While Josh Duggar is in rehab trying to pick himself up after admitting to cheating on his wife, and before that molesting his sisters as a teenager, his extended family members are speaking out.
The oldest Duggar child, who just welcomed his fourth child with wife, Anna, last month apologized for his “double life” in a statement after the Ashley Madison leak included his name.
"We are all shocked and broken and furious," a member of the extended family told ET. "Who did we spend Christmases with? Who have we grown up with? Who is this person? This is supposed to be a happy time, and there is a dark cloud over our family."
Earlier this week, porn star Danica Dillon recalled two “terrifying” sexual encounters she had with Josh.
The family member continued to say his “integrity is gone," adding, "It’s scary.”
“I hope he gets broken in rehab and gets the help he needs. I hope Anna finds the strength to make some changes,” the family member continued.
Josh has checked in to a long-term treatment facility for his issues. A second family member said they “don't think Josh will see that this is a big deal and be truly broken till [Anna moving out] happens," adding, “I bet my life on the fact that Josh has not come to true brokenness yet.”
