With the Duggar family spending special moments at the wedding of Jinger and Jeremy Vuolo last November 5, viewers of ‘Counting On’ season 2 are wondering whether eldest Duggar son, Josh, will finally appear in the wedding special episode to be aired on TLC.

Attending the event with his wife Anna, Josh was spotted as he gave the cameras a big smile during his sister’s big day.

Last month, Josh and Anna’s marriage was rumored to be on the rocks with the mother-of-four reportedly planning to file for divorce after her husband’s stint at the rehab.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s eldest son had been involved in a molestation scandal as well as controversies relating to cheating and porn addiction.

"She will see a lawyer in the next few weeks to have divorce papers drawn up so she can rid herself of Josh," an insider told In Touch Weekly.

The 28-year-old former reality TV star’s appearance at Jinger’s wedding was deemed a rare public attendance; nonetheless, according to reports, Josh and Anna “seemed happy” with each other.

"He had his arm around her. They were talking and smiling," a source stated to Us Weekly. The couple's marriage had undergone a rough patch in 2015, when Josh’s acts of unfaithfulness to his wife were revealed.

Meanwhile, Jinger and Jeremy’s wedding ceremony in Arkansas will be aired as a special episode on ‘Counting On season 2, which is set to air on November 15, Tuesday, on TLC.

"We are married! We are so thankful to God, our parents and our wonderful families and friends for celebrating this day with us and for helping us arrive at this moment in time,” the couple posted on their website. “We love that we now are beginning our lives together as one, before God.”

Jinger’s parents have also spoken up about their own marriage. Jim Bob and Michelle have responded to the rumors that they are filing for a divorce after 32 years of being married, 19 children as well as six grandchildren.

The Duggar folks also debunked these divorce rumors by showing up together at their daughter’s wedding. They also made it clear to fans that there will be no drama regarding a separation if ‘Counting On’ is renewed for a third season.

On November 12, Jim Bob and Michelle took to social media and tweeted a photo of themselves exchanging a kiss and holding a copy of the In Touch Weekly’s latest issue.

According to the magazine, details will be revealed as to “what finally tore them apart,” claiming that the Duggar couple are also up for a “secret court battle.”

“Don’t believe everything you read in the tabloids! Michelle and I have been married for over 32 years and are more in love than ever!” Jim Bob wrote on the Duggars’ Twitter page.
