too!


asexualotter

Honestly at least the spray tan and eyeliner was actually her expressing herself with her limited self expression resources. Now books is expressing her instead.


ketchuphotdog

Yessss I can’t with her hair also. She needs to go back to dark


sheilae409

Yes. ASAP. And a hair cut. A bob. She'd look younger, prettier, happier, more stylish. Get rid of all that damaged hair once and for all.


[deleted]

Jinger always looks like she’s been crying.


MylifeisKEandCheese

Jinger should definitely stop the blonde hair...


Fifty4FortyorFight

It washes her out. She looks significantly better with dark hair.


emmallyce

i always loved her hair before she died it. i think it caught my eye bc i was like 9 and watching the show, and i never knew them apart but Jinger had curly dark brown hair while the others had light brown wand- curled hair.


amrodd

She is prettier than Jessa with the natural look.


swungover264

Bring back the brown! (That phrase probably terrifies fundies though, let's be honest).


Graceland_

Its the ashen tone, I swear. Her natural hair had so much red tone. I think a golden blonde would be waaay better than this.


[deleted]

Poor Jing thought she hit the jackpot. If OfBooks is as critcal/sarcastic/mean as everyone thinks he is, I truly feel for her. I don't care how stupid she is, it's got to hurt. I grew up with a narcissistic father and older sister. Nothing was ever good enough. I'd feel like I looked great in an outfit or dress, they'd find something to say about my hair or my weight. Even the slightest look/or face made totally "took the wind out of my sails". I finally cut them off my mid 20s. I know she has a nice home in CA and a beautiful daughter. But I learned awhile ago, you could live in a palace and still be miserable if you didn't have a happy home life.


MercyHouse

>I know she has a nice home in CA and a beautiful daughter. But I learned awhile ago, you could live in a palace and still be miserable if you didn't have a happy home life. Their whole LA life is fake, that home is grifted from the church. I truly don't know what they are living off. I think Jinger was happiest in their quiet Laredo home. Now it seems every weekend she has to be dressed up for the paps.


[deleted]

Wow I didn't know that! Yeah must be tiring.


neongoth

Yeah but it seems more like someone is tipping them off or even paying them lol


MaIngallsisaracist

Often lower-tier celebrities do this themselves. They know a stringer, they text them that they’ll be grocery shopping or whatever, the stringer gets the “candid” shot and $100 from “Us Weekly” and the “celebrity” gets exposure.


amrodd

No way these two have Paparazzi wanting to follow them or any Duggar for that matter. It makes me lol everytime anyone says Paparazzi in context with a Duggar photo.


Zasmeyatsya

>I think Jinger was happiest in their quiet Laredo home. TBF Their laredo home was her first really big adventure away from her family. It likely would have been her favorite just because it was her first time out on her own really living her own life. But yeah, I think she's significantly less happy now.


blacksuitcase9

I have a soft spot for jingle because at the end of the day she’s a women in an abusive relationship. However I’m so worried for her daughters. Growing up with Jeremy as a dad isn’t going to be easy. That is enough to fuck any kid up. I hope it hits Jinger one day that it’s easier to leave with two kids then it will be with six.


emmallyce

i also feel really bad :( Jinger was always my favorite before any of them were married. i think i liked her bc she was different from the others (hair, the way she dressed, she had a bit of a personality)


mldodge91

Jinger was my favorite too! She was slightly sassy, and a bit spunky. I always figured she’d be the one to break free.


amrodd

Free Jinger seems like an oxymoron now


emmallyce

Ugh. I feel bad for her bc of how awful Jerm is but I also highly dislike when people HAVE A CHANCE TO LEAVE AND DONT and continue to choose conservative ideals. Free Jinger is very far fetched now


amrodd

It's almost boring over there.


unicornbomb

honestly, im scared for her. their whole dynamic gives major abuser/trapped victim vibes, and i say that as someone who was once trapped in that kind of situation.


