But where was Josh Duggar for the past two years? Read on to find out.

What happened to Josh Duggar?

In May 2015, In Touch Weekly reported that Josh Duggar had molested five underage girls when he was a teenager. It was later revealed that the four molested girls were Josh’s sisters and the fifth was a babysitter and the incident was not properly reported to the authorities.

After the scandal broke out, TLC cancelled 19 Kids and Counting. Josh resigned from his position at the Family Research Council and publicly apologized.

In August 2015, Josh was also named as a member of Ashley Madison, a website for married people to pursue infidelity outside of their marriage. However, he later admitted to cheating on his wife and later checked into a rehab to treat his sex addiction.
