Jill Duggar & Derick Dillard considered a protective order
During the interview, Jill opened up about how she and Derick Dillard had to threaten her father Jim Bob Duggar with a “protective order.” Though Derick and Jim Bob were friends before Jill started courting him, their friendship eventually fell apart. Much of this was due to their TLC contracts and the pitiful pay Jill and Derick received.
In the podcast episode, Jill shared, “But once we started having some differences, it got a little rocky there to the point where Derick had to have some really hard conversations with my dad and more recently [Derick] had to stand up for me … and said, ‘If you keep contacting her directly, I will have to file a protective order.’”
Currently, things are still rocky between Jill Duggar Dillard and her father Jim Bob Duggar. But she is hopeful for the future. She wants to see their relationship improve, but she knows it won’t be easy and that it won’t happen overnight. In the interview, Jill said, “We’re not rushing things either with my family. We want to have good relationships, we want there to be better trust.”
