DUGGAR fans were shocked when Michelle wore forbidden pants during a recent Los Angeles getaway with her daughter Jinger.
The 55-year-old left her home in Arkansas without her husband Jim Bob, 56.

Earlier this week, The Sun exclusively shared photos of Michelle and her children Jinger, 28, Jana, 32, Jason, 21, and James, 20, in Los Angeles.
The group were all smiles as they soaked up the sun and went to church after arriving the night before.
During the outing, Michelle wore black capri pants, a black and white striped shirt and sneakers.
The casual look contrasts sharply with the usual long skirts that Michelle wears.
The photos quickly made their way to Reddit, where Counting On fans admitted to being shocked that the Duggar matriarch broke Jim Bob’s strict rules by wearing pants.
SHOCKED FANS
The original Reddit user wrote, “Mother is wearing pants?!? »
Another asked, “Is this the same woman who made TLC BLUR HER KNEES?!? »
A third chimed in: “My question: ‘When did mom buy these pants?’ »
A following Reddit user joked that the trip allowed Michelle to explore different lifestyle choices, writing, “Is this Michelle’s rumspringa? »
Others criticized Michelle for breaking the rules she once imposed on her daughters.
One angry fan commented, “What a disgusting excuse for a mother. Just a few years ago, her adult daughter was crying with guilt over her choice to wear pants. Now mom has to jump on the bandwagon.
The user continued, “Jim Bob and Michelle get hyper every time they’re about to miss anything. What dumb “beliefs” to constantly throw them out the window every time they’re jealous of someone who likes something they don’t like – attending college sporting events, erecting huge Christmas trees, or women wearing stupid capris. The only value they are consistent with is their attention value and themselves.
An additional fan wondered if Michelle’s decision to wear pants is a sign that her relationship with Jim Bob is over, writing, “Wonder if Jim Bob is served right now. Michelle has finally regained her freedom!
JINGER VISIT
The Duggar matriarch visited Jinger after the 28-year-old snubbed her parents and siblings by going on a skiing trip to the East Coast instead of moving to Arkansas for Christmas.
Jinger has chosen to distance herself from her family in recent months following her brother’s shocking child pornography case and guilt charge.
While the entire Duggar family celebrated the holidays in Arkansas, the podcast host and her husband Jeremy Vuolo, 33, traveled to Pennsylvania with their daughters to be with her in-laws over the holidays.
JOSH’S VERDICT
Michelle and Jim Bob’s eldest son, Josh, 33, went on trial months ago in his child pornography case.
Josh was found guilty earlier in December after a nearly two-week trial.
The former reality TV star faces 20 years in prison on each count.
