Former Counting On star, Jill Duggar’s husband Derick Dillard was slammed for calling washing dishes ‘woman’s work’. Derick has already been in hot water with the patriarch of the family and now it is safe to say he is on the out with female viewers.
The large Arkansas family was first introduced to viewers on 19 Kids and Counting, starring Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar and their 19 children. The large family is devout Christians that choose to live by strict standards, which include the girls not wearing pants, courtships, and dressing modestly. TLC cameras filmed as the ten boys and nine girls, including Joshua, twins Jana and John-David, Jill, Jessa, Jinger, Joseph, Josiah, Joy-Anna, twins Jedidiah and Jeremiah, Jason, James, Justin, Jackson, Johannah, Jennifer, Jordyn-Grace, and Josie started to grow up and date. There was a dark side in recent years when the eldest son, Josh, was accused of sexually abusing several of his sisters and a family friend when they were younger. The TLC show was canceled, but the network decided to give the older children a spin-off called Counting On.
Fans are finding it hard to find something redeeming about the fired TLC star especially after he called washing dished “women’s work” as seen as a hashtag in his recent Instagram post. Dillard posted a photo of his wife Jill washing dishes in their kitchen while also having their youngest son, Samuel strapped to her. The reality stars caption angered numerous followers and caused him immense backlash. Even though the father was trying to be sweet by saying that his son was helping out, he ruined it by adding the hashtag “Woman’s Work.” Check out Dillard’s controversialInstagram post below:
Fans were outraged and let the reality star know by saying that they were not sure if the choice of hashtags were the right ones. With another fan saying he was “rooting” for him until he read the post. Fans were not only left saddened but also angry at the reality stars’ poor judgment. Some followers asked why he was not helping his wife with house chores as she seemed to have her hands full with cooking dinner and taking care of a child. Some fans tried to see the post as a joke with Jill herself agreeing with them.
Funny or not, Dillard has been known for being great at stirring up controversy. This past December Dillard accused Jim Bob Duggar of making his daughter ask permission to visit at the family’s big house. Fans of the show feel that Dillard has done nothing but create a rift between his wife and the rest of her family. Hopefully, this latest stunt will teach Dillard a lesson in humility and maybe putting down the camera and lending a helping hand.
