Michelle Duggar Gets Into Verbal Altercation with Paparazzi After Bailing Kendra Duggar Out of Jail; Michelle Claims She’s “Protecting Children”

“What in the H-E-double hockey sticks are you doing here!?”

A new video has surfaced showing the aftermath of Kendra Duggar‘s (short) stint in jail on Friday, which included Duggar Family matriarch Michelle getting into a verbal altercation with a paparazzi photographer who was parked on the road outside the Duggar Family’s compound in Arkansas.

The video– posted by TikToker @Shabba.com— shows Michelle wearing the same clothes as she did when she bailed Kendra out of jail following Kendra’s arrest for endangering the welfare of a minor and false imprisonment. (Michelle’s son Joseph— who is married to Kendra— received the same charges as Kendra but had to stay in jail due to his being charged with child molestation earlier that week.) 

In the video, Michelle— phone in hand— is shown yelling at the paparazzi photographer, insisting that it’s not right that he is filming and making money off the situation, especially when there are kids around. Michelle also insists that she’s “protecting children right now.”

"If it's a boy, I can promise you he WON'T be named Jim or Bob!"
“Suddenly you’re interested in ‘protecting children,’ Ma?”

When the photographer asks Michelle what “they” (i.e. Joe and Kendra) were doing to get arrested, Michelle becomes enraged. The mother of 19 screams “None of your business!” as her eyes bulge. 

The photographer (who mistakenly thought that Kendra was Michelle’s offspring while Joe was her son-in-law) told Michelle that Joseph “was doing something way worse.”

“NO!” Michelle yells back. “You don’t have the right to be here!” 

“If ANYONE is gonna make money off of exploiting our children, it’s gonna be US!”

The clip fades out and then comes back to show what is likely what happened right before the scene we just watched. Michelle is seen scampering up a small hill (holding a water bottle and a bag).

She knocks on the man’s car window and he asks her to do an interview. Michelle refuses and tells him, “You cannot be here!” 

“You are interfering with CHILDREN!” she tells him angrily. “…shame on you!” 

The paparazzi photographer then informs Michelle that he’s “here for press,” even daring to call her “mom.” 

“I’m about to whisper-scream some very PG-13 words at you, Mister!”

“You will go! You will not ask me anything! You will have to talk to someone else!” Michelle says. “Shame on you!” 

(In the comments section of the post on TikTok, the photographer stated he was on a public road.)

This is the first time Michelle has been seen since the news broke last week that her son Joseph (and later daughter-in-law Kendra) was arrested. In addition to the child endangerment and false imprisonment charges, Joe is also facing a charge of Lewd and Lascivious Behavior– Molestation of a Victim Less Than 12 Years Old, as well as a charge of Lewd and Lascivious Behavior Conducted By a Person 18 Years or Older. Last week, an alleged victim came forward and claimed that Joe molested her when she was nine years old and on vacation with him and her family in 2020.  

Michelle and her husband Jim Bob have not yet released a public statement.

  1. Michelle Duggar claiming to protect children is about as laughable as when Jenelle Evans photographed herself holding up a giant “Save the Children” sign…


  2. These people are incapable of taking responsibility for their offspring!
    When the oldest son was arrayed she dared blame his wife- this time with Joseph she blames Satan- but they are Satan!
    He admitted to it! This is outrageous!
    I think child molesters are the lowest form of life!


  3. Let’s not forget that Michelle is the same woman who instituted ‘blanket training’ with her own children.

    She’s been masquerading as a ‘good, God-fearing woman’ for decades, but the mask was always bound to slip eventually.


  4. Hey, Meech, where’s your little baby voice? Could it be that your baby voice is fake? Could it be that you really are a vicious shrew like several people have described?

    Michelle makes me sick. She wasn’t raised in this crap cult and she KNOWS better. All the shame is on her and her creep of a husband.

    Which creepy Duggar dude is going to get caught for being a PDFile next?


  5. “I’m protecting children”. Oh? Where were you between 2000-2003 when your oldest son was molesting little girls?


    1. HER OWN CHILDREN. HE WAS MOLESTING HER OTHER CHILDREN. VILE! She wants to talk about Satan, she BIRTHED DEMONS.


  6. Watching this family’s downfall is enjoyable to watch, poetic justice really. I just wish people didn’t have to get SA’d in order for all the skeletons to come out. I hope people are ripping her apart and calling her out, she deserves every bit of it. She raised two pedos, and those are the only ones we know about. There are more. Mark my words. Lock them all up.


  7. Protecting children. Just like she protected her own daughters from their molester of a brother who groped them (one of them was five!) And the way she protected that girl from being molested by Joe. (Well, maybe she isn’t completely responsible for that, he’s just a sh*tbag)

    And right back at you, Michelle. Shame on YOU!!!


  8. You can’t promote your parenting by speaking engagements and books and then cry foul when people question you after 2 of your kids end up locked up. They liked the attention when they were getting praise but not now that they’re being scrutinized. Typical.