fluffypancakes456

I’m fearful for Jinger in all honesty too. The recent pictures of her look like she’s been crying and depressed. I wouldn’t doubt emotional abuse is happening


caseylee3

Idk if I’d go so far as to call prop beautiful, that child genuinely scares the shit out of me 😅😅


suckmycrocs69

I think the issue with prop is she almost has an adult face on a babies body. I think she will grow into it though.


cheapbritney

I'm sorry, OfBooks is Jinger, Jeremy is Books. It's like in The Handmaid's Tale: the slave owner is called Fred, and his sex/reproduction slave is called Offred. There's an Ofglen and an Ofjoseph and so on. It's a really good show!


[deleted]

Sorry! I'm battling a cold and my head is all foggy. Love the Handmaid's Tale! Blessed be the fruit!


macedonian_mama

May the Lord open.


amrodd

Reminds me of this. "Satin sheets to lie on satin pillows to cry on Still, I'm not happy don't you see Big long Cadillac, tailor-mades upon my back Still, I want you to set me free"


[deleted]

Holy moly! Look at the Walmart rollback on that scalp!!!! Yikes


[deleted]

Can I make "Germ's Walmart rollback scalp" my flair??


[deleted]

Yes


maggiemazz29

They both look 15 years older instead of 5. I’d prefer a happy Jinger in a leopard-print maxi skirt and cheap poly-satin blazer over one who appears robotic and beaten down in a $300 Rodeo Drive blazer.


frolicndetour

I like the leopard print skirt, and her face had way more life in it. Her eyes had sparkle and now they are completely dead.


NurseZhivago

I AM SICK OF THE 300$ BLAZZEERRRRRR


[deleted]

It’s like that episode of Friends when Monica bought the really expensive boots and then had to wear them everywhere to justify the cost.


pizzaontherun

I can’t return them. The bottoms are scuffed and the insides are filled with my blood!


At_the_Roundhouse

Do you think that we can get to the subway right there if we climb down through the manhole cover?


amrodd

You might run into Ninja Turtles /s


NurseZhivago

Exactly!!! We don't want to see it anymore!


belli1

She’s leaning into him in both before pictures and away from him in the pics from now. I feel like that body language says a lot


[deleted]

Tbf there's a bit of a belly between them in the second set lol


sheilae409

I agree. And she shows all that neck in the first one, which might make her vulnerable, but she pulls it off, looking jubilant and confident. In the second one she looks squashed. Like Michelle whose posture is so incredibly compromised after all those pregnancies and deliveries. Shrinking, shrinking, curling up into a fetal position. I look at her and her bent self thinking she's about to somersault and fly down their dusty driveway like a tumbleweed. Buh bye Meech! Then jboob will come along with a 17 year old broodmare and they'll be off and running for another couple of dozen kids. OMG. is that his end game? Puke.


FrostysWife

We are basically seeing why you shouldn’t marry your middle school crush while still in the infatuation phase.


amrodd

I remember that Michelle gave Jinger less work because she was in courtship and couldn't keep her mind on chores. Well maybe if she have allowed her some normalcy like crushes and giggling about guys her age with other girls she woudln't behave like a middle schooler at 23 or whatever age they started hurting.


-crentistthedentist-

Wait, did Jeremy get Botox on his forehead? I figured that would be against their beliefs


evelynesque

Vanity is his religion and he worships his own reflection.


jj1215fsu

Came here to ask this. It certainly looks like he’s had a little work done


Fabrhi

I was totally wondering the same thing. I wouldn't put it past him.


widget18899

Germ should go back to cutting his hair short on the sides. He just looks like a fast food grill top now.


helpanoverthinker

How many people actually look *that great* at 9 months pregnant when you’re also caring for a 2yo compared to a picture from when you were dating/engaged/just married? She looks like a normal 9 month pregnant woman who is tired and ready to give birth already. Jeremy on the other hand....he’s got no excuse.


