- Jill and Derick Dillard open up to ET's Deidre Behar about their new memoir, 'Counting the Cost.' Best known to fans of '19 Kids and Counting' as Jill Duggar, the former reality star explains where she stands today with her parents, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, following years of scandals and personal revelations from the famous family. Among those sensitive topics is Josh Duggar, who the family previously confirmed had inappropriately touched Jill, three other siblings and a babysitter. She calls writing about her brother, as well as details about the abuse surfacing in the media, the 'hardest' part of the book process. 'Counting the Cost' is on bookshelves now.

Bravo to Derek for protecting Jill & giving her the strength & support to speak up!! So happy for them both
And for also being her safe space! I am learning that that is so important to have that as well as being that to someone.❤
@@teikajackson8103 that is so true. Makes me wonder though w all the forms JB made them fill out, neither Derek, Jeremy or Ben hardly make any money at the time. I wouldn't think he'd let his daughters marry a man who can't fully support them. But obviously he really doesn't care about his daughters anyway
Derek is a manipulative family divider, not a true Christian! He will end up doing to Jill, what he is doing to his wonderful in-laws, and many others, eventually, if someone (or it may take a few people), don’t man up, and help Jim Bob and Michelle, hold this Christ hating Derek accountable to Christ which is only way to get these Pharisees saved and able to deal with reality! Once Derek replaces Jill, he, and his enablers, will joyfully divide Jill from her own children, in order to manipulate them into worshipping him over worshiping Christ (while simultaneously manipulating everyone into thinking he is the victim and Jill is the bad wife, and mother by using the same type of slanderous, lying narcissist methods that he and Jill and media are doing on this show towards their innocent loving parents now.
Derek and Jill and media are deceiving many naive people into thinking the Duggar parents are the perpetrators when they are the victims of Jill and Derek’s most wicked abuse ever!
Many wicked young men are treating their naïve young wives like Derek is treating Jill right now (and how Jeremy is treating Jinger)! Alienating them from their Christlike family members and friends (and therefore from Christ) via slander and unjust criticism!
Notice Jill says that Derek’s mind was always wired to think like a lawyer! I totally agree! Lawyers are people who lie and deceive to manipulate people for money.
Indeed.
If only he could be so kind to the trans community
I love how protective Derrick is of her, he doesn’t overspeak for her, but he is quick to be that strength. That’s an amazing man. Jill, you are so strong, and beautiful and I look forward to reading your book.
I LOVE how Derek speaks up and makes it clear how people were complicit in dealing with the abuse..
Really great, because Jill needs that support, and people who have been abused (that will see this interview) will benefit from hearing and seeing someone who really loves another person, and supports them.
I'm relieved he's not a guy who blames the victims
100% agree
I am in the same boat. I am 55 and still am the "black sheep"
Jill’s interview changed my opinion of her. I thought she was a pawn of her family, but this shows how intelligent and strong she is. Advocate for YOU, Jill!!!
Im so happy that Jill got such a good husband. Derrick is a good example of positive masculinity, hes protective and loving of Jill, without disrespecting her as a full grown equal adult.
You pretty much summed him up.
Right. The real protection women need. Not that imaginary "I would die for you" thing that gets Parroted but very rarely tested or lived out
Thank you Jill & Derrick ❤
Yeah let’s hope their children aren’t gay then we’ll see his inner Jim Bob come out .
@@carolinelaronda4523I doubt they'll turn out to be degenerates.
Jim Bob’s GREED knows no bounds. Jill’s book is so good! I can’t put it down. I wish the best for her and her beautiful family. Stay strong Jill! You are raising your children in a healthy environment and that is everything!!!
I just finished her book and highly recommend it. She spoke very candidly about many topics, particularly the legal battles. She is a good example of someone who has recognized the toxicity she was raised in and has grown due to her hard work in that area. There's no going back at this point, and she has suffered greatly for the stance she's taken.
It's really good to see so many of the Duggar kids living their lives their own way.
