Josh Duggar News 2015: Disgraced Reality Star Enters Rehab Following Ashley Madison Scandal [VIDEO]
It looks like there's hope after all. It is being reported on Wednesday that scandalized star Josh Duggar has entered a long-term treatment center after he confessed to cheating multiple times on his wife, Anna Duggar. It was discovered this week that the reality television star had a secret account with the infidilety website, Ashley Madison.
Josh is apparently seeking treatment for his "porn addiction." Earlier this summer he also admitted to sexually abusing four of his sisters, including Jill and Jessa Duggar, along with a babysitter when he was a teenager back in 2002 and 2003.
According to Us Weekly, Josh's parents Jim Bob and Michelle shared the news about their son with their fans in a statement made on their website.

The wrote, "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 couple added, "Yesterday Josh checked himself into a long-term treatment center," they shared. "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."
Josh allegedly paid $1,000 to use the Ashley Madison site for almost two years while he was married to his wife Anna Duggar. A credit card in the name of Joshua Duggar and a billing address that matches the home of Duggar's grandmother was used to pay for the site between February 2013 and May 2015.
So far, Anna herself has not made any public comments about the scandal.