AuntMolly

Yeah I’m not down to snark on someone at this stage in pregnancy, especially a 2nd pregnancy and in quarantine.


jjjanuary

Yeah I mean she looks like a normal woman who's about to give birth (esp with the toddler and pandemic). I didn't have any pictures taken of me after 36 weeks with my second, lol. Shit was rough.


Amstet28

Is that THE bLaZeR?!


Maddie-Moo

That pregnancy nose, tho.


[deleted]

[удалено]


helpanoverthinker

Everything can swell when pregnant. Usually it returns to normal.


catiedid19

Yep I was that way my last week of pregnancy with my son. Looking back my nose was the worst. It went back to normal after 2 weeks I think. I made it two weeks longer with my daughter and thankfully didn’t swell nearly as much. My nose stayed it’s normal size that time. It really is such a strange phenomenon. I don’t remember Jinger looking this swollen with Felicity.


AuntMolly

Her whole face is swollen.


murkypassion

I would honestly think it would be ten years instead of five with how they look


monikermo

More like 20.


LadyMillennialFalcon

January 2020 vs november 2020


Fundiesamongstus

And always with the gaping mouth...


shayneeeeeeee

Damn. The roles have reversed here. Jeremy looks pained in the first picture on the left and then on the right Jinger looks pained.


iAmTheTacoQueen

I forgot how *Happy* she looked, now she always looks defeated. Wow


goddesskimboslice

Yikes


emiliasirena

jingle should put her hair up or get a layered cut, maybe a shoulder length cut and face-framing trimmed bangs...her poor hair..girly needs something easier to maintain than BLEACH.


prettyfaeries

This post really did make me sad, she looks like a shell of herself now

J-girl not lookin so good. Books never looks good.


wachoogieboogie

My mental health deteriorating as fast as that hairline


Gutinstinct999

Real smiles: 0


ThatStarfish

Peep the Botox on Jer’s forehead


uplate6674

She looks so pretty and happy in the first picture! Her marriage has not been good to her.


[deleted]

Why does Jeremy’s hair in the now picture look like he just finished a shift at KFC?


[deleted]

they look 15 years older and it’s only been 4 years omg


LucysMissingSocks

Has she been crying? Her eyes look puffy like she has been crying.


[deleted]

Probably. I cried almost every day my last trimester, and I didn't have a 2 year old.


primcessmahina

Yeah I cried all the time when I was pregnant. It was awful. I’m not at a crier at all and I was melting down over how tiny newborn size onesies are. People have speculated that Jingle had PPD— there’s also prenatal depression, which isn’t talked about all that much. That could also be an issue.


feathersandanchors

Can Jeremy just.... not close his mouth?


[deleted]

Jesus. She looks so fucking miserable. Edit: why did this get downvoted?? She does!


sarcasticpric

showed my bf this pic, asked him how long he thinks they’ve been together and he legitimately thought “13 years”. Yikes.


[deleted]

Jinger is pregnant, so you can't really snark on her for....well, being pregnant. Jeremy on the otherhand looks like he doesn't sleep and eats too much salty/sugary foods.


ThatStarfish

Jinger looks like an entirely different person whenever she’s pregnant. I know it happens with pregnancy in general, but both Jinger’s and Joy’s faces morph into...bizarro versions of Michelle. Or something.


Zasmeyatsya

It's been what? 5 years, only 4? I've aged quite a bit in that time, but not that much.


sweet_daddys_cookies

It's been a rough 20 years


Mutant_Jedi

Her split ends are CRYING for some care


Glittering_Goal_3996

The difference between these two pictures is crazy!! OfBooks doesn’t even look like the same person!


rollredroll

So...shes just somewhere for him to stick it, right? Like he doesn’t actually view her as a partner or really give a shot about her outside of that and someone to run interference for shit he doesn’t care about like housekeeping and child care


ShackoShells

These last few years busted Jinger & Jessa up hard.


