AceShowbiz - Josh Duggar's wife Anna Duggar was heartbroken after news broke that he had accounts in infidelity website Ashley Madison. In a sneak peek of the Sunday, December 20 episode of "Jill & Jessa: Counting On", the disappointed wife said that what the former "19 Kids and Counting" star did was a betrayal against her and people who eyewitnessed their marriage.
"I think it is such a betrayal for a spouse to go through what we're walking through," Anna who looked emotional said to the camera. "It was hard to realize that it was such a public thing and so, not only was it a betrayal against me, but it was also a betrayal against those that call themselves Christian because here we were as a Christian couple, everyone was able to see us get married and to vow before God to be loyal to each other, and that loyalty was broken."
The mother of four continued, "And so, for my heart, it was just like, 'How could this happen in our marriage?' Josh is my first love. He's my one and only." Anna then revealed that she turned to God during such a hard time, "I knew my only hope was to cling to my faith because I knew if I went off of what I was feeling, I would turn a mess into a disaster."
"In the stun and in the shock of everything, I was just praying, 'God, help me to know how to respond to all of this.' I didn't know what to do," Anna added. "I knew we needed help, and I was just praying God would give the help and the wisdom that we needed to know how to take the next step."
Josh's sister Jinger also praised Anna for her resilience. "Anna is amazing," said Jinger. "She displays to each one of us what it is to have unconditional love, and she's walking through this better than any one of us could have ever imagined."
