Jana Duggar may be the perpetually single Duggar daughter, but fans think they’ve found the perfect man for her: Lawson Bates! When the Bringing Up Bates star shared a photo of himself holding a rose, fans begged him to hand it over to the Counting On star and begin courting her.

On Thursday, January 18, Lawson, 26, shared a photo of himself in a blue suit, holding a single red rose. He simply captioned it, “01 • 24 • 19 ?.”
Fans wondered if Lawson was hinting he’s joining The Bachelor, but that role’s already been claimed by famous virgin Colton Underwood.
While some speculated Lawson would be releasing a new single on the date, others didn’t care what Lawson was trying to hint at. Instead, they just wanted to make sure he gave the rose to the right girl, Jana!
“@lawbates give the rose to @janaduggar. You two would be perfect together!” one fan wrote. “Please tell me that rose is for Jana!!” begged another.

This isn’t the first time fans have shipped Jana and Lawson. When the 29-year-old launched her own Instagram account on January 10, fans couldn’t help but notice that Lawson was one of the first to comment on her first post.
When he commented, “So tech savvy,” fans immediately jumped in and wrote, “DATE!!” and “DATE HER.”
As Duggar fans know, Jana is the oldest unmarried Duggar daughter. Her twin brother John-David finally got hitched in November 2018, and her four younger sisters are all married with kids.
Jana was once rumored to be dating her best friend Laura DeMasie, but the latter emphatically shut the rumors down on Twitter.
