Joshua James "Josh" Duggar (born March 3, 1988) is an American television personality, political activist, and former used car salesman known for his appearances on the reality television series, 19 Kids and Counting which focuses on the life of the Duggar family. The eldest of Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar's nineteen children, Duggar is the former executive director of FRC Action, a lobbying PAC affiliated with and sponsored by the Family Research Council.
Revelations that Duggar had molested five girls and had been a member of the website Ashley Madison led to the cancellation of 19 Kids and Counting on July 16, 2015. Duggar's publicity woes were named one of the "10 Big Scandals of 2015" by USA Today while the Washington Post listed Duggar as one of the "15 People the Internet Hated Most in 2015".
Pornographic film actress Danica Dillon filed a suit alleging she had been sexually assaulted by Duggar after he paid her for sexual intercourse. The case was later dropped by Dillon, though she insisted she had witnesses and photos able to corroborate her story. She agreed not to refile.
Duggar was born Joshua James Duggar in Tonitown in Washington County in northwestern Arkansas, to James Robert and Michelle Annette Ruark Duggar. The first of nineteen children, he was reared in a conservative Christian home. Duggar was homeschooled and passed Arkansas' state test for a general equivalency diploma at the age of sixteen. He did not attend college.
