Will Anna Duggar file for a divorce following Josh Duggar's scandal?

"19 Kids and Counting" alum Josh Duggar is once again at the center of sexual molestation rumors.

According to InTouch Weekly, one girl recently came forward and claimed that she was also sexually molested by the former reality TV star.

"After last year's revelations about Josh's molestation scandal, word got around that there was another girl who said she had been abused by Josh when she was a teenager. The Duggars knew the girl. Michelle was terrified when she heard that this girl was talking about what Josh had done," the source said.

Meanwhile, the source also revealed that the woman's family was contacted by Duggar's parents Jim Bob and Michelle to discuss what their troubled son did.

At that time, the Duggar patriarch and matriarch were reportedly scared that the girl's parents would press charges and seek financial support from their family.

However, they insisted that they only want action to be done from the Duggar family's end and said that they wouldn't file for a lawsuit against Duggar.

Additionally, the source told the publication that the woman, who is now in her 20s, is still traumatized by what Duggar did to her. As a result, she rebelled against her parents at a young age and immediately left their home when she turned 18.

The source also claimed that the woman molested by Duggar may come out to the media soon because she is contemplating about writing a book about the incident.

She happened to be the sixth woman who Duggar allegedly molested.

Last year, TLC cancelled "19 Kids and Counting" amid Duggar's sexual molestation scandal. After he admitted his deed, he also confessed to cheating on his wife who was pregnant at that time.

Duggar was sent to rehab for a few months so he could repent from his sins and start a new life. At present, he is already out of the facility and is living a normal life with his wife Anna and their children.

The Duggar family has not yet commented regarding the issue. Their spinoff "Jill & Jessa: Counting On" is still airing on TLC.