Does Jill talk about her mum Michelle choosing to support her eldest son, who committed incestuous pedophilia, and actively choosing not to support or advocate for her daughters who were the victims of their horrible and disgusting brother's crimes? I personally would find that to be a very hard pill to swallow. I always found Josh and his father to be quite gross. And I feel horrible for Anna, she's an extreme example of the old saying "Marry In Haste, And Repent In Leisure". I pray that she will just take her kids, and whatever cash she can get a hold of, and then just disappear. She was raised in a cult, and indoctrination from childhood, and that can make it so difficult to see reality even when it's literally in front your face.
@@louisejohnson6057 She basically said that with the indoctrination, she understands her mother's actions. She also sees the extreme pain on her face. Indoctrination runs deep.
Michelle is WRONG also
Michelle is Wrong Too , She Should NOT be Brainwashed by JB .
@@L3Lewis24Michelle is VERY WRONG! Stand UP FOR YOUR DAUGHTERS!!!!
As a former member of a fundamental Baptist church, I can tell you that breaking away from that type of conditioning is beyond difficult. I had to go through therapy to help deal with the emotional and mental trauma. Reading through her book just brought so many memories to mind of how I was raised. It sent shivers down my spine. More people need to come out against this cult.
It is amazing she made it through.
I never really had heard of this before. Looking back at the show, it definitely was very odd how they had lived and believed. Definitely not what Christianity is really about.
O k
Y'all believe the hype! They Keep it going with.....keep believing there😮 mess!!!
Jill & Jinger need therphy Bad;!! All this foolishness when Jill fot sick who she call her mom Michelle reninber& Jinger when she lost her baby again h t mom incouraging her...y'all want attention that's ALL .....sad grow up...
How ironic. I remember seeing a few episodes where Jim Bob personally picked Derick for Jill. And he’s been the one to give her strength to put words to the truth of her family.
Wow, Jim Bob was such a blessing to Jill in supporting Derek to be her husband.
@@juliewirries6499 he’s probably been rethinking that move! 😆
Same with the daughter that moved to LA, I'm sure.
I'm so happy she is speaking up and telling it all. I used to watch the show and felt really uneasy about it, but I watched on. Wow... continue to live in your truth.
PRoud of Jill & Derick For SPEAKI G, THE TRUTH
Yeah I was always uneasy about the show as well. It always seemed very cult like and just a lot more going on than anyone else realized. It was all pretty suspicious as well. Seems like they have done a lot of covering up. They tried to cover up what Josh did and I’m glad that he was finally prosecuted for the sexual abuse and assault. Hopefully prison will remain his home for a long time.
@julievanderleest yessss, totally cult like. The funny thing is that the parents were brought up differently. Mom used to be a cheer leader.
I truly believe coming from a family that participated in child abuse and molestation if it would not have been for her husband as her backbone and support system she wouldn't be doing this!
I just said the same thing today. If she had married someone similar to her father, she likely wouldn't have recognized the major flaws.
Shame on you for blaming Jim Bob and Michelle for what their son did. It happens in many families, probably in some speaking out the most and they don't go public with it.
@@juliewirries6499 Where did you see blame put on the parents?
@@juliewirries6499 😒😒😒🤔🤨😫🙄🤥
@@juliewirries6499The parents are the ones who covered everything up. Instead of protecting the daughters, they chose to cover for the son.
What a great and respectful interviewer.
So proud of Jill and Derrick for their bravery and courage to tell their story. She shared the truth in such a classy way. So proud of her for finding her voice and value. I grew up in a patriarchal culture and am so grateful my spouse and I evolved into a partnership instead. Jill is so wise and they have both clearly worked through a lot and have both done a lot of personal work.
Jim Bob and Michelle raised brave girls. Good job parents.
@@juliewirries6499they’re strong and brave in spite of their parents! Jim Bob and Michelle KNEW their son was a predator and failed to protect their daughters and the community going forward after the abuse perpetrated by Josh. Furthermore, they failed to get their daughters any sort of professional help or support after the abuse. They swept it under the rug and went on with life. That’s not doing a “good job” as parents.
