WEDDING BELLS

Jedidiah and Katey tied the knot in April of 2021 in a traditional Duggar-style wedding.

The soon-to-be mother’s half-brother Reed, who attended the affair, spoke to Without a Crystal Ball about the big day.

“It was a chilled one. When I think of a wedding I think like ‘woo, party, open bar!’” he revealed. 

“There was no alcohol and no dancing. It was short and sweet. It was pretty much like, vows and we ate.”

BABY ON THE WAY

Just months later, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together.

In September of 2021, the pair shared the pregnancy news in a sweet Instagram post.

Jed and Katey posted a photo of themselves locking lips while holding a word board out in front of them.

They captioned the post: “She tested positive, but not for Covid.”

In the first photo from the set, Katey held up a sign that read: “And then there were 3.”

The sign mentioned that their “baby Duggar” would be due sometime in the spring.

During their nearly ten-minute vid, the two appeared to be driving together during the night.

Katey said: “We picked up a pregnancy test. I have been feeling kinda funny for the past few weeks. I have been having cramping, bloating, just different things that have been odd.

“I need to take a pregnancy test. If it’s negative, we should go to a doctor and make sure everything is okay.”

Jed then screamed at the camera: “It was positive! We’re having a baby!”

LITTLE BOY

Then, in January, Jed and Katey announced the gender of their baby.

The couple took to their joint Instagram account to share the news, posting two black-and-white stills from their gender reveal party.

A majority of the Duggar family appeared to have attended the event which was held at a local park.

The family was shown eating together and making guesses about the child’s gender before the reveal.

In the first of two photos, Jed and Katey were shown smiling what appeared to be moments after they learned what they were having.

The second photo showed Jed swinging at something, sending dust flying into the air.

They captioned the post: “And the gender of our baby is…,” directing fans to a YouTube video in which they showed all the details.

Joe Duggar, John Duggar, Abbie Burnett, Jana Duggar, and other members of the famous family were in attendance.

During the bash, the group chowed down on themed snacks, choosing sides before they gathered to find out the gender once and for all.

After confirming the baby was a boy, someone could be heard shouting: “I knew it!” as Jed and Katey kissed.
