In the sweet photo, the Counting On alums sat together on a wooden pew-style bench with Jason’s pal, Noah Robinson.  

Jason showed off his scruffy chin as he wore a long-sleeved pinkish shirt and a black cap on his head. 

He captioned the post: “Hanging.”

Jana, 33, donned a reddish sweater and ripped jeans.

The TLC star teased her bare knees as she crossed her legs.

She smiled at the camera as her blond hair flowed past her shoulders.  

THE DRESS CODE

While showing off her long legs to the camera, Jana broke one of the strict rules established by her parents, Jim Bob, 57, and Michelle, 56.

Jim Bob and Michelle are followers of the Institute in Basic Life Principles, or IBLP – an organization founded by disgraced minister Bill Gothard.

The Duggar family follows a strict dress code that requires women to dress modestly and only wear dresses or long skirts.

The rules did not permit women to display their legs or dress in a revealing manner.

THE CAMPING TRIP

This is not the only time the former 19 Kids and Counting star has resurfaced online.

Near the end of November, the 33-year-old star resurfaced in a family video from younger sister Joy-Anna, 26. 

Joy and husband Austin, 29, took their three children – Gideon, five, Evelyn, two, and newborn Gunner James – on an end-of-year camping trip.

The group was joined by Jana, who made her guest appearance while they were all gathered around a campfire to cook s’mores.

While leaning against a makeshift light pole, Jana bundled up in a green sweatshirt and black jeans for the chilly temperatures.

She smiled as she playfully barked: “I’m doing it!” 

Later in the video, Jana made another brief appearance as she walked out of the family’s recreational vehicle, the RV.

Jana is the only adult female Duggar sibling not married and still living in her parent’s home.

The TV star has lived a more private life and has not posted on social media since March 2022.

‘FLY THE NEST’

In January 2021, an insider told The U.S. Sun that Jana was desperate to move out of her family’s home but could not until she got married.

“Jana is very independent and more alpha compared to her sisters, but she can’t get a place of her own until she meets someone her family approves of,” the insider shared.

“The Duggars are so religious. They wouldn’t agree with her moving out and living alone, or living with a friend or boyfriend. It’s frowned upon, it’s ridiculous, but it’s how it’s always been.

The source continued: “She wants to fly the nest, but it’s hard as she has to find the right guy, which is a goal for all of the girls, and she hates being the last single sister.”
