Jonah Johnston is his family's eldest biological child at 21 years old, and, according to his TLC bio, he was "the average teenager, juggling marching band, driving lessons and JV soccer."
Jonah has grown up a lot in front of the cameras. It's no surprise then, that when he turned 21 in December 2020, he was met with a tidal wave of positive comments from fans on Instagram, per TV Shows Ace. Part of growing up is also dating his first girlfriend, Ashley, and introducing her to his family. At first, his parents didn't exactly warm up to his new love, per Distractify. Ashley lives in North Carolina, while Jonah is in Georgia, making things more complicated. Eventually, though, Amber said she noticed a "renewed energy and motivation" in her son whenever Ashley was around. However, at the beginning of Season 8, Trent and Amber thought the couple should pump the brakes. Ashley revealed she was considering moving in with Jonah, which didn't ultimately happen.
To make things even more interesting, Trent and Amber allegedly gave Jonah a three-month timeline to move out, according to Hollywood Life. His parents claimed Jonah was "cruising" through life, but he disagreed, saying he has a job and pays bills. According to his LinkedIn, he's selling cars at Butler Toyota. Still, his mom remained firm. "If you don't start training yourself financially it's not going to be good," Amber said. "We will have to sit back and watch you fail." Dramatic!
