Tensions are mounting in Duggarville. Jed Duggar seems to be snapping at fans on Instagram after getting called out for the way he reacted to his sister Jill Duggar’s new upcoming tell-all book. Could it be that Jed is feeling the heat now that so many of the family’s skeletons are being dragged out of the closet?

“I can’t help but feel bad for your parents,” one person wrote. “I cannot imagine my children writing tell-all books about family. Here’s the thing Jill, NO family is perfect. Not one. And yes, while most do not have reality TV shows, you would also not have the opportunity to profit from your story.”
Jed caught some flak from a fan who saw him siding with Jill’s critics.

“Excuse you, but you don’t know our family at all,” Jed shot back. “Please don’t make assumptions about things that 100% none of your business. The true shame is on you.”
She also highlighted some of the ways the Duggars have tried to silence Jill over the years.
" Jim Bob has Jill’s siblings believing that she’s dangerous and a liar. He told them she’s lied about the abuse — allegedly," Katie wrote in part of her lengthy response, adding that Josh had referred to Jill as “a snitch that ratted him out” in the past.
“Jill is the brave truth teller that threatens these men’s reign of terror against their wives and women. Keep on going, Jill.”
Jill has more supporters than critics.

Hopefully Jill is feeling that support ahead of her book release.
