"We were prepared to depart and were determined to do so. ... There are certainly some problems there," the former star of 19 Kids and Counting told Us in February 2021. "We feel that we are now in a good place for our family and have a grip on our lives. ... Some people are more supportive than others. I think it fluctuates with a family of that size. Every family has their own drama, and when you have so many more people giving opinions or whatever, it can get chaotic."