This shows that Jill’s character is truly good and she’s a truth seeker, not at all malicious. God bless her!
Hey, Jim Bob, if you didn't pay your kids because "it's a ministry" then why did you get paid since it was your ministry too?
Good question
cause he was providing for his family?
@@xKellogsx But some of his kids had a family to provide for too
@@xKellogsxNot totally. Some of the kids were grown, and or married. Some had kids. Their income was included on their personal taxes, and they paid taxes on that amount. But, they did not receive the amount of money their taxes stated. This was illegal.
JB is an EVIL, GREEDY person
Just read Jill's book. Thank you for speaking up and your transparency. You are helping so many in sooooo many ways. Thank you!
So Proud of Jill and Derek. As someone who started watching literally from 14 kid to the last episode of Counting on like many others, seeing her be able to finally stand up for herself is monumental. Even when the pain had to be immense with her Father saying such terrible things to her/them she has handled it with such Grace lord knows if it was mean I don’t think I could’ve done it. So Bravo Jill & Derek well done. Continued Prayers Always 🙏

U could tell this man advocate for his wife and will not tolerate any form of abuse , a true protector and provider
Big respect to Jill for standing her ground, she is so brave. And to Derick for supporting, encouraging, and standing by her side.
I have nothing but admiration for Jill, to become her own person is amazing. She is lucky to have a great supportive husband. Great book Jill, loved it.❤️🇨🇦
Kudos to Derek for having his wife's back.
Bravo to interviewer for being compassionate, and to Jill and Derek for breaking away.
It's great she is speaking her truth.
What sad is Jim Bob and Michelle aren’t denying the situation. It’s sad that her parents failed to protect her and her siblings. They protected a child molester and not protecting there others kids
I’m so happy for you both!! I also grew up in a very toxic family with extreme beliefs. Boundaries are so important I admire your bravery for speaking out I know how hard it can be! Sending love ❤
Breaking away from a cult is difficult no matter the name of it.
Derek is *NO DOUBT* the most intelligent and wise- beyond- his- years man in the entire Duggar universe. Done.
Have you heard his horrific LGBTQ stance. Disagree
Yah... I've heard it. Sick and sad, true that. By saying he's the "most intelligent and wise" of all the Duggars, I meant it in a "smartest on the short bus" kinda way 😁
I’m happy you support the lgbtq community but why be an ableist?! 🤦 As a parent to a disabled child I’m disgusted by your “short bus” joke- it’s not funny. Keep in mind that anyone can become disabled in their lifetime and everyone who lives long enough will become disabled. Be kind, do better!
Do you just hunt for reasons to have a go at someone?@@srso4660
@@JenGCYYCso because someone has a different view than you, they aren’t allowed to be intelligent? Lol y’all are weird as fuck for that.
I hope her & Jinger make a ton of money from their books & then Jim Bob can shove his inheritance! He's a horrible, controlling father.
This was a really good interview
Okay… seeing Jill’s trauma response through her body language absolutely breaks my heart but seeing her husband stand up for, speak when she couldn’t, and support her is amazing. They are both so wonderful together!
Jill is so so strong and her book is very powerful🥺
I read Jill book and I loved it so much. She did it to me with love and respect for dad,mom and siblings. You can tell how much she really loves them all so much. Jill I have loved you from the first show. The way you were all ways ready to help where ever needed. I pray that you and you dad can get back to a good relationship along with any siblings that draw away from you. I believe the Lord will bring you all back together. I have you all in my prayers. Derrick you’re a very good caring loving husband. The way you stand by Jill made me so proud of you. It’s easy to see that God brought you two together. God Bless You 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
AMEN
I doubt that will happen. She has a lot of healing to go through still, because she still can't put any responsibility of what happened towards her parents. She is more angry with the press, than she is with her parents. That will have to come, before she can truly heal. She is incredibly strong. As a survivor? I am so proud of her.
