Is Jill Duggar’s husband Derick Dillard finally done feuding with Jazz Jennings? After the latter told Us Weekly she’s done giving the fired Counting On star her attention, Derick responded to the I Am Jazz star’s diss.
At LC’s 2nd Annual GIVE A LITTLE Awards in New York City on Thursday, September 20, Jazz told Us Weekly, “Honestly, I don’t give Derick any of my attention. I don’t even read the tweets that he sends out anymore because I just don’t care. You know? He can say whatever. I think he’s doing it for attention.”
As Duggar and Jazz fans know, Derick got himself fired from Counting On when he slammed TLC for airing Jazz’s story. He called transgender a “myth” and said Jazz’s transition story was akin to child abuse.
A fan alerted Jazz to Derick’s diss on Twitter, writing, “Do you have any response to kween @JazzJennings_.” Derick couldn’t help replying.

“I just speak out against child abuse and especially those who promote it, because it’s the right thing to do,” Derick replied. “It’s just absolutely awful and should not be celebrated.”
While Derick’s been off Counting On since November, he still manages to make headlines thanks to his controversial tweets. He also slammed TLC star Nate Berkus and his husband Jeremiah Brent for having a “travesty of a family.”
