Jinger Duggar has an ominous prediction for the future.
The disturbingly anti-medicine Duggar daughter and her husband spoke about how their extended family continues to grow.
Apparently, Jim Bob is thinking about how many grandchildren he may soon have.
Jinger predicts that his grandbabies could be 100 strong one day. Jim Bob is projecting even larger numbers.
How many grandkids does Jinger Duggar think that Jim Bob will have?
On this week’s The Jinger and Jeremy Podcast episode, the eponymous hosts discussed Jana Duggar and Abbie Burnett’s shared sex reveal party.
“Today’s episode, we’ve got big news,” Jeremy told viewers. “There’s big news coming out of the Duggar sister baby world.”
He detailed: “Jana and Abbie announced the genders of their kids.”
Yes, Jana and husband Stephen Wissmann are expecting a son. John David Duggar and Abbie are expecting a daughter.
It isn’t uncommon in the Duggar world for siblings to be expecting at the same time. But for the twins to have pregnancies overlapping so closely was unusual.
“Oh yeah,” Jinger chimed in.
She predicted: “We easily could be at 100 grandkids for my parents super soon.”
Babies are cute, but when it comes to this family, the and counting (and counting on) have always been ominous.
Jinger went on to explain that “Because not all the kids are married.”
As it turns out, the family has been doing some very bleak-sounding math.
Jim Bob is expecting billions of Duggars one day
“Your dad sent this out the other day,” Jeremy Vuolo told wife Jinger Duggar, reading an email from Jim Bob.
“So this is assuming that every grandchild has five kids and then all of their grandchildren have five kids,” he read.
“So that’s assuming a lot,” he acknowledged.
“But listen to how quickly it adds up,” Jeremy continued. “In 14 generations, there could be 24 billion Duggar descendants.”
Jinger replied: “Oh my goodness. Wow.”
Math like that always sounds scary. But we should remember that it’s a numerical exercise, and not a description of human behavior.
Some of the Duggars will not have five children. And some of them will not have any children at all.
Fourteen generations would take centuries — even in a cult that marries off most of its members as young adults, before they’re actually ready for marriage or children.
Notably, centuries would also leave plenty of time for people to flee a fertility cult that wants numerous, fecund offspring and embrace families who care about people’s rights, personal growth, and happiness.
No matter what the world looks like in a couple hundred years, it will be very different from the world of today. We don’t have to fear a Duggarspawn army conquering humanity. Probably.
That dismal future is not inevitable
Just for the record, Jim Bob and Michelle do not yet have 100 grandchildren.
At the moment, the number is closer to 40. That’s nuts — that’s more than twice as many children as they had.
And it would be difficult at best for them to shower these grandchildren with equal love (and many Duggar critics do not believe that Jim Bob and Michelle are capable of earnest, healthy love).
The idea that the Duggar grandkids could more than double one day is possible. But not all of the Duggar children seems to be aiming for 5 offspring.
Yes, some are following their parents’ example. Josh, for example. But Jinger and Jeremy aren’t, and they aren’t the only Duggar couple to have a fairly traditional-looking family size.

Thanks to his razor-sharp wit and trenchant political insights, Ben Dreyfuss has gained a large and devoted following on X (formerly Twitter).
But on Thursday night, the writer and son of screen legend Richard Dreyfuss departed from his usual lighthearted content to share a dark chapter from his family’s past.
In a series of tweets, Ben revealed that he and his siblings are estranged from their father, and the rift stems from an allegation directed toward Kevin Spacey.
As you’ll likely recall, numerous accusers have come forward with claims of being sexually assaulted by Spacey.
And in an unexpected turn of events, it seems that Spacey’s alleged crimes had a devastating effect on the Dreyfuss family.
“Everyone assumes my siblings and I are wealthy from our dad and we’re all a bit too uncomfortable to make it clear, but we have no money from my dad,” Ben wrote in tweets that have since been deleted (via USA Today).
“My dad has no money. If he did, we wouldn’t get it since we’ve been estranged ever since some complicated family drama to do with MeToo.”
Ben went on to reveal that the “complicated family drama” was directly tied to the scandal that ended Spacey’s career.
He explained that he was running his father’s Twitter account at the time, and he posted a statement about the allegations on Richard’s behalf.
“That tweet prompted someone to MeToo my dad. He blames us for that. This led to years of acrimony,” Ben continued.
Though the allegation about Spacey came as a shock to many, it’s not the first time that such a claim was made.
Writing for Buzzfeed in 2017, Harry Dreyfuss offered a detailed account of the abuse that he says took place when Spacey directed Richard Dreyfuss in a 2009 production of the play Complicit at the Old Vic Theatre in London.
“It happened one night when the three of us were alone in Kevin’s apartment rehearsing my father’s lines,” Harry wrote.
