Duggar Cousin Amy King Talks Relationship With Cousins
Fans of 19 Kids & Counting and Counting On might remember cousin Amy King. Her mother, Deanna, is Jim Bob Duggar’s sister. While Amy is technically related to Jim Bob and Michelle’s kids, she’s not very similar to them. She lives a different lifestyle. Amy has made it a point to say that she isn’t a Duggar.
Over the years, fans have noticed that the cousins may be drifting apart. Throughout the drama between Jill and Derick Dillard and Jim Bob and Michelle, Amy has been quick to side with Jill and Derick. She even encouraged Derick to keep talking about the famous family. For a while now, Jill and Amy have been close to each other.
Amy King reveals details about her relationship with Duggar cousins
In a new interview with ET, Amy opens up about the relationship she has with her cousins. Amy reveals that she often communicates with Jill, saying, “Jill and I text, not on a daily basis, but we text quite often. And we discuss things.”
Then, Amy says, “I think we are all just trying to find our path and we’re all just doing things differently. I’m doing things differently and I’m happy where I’m at. I’m happy for them. Things are definitely different, but I’m happy for everybody.”
Amy then goes on to say, “I’ve got a 9-month-old, a restaurant that’s expanding, a boutique that’s doing well. TV [in general] is just a whole lot of hustle and bustle. I want to be received as a genuine, kind person, and TV in general can give people a different perception of who someone is.”
Finally, she says, “I’m in a good place and I wish my family all the best. I have freedom and it is wonderful.” Amy also says that she’s “at peace.” She’s looking forward to seeing where her own little family goes moving forward.
