Following allegations that he used Ashley Madison's services, Josh Duggar has admitted being unfaithful to his wife Anna Duggar.

"I have been the biggest hypocrite ever. 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," Duggar said in his confession statement which carried by Daily Mail.

The data leaked by hackers showed two subscriptions on the name of Josh J. Duggar. Gawker had also reported that the address provided were of Josh's grandmother's home in Arkansas. The leaked data showed that the subscriber had a long sexual wish list.

The Duggar family landed in the eye of storm in May this year when allegations of minor sexual abuse resurfaced against 27-year old Josh Duggar. Duggar had allegedly molested minor girls as a teenager. Victims included two of his sisters. The Duggar family stood by their son through the episode but TLC decided to stop airing the family's popular 19 Kids and Counting.

Following the revelation that Josh's name is among the leaked Ashley Madison, his parents Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar reportedly said they were shocked and were praying for the family.

As for Josh, he confessed he had hurt family and friends.

"I brought hurt and a reproach to my family, close friends and the fans of our show with my actions that happened when I was 14-15 years old, and now I have re-broken their trust," he said.