Shout out to Derick for being an amazing and supportive husband. Jill, you are brave and courageous.
I love that Jill and Jinger have spoken about this! They need to definitely build boundaries! I hope everyone finds peace in this chaos! 😢🙏🏻❤️
Jill is so strong! She has been through so much. I finished her book in 2 days. I highly recommend it.
I must say I am so thrilled to see the emotional intelligence that Jill has developed. As much as she (and then later Derek) were my least favorite to listen to back when the show was popular, I actually enjoy them a lot more now because they have been consciously evolving. They might not be to their full potential yet, but at least they are trying and I commend that.
This is the craziest arc to me. I remember when 19 Kids (even back to 14 kids, tbh) was still current, and how Jill would get under my skin a little bit, and definitely seemed to be the top family spokesperson. Her story makes complete sense to me now, looking back. Her parents could tell, even back then, that this would be a young lady that could give some trouble if they didn't keep her in pretty strict line. They underestimated her.
Congratulations Jill & Derrick! It’s one thing to leave a cult, it’s another thing to take it on publicly
Derek and Jill are amazing, what a beautiful example of true love for one another ♥️
Jill looks so good, so healthy. I'm happy to see you guys are doing well.
I so deeply respect that Jill is setting healthy boundaries, and insisting that she be treated as an equal, and as an adult.
I got the audiobook! I love hearing her tell her story!
Bravo Jill❤❤
JB and Shelly never counted on how honest and earnest Jill became as she started to find out who she is instead of who she was told she was her entire childhood and teen years 💜💜 and I really respect how devoted Derick is to his wife you know he truly loves and respects her by the way he looks at her it’s true love 💕💕
I have not seen Derek and Jill in quite some time. I am so glad to see that they are doing well and that Derek has stood by his wife ( Jill ). He was not there for the publicity but for the love of his wife and family. It says a lot about a person's character to continue protecting and supporting Jill during what I can only imagine has been a difficult time. Hold your heads high and be proud of who you both have become. I wish you all the best for the future.
dont worry, they're still out there keeping the money rolling in
Wow so interesting also great tea, especially the group text! Love their honesty
Wow she’s so different - in a good way.
or not
I am beyond proud of you and your siblings for stepping away from an organization that is so toxic. Bravo to you from Jill to another. So much respect to you ❤️❤️❤️
I just absolutely adore these two. I was an avid 19K&C while it was still on air, started watching and recording reruns and then record new episodes back in 2012-2013. And at the time I could tell Derick was NOT cut from the same cloth as the Duggars, even though beliefs and some morals were the same, he seemed much more PROGRESSIVE than any other man to have married into the Duggar family. And really remember Jill and Jessa being the main two that intrigued me. Mind you I was 21yrs old attime. But even back then I could feel Jill’s tenacity for justice and curiosity of different cultures and ways of living. Jill don’t take any BS from anyone!! And I love it. I hope Jill and Derick never change and continue to leave an impression on people ✝️✝️🤍🤍
I admire their bravery. I’m telling their story they are empowering others on similar situations. I wish them nothing but blessings.
Such a beautiful couple with beautiful children
I wish them all the best
Jill is very strong she speaks for all victims and Derek always stands right beside her supporting Jill
He's a good husband he gives her strength and confidence
Proud of you Jill
The book was not what I expected, it was really good. I listened to the audio book, Jill voicing it. It felt more personal and honest. ❤
Jill is so lucky that her dad married her to Derek. I don’t agree with all his personal beliefs, but he’s an amazing husband. He’s got her back on everything. I’m so proud of her for finally standing up and spilling the tea on this cult. Jim Bob should be in jail for some of the crap she revealed in her book.
I am glad she finally spoke out.
Extremely happy for them, and for Jill. The beginning of her heathy and peaceful journey.
Oh man I have a lot of admiration for her ❤!
