Josh Duggar Part 9: Adult Film Star Lawsuits are so Godly

[Bad Wolf]

Nevada has legalized prostitution outside the cities. Unfortunately, there are still the women on the streets who are unprotected.

Just has to share a moment I had to today out while getting my haircut. Somehow the subject turned to the Duggars. We started talking about Josh's different problems and a lady wheels around and says,"The nut doesn't ever fall from the tree. He is following right down the path of his father. That man is disgusting!" She also wanted to know why he (Josh) was never forced to deal with any of the shitstorm he caused. He drops these bombs and runs in to hiding leaving his wife to deal with the fall out. She said no man who can't even show his face after dropping such bombs is worth her time of day.

Oh how I wish she could have spoken to Anna. But I don't think it would have helped. It was hilarious as she just blurted out exactly how she felt about the family.

Then she calmly apologized and turned back to getting her haircut.

I always had a feeling that Jim Bob was a cheater and had outside kids.  I don't know why.

The mind boggles at the idea that 19 children may not have been enough for this loser.

Is JB allowed out alone? The kidults have to go in pairs don't they? JD seems to go out by himself, but I've only seen the others out en masse. If I were Mechelle, I'd make him take an accountability buddy.

Whenever speculation turns to which kid will bolt first my mind always goes to Michelle. How awesome would it be if she woke up one day and said "Screw you Jim Bob, I'm OUT!" I know, I know....but it's a fun thought.

From the site that has had some blind items about Josh, but this isn't a blind item.

Quote

Josh Duggar still has a lot of time remaining in his rehab treatment. Apparently is takes a lot of time to get you back on the Bible and off of porn stars. The thing is though, when you are in a confined space for so long, you meet people. The people are in the place for the same reasons you are. Josh Duggar has met someone and the people who have seen him say his marriage to Anna is over. His family already knows it. He wants to be with this new person. The only person who does not see it or want to believe it is Anna. When she visited Josh it was two fold. One, she wanted to plead her case and the other was to get some more money to live on. Josh’s family control the funds and Anna is not getting the amount of money she was getting when Josh was home with her. I guess he gave her a lot to make up for all the money he was spending on having sex with porn stars and escorts. Anna wants to be married to Josh. She thinks she can talk him into staying married to her.

[Childless]

I don't know if he actually has another perspective spouse on the side, but I know for a fact he doesn't want to be married to Anna.  If he did, he never would have cheated.  I wish Anna had a little more respect for herself, realized this, and filed for divorce.  She deserves better than this schmuck.  The only thing she will accomplish by staying will be teaching her daughters that they have less value than a man and don't deserve to be treated with respect or to respect themselves.

I don't know if he wanted to be married in the first place (Anna or someone else).  He married very young and frankly, because he was horny.  He was definitely not mature enough to get married. I think Josh needed to have the 'season of life' where he lived in a frat house, partied every weekend, and hooked up with a few girls.  Nothing wrong with being that frat boy.  Most of them grow up but need to get that out of them before they settle down.  Josh settled down at 20 and was a father at 21. 

But the problem is that in their circles, the only way they can be an adult is by getting married.  No option for living a bachelor lifestyle, trying new things, etc.  It explains why his 25 yo sister is sharing a bedroom with a 6 yo.

So why is it that they can print this as a non-blind item? I really don't get how tabloids work at all. I've only started paying attention to them since this whole Josh-business began, and I'm amazed by all the BS they can print without sources or repercussion 

[hauntedoklahoma]

If this is true then he can't really be in RA, right, since the only time the boys and the girls are allowed to be in the same room together is at service?

They probably feel sufficiently sourced on this that they won't get a cease-and-desist order that threatens legal action. There are two main reasons that blind items happen - to drive pageviews from people who speculate and come back hoping the BI is revealed, or because they don't feel like they have enough of a preponderance of evidence to back up anything that might get them sued.

I will say that a lot of Enty's stuff comes right before it ends up in a tabloid (or on Radar Online), so I would say to keep an eye on those for a bit for more details.

The gossip item says Anna went to visit Josh to "plead her case" and ask him for money.  What money?  Does Josh have a separate bank account that Anna is not a co-signer on?  Is Anna basically having to beg for money from JB to purchase necessary items, like groceries, gas, and clothing? 

