Counting On fans have begun speculating that Jana Duggar may be courting.

Jana, 31, is a fan favorite among the TLC show fans; among fundamental Christian circles it is rare for a woman to remain single into her 30s, and she still lives with her parents Jim Bob and Michelle.

However, new pictures show Jana spending Christmas with family friend Stephen Wissmann and his family, and one in particular showing her sitting close next to Stephen.

"They do look a bit coupley in that photo," shared another fan.

They follow strict guidelines in their day to day life, including no alcohol and no bare skin on show, and men and women are not allowed to be alone together unless married.

Kissing, hand-holding and other physical signs of affection are not allowed until a couple's wedding day, and all couples must have chaperones present on their dates.

The family found fame with their TLC reality series 19 Kids and Counting; they now star in spin-off show Counting On.
