Another bad news hit the "19 Kids and Counting" clan.
Prior to the announcement of TLC that TV series featuring the Duggar family will no longer be on air, Amy Duggar and fiancé Dillion King were promised to have their wedding caught on camera and broadcasted for the benefit of the fans and followers of the show. In a recent social media post, however, King disclosed that the wedding is now off the air and no plans of the event being covered by the network in any other platform has been made, according to Radar Online.
"TLC [called] us yesterday stating they have decided that they will NOT be filming our wedding and they are 'glad they got to work with us'," Amy Duggar's fiancé told his fans and followers in social media. He added, "So, Amy and myself apologize that we will not be able to share our special day with you all on the TLC network."
Following the announcement of the cancellation of the broadcast of their wedding and his subsequent reaction to the news, King was later on criticized by his own followers in social media - with some even going as far as accusing him to be planning to "cash in" on the event instead of eyeing a romantic and enjoyable celebration with his future wife. Others, meanwhile, alleged that the couple felt too presumptuous in expecting - and even demanding - that TLC pay for their wedding. While King vehemently denied the accusations, Amy Duggar's fiancé opted to simply delete the Instagram post regarding the change of plans.
"I never said I was entitled to anything," he responded, referring to the accusations of some netizens regarding his intention to have their wedding day aired on TV. He added, "Nor have I ever thought I was famous or have ever tired to be. And again I'm not mad of their decision. They can make decisions for themselves it's their business." He then further insisted, via Starcasm, that he was in no way "bashing" TLC but merely "letting people know what was happening with that situation." King said, "I know what marriage is about, and I wasn't crying for attention. Believe me, I'm not upset. Just stating facts and letting everyone who has been asking know what's going on."
Although the couple received backlash for the allegedly "bitter" social media announcement of King, there remain a number of fans and followers who want to witness the event. Hence, both Amy Duggar and her fiancé decided to put up a YouTube channel for the benefit of those interested in the upcoming "19 Kids and Counting" family affair, according to Daily Mail.
"YouTube channel has been started," King wrote in an Instagram post which showed a snapshot of the said platform. He went on to say, "Be sure to go subscribe for upcoming videos, updates and crazy stuff that will only be posted on the channel."
