Amy Duggar King lives a quieter life compared to her reality TV days.
Amy, 38, is the sole daughter of Jim Bob Duggar’s sister, Deanna Duggar, and Terry Jordan. She was featured on 19 Kids and Counting alongside her cousins when the show premiered in 2008.
Throughout her time on the TLC series, Amy — who did not grow up with the same customs as her cousins — was best known for sharing her disapproval of the rules the Duggars had to follow — including their courtship rituals.
“I would probably ditch my chaperone,” Amy said to Jim Bob during an early episode of 19 Kids and Counting. “You don’t want me to be [your kids’] chaperone. I will pretty much let them do whatever. Come on now! I’m pretty sure you and Aunt Michelle were not like that when you were younger. I’m pretty sure they kissed before they were married.”

During a 2014 special episode of 19 Kids and Counting, Amy shared that she was going to Nashville to pursue a music career. Despite having musical aspirations, Amy ultimately opted not to proceed with her dreams.
The following year, 19 Kids and Counting came to an end after 10 seasons. Following the show’s final episodes, Amy tied the knot with husband Dillon King in September 2015. The couple welcomed son Daxton in October 2019.
After the 19 Kids and Counting came to an end, a spinoff titled Counting On was greenlit by TLC. The new show followed the lives of the older Duggar kids as they started their own families. Amy made multiple appearances on the spinoff, which aired for 11 seasons.

“I think we are all just trying to find our path and we’re all just doing things differently,” Amy told Entertainment Tonight in July 2020. “I’m doing things differently, and I’m happy where I’m at. I’m happy for them. Things are definitely different, but I’m happy for everybody. I’m in a good place and I wish my family all the best. I have freedom and it is wonderful.”
Earlier this year, Amy revealed that Dillion was diagnosed with a severe diaphragmatic rupture. Amy explained in an April interview with People that the condition is “an extremely rare and dangerous condition that has caused vital organs, including his kidney and parts of his digestive system, to shift into his chest cavity.”

“Doctors have made it clear that this is not a quick fix,” Amy told the outlet. “The risks are high, the procedures complex and the recovery uncertain. We are taking this one moment at a time, clinging to hope, prayer and the wisdom of the medical teams who are now walking this road with us.”
Later that month, Amy gave an update on how Dillion was faring when a fan inquired about his health scare via social media.
“He’s taking it easy! Still in pain but you’d never know from this photo!” she replied to a fan via Instagram. “There’s just SO much sitting and relaxing one can do before you start to get a lil stir crazy. He isn’t the type to stay down!”
