A DARK CHAPTER IN THE DUGGAR'S HISTORY

Surprisingly, Josh Duggar also showed up at the gathering with his wife and children. The disgraced son was the reason why the family's show was canceled by TLC after he confessed to having inappropriately touched five minors.

Two of the victims were his own sisters, Jessa and Jill, who discussed the abuse they suffered at the hands of their brother during an interview with Megyn Kelly.

Aside from his predatory behavior towards minors, Josh also admitted being addicted to pornography and cheating on his wife.
