Reality Star Josh Duggar Reportedly Had a Paid Ashley Madison Account

In 2013, reality TV star Josh Duggar of TLC’s 19 Kids and Counting was named the executive director of the Family Research Council, a conservative lobbying group in D.C. which seeks “to champion marriage and family as the foundation of civilization, the seedbed of virtue, and the wellspring of society.” According to Gawker, during that time, he also maintained a paid account on Ashley Madison, a web site created for the express purpose of cheating on your spouse.

In May 2015, Duggar was forced to resign after In Touch Weekly reported that he had molested five young girls (four were his own sisters) beginning in 2002.