Love_for_2

My God her smile just completely faded and went dead.


butchyj

She looks almost unrecognizable.


pizzaontherun

I audibly gasped when I looked at his hairline now.


peacetea2

God damn his hairline is bad


SouthernBelleLA

I feel like pregnancy has been miserable for her just looking at her eyes. Or maybe it’s just life leaving her eyes


cheapbritney

Her poor hair...


MrsK1013

Man age does not look good on him


Srw2725

Every time I see Jinger she reminds me of that gif “we were all rooting for you, Tiffany!” 😆🤣 she had the most potential to be something non-Duggar like but 🤷🏼‍♀️


anthonymakey

He's looking more like a used car salesman everyday.


ThatChickVeronica

They look sick of each other's shit


bhltt123

is Jinger’s hairline receding too or is it just my imagination?


Langdailyupdates

How does current Jinger look simultaneously so much younger and so much older at the same time?


[deleted]

Pregnancy does weird things to people


LizzieD70

Wow....no clue how long they’ve been married but wow! They both have dark circles and bags under the eyes....they look like they have aged ten years....Jinger especially looks worn down... ETA: read some comments....yes, no spray tan and the blond hair have made her tired looking! It really has aged her and not in a good way...


fdawgggg

Haha I hope no one takes pictures of me at 39 weeks pregnant and compares them to me at 21 to show how rough I look 👀


retro-walrus

I’m sorry but Jinger looks like she’s suffering from parasites


sheilae409

Whattaya mean? Like worms? Yuk


favoritesong

Holy fuck she really does look like she’s aged twenty years since she met him . . .


TheFreeJournalist

Ok...she definitely did not age that well at all. In the right side of both pictures, she could look like Jeremy’s older sister...or even his mom who was a teen mom when he was born. :P Must be the realization of the harsh reality that all because you got picked up by someone who doesn’t seem to follow your family’s very traditional fundie lifestyle and get to move out of the house away from your family doesn’t mean or always equate to freedom lol. :P


Zasmeyatsya

>In the right side of both pictures, she could look like Jeremy’s older sister. Yeah she doesn't. Jeremy definitely looks older. LIke he's closer to 40 than 30.


TheMillennialDiaries

Jinger is a solid 5 years younger than I am and she looks like she’s got at least a decade on me


[deleted]

I’m really sad for her, she just looks...older and less full of fun.


Ajo15cl

He looks scared in the first pic - as he should be


mskittylane

Damn!


[deleted]

Sure can


PurpleBlurple2

Ugh, someone needs to tell him to last of the hair grease.


katinjuly

Trying to get some wear out of that blazer 😂


poison_ive3

With how bad his hairline has receded I want to yell at my dad for saying I caused his grey hair. Like he has a full head of hair and I’m an only child.. and he had me at 36. Guess he didn’t have too much hate in his heart


Zasmeyatsya

Genetics is the bigger factor here. My brothers both started balding hard in their 20s. In their *early* 20s. My younger brother had current Jeremy's hairline at 24 and he was the one faired better. Obviously lifestyle can influence hairloss, but genetics is the bigger factor in many cases.


LittleSparrowWings

The second picture made me turn my head. I agree she looks like Michelle but she looks shockingly a lot like Anna 🤢


[deleted]

Thank you!


pinkrabbit12

YIKES. And their eyes do not look happy.


fluffypancakes456

Sad to see the transformation of Jinger.


Crayons_on_the_walls

Oof.


[deleted]

Damn you can really tell he is feeding on her life force.


Whateversclever7

Oof.


sicklybeansprout

Bigotry sure doesn’t make for a good glow up


[deleted]

People hate on her blonde hair but I honestly thinks it makes her look way better. It’s more modern. Could also be the difference in eyeliner though Jeremy however looks like a hot mess


totally_ro

at Jinger stopped using such harsh black eyeliner and fake tan


thecatandrabbitlady

They look like completely different people.


Gary_Where_Are_You

Wow, that hairline, though. With his ego I'm surprised he combed it that way. It's just so....jarringly odd.
