AceShowbiz - Josh Duggar and wife Anna are having a new addition to their family. Two years after the 29-year-old reality TV star's shocking sex scandals, he and his 28-year-old wife have announced that they are expecting their fifth child together.
The couple has made the surprise pregnancy announcement on the Duggar family website. In a lengthy message, they say their marriage is getting stronger than ever over the years, before announcing that they're expecting a baby boy.
"For nearly the last two years, we have quietly worked to save our marriage, focus on our children, and rebuild our lives together as a family. Doing so is never easy after a breach of trust," so the blog post begins. "We've learned that a life of faith and rebuilding a life together is simply done one day at a time."
"As we continue our journey as a family and rebuild our lives, we are delighted to share with you that we are expecting a new baby boy later this year," it continues. "Beauty comes from ashes and we cannot wait to see and kiss the face of this sweet new boy! - Josh & Anna."
The good news comes after it was revealed that Josh had been molesting five minors as a teenager including four of his sisters back in 2015. The "19 Kids and Counting" star also made some public confession to being addicted to pornography and being unfaithful to his wife Anna.
That year in August, Josh checked into a faith-based rehab facility in Rockford, Illinois. He completed his rehab stint in March 2016. He has kept a low profile after returning home from rehab.
Josh and Anna are parents to four children, Meredith Grace, Mackynzie, Michael and Marcus.
