The reality TV show Counting On used to be a pretty entertaining show. However, when the eldest Duggar son was caught in a child pornography scandal, things changed. That brought much hate from the audience to the Duggars. Hence, the producers had to shut down the show. Now, it looks like the family is running out of capital one by one. Shockingly, the Duggars have sold their family compound worth $46.4K. What’s more about it? Tune in with us to find out.
Duggar: Why Did The Duggars Sell Their Family Compound?
Even though the show has been canceled, the Duggers are still topping the headlines. That’s because Jim Bob has sold his family compound for 46.4K. TheSun has exclusively reported that the celebrity family has sold 5.80acres of their land to their neighbors. Further, a property line adjustment was filled by both parties before the sale. The audience feels that Jim Bob needed to arrange some capital for Josh, so they sold the land. Hence, there are speculations that the patriarch might be trying to make up for the lost income. More so, fans believe Jim Bob is paying Josh’s legal fee. That’s because the father supported his son by attending Josh’s final days of the trial.
On the contrary, previously, the family is losing an estimated amount close to $850,000 a year. Further, the family used to get paid $80K for the filming. Therefore, the family had earned around $850K per season. However, the family’s income shocked many fans. Also, the whole income went to Jim Bob. And he invested some of it for the family and handed out the rest. Moreover, the defense has officially run the Duggars dry.
Duggar: What’s On With Josh Duggar’s Situation?
Jim Bob’s son Josh Bob Duggar was arrested in 2021 for possession and receiving of child pornography. Hence, he is sentenced to 20 years in prison. Josh was then immediately taken into custody at the Washington County Jail. Furthermore, for his safety, he was placed in solitary confinement away from the other prisoners. However, Josh’s legal team has filed a motion for acquittal if the guilty verdict.
In contrast, the court papers also request a new trial. And if the court denies the motion, then his legal is asking to dismiss count two. However, the government is yet to respond to the request.

And that the family has grown in front of national television. The journey has been miraculous for them, and following God is an exciting adventure.
