Jessa Seewald Plays Favorites & Snubs Five-Year-Old Son Henry?
Former Counting On star Jessa Seewald is being called out online for playing favorites. Fans and critics have wondered if she has favorite children, based on what she chooses to post online. Now, she’s being accused of snubbing her five-year-old son, Henry Wilberforce Seewald. Keep reading to get the full update.
Jessa and her husband, Ben Seewald, have four children together. Spurgeon is six, Henry is five, Ivy will turn three in May, and Fern is six months old. Despite TLC’s 19 Kids & Counting and Counting On coming to an end, fans have still been able to keep up with Ben, Jessa, and their growing brood on social media. She happens to be very active on both Instagram and YouTube, so fans get to see plenty of photos and videos of the busy family.
While many fans think that Jessa is a wonderful mother to her four kids, others wonder if she treats all four of her children the same. For years, fans and critics have speculated that Henry is Jessa’s least favorite child. These claims have come from fans and critics who have watched closely to see what she posts online. Now, she might be encouraging these rumors with her recent social media activity.
Did Jessa Seewald forget Henry’s birthday?
On Instagram and YouTube, Jessa Seewald often documents the big milestones in her kids’ lives, including their birthdays. For her son Spurgeon’s birthday, she shared a YouTube video as they celebrated him for an entire week with exciting gifts each day. However, Henry just turned five on February 6. Amid his birthday, Jessa didn’t share a post on Instagram or create a YouTube video about his birthday week.
Sometimes, Jessa will share photos and videos after they celebrate. For instance, if they were going to visit Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar for a child’s birthday, she may post the weekend after the birthday. But now, it’s been over a week.
Jessa is still very active on social media right now and doesn’t appear to be taking a break. She has been documenting her daughter Fern’s milestones. In one new post, the little girl is celebrating her half birthday and looks to be preparing to crawl.
Jessa Seewald has also shared a progress update on their fixer-upper. This has sparked a conversation on Reddit about the Seewald kids and whether Jessa plays favorites.
One Duggar family critic writes, “Most of the time, I don’t care much about Jessa but what she did with Henry’s birthday is just sad… She forgot her kid, she made a post about a baby’s half birthday, but didn’t CARE about doing one for her 5 year old little boy.”
Another user points out, “He might not see what his mom does or doesn’t post on social media but he can definitely pick up on how she treats his siblings over him.”
