Duggar Update: Post-rehab, Josh pops up with his family at a friend's birthday bash

And now, Josh Duggar seems to be coming back to normal life---depending on what you think is 'normal' for him, of course. The 28-year-old former reality star dropped into a party with his family members on behalf of their close friend, Sierra Jo Dominguez. He was accompanied by his wife Anna and their four children.

The photo from the wedding planner's birthday party is quite interesting. You can see Marcus on top of Josh's shoulders, while his 28-year-old wife, Anna, is holding 13-month-old Meredith Grace.

Other members of the family in the photograph include sisters Joy-Anna, 18, Jana, 26, and Jessa (Duggar) Seewald, 23, with her husband Ben, 21.

This was quite a rare visit. After returning from his rehab centre, Josh Duggar has kept away from the public eye. A couple of personal scandals has been hounding him since last year.

The former '19 Kids and Counting' star had been tainted because of paedophilic confessions. He was then caught with a premium "guaranteed affair" subscription on the Ashley Madison site. The discovery made him admit that he had had a secret affair and had cheated on his wife Anna.

He then got into a faith-based rehabilitation program and returned only last March to his home in Arkansas. Even though his family's spin-off show 'Counting On' got selected for Season 2, he is not going to be part of it. Hence, the The following episodes, 'Jill and Jessa: Counting On' did not feature him, but Anna has made appearances in them, referring to her husband and their hopes for a stronger marriage.

"Personally, I have a lot of hope for our marriage, and so as I see Josh taking steps to do what's right, it brings a lot of joy and helps heal the pain that we walked through," she said.

"We are just taking it one day at a time, and working on strengthening our relationship as a couple and with our children."
