JANA Duggar’s brother Justin has been spotted in a rare photo from her wedding after straying away from the spotlight.
The Counting On alum married Stephen Wissmann, 31, in a surprise ceremony on Thursday.
Jana, 34 – Jim Bob and Michelle‘s eldest female Duggar child – had her siblings there for her big day, including Justin, 21, who’s distanced himself from the limelight in recent years.
Jeremy Vuolo, 36, posted a slideshow of photos from the nuptials – of which his wife, Jinger Duggar, 30, was a bridesmaid – on Instagram.
One snap captured Jeremy smiling alongside Justin and his wife Claire, 23, while in their seats.
The men wore collared buttoned-down shirts, with Justin sporting a suit jacket and Claire in a bright green dress.
Fans flocked to the comments to congratulate Jana, in which a video also showed her wearing a white bridal gown and standing beside her new husband at the altar.
SUPPORTIVE BROTHER
It was a seldom sighting of Justin, who hasn’t been seen in many photos on social media since the oldest sibling of the Duggar clan, Josh‘s child pornography scandal.
Josh, 36, was sentenced to prison in 2021 for downloading and possessing child sex abuse images.
Although his family was divided over who would support the disgraced star throughout his two-week trial, Justin remained by his brother’s side and appeared in the courtroom.
The U.S. Sun exclusively reported that Justin and Claire sat with Josh’s wife, Anna, 36, during some of the trial, which many of his siblings did not attend.
Josh appealed his conviction several times but was denied.
He is scheduled to be released in 2032.
Meanwhile, Justin has kept a low profile with his wife while living in Texas.
The last time he posted on Instagram was on Christmas Day in 2023, when he shared a snapshot of him and Claire posing with two ponies.
Justin didn’t explain the photo but wished his followers a Merry Christmas in his caption.
Duggar Family Tree
How many children and grandchildren do Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar have?

His previous post was almost a year earlier, when the 19 Kids and Counting alum shared progress pics from his RV renovation.
Justin and Claire also shared a clip of them walking their fans through the significant remodel on their YouTube channel.
The couple moved to Texas shortly after getting married in February 2021 to be closer to Claire’s family.
They have also been known to break Jim Bob’s strict marriage rules, including not rushing to have kids after saying “I do.”
Justin is one of 19 children, and many of his siblings have been quick to start their own families.
He and Claire haven’t shared any pregnancy announcements or future plans, leading fans to believe they aren’t too eager to follow in his parent’s footsteps.
