all right, I find this a bit funny!
http://radaronline.com/exclusives/2014/11/duggar-sex-scandal-jessa-ben-consummating-marriage/
DH said his coworker's wife texted him with the info, so of course I had to come google! roflol - now dh says this just confirms to all those that say one kiss will lead to sex! LOL (I don't care if they did or didn't, I'm just laughing with dh thinking about if they did! I can't imagine that they had that much time, with all those guests just outside the door, highly unlikely, but maybe that's why I think its funny?!)

I just saw a poll guessing who will marry next. I'm thinking John David.

Jessa responded to the above accusation with a biblical verse. So sad to see awful rumors about these girls. Are people that jealous of this family they just have to cut them down to make themselves feel better?
Jessa Responds to Rumor
I have to agree with one of the responses to this article. Anyone who thinks this girl and her husband would have sex @ the church reception has to have their head examined. It's hard for me to believe anyone @ their wedding would even say something like this.

There are lots of lovely wedding photos of Jessa's and Ben's wedding at people.com

So the girls saw "an act of lust". I think that has to be put into perspective. This is a culture that deems dancing as taboo! An act of lust could be as simple as a deep kiss and some inappropriate hand grabbing! Oh, the SHOCK!

It was probably some heavy petting. That would shock them I'm sure.

What was that woman thinking - opening the door on their private moment (which I seriously doubt was consummation of their marriage)? She was a nosy busybody who should have let them have a few minutes alone as a newly married couple.

Color me skeptical of the whole claim.

I read that Mary B. (the person who originally posted that Jessa and Ben did it in the church) subsequently posted that her original post was a satirical post (a joke and not true) in the comment section of a satirical blog, and that she was surprised news agencies had picked it up. She said it would be like CNN taking news stories from The Onion and reporting them as fact.
It really seems this is just websites not caring about checking sources just to get as many clicks as possible.
I do not believe it nor do I think Jinger opened the door on any private moment between Jessa and Ben.

I think the idea of 'verify,verify, verify' is of most importance where the internet is concerned. Ruining a person's reputation is way to easy these days.

Ridiculous rumor about the supposed fornication in church. Booo.
Anna is mighty good at being perky. That road trip show ranked high amongst the most sleep inducing, thank you.
Anna looks preggers to me or she's just developed a belly due to her healthy eating habits. She has her mil figure....😜

Anna is very good on camera. She's a very attractive young woman & presents herself very well. She does seem to be developing that same body type that Michelle has - kinda thick through the middle w/large breasts. She might be pregnant or still fighting the last of the baby wt from Marcus. I know that folks usually show earlier with later pregnancies. It's known that this family do not practice birth control & it's known that Josh & Anna are still very much into each other after 6 yrs of marriage.
I really like Anna & she's become one of my fav's in this family.

omg - roflol - - another report that they had "relations" in the room with their fist kiss! Seriously I find it funny, BUT, it does keep them in the news, so it brings viewers to the show - imho, that is why they are continuing with the sordid tale! I read it yesterday, but things got hectic, I didn't save the link - it said that is why she posted the black and white photo of them with the Bible verse! (I mean the article seemed to twist things a bit, which again, makes me laugh, seriously? )
I agree with OG< there just doesn't seem to be any need to "verify" anymore!

In the wake of the Duggar kiss pics, the matriarch and patriarch sent out a pic of themselves kissing and asked other married couples to celebrate the joy of marriage with them by sending similar kissing pictures.
Except they sorta didn't expect married gay men and lesbians to join in the fun, I'm guessing.

Why did the parents need to send out a photo of them with similar kisses? Kind of attention grabbing from the newlyweeds, if you ask me.

Can't these people moderate a little bit? They go from not being able to touch each other before marriage (I know, hand holding)to pictures of PDA, and encouraging others to do the same. Seems very gratuitous.

IMHO,it all boils down to the almighty dollar. As long as they are relevant and in the news, TLC keeps sending those big checks.

Well, because of this family's exposure on TLC, America has made them a fav reality TV family. Keeping America interested, keeps TLC interested & keeps that revenue coming in. Heck, I don't blame them one bit. If TLC came knocking on my door & wanted to pay me all kinds of $$ to film my everyday life, I would jump on it in a heart beat. There has to be a substantial amount of $$ involved for folks to let their lives be filmed. Power to them for having their uniqueness that make them interesting enough to make $$ off of it.

i have been around many couples who had sex prior to marriage but were sickly gross with PDA (public display of affection).

Perhaps drawing attention from the newlyweds - and the unpleasant drama - was exactly what the parents intended. Ben and Jessa didn't deserve the negative publicity that so many media outlets jumped on without any substantiation. Being newlyweds and getting to know one another is a time for them to be together without all the hype. I think it is great that so many of the families in this unique situation are still seemingly happily married.
