They now share three kids together, Gideon, Evelyn, and Gunner, who arrived in May 2023.

It's going to work out. Everything's going to be fine.' So there was a lot that surprised me," she added.What Joy-Anna Duggar has shared about Austin Forsyth's career and passions:Away from the headlines, Austin Forsyth keeps himself busy in more ways than one. He works as a contractor, and over the past couple of years has moved away from renovating flip houses toward building new homes from the ground up. Construction aside, Forsyth is also an EMT and firefighter. Joy-Anna described her husband on The Duggar Family website, writing,"When he is not busy doing construction work or spending time with family, you can usually find him on the farm, bailing hay, or using one of his many skills as a Pilot or EMT/Firefighter."She also noted that Forsyth has a passion for investing in young men's lives, passing down the same skills his own father taught him. His hobbies include long range shooting, four-wheeling and camping. Joy-Anna herself grew up with eight brothers and has always leaned toward the outdoors over anything else.
