Back in May, the Josh Duggar molestation scandal rocked the world of reality television by shattering the image of one of its most beloved families. The 19 Kids and Counting clan was still reeling from the shock of that scandal when it was revealed this week that Josh cheated on his wife with the help of the adultery-facilitating website, Ashley Madison. Parents Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar have issued a statement addressing Josh’s latest indiscretions, but insiders say that may be the last we’ll hear from the family for a very long time: “We’re all hunkered down over here,” a family insider tells People magazine. “It’s just a mess, it’s a whole mess. We don’t even know what the truth is anymore. It’s insane.” “I would assume [Josh] feels like his life is ruined. It will be such a steep and practically impossible climb to come back from this.” The insider adds that the family is living in complete isolation at their compound in Arkansas, afraid to even go outside for fear of being photographed by lurking paparazzi. And of course, things are rather awkward at Casa de Duggar these days, as the family is reportedly stunned by Josh’s behavior: “It’s like he’s a completely different person from who they thought he was,” says the source. “They’re still trying to reconcile all that they know is good about Josh, whom they will always love and adore, with what they’ve learned now.” Despite all of this, insiders say Anna Duggar will not even consider divorcing Josh . We wonder if she’ll be singing a different tune once the inevitable D.C.-area mistresses start coming forward. View Slideshow: Josh and Anna Duggar Photos: Through the Years
