AceShowbiz - Josh Duggar enters a treatment center to seek help for his problems after admitting to porn addiction and being unfaithful to his wife, Anna. InTouch magazine reports he checked into a faith-based rehab, similar to the place where he sought refugee when he was a teenager after he confessed to molesting underage girls including his sisters.
His parents, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, wrote on the family's blog, "We are so thankful for the outpouring of love, care and prayers for our family during this most difficult situation with Josh. As parents we are so deeply grieved by our son's decisions and actions. His wrong choices have deeply hurt his precious wife and children and have negatively affected so many others. He has also brought great insult to the values and faith we hold dear."
The "19 Kids and Counting" couple continued, "Yesterday Josh checked himself into a long-term treatment center. For him it will be a long journey toward wholeness and recovery. We pray that in this he comes to complete repentance and sincere change."
"In the meantime, we will be offering our love, care and devoted support to Anna and our grandchildren as she also receives counsel and help for her own heart and future. During this time we continue to look to God - He is our rock and comfort," they concluded. "We ask for your continued prayers for our entire family."
The news about his rehab came hot on heels of a report suggesting that Josh had sex with a porn star twice while his wife was pregnant with their fourth child. The adult star named Ashley Lewis or better known as Danica Dillon described their intercourse as "rough," "traumatic," and "terrifying."
Josh Duggar was first outed as a cheater after his account on Ashley Madison, a website that caters to the needs of married people looking to have fun on the side, was exposed.
Anna and her parents kept quiet about the scandal, but her brother Daniel Keller didn't hold back when it came to his distaste for Josh. Daniel bashed his disgraced brother-in-law in a comment section on a Facebook post written by Josh's sister Jessa Seewald.
"You have to confess and forsake your sin to have mercy. Not sin confess and repeat," Daniel said. "Confessing and getting caught are two different things...You want to know what happens when you cover ur sin maybe you should go read ur bible instead of beating people over the head with it."
"I told her I would go get her and her children stay [with] me," Daniel also wrote. "She said she's staying where she's at. But I won't stop trying to get that p** out of our family."
Daniel also slammed his parents who chose to stay silent, saying that they were "more interested in how there (sic) daughter getting a divorce will make [them] look then (sic) they are in trying to truly get josh some help and getting Anna and the kids out of there till he has gotten that help."
