JANA Duggar has been spotted in Italy with her brother James as the two have splurged on a dream trip through the romantic vacation destination.
Although Jana‘s fans think the star should stay in Italy forever instead of going back home to her family in Arkansas.

Jana’s brother, James, took to his Instagram Story to post new clips of his trip in Italy.
They visited the Pantheon and the Fontana di Trevi-Rome and bought gelato.
The Duggars’ fans had a lot to say on an online thread about Jana’s adventures abroad.
One fan commented: “If I were Jana I would not get on the plane home.”
Another sarcastically posted: “Well, I didn’t have Jana overstaying the visa waiver program on my bingo card for this year, but sure, why not? Could be exciting!”
Yet a third added: “I will fully support a Go Fund Me to keep Jana in Italy!”
REBEL ON THE RUN
Before heading to Italy, James was also spotted in London.
The reality star took to his Instagram Stories on Wednesday to snap pictures of him sitting on the plane before takeoff and after landing in the rainy city.
The TV personality captioned his post: “Next stop, London.”
James also posted a photo while walking down the London streets, with double-decker buses and black taxis in the background.
The TLC star also snapped a pic of his pub lunch.
His vacation came as a bit of a shock, though, as his parents Jim Bob and Michelle have strictly forbidden their children from living in or visiting major cities while growing up.
JINGER’S FREEDOM
James’ trip followed his sister Jinger’s tell-all book release, which she flew to New York City to celebrate.
The autobiography, Becoming Free Indeed, details her life growing up in her parent’s strict household and the damage she incurred from their inoperable rules.
The TV personality threw shade toward her family throughout her trip to NYC, sharing various posts of herself walking the streets and wearing jeans, yet another forbidden choice.
But James has appeared to support his sister’s breakout from the fundamentalist community, as he has “liked” all of her photos shared while in New York.
FAMILY RULES
Back in 2012, in an installment of 19 Kids and Counting, Jinger gushed over The Five Boroughs and said she refused to “live three hours out from civilization.”
Then in March 2013, matriarch Michelle made it clear that she did not approve of her daughter moving to Empire City.
The mom of 19 told Radar Online: “Jinger didn’t mean she wanted to move to New York City.
“She meant that she wants to live closer to a city. We’re talking right near a city, but not New York City.
“Jinger meant she wanted to live 15 minutes from a Walmart. We live so far out of town on 20 acres, but Jinger wants to live closer to town, so she doesn’t have to drive so far to go shopping,” she claimed.
Before Jinger’s older brother was sentenced to 151 months in prison for child pornography charges, Josh Duggar, 34, moved to Washington, DC with his wife and kids.
Michelle suggested her daughter could visit the nation’s capital on an extended trip at the time.
“Jinger would love to spend time with her brother and all their children in Washington.
“New York City is way above what we would ever consider a city where she should move!”
