They may be putting on a happy front on Instagram and the 19 Kids And Counting family blog, but there’s still a bit of a feud brewing between sisters Jill and Jessa Duggar, RadarOnline has learned.
An insider told OK! magazine that Jessa is having a bit of a Jan Brady moment, because she’s tired of hearing “Jill, Jill, Jill.”
The source told OK! that their argument stems from the fact that Jessa was dating her now-husband, Ben Seewald, six months before Jill started dating Derick Dillard, but Jill beat her to the altar.
“Jessa is envious that Jill was the first Duggar daughter to get married,” the insider told OK! “All the attention surrounding Jill’s wedding was really getting under Jessa’s skin.

But the real root of the sibling rivalry, according to the magazine, is that Jessa is jealous Jill is pregnant already! And the fact that Jill got pregnant almost immediately after tying the knot didn’t help matters.
“Jessa feels like her sister keeps stealing her thunder,” the insider said.
As for Jessa, she has just one wish for the holidays this year: a baby! “Now all she wants for Christmas is a positive pregnancy test,” the source said.
The siblings have been in a bit of a rivalry recently. As previously reported by RadarOnline, Jill follows most of her family on Twitter, except for Jessa and Ben, leading many to believe there’s a bitter feud behind-the-scenes.
