The well-known unmarried eldest daughter of the Duggar family, Jana Duggar, unexpectedly turned everything upside down.
Jana has been well-known for being the one Duggar daughter who refused to follow the family’s notorious marriage timeline. Not only did she marry in an incredible off-the-shoulder gown, but she also disclosed that she is going against another family custom by going to nursing school! Who knew the former star of Counting On had so much hidden talent?
Due to their success with the reality TV series 19 Kids and Counting (and later Counting On), the Duggar family has become one of the most well-known. With 19 children under their belt, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar brought up their family according to strict Christian principles.
Especially the Duggar daughters are renowned for upholding stringent guidelines on modesty, courting, and early marriage. There was constant pressure to get married and start having children as soon as possible.
However, Jana, who is currently 34, felt that marriage was only a far-off dream—possibly even a nightmare. She’s finally turned the tide after years of being called the “Cinderella Duggar” who would always stay at home.
Jana is Among The Few Duggars To Go To College
Jana became the first Duggar sibling to attend a secular institution when she enrolled at NorthWest Arkansas Community institution (NWACC) last year, according to PEOPLE. That’s correct, she is embracing her higher education rather than merely adhering to her family’s stay-at-home, get-married-young philosophy.
Although Jana hadn’t pursued her interest in nursing until recently, she had always been interested in it, she acknowledged to the magazine. And I thought, ‘You know what? Let me simply throw myself into anything; perhaps this is more of my calling,” she remarked. And she did immerse herself into it!
Jana recently made the Dean’s List for the Spring 2024 semester at NWACC, demonstrating the fruit of her hard work and devotion (for those who need a reminder, the Dean’s List includes students who have achieved a GPA between 3.5 and 4.0, so yes, she’s smashing it).
At the Age of 34, Jana Recently Got Married
Not only that, but Jana’s pursuit of higher education also brought her face to face with an old romantic partner, Stephen Wissmann. Following a brief courtship a few years prior, the couple reignited their love during her second semester of nursing school.
In June, they announced their engagement, and on August 15th, they were married in Prairie Grove, Arkansas. How exciting! What a crazy year!
The Duggar family has known Jana’s new husband, Stephen, for a long time; in fact, his sister Anna is wed to Jana’s brother, Josh. Like the Duggars, the Wissmanns are a large, devout Christian family with deep religious ties.
Jana’s best friend Jessa served as maid of honor, while her sisters Jinger, Joy, Johannah, Jordyn, and Jennifer were bridesmaids in their little wedding. Jana’s intimate relationship with Abbie Duggar, a nurse, was further cemented by the fact that she was by her side.
That’s right, Jana, the Duggar sibling who was formerly believed to be unable to get married, is suddenly engaged to be a nurse. It remains to be seen if she will stick to breaking Duggar customs or find a new rhythm, but one thing is certain: this Cinderella tale is far from finished.
