The Duggar family or popularly known as the stars of the "19 Kids & Counting" show welcomes its 20th member! Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar added their 20th child to their huge brood. However, there are questions of who's really caring for little Tyler. Is it really Jim Bob and Michelle, or is Janna acting as more as a parent?
Tyler Hutchins Joins The Massive Duggar Clan!
Tyler Wayne Hutchins was spotted celebrating with the massive Duggar clan on Thanksgiving, prompting talks about a possible addition to the "19 Kids & Counting" family. The Duggar family celebrated in an intimate cabin up in the Ozark Mountains with all the kids present, including the prodigal Josh, per previous reports. However, little Tyler easily stole the spotlight from Josh.
A report from ET confirms the 20th addition to the Duggar family. The court documents obtained by the online publication revealed that Jim Bob and Michelle were granted with temporary guardianship of Tyler after they filed an emergency petition last August. However, the Duggar family obtained permanent custody on November.
The mother of Tyler, Rachel Hutchins is currently unable to support his eight-year-old son and is under probation after a run-in with the law. Little Tyler is actually Michelle's great-nephew. After living with the Duggar family, insiders reveal that Tyler easily adjusted to life at the Duggar's Arkansas compound.
Jim Bob & Michelle Hands Over Tyler To Jana?
With their growing brood, Jim Bob and Michelle aren't expected to keep up with all of them. This prompted speculations that Jana may actually be like a sister mom to Tyler. An online publication previously reported that Jim Bob and Michelle are discouraging Jana from getting married.
"The 19 Kids & Counting" seemed to have depended a whole lot on Jana that the family may crumble if Jana leaves home. Jana mostly takes care of the young Duggars and keeps the house in order. In fact, she earned the nickname "Cinderella Duggar" because of her hard work in taking care of the Duggar household.
