Joseph Duggar and his wife, Kendra, have retreated from social media since allegations emerged in 2020 that Joseph sexually assaulted a 9-year-old girl. The couple has not shared any updates on Instagram since November 2021.
However, fans refer to the comments section of their previous posts shared via the Duggar family’s Instagram account, @littleduggarfamily, calling for Kendra to “divorce” the father of three – Garrett David, Addison Renee and Brooklyn Praise – after he was booked into the Washington County Jail in Arkansas on March 18 at 3:59 PM local time.
‘I really hope you’re smarter than Anna. Get a restraining order on this monster to keep your innocent children away from him forever. Divorce him,” someone recently commented under the latest post shared on November 17, 2021, while a social media user recalled alarming “patterns.”
The 31-year-old former 19 children and counting star was charged with two counts of child sexual abuse in connection with a 2020 incident in Panama City Beach, Florida. The case comes years after Joseph’s brother, Josh Duggar, faced separate legal troubles over similar crimes.
Joseph’s case has now come to light following a forensic interview with the now 14-year-old victim. The Bay County Sheriff’s Office says the alleged abuse included inappropriate touching while the girl sat on Joseph’s lap and couch, covered with a blanket.
Investigators said the victim’s father also later confronted Joseph with the allegations, and he “allegedly admitted his actions to the father and Tontitown detectives.”
Concerned social media users have now taken to the comments sections of the Duggar family’s posts with their reactions to the allegations.