Great read. Had a credit on audible and Jill read it herself which was pretty cool imo. Good for her for speaking up
trust and forgiveness are two different things...perfectly stated. Years ago my dad, my hero , told me to live by "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me"... He passed two years ago this coming tuesday... might be the best advice I ever received in my life. I easily forgive, but that does not mean I give that person a chance to hurt me again. At 62 years old, the loss of my dad still grieves me, we have mom...she loves me, I stop in daily to check on her, a few mins visiting, she was VERY hard on me growing up, and dad would tell her to give it a break... hes not here now to do that...but, shes mama...learning how to not reply, to have a reason to walk away...has helped...and a husband that has my six...
Jill's book is amazing, and because she is so good at speaking, the audiobook is really a great way to experience it. Highly recommend! A lot of the ideas the Duggar kids were raised with also appear in secular families, so it is a very important book even beyond the faith aspect of the culture.
I’m SO proud of you, Jill!! Your parents are evil and deserve to be exposed.
in the latter days that which is good will be called evil and vice versa.
Absolutely Jill. I had to testify in court on my brothers sa to me and my sisters . This healed me though family disowned me
She wasn’t allowed to have boundaries until she was married. She wasn’t taught that was allowed!
You can see where this interview is very tough for Jill.
I feel for her.
The interviewer was so respectful and made that interview easier.👍
yeah must be real hard for her, slandering her family on national TV for a buck. Keep praising her. She has her reward on earth.
@@xKellogsx are you saying she won’t go to Heaven? If so, are you God?
It’s ok for her parents to exploit their kids for years and the kids receive no kind of compensation that they even paid taxes on?
It’s ok to protect a pedo son at the expense of their victim daughters just to save a show?
More the power to Jill.
@@xKellogsxWooooow. You really have no idea about the evil Duggar family, do you? Are you the 'Christian' that promotes CSA? Otherwise I fail to understand your issue with Jill Duggar exposing her criminal and demonic parents and brother
Just because you're related to people does not mean you should feel obligated to like them. It's that simple.
but you should love and honor them
so glad your found your voice
eye roll
They are both so well spoken. So glad they have gotten away
In the episode where Jill and Jim Bob met Derick and she ran to him, I had a feeling at that moment that she was looking for someone to save her from her dad. Turns out, I may have been right.
So grateful how they have handled this. Speaking the truth and setting firm boundaries, yet still loving and compassionate. After all they have need through, Jill especially, people would understand if she were retaliatory or resentful. But she's risen above that. Wish them all the best.
Jill is amazing&I am so glad she has Derrick by her side!
Jill found out her Dad had filed taxes stating he paid her over 100k. She never knew about that. I wonder if he claimed his children as employees, so his corporation taxable income would be less, but the kids didn't know. Wonder if he received the PPP loan?
O bet he did. He needs looked at for tax evasion. And other stuff along with Michelle, she would've signed the tax forms too.
He can’t file taxes on anything but for the past year. With the itemized list it goes back years. Even if it were legal to charge his children for anything at all!!
This couple has grown closure and have much love for each other. I like to see that. Pray for the family. It is difficult for all. I love seeing how they have grown in understanding of each other too. No relationship is perfect ever. These two have a good foundation and have had to struggle to get where they are. That is strength. Happy Gill is working it out. All things work for the good of those who believe. Peace!
I’m so glad she’s doing better especially after the way her parents handled her brother.
So proud of you!
Therefore the concept Domesday Cults
@@AndriaTidmarshhackett-ym2qb So proud of you!
The understanding is that she's an adult and her husband is a lawyer who can now protect her interests. I feel so sorry for her and her family.
God bless both of them 🙏
Youre amazing Jill❤ Brave and beautiful thank God for You.
Her hair looks really pretty here in a 1970s way.
Wow, Jim Bob and Michelle surely did raise strong girls.
I absolutely love that Jim Bob is shitting bricks after jills book. 👍
So sorry this happened to you. You did rise above it and you are amazing with a wonderful husband!
