More Signs That Jana Duggar Snubbed Jill Duggar at Her August 2024 Wedding Emerge
Jana Duggar has spent the months since her August 2024 wedding trying to monetize her special day. Her YouTube uploads have been plentiful, and while some Duggar followers have enjoyed seeing her wedding day come to life, the uploads have had an unintended side effect. Jana’s recent videos are being viewed as proof that she iced Jill Dillard out.
Jill Duggar was the only Duggar daughter not included in Jana Duggar’s wedding
When Jana Duggar released the first pictures of her wedding day, family followers quickly noticed something was amiss. Jill Dillard was not a member of the bridal party. Instead, she attended the wedding as a guest. When asked later by a fan why she was not a bridesmaid, Jill replied that she was unsure. She went on to say that it was entirely up to the bride who she wished to include in her special day.
Initially, it looked like Jill was not the only one left out. Both Josie Duggar and Jennifer Duggar did not appear in official photos either. Jana’s most recent YouTube upload revealed that Jennifer and Josie were included in the event, albeit not as bridesmaids. Instead, they appeared to have been tasked with managing the bevy of flower girls who were a part of Jana’s big day. They walked down the aisle with the tots. With Josie and Jennifer’s roles revealed it has become clear that Jill was the only Duggar sister who did not have an active role in Jana Duggar and Stephen Wissmann’s wedding.
Jill and Derick Dillard were seated away from the rest of the family, too
The bridal party snub isn’t the only issue. Aside from not being a part of the bridal party, it appears that Jill and her family were an afterthought at the big event, too. While several of her siblings were included in the wedding, Jana had 10 brothers and some of their spouses who did not have an active role. As is traditional, they were seated in the first few rows for the ceremony. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar were sitting with some of their children in the front row. Several adult Duggars were sitting close by in the second row.
Jill and Derick Dillard were the only Duggar couple not seated in the first few rows for the ceremony. The couple sat several rows back and away from the rest of the family. Still, it’s unclear whose choice that may have been. The couple’s seats and Jill’s exclusion from the wedding party seem to suggest a rumored rift between the two sisters is very much a reality.
Before Jill and Derick opted to set boundaries with the Duggar family, Jill and her older sister appeared close. Jana even served as Jill’s maid of honor at her 2014 nuptials. They, however, have not been spotted together in any significant way in several years. Jill later admitted that she maintains relationships with some siblings but not others. Jana may be one of the siblings she’s no longer connected to.
