SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: Jinger Duggar Vuolo, in a tell-all-new docuseries, is exploring her famous family and their controversial religion. The 29-year-old is anticipating that it will instantly become a hot topic post-release, ‘Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets.’ The four-episode docuseries will dig deep into several controversies associated with the Duggar family, but mostly Josh Duggar.
It is going to shed light on the family's religion, Institute in Basic Life Principles, and its founder Bill Gothard’s alleged misconduct. "I think we'll wait and see. I think everyone will have their own responses and their own timing, and that's just part of how we process. It'll be interesting to see the outcome of it." said Jinger. The ‘Counting On’ alum continues to add, "will be a variety of responses, for sure."
'Derogatory and sensationalized way'
As of now, Duggar family heads Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have distanced themselves from the show, referring to it as ‘derogatory and sensationalized.’
"The recent 'documentary' that talks about our family is sad because in it we see the media and those with ill intentions hurting people we love. Like other families, ours too has experienced the joys and heartbreaks of life, just in a very public format," the family heads said in a statement issued on their official website. "This 'documentary' paints so much and so many in a derogatory and sensationalized way because sadly that’s the direction of entertainment these days."
"We have always believed that the best chance to repair damaged relationships or to reconcile differences is through love in a private setting. We love every member of our family and will continue to do all we can to have a good relationship with each one," they said before adding "Through both the triumphs and the trials we have clung to our faith all the more and discovered that through the love and grace of Jesus, we find strength, comfort, and purpose," reports People.
'A healthy respect for what I put out'
Meanwhile, Jinger's older sister Jill (Duggar) Dillard, and her husband Derick Dillard, including Amy (Duggar) King and her husband Dillon King, were joined by Jim Bob's sister Deanna Jordan in the series. Vuolo, however, stayed away and picked to choose writing her debut memoir as a way to speak out. "I think since being in the public eye since I was young, I have a healthy respect for what I put out as far as whatever I say," she said.
