The former “19 Kids and Counting” star admitted he was ashamed of the double life he’s led.

“Twelve years ago, as a young teenager, I acted inexcusably for which I am extremely sorry and deeply regret”, Duggar said in the May statement. “As with her in-laws, she is turning more to her faith than ever, she and Josh are probably praying around the clock right now, I would assume”. For all the reason Jessica shared I feel for her, and additionally the fact she is mere weeks postpartum weighs heavy on my mind. I would do anything to go back to those teen years and take different actions. Tell me how you would feel if someone cheated on your sister and brought so much disgrace to you and ur family.

Although the family confirmed Josh’s rehab check in, it still leaves many unanswered questions.

“We talked to him“. We watched him all the time. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”.

The hypocrisy dealing with the faith and family values he’s been espousing relates to the fact that Duggar had been in an executive position at the Family Research Council (FRC), and had his Ashley Madison accounts the entire time he held that position.

We will update this again should anything else come out, because of course it will.

Hopefully the dude will get some help because he needs a lot of it! That story appears in this week’s issue of the magazine, with Danica telling *+In Touch+ exclusively that Josh got violent during the two encounters.

So we know he’s somewhere-but where? And ALSO do you remember how one of the things Joshie said he was into on his Ashley Madison profile was “Gentleness”, along with “Bubble Baths For 2”, which we will never stop dying over?

The Washington Post reports that Josh’s parents have released a statement thanking fans for their support and apologizing for the shame Josh had brought on their family and their values.

In a statement on the Duggars’ website, the family said Duggar’s actions had “negatively affected so many others” and said he was seeking treatment. The source notes that Anna models her behavior on Duggar mom Michelle, who’s one of her primary (and exclusive) sources of counsel.

Reports are long-suffering wife Anna is now receiving counseling for her “heart and future” – and the family is praying that Josh comes to “complete repentance and honest change”.

The statement concluded with the Duggar clan saying they’ll continue to look to God and ask for prayers from others.
