NEWSJim Bob & Michelle Duggar Called Out Daughter's Rule-Breaking Fashion Choices, Jinger's Husband Testifies
Rule breaker!
Jinger Duggar's husband, Jeremy Vuolo, recalled several times when in-laws Jim Bob and Michelle lectured them both about the importance of modesty during testimonies for the Duggar sisters' recently dismissed privacy lawsuit against the Springdale Police Department.
The Duggar parents famously require their daughters to follow a strict dress code which includes avoiding low cut tops, shorts, and even jeans. Instead, they opt for long, flowy dresses that don't show off their figures. However, many of the Duggar daughters chose to upgrade their styles to something more modern after they left home and started their adult lives with families of their own.
Jeremy answered questions about how Jim Bob and Michelle felt about Jinger's evolving fashion sense in a deposition from May 26, 2021, according to court papers obtained per The Sun.

An attorney asked the former soccer pro if the Duggars ever "expressed any opinions" on the differences in how Jinger and Jeremy choose to live their lives, to which Jeremy responded, "Yes."
"They've spoken to us about - what was it - I guess modesty is one," he reportedly explained. "We've had a couple of conversations."
"They just shared their - their thoughts on women wearing dresses, I guess," he continued. "I remember Mrs. Duggar just sharing her own personal journey of modesty."

Jeremy also reportedly admitted there has been emotional distance with Jinger's parents since their move to California.
"I think as you grow and have your own family, kids, and life - you know, you go from, like, seeing everyone every day to talking to everyone every day to, you know," he allegedly said in the court filing.
As OK! previously reported, Jill, Jessa, Joy-Anna and Jinger sued the city of Springdale and its police department, accusing them of leaking private information from police reported to tabloids after their father told authorities that their brother Josh molested five young girls.
Judge Timothy L. Brooks later dismissed the complaint, noting the plaintiffs failed to provide "any direct proof or reasonable inference" the authorities gave the redacted files to any publication. He also stated they did not prove that any actions were done specifically to cause emotional distress to the Duggar sisters.