I could certainly see Josh hooking up with someone else, given the opportunity.  Especially if it were a woman who had money of her own, enough to support the two of them.  Then he could tell his dad, "I found someone else who'll support me - buh bye!"  Sadly, he'd be leaving Anna and his 4 kids high and dry.  He's had a taste of freedom.  Going back under his dad's thumb has to be an extremely bitter pill.  I could see Josh taking any opportunity that would allow him to escape.

Since when my divorce happened, both of us were totally for it, I have no experience to the contrary --

Do both parties in their state (Arkansas, I guess? Or would it be Florida?) have to agree to a divorce for it to be granted? Or can one party ask for the divorce and that's final? I ask because if the BI is true and Josh wants to divorce Anna but Anna doesn't want the divorce, then how will that work?

Generally if one party wants a divorce it will happen.  It can be "contested" but that usually just means the terms are contested.  If you file a fault based divorce you have to prove fault, but no one does that anymore.  If you have a covenant marriage and are filing in a state which recognizes it you would have to prove fault.  In those two cases the party opposing it could stop the divorce.  Also I believe only the person who the fault was committed against can file.

To be fair, it does say "person" not "woman." Not gender-specific. 

I don't necessarily believe the non-blind item (although as @NewSeasonOfLife said, that site does sometimes have the gossip a little while before the other tabloids do). But I'll be interested to see if anything more comes out about Josh and Anna in the next few weeks. Still crossing my fingers she gets herself and those kids out of there somehow, as unlikely as it is.

I haven't been to this site except when it's linked here, where does this person get their information? Has this site been around a while? Like I said, I haven't really been to it unless we're all speculating on Josh stuff, so I don't know about this person's history of being right on things. But I'm really interested in how these types of journalists get their facts.

But they also have a covenant marriage, right? I know this has been discussed before but I think that makes things a little more complicated legally, doesn't it?

As far as I know, the state of Florida doesn't have covenant marriage.  So that doesn't apply to them, since they were married here.

Wouldn't it be something if the first Duggar to break free and give us the tell-all out hearts desire were Joshley?

Indeed. It would also greatly affect how we might view the details in such a tell-all - if it came from, say, Jinger, we would go 'Yeah! Woo! You tell 'em, Jinger! #emancipation #freejinger', but if Josh writes one, the reactions will probably be 'Yeah, as if, only writing a book to make money for his cheating ass, #schmuck' etc. Even if the details might be otherwise identical.

[RosyDaisy]

I always had a feeling that Jim Bob was a cheater and had outside kids.  I don't know why.  

I remember reading somewhere (here or another site) where somebody said there was a "generational thing" with the Duggar family. I didn't know what to make of it at the time, but JB being a hypocritical, cheating jackass wouldn't shock me either.

[RosyDaisy]

Oops! Double post.

I can definitely imagine this happening, for sure. And I can't really say I would really blame anyone, considering how Josh has proven himself to be incredibly self-serving and disingenuous in almost everything he says and does. The media would probably have a field day on the tell-all coming from Josh alone, regardless of what he shared. I don't know if a tell-all from Josh would actually do anything other than put a bunch of money in his pocket. If anything, leghumpers would probably use that to dismiss any truth bombs he dropped, and anyone who believed him would have to contend with people assuming they support Josh as a person. The tell-all could easily be overshadowed by who it was that wrote it, and that would really suck.

Having the tell-all come from him wouldn't necessarily make me skeptical about the validity of what he shared, but I would certainly question the motive and if he's doing this to shift 100% of the blame and responsibility for his own abusive behavior entirely onto his parents and background in order to avoid true remorse for his actions (and to get sympathy). A lot of abusers do that to avoid any real change in behavior, and right now I can't see Josh being any different. In a lot of ways, he is painfully predictable. 

I mean, this is all assuming he grows the fuck up and tries to be a decent person in spite of his shitty parents; but that's not happening, because I truly believe the whole reason he even touts the party line is because he's spent his entire life living to please his parents. Deep down, he probably has known most of this is bullshit, but his self-worth is wrapped up entirely in Mommy and Daddy's approval and the fear of eternal hellfire. I would feel bad for him if he didn't take all of it out on women and girls in even more vulnerable positions than him. But alas...
