Another Duggar who stars on 19 Kids and Counting has gone courting!

Josiah Duggar, 18, has entered a "courtship" -- a moral, older-fashioned, chaperoned process that prepares a couple for marriage and disallows physical activity -- with 17-year-old Marjorie Jackson, People reported.
"It's been going very well," Josiah told People. "I met Marjorie a few years ago, when I was taking Spanish lessons at her house and I was very impressed with the way she was with her siblings and her love for the Lord."
The pair reportedly began courting on April 6, which marked the same day his 23-year-old sister Jill Duggar and 26-year-old brother-in-law Derick Dillard welcomed a son named Israel David into the family.
Josiah became acquainted with Marjorie while taking Spanish lessons from her mother Analucia, according to the magazine.

Josiah, who works for his father Jim Bob Duggar's construction company, said Marjorie stole his attention during a December mission trip to El Salvador.
"She really caught my eye," Josiah admitted. "That is really where I noticed her."
Marjorie, on the other hand, reportedly took a "liking" to Josiah a while ago.
"I met him at Spanish class a few years back," she told People. "For me it was an immediate thing, I have always admired him and his family."
The TLC reality series 19 Kids and Counting airs on Tuesday nights at 9PM ET/PT.
