Josiah & Lauren New Clue At Arranged Marriage Surfaced?
Some Redditors discussed throwback photos from Josiah and Lauren Duggar’s wedding. The photo shows the couple’s first kiss. Josiah jokingly wiped his lips after kissing his wife while in front of her dad. However, Lauren’s father appears displeased by it, staring at Josiah and seemingly holding back. This made some Redditors speculate that the speculations about their arranged marriage are true.
- “Her dad always rubbed me the wrong way. Like a Jim Bob Duggar 2.0 kind of way. Its just creepy.”
- “He is wiping his mouth after the kiss, as a ‘joke’ I’m guessing. And Mr. Swanson is not pleased.”
- “No on will ever convince me this wasn’t an arranged marriage.”
- “No one will ever convince me he wasn’t repulsed by her. And she’s not repulsive. Just not who he’s attracted to.”
- “There was an article about it in one of the gossip rags, around the time they got married. It said Boob and Swanson arranged it, because both kids were difficult, emotional, and a bit rebellious. I think it’s pure luck that they get along well and the marriage seems to work.”
