Jinger Duggar and Jeremy Vuolo Share Their First ‘I Love You’s

This season of Counting On is starting out with a whole lot of love.

Fans were officially introduced to Jinger Duggars’ new fiance Jeremy Vuolo and the two didn’t waste any time showing fans how their relationship was unfolding.

The couple got engaged just one month after they announced they were courting in June. In Tuesday’s episode, fans got to see how that came to be.

Vuolo made his first reality show appearance at the end of the episode when he talked to Jim Bob, Jinger’s father, to ask his permission to court the 22-year-old.

While the former soccer pro looked nervous about the conversation, he of course had no reason to worry as we all know both father and daughter said, “Yes.”

The young couple, now courting, had a moment to talk among themselves before the episode ended.

“I couldn’t be happier and wouldn’t want to be anywhere else than with you,” Vuolo told her.

“Jeremy, I’m so thankful for you,” she responded.

“I wanted you to know, instead of just letting you know … you know,” the 28-year-old athlete turned missionary said. “I love you.”

It was a happy moment for both of them.

“I love you,” she told him without hesitation.

They of course made the courtship official with a signature Duggar family side hug.
