“19 Kids and Counting” star Josh Duggar admitted to having a pornography addiction and being unfaithful to his wife on Thursday, following reports the 27-year-old had a paid account on the recently hacked website Ashley Madison, an online dating service for married people looking to have an affair.
“I have been the biggest hypocrite ever,” said Duggar, who previously worked for the Family Research Council, a conservative lobbying group, in a statement. “While espousing faith and family values, I have secretly over the last several years been viewing pornography on the internet and this became a secret addiction and I became unfaithful to my wife.”
He later revised this statement, taking out previous references to having a “secret addiction” and viewing pornography on the Internet.