  9. Not saying that their parenting was right, I am just going to say that a lot of these comments are too into how she raised 2, so far, pedophiles.

    I watch a lot of true crime on YouTube. There is so much filth going on everywhere that even if they taught their kids differently, or more like the usual, having so many kids, one of them was bound to be a predator. It happens to so many normal families. Most families have some sort of man and or woman that have a secret like that and probably have gotten in trouble for it and or hasn’t been found out yet.


    1. Or their grandfather was a pedophile and it runs in the family. They should have protected their kids from him, they didnt. Amy might be obnoxious, but its now obvious she was right about the grandfather stuff.


    2. It happens with far greater frequency in families that live and teach certain extremes though. This is a proven fact, regardless as to whether or not religion is the basis for that life or those teachings.


    3. You are so right about the filth going on in our country at the moment. Just in general, so many Americans have lost their work ethic and moral compass. It’s not by any means is limited to religious fanatics. However, religious fanaticism of any kind is dangerous whether it is Christians, Muslims or whatever. In the big picture today, Joe Duggar is a minor incident.


  10. Where is the eye bulging outrage of raising 2 pedophiles? She just skips right over that part.

    To act like she is some righteous protector of children is ridiculously offensive. SMH I can’t even with these people.


    1. She’s had THREE pedophiles live in her home.
      (and several people who have faced certain things who regularly visited and stayed in their home, not to mention virtual strangers they have come and stay in their homes.)

      JB’s dad. They protected him too. (He lived with JB and his children; JB’s sister lived with her mom and dad, with her daughter.)
      JB, Michelle, JB’s sister, and their mother all chose the same “methods” of “protecting children” with the known perpetrators in their homes.


      1. Hey, don’t forget their friend Caleb who was shacking at the Duggar house for a while…he was also convicted of terrible, horrible crimes.

        Plus their “dear Leader” Gothard….do I even have to start about him?


  11. I don’t get why he didn’t call her out for protecting children. Like ma’am… you let your daughters abuser live with you guys with no consequences, AND you supported him during his trial??! Protecting whose children?! The fly on the wall? I wish someone would just say it straight to her face. She’s an enabler and she just turns a blind eye. Probably even blames the children for showing too much skin and enticing the boys. Fucking bitch.


  12. The sheer audacity of raising (at least) two pedophiles, prioritizing them over the safety of your own daughters even though they were some of the victims, and then screaming about “protecting the children.”

    Never forget that this absolute failure of a mother voiced robocalls to spook people about trans women as if the call wasn’t coming from inside her own house.


  13. The entitlement she feels. He is on a public road.
    Second, she went out to have a very agressive talk with someone so loud the children in the house might have heard her.


  14. I am sorry but if the kids were locked in their rooms, then they should be charged. WTH would they do if there was a fire and they couldn’t get them out of the locked room. Any person that does that should be charged, period……


  15. SHAME ON YOU, MICHELLE. You raised and protected at least 2 p3dos and I’m fairly certain those two are not the only ones in your family


  16. When Michelle says “she’s protecting children”, what she really truly means is she wants to use the issue to vilify people she believes to be less worthy. Thats what these people are bred for and taught to do, use the Bible to bully people for their own gain. She’s more than fine torturing and punishing others for her beliefs why wouldn’t we think she’s capable of doing it to her own children, behind closed doors?


  17. Uh oh, someone hit a nerve! These two say nothing when the golden son did and is charged with all of the horrific things that he was convicted of, but Joe admits that he did something absolutely disgusting and Michelle comes unglued. Now they can’t keep denying that their way (cause it certainly isn’t God’s way!) may not be the best. JB and Michelle are both narcissistic in their own way and are really beginning to reap what they sowed.


  18. Here’s the thing. My ex husband locked my son in a room and I called cps about it and they didn’t even care, they didn’t even question him. Kinda sounds like they were doing that same thing with their kids..


    1. Investigators used the door thing to take custody, so they can be questioned (uncoached) to find out if their Dad has SA’d them. More charges could drop if one or all of those kids were abused in other ways.


  19. If the situation wasnt so disgusting this would be comical. So Michelle wants to protect children from rhe paparazzi, but she draws the line at protecting children against molestationby her sons🙄🙄🙄🙄I do agree that the children shouldn’t be stalked by paparazzi, but Michelle claiming to protect children is a load of shit.she’s quite pathetic


  20. The “none of your business” tells me that she fully believes those charges are unfounded. She’s still 100% bought in on that cult and it’s so sad. CPS needs to check on the kids that are still in her home.


  21. First of all, how dare her say shame on you. The shame is on her and her husband and there religious / cult beliefs. They’re the ones that taught their children and their spouses how to raise their kids locking them in their rooms, shame on you michelle second of all what children is she protecting by covering up everybody’s actions, you’re not protecting anybody’s children.You idiot
