Move over 19 Kids and Counting, now we're at 19 Duggar grandkids and counting. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's 19 children have now had 19 kids of their own, and there's even a 20th grandchild on the way. And only a fraction of the Duggar kids have started their own families. These 19 grandkids came from just eight Duggar marriages, many of them now featured on spin-off show Counting On! Just wait until the younger Duggars grow up and get married and start families of their own.
Likely soon adding to the grandkids list will probably be Justin Duggar. He's currently engaged to Claire Spivey and after they get married, perhaps they'll start a family of their own. And if each Duggar continues to have multiple children, Jim Bob and Michelle will become grandparents dozens of times over.
It's hard to keep track of all the little ones that keep coming, so here's the complete (for now) list of all 19 Duggar grandkids.
Mackynzie
Marcus
Marcus arrived two years later, in 2013, bringing the Duggar grandkid total up to three — all from Josh and Anna's family. But Josh's siblings soon began getting married and having kids of their own to round out the extensive grandchildren list. Marcus is 7 now, and Anna wrote on Instagram that he's a great animal lover. "A boy’s best friend is his frog," he recently said.
Israel
2015 marked the first Duggar grandkid not from Josh and Anna's family. That's the year Jill and her husband Derick Dillard welcomed their son Israel, who is now 5. "He's just a handsome little fella," Jill said of her first child after his birth. Her pregnancy journey was documented in the 2015 episode "Jill's Special Delivery."
Meredith
Josh and Anna also had a child in 2015, their daughter Meredith. The now 5-year-old is a lot like her older brother Marcus, and she enjoys playing with cute animals like her cousin's kitten (pictured here). She's the second oldest of Josh and Anna's three daughters and seems to be thriving as a middle child, based on Anna's Instagram snaps.
Spurgeon
2015 also marked the first time Jessa and Ben Seewald had a child — their son Spurgeon. ABC News reported that he's named after the 1800s preacher Charles Spurgeon. "He had a big impact on our lives," Ben said at the time. "His writings and his sermons and books are still around today. They just continued to impact many, many people."
Spurgeon Seewald is now 5.
Henry
A couple of years passed before another Duggar grandkid was born. Then in 2017, Jessa and Ben welcomed their son Henry. Ben said that they named him Henry because "we just thought it was cute, but also there was another great man of God named Matthew Henry … he wrote a lot of great commentaries." Henry is 3 years old now.
Samuel
Samuel is Jill and Derick's youngest child, born in 2017. Perhaps they'll eventually have more kids, but for now they're fine with their two sons. Jill even recently revealed that she uses birth control to ensure that there are no surprise kids on the way. "Children are a blessing, but that doesn't mean that at all costs you should have as many kids as possible," she said.
Samuel is 3 now.
