'19 Kids and Counting': What Kirk Cameron Had to Say About Attending Jessa Duggar's Wedding
— -- Talk about a star-studded cameo.
Kirk Cameron revealed on his Facebook page yesterday that he attended "19 Kids and Counting's" Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald's wedding in Bentonville, Arkansas, on Nov. 1.
Cameron posted a pic with the happy couple and wrote, "Duggar Wedding Couple! Aren't they adorable? My daughters and I were invited to Jessa and Ben's wedding and we took this photo during the rehearsal dinner the night before."
Cameron continued: "They were bursting with anticipation! We flew to the Duggar hometown, not only to be part of the fun and excitement of honoring this precious couple, but as a father, I want my daughters to see what it looks like when a couple reserves their 'first kiss' for at the altar."
As reported the next day, Jessa, 22, and Ben actually saved their first kiss not for the altar at their wedding, but behind closed doors afterward.
The "Growing Pains" star, 44, added that this kind of "moral excellence and purity" is rare these days.
"It was beautiful, meaningful, and ... surprising! We were also invited to the Duggars house after for volleyball, campfire singing, and dessert till 1:30 am. We even got to worship together at church the next morning," Cameron wrote.
Cameron is set to star in a new film "Saving Christmas" out in select theaters on Nov. 14. The movie's site says the film is "an engaging story that provides a biblical basis for our time-honored traditions and celebrations."
Cameron has six children -- Jack, Isabella, Anna, Luke, Olivia and James.
