The Duggars are back on TLC, and Jill had a pretty big bombshell to drop on her enormous family on last night's 19 Kids and Counting Season 15 Episode 1.
What in the world do you think that could possibly be?
The premiere opened just a few weeks after Jill Duggar, 23, became Jill Dillard, and with Jessa Duggar, 22, preparing to wed Ben Seewald shortly.
Exciting times in Springdale, Arkansas, people.
"Married life is awesome," Derick Dillard, 25, told the cameras when he took a rare break from kissing Jill. "She's my best friend; we love being married."
With the exception of cooking too much and speaking too loudly (products of the environment she grew up in), Jill Duggar was loving life with Derick.
That doesn't mean she didn't miss the kids, of course, so Jill invited Johannah, 9, Jennifer, 7, Jordyn, 6, and Josie, 5, over to their house for a sleepover.
Derick admitted the experience gave him new respect for Jim Bob Duggar for being able to handle nine daughters and hoped to live up to the standard.
He'll have his chance to try soon enough.
Segue alert! Crashing Bible study at the family's house, Jill revealed to her mother Michelle Duggar, "Yesterday I kinda took something. Stole something."
Of course, what she took were pregnancy tests from her mother's bathroom cabinet ... and the third one came back positive. Jill Dillard is expecting!!
The big news came one day before the Dillards' one-month anniversary, and before their entire relationship had even reached the one-year milestone.

"If that's God's plan, I can see ourselves with 19 children," Derick said, and if you watch 19 Kids and Counting online, there's no doubting his sincerity.
So far, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have three grandchildren, all belonging to first-born Josh. He and Anna Duggar are also pregnant right now.
That will make five by the end of 2015, and it will be interesting to see if they reach the century mark (would take "only" 5.26 kids per kid) in their lifetime.
While Jana Duggar is definitely lagging (through no fault of her own) we don't expect Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald to wait long in adding to the tally.
Jessa is about as far from Vanderpump Rules' Scheana Marie as can be when it comes to wedding planning. She kept her affair as basic as possible.
This family knows how to stretch a dollar, and with the soon-to-be Seewalds needing somewhere to live as well as a wedding, it makes a lot of sense.
Courtesy of Grandma Duggar, they have a small house they can rent - the same place Josh and Anna Duggar moved into when they first got married.
They spent five years there before moving into a home of their own, so the place should suit Jessa and Ben just fine ... if they clean up all that mold.
Jill and Derick got the bigger house in Jim Bob's portfolio because it's closer to Derick's work at Walmart, but Jessa's not bitter about that in the least.
All she wants to do is marry Ben Seewald and possibly consummate the marriage at the church afterward. That's one of our favorite rumors of all time.
The Duggar parents often accompany their kids on dates in order to maintain "accountability" and "keep things from going in the wrong direction," per Jim Bob. The girls are fine with this, as being alone with men puts them in grave "moral danger." When the parents aren't available, their older siblings will often tag along, making every date a group date and a family affair.
Even in the kids' late teens and early 20s, mom and dad are creeping on their text messages. When Ben Seewald jokingly wrote to fiancee Jessa, "Give me a ring," Jim Bob actually jumped in on the group text, writing "No ring yet." With a smiley face emoticon. Seriously, he did that. Jim Bob needs his own Instagram so he can start posting screen shots of this stuff.
This moment you see here between Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard would not have been permitted until the couple was married. Side hugs are the preferred method of PDA in order to prevent any further temptation or hanky panky, as has been well documented on 19 Kids and Counting. The Duggars love their side hugs so hard. Any touching beyond that? Save it for your wedding night.
This is probably an obvious one if you know anything about the Duggars. The family does not smoke or drink. They do, however, enjoy the occasional sugary dessert or getting high on life and love.
Safe to say the Duggars are in the minority, having not read Fifty Shades of Grey (the movie adaptation of which they won't be seeing either, we're guessing). The Bible warns not to "think about gratifying the pleasure of the flesh," so instead the family studies Christian text and not E.L. James' erotic fiction. The Duggars' option is probably better-written.
Avert your eyes, Michelle Duggar! The family matriarch feels that dancing encourages "sensual" feelings, while Jessa Duggar has said that she feels modern music promotes "sex, drugs, all that type of stuff." Instead, the family chooses to play gospel music together.
Yes, seriously. There is Duggar-approved swimwear (it's conservative and not very revealing, spoiler alert) but when it comes to the beach, that's not happening. At all. Blame the general public. "It's just too hard for the guys to try and keep their eyes averted," Michelle explains. If we happened upon Kaley Cuoco doing beach yoga, we might see her point. But we also wouldn't complain.
Even if you took out the boozy parties and sexy nurses and cats looking to get frisky, Halloween would still be a no-go for the Duggars. According to the parents, magic and witches are "part of a demonic realm God wants us to stay away from," and this holiday qualifies. To each their own.
We don't actually know if there's a definitive rule against the use of birth control in the Duggar household, but it's clearly not something the family is thinking about, or using, ever. Just saying. Once those vows are exchanged, fornication and procreation tend to happen early and often, ensuring that the great state of Arkansas will never have a population shortage of really nice, quirky, family-first, side-hug loving human beings.
The End.
