After the tumultuous scandals that hit him and his family, rumors claim that Josh Duggar was only faking all the negative reports about him so he can step out of his family's shadows.

Multiple reports claim that Josh is planning to have his own reality show, and they fabricated all the scandals that emerged about him to get the public's attention. According to reports, a source confessed about Josh's alleged plans to break free from his family's popular "19 Kids and Counting" series to star on his own show that will highlight how he and his wife Anna managed to surpass all the trials in their marriage.

Josh's life drastically changed when a police report about a child molestation case filed against him by five young females back when he was 14 and 15 years old was leaked by InTouch Weekly in May 2015. It was aggravated when it was revealed that four of the five complainants were his younger sisters.

Then in August of the same year, Josh was once again involved in another scandal. This time, the public discovered that he had multiple Ashley Madison accounts after a breach of privacy leaked information submitted to the infidelity-supporting website. He was forced to admit that he cheated on his wife while she was pregnant with their fourth child, and had sex addiction. Josh then decided to seek treatment for his problems and turned himself in at the Reformers Unanimous facilities.

But while Josh and the Duggars are still mum about the reports, another woman reportedly stepped forward to reveal that she was also molested by the eldest Duggar son several years ago.

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

The Duggars have yet to clarify the issues.