“My father didn’t see, and I didn’t tell him about the incident for many years. Instead, I spent the next nine years telling people the story at parties for laughs.”
At the time, Spacey denied any wrongdoing in a statement issued through his lawyer.
“Let me be clear, Mr. Spacey absolutely denies the allegations,” said attorney Bryan Freedman.
USA Today and other outlets say that they’ve reached out to Spacey for a comment on this week’s developments, but have received no response.
We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Nina Dobrev appears to be going through it at the moment.
Two months after her unexpected breakup with Shaun White, The Vampire Diaries alum shared a social media message that seemingly alluded to the couple of five years’ broken engagement.
And her state of mind ever since it went down.
In a November 13 TikTok video set to Ariana Grande’s 2014 smash hit “Break Free,” Dobrev flipped off the camera (above) as she lip-synced, “If you want it, take it/I should have said it before.”
The 36-year-old then showed off her empty ring finger, mouthing to the words: Tried to hide it, fake it / I can’t pretend anymore.
It’s hard not to interpret this clip as someone reaching out from a dark place, especially after Dobrev wrapped up the video by scowling at the camera and flipping her middle finger again.
Not that we can blame her, of course.
“It was a mutual decision, and wasn’t an easy one, but it was made with love and a deep respect for one another,” a source told People Magazine previously of Dobrev and White going their separate ways.
Neither White nor Dobrev, who mostly kept their relationship out of the spotlight, have commented on the split. They were last seen out in public at the end of August… holding hands while running errands in Los Angeles.
We don’t know for certain when the celebrities decided to go their separate ways.
However, Dobrev walked the red carpet on September 7 at the Toronto International Film Festival without her 5-carat diamond engagement ring.
Not long before news of the pair’s split went viral, the actress shared a TikTok video in which she lip-synced to a sassy track about other women trying to “fix” a man. Interesting, huh?
“How do you sleep at night knowing people don’t like you?” Dobrev mouthed to the audio of the September 5 clip. “With no underwear, in case they wanna kiss my ass.
“What’s your advice for women trying to fix their man? Listen, Bob the Builder, he’s got 10 other women trying to fix him too, and you all look like a damn construction crew.”
As for any chatter that she’s dating Zac Efron?
After she and the High School Musical cast member were spotted vacationing with friends Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh Teller?
Dobrev told TMZ at the time that she and Efron were only friends, adding:
“I’m excited for the future and the only thing that’s guaranteed is change.”

With all the recent controversy over the Epstein files, the Trump administration can scarcely afford another scandal at the moment.
So the MAGA crowd is probably not thrilled about the timing of Olivia Nuzzi’s allegations against Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
As you may recall, Nuzzi is the journalist who claimed that she had an affair with Kennedy during his 2024 presidential campaign.
Kennedy is married to actress Cheryl Hines, and Nuzzi was engaged to fellow journalist Ryan Lizza at the time.
Nuzzi was fired from New York magazine as a result of the ensuing scandal.
Her memoir, American Canto, won’t hit stores until December 2, but it’s already the talk of Washington.
The New York Times has obtained a copy of the book, and according to the newspaper’s recent profile of Nuzzi, readers looking for a salacious account of a forbidden romance will not be disappointed.
“She loved his eyes, ‘blue as the flame.’ She loved that ‘the sight of something as trivial as a rose’ could move him to tears. She loved his insatiable appetites and his ‘particular complications and particular darkness,’” reads the piece published on Friday.
“But she said ‘I love you’ only after he said it first. He called her ‘Livvy’ and wrote her poems. He said he wanted her to have his baby. He promised to take a bullet for her,” it continues.
Nuzzi also claims that Kennedy, a former heroin addict, still uses psychedelic drugs — including dimethyltryptamine, or DMT.
The potent substance is the active ingredient in the hallucinogen ayahuasca.
The fact that Kennedy is (allegedly) a user is not a total shock, as he’s espoused the use of DMT as a therapeutic tool.
“These are people who badly need some kind of therapy, nothing else is working for them,” RFK Jr. once told a House committee, according to the New York Post.
“This line of therapeutics has tremendous advantage if given in a clinical setting. And we are working very hard to make sure that that happens within 12 months.”
As for the other claims, however? Well, let’s just say RFK and his wife are accusing Nuzzi of having a very active imagination.
A spokesperson for the cabinet member insists that he “only met Olivia Nuzzi once in his life for an interview she requested, which yielded a hit piece.”
“I think you always have to consider the source, right?” Hines quipped on a recent podcast interview (via the New York Post). “So that’s where I start. And then it ends with a conversation with Bobby.”
Like many of the men in his famous family, RFK Jr. has a long history of infidelity.
His second wife accused Kennedy of being a “sexual deviant.” She took her own life not long after finding out about his many affairs.
We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
