’19 Kids And Counting’ Season 9 Premiere: Jill Duggar Announces Her Pregnancy

Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard adjusted to being newlyweds and announced they were expecting a child on the season premiere of 19 Kids & Counting, while Jessa Duggar planned her impending wedding.

Jill And Derick Announce Their Pregnancy

In the ninth season premiere of 19 Kids & Counting, Jill and Derick updated viewers on their lives as newlyweds. The young couple admitted it was strange to go from holding hands and hugging to living together overnight, but were happily falling into a new routine as a married couple.

The episode also documented Jill and Derek’s pregnancy news. Jill and Derick found out they were pregnant barely one month after they said “I Do,” and the two appear to have had quite a bit of fun telling their families the news. “It’s still very surreal thinking that I’m pregnant…and now it’s me sharing an announcement that we’re expecting… usually it’s my mom or Anna,” Jill said on Tuesday night’s premiere.

Jessa And Ben

Meanwhile, Jessa and her fiancé Ben Seewald – the two have since been married – toured the home they were going to be moving into after their wedding.

Jessa and Ben’s wedding will be featured in season 9 of the popular TLC show, as will Jill’s pregnancy and the lives of all the other Duggar children. 19 Kids & Counting airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on TLC.