Im still worried about Jana 😥
Love her 💕 I think she is amazing and strong ❤
Yes, Jim Bob and Michelle raised some very strong girls and articulate too.
I can't wait to read her memoir!
This book is so well-written and honest. Jill is extremely brave. ❤
This book is a real eye opener, if you haven’t read it I encourage you to. Jill is not toxic she’s only speaking the truth and Derek has been loving and supportive of her.
Jill should have been protected. There were many times and so many people that failed her. I wonder if anyone in the legal system was bribed to release info on her assault? I can only hope her strength and the pain she endures to be an advocate save other children. We appreciate you Jill.
People were most definitely promised money in order to release details illegally. When there is money involved, most people's values and ethics go right out the window. Everybody has a price, and media companies know this and use it to their advantage.
Jill should have been protected? Jim Bob and Michelle were asleep and didn't know Josh went into the girl's room. Are you able to stop something when you're asleep?
@@juliewirries6499 They had Josh in the room watching Jill when they put her on T. V. to deny she was assaulted. The first police officer they reported it to was a family friend and he just gave Josh a warning. The family friend was mandated to report this but didn't. Not only were the girls made to deny anything happened to them they weren't given any counseling . The girls watched as their brother was protected while they were thrown to the wolves. The police department wasn't supposed to release these records to the media and the media should not have promoted it without any consideration of how it would affect the girls. The whole thing is a disgusting example victims being re-traumatized by all the people that were supposed to protect them.
Huge respect for Jill and Derick 🙏❤️
Just out there honoring their parents as always.
Pimp Jim Bob and Michelle never honor their daughters.
What a fantastic interview question to start out the video! It seems like interview questions are generic and lacking depth now, but no this one!
They're great together ❤
Eww I never watched her show but that wedding part when they wait after they are married by law and by God for her dads permission to kiss is so eww.
Looking back it just seems like a power play.
At the time, it felt like he was giving her away in marriage and allowing them to start their lives together. But, he never wanted to fully give up control.
Omg Jill is so pretty and her and hubby’s story is still amazing. I have always loved them
I’m not a fan of Derrick as a person after his comments about the trans community, but I love how he’s pushed Jill to open her mind to what’s truly happened in her life & is helping her grow & move forward
Again, he has apologized for the comments that he made. People make mistakes. He made some comments that he no longer agrees with
What exactly did he say about trans people?
@@lynncrf “Gender is not fluid," he said. "It's ordained by God."
Dillard's comments only got more personal and more hateful from there. "I pity Jazz," he tweeted, going onto refer to her by male pronouns. "4 those who take advantage of him in order 2 promote their agenda, including the parents who allow these kinds of decisions 2 be made by a child." referring to Jazz Jennings
He only did it because he knew it would get them to break the contract with TLC.
It is ordained by God.
I can relate to that because I have to do the same sort of relationship separations. But for me it's not my mom but my child's grandma. I hold my mom responsible for not doing anything, equal to my dad. And my dad also lied and I can never look at him the same.
Can't fix stupid!! Its a shame these useless people treated these children this way and just get a free pass to continue being evil!!!
Listening to her audio book she is telling her truth finally way to go Jill
Is it good I really wanna read it
Jill looks so pretty in that golden top and hair color. 🌼
Jill ... you are an amazing young woman. God Bless You.
I’m sure they absolutely love each other as a family . Love and repentance can go a very long way!❤
Oldest trick in the Book: threatening kids with removal from the Will (or the Estate Plan)…
Sadly her father is a sick man… my heart breaks for her and the kids in this family… a man like that shouldn’t get that much power, money and control over others.
I ADORE Jill and I’m so happy she is healthy and happy now! God is good!
Bravo to Derek for being a great guy and loving husband. So sad that her dad is a creep!
It’s awesome Jill married a very supportive man who didn’t see his “place” the way in which her parents and upbringing valued and taught. Just to have a man who supports her means all the world to her success and future!
