    REBELLIOUS BEHAVIOR

    Jason introduced Maddie to the public in June after sharing PDA-filled photos with her.

    The Counting On alum posted a sweet pic of himself and Maddie on his Instagram Stories at the time.

    In the pic, originally posted by his then-girlfriend on her own Instagram Story, showed them smiling while wearing matching blue outfits.

    They apparently attended a wedding together , as Maddie gushed in the caption, “Best wedding date ever.”

    Jason shared the pic, adding, “I couldn’t agree more.”

    The pic was reposed on a Duggar message board, where fans expressed excitement to see Jason.

    Days earlier, he posted pics of him twirling Maddie on the beach.

    The TLC alum had on blue shorts and a white button-down shirt.

    He was barefoot, while Maddie wore a white sundress and no shoes.

    Jason spun her around on the shore as calm waves crashed behind them.

    Fans were stunned by the pics, noting that their behavior was strictly against Duggar rules.

    Unmarried children in the famous family are forbidden from being alone with members of the opposite sex without supervision.

    “Love this! Love that you’re also protecting her privacy!” one fan celebrated at the time.

    “Is this an announcement of courtship?” another inquired.

    “Who is she? Is she responsible for your new look?” questioned a third.

    “Jason! This is so precious! Hope y’all had a great time!” a fourth chimed in.
