The Duggar family’s matriarch, Michelle Duggar, made a rare public appearance alongside her husband, Jim Bob Duggar, in a YouTube video posted by their eldest daughter, Jana Duggar, to celebrate Michelle’s 59th birthday on September 13th. The video documented a large family vacation to Florida, where the Duggars enjoyed various activities like swimming, shopping, and attending a pirate show. After stepping out of the public eye following the cancellations of their reality shows, 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On, the sight of Michelle and Jim Bob—who were briefly spotted walking hand-in-hand—was a surprise to fans. The rare glimpse of the couple in a relaxed family setting was overwhelmingly appreciated in the comments, with many fans sending late birthday wishes and expressing delight at seeing the family together.
