The second grandchild of 19 Kids and Counting stars Jim Bob Duggar and Michelle Duggar, Michael Duggar was born in 2011 to Anna Duggar and the oldest Duggar child, Joshua Duggar.
His parents married in late September of 2008; their wedding was the subject of a 19 Kids and Counting (then called 17 Kids and Counting) episode titled "A Very Duggar Wedding."
In his early childhood years, he moved with his parents and siblings from Fayetteville, Arkansas, to Washington, D.C., where his father had been hired to head the political action committee of the Family Research Council.
His siblings are Mackynzie, Marcus, Meredith, Mason, and Maryella.
His aunt Josie Duggar (the nineteenth child born to Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar) is only one-and-a-half years his senior.
