Michelle And Jim Bob Duggar decided to show their daughter, Jessa, that she and Ben Seewald aren’t the only couple who enjoy public displays of affection. Just a few days after Jessa posted her intimate photo with her new husband, her parents texted her a surprise. Apparently, they decided to create their own version of the now-popular black and white photo. Earlier today, the 19 Kids & Counting reality TV star posted the picture with a heartfelt message to her loving parents. Jessa shared the image via Instagram , along with a message.
My parents texted me this picture! This year marks 30 years of marriage, and they’re still in that ‘honeymoon’ stage! It’s great to see older married couples still so madly in love! I love you Mom & Dad! @duggarfam.”
Jessa and Ben tied the knot on Saturday, Nov. 1 at the First Baptist Church in Bentonville, Arkansas. So, their parents’ picture comes just one day after their one-week anniversary. According to People magazine , the couple opted for a more intimate first kiss behind closed doors as opposed to sharing their intimate moment in front of their wedding guests.
However, Jessa hasn’t had any reservations about public displays of affection going forward. On Nov. 5, she posted her black and white picture with Ben. The picture has definitely become a fan-favorite garnering more than 136,000 likes. “It’s great living life with your best friend! @ben_seewald ,” she captioned.

The memorable moment has hit shortly after Jessa and Ben’s sex scandal allegations, which she also addressed via Instagram. She posted a response to the allegations from a biblical perspective. “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good,” she captioned.

Although the allegations may have been a bit disheartening for Jessa, it doesn’t seem like anything is going to put a damper on her newlywed life.
