Duggar Family News: Sex Addict Josh Duggar Accepted by Family; Fans Angry as sisters Jill & Jessa Duggar Struggle for ‘Counting On’ Ratings

28-year-old former reality TV star, Josh Duggar, has been accused of molesting under aged girls in his teen years, including four of his own sisters. As if this wasn't enough, he also held a premium account on infamous adultery site, Ashley Madison, as he admitted to cheating on his wife, Anna Duggar. Despite his sex scandals and subsequent shenanigans, the Duggar family seemed to have moved on as they were seen together on numerous occasions, recently being a close friend, Sierra Jo Dominguez's, birthday.

Meanwhile, Josh's parents, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, are doing their best to induct him back into the family and redeem his lost reputation. The couple posted pictures of Josh's son on their family Facebook page. They even posted Josh's favorite Bible verse but were quickly shot down by fans for supporting their perverted son.

Despite several efforts taken by his parents, the fans have only been upset and displayed their anger through comments on posts featuring Josh or even his name. However, Jim Bob still supports his son, amid all the rage and continues to post regular updates about Josh's children on his Facebook page.

The fans even went so far as to say that they do not want to see Josh in "Counting On" Season 2 episodes. However, the show already featured Anna in the premiere episode where she told the fans that the couple is taking therapy and positive steps to restore their marriage. Now the recent rumor says that Josh may feature in the show's second episode.

However, this appears to be a bad news for Jill & Jessa who are working hard to keep the show afloat. Seven advertisers have already taken a step back publically since the first episode of second season was aired. Now before the second episode comes on air, more advertisers have pulled their brands away from the Duggar clan.

If the advertisers continue to pull out of "Counting On," the show will not be able to make enough money for the network to keep it on air. As its fate hangs in balance due Josh's sex scandals, the family is making inroads for him to be back in the public eye, while risking the future of its only running reality show on TLC.
