How did Josh Duggar spend his Christmas this year? According to the Rockford Scanner, a local website based out of Rockford, Ill., the disgraced reality star’s family may have paid him a visit in rehab.
The Duggar family’s private plane flew into Rockford airport from Springdale, Arkansas, on Thursday, December 24, according to the website’s Rickie Traeger. He reports seeing Josh’s brother John David Duggar, who is a pilot, as well as a woman with wavy hair.
Josh, 27, is currently checked into a faith-based rehab center in Rockford for long-term treatment. In November, a plane owned by Duggar Aviation similarly flew into Rockford just before Thanksgiving.
The eldest Duggar son checked into rehab in August, just six days after confessing to cheating on his wife of seven years, Anna.
“I have been the biggest hypocrite ever,” he wrote after hackers released stolen data from cheating website Ashley Madison, which showed two subscriptions under his name.
It’s not the only controversy Josh was involved in this year — before the cheating scandal broke, it was revealed that he’d molested five underage girls when he was a teenager. His sisters Jill and Jessa were among his victims.
In a TLC special that aired earlier this month, Anna opened up about her side of the very public cheating scandal and her hopes that they could save their marriage.
“It was definitely a hard thing, and I think it was such a betrayal for a spouse to go through what we’re walking through — and … it was hard,” she said on part one of Jill & Jessa: Counting On. “It was hard to realize that it was such a public thing, so not only was it a betrayal for me, but it was also a betrayal against those who call themselves Christian, because here we were as a Christian couple and everyone was able to see us get married and to vow before God to be loyal to each other. And [then] that loyalty was broken.”
