PHOTOS19 Kids And Counting’s Jana Duggar Turned Down Proposal To Court With Bringing Up Bates’ Star Zach Bates
Just because her alleged relationship with Tim Tebow didn’t work out, it doesn’t mean Jana Duggar doesn’t have plenty of suitors!
The 19 Kids And Counting star has yet to court or get married like some of her siblings, but there was one famous male interested in her!
According to RadarOnline, Bringing Up Bates star and Duggar family friend Zach Bates was at one point interested in the 25-year-old Duggar.
Bates, who is the same age as Jana, once pursued Jana before he married his wife, Whitney Perkins, in 2013.
A family insider told Radar that Jana and Zach went on some secret chaperoned dates.
The Bates boy even asked Jim Bob Duggar permission to officially court his oldest daughter.
Despite Jim Bob’s approval, Jana rejected the Bates boy!

“Jana just wasn’t interested,” a source told Radar.
“She wasn’t attracted to him and just didn’t see it working out.”
Meanwhile, Zach married his wife in late 2013 and welcomed their first child in October, just before the show premiered on UPI on Jan. 1, 2015.
Jana, who according to one report last week is “terrified” of being single forever, is reportedly quite “picky” when it comes to men!
“Jana has been pursued by several guys,” Radar reported.
“The problem is that Jana’s extremely picky. She wants the real deal and won’t settle for less.”
