This isn't the first time Amy has spoken out what it's like being associated with the 19 Kids and Counting stars. As OK! previously reported, the 36-year-old revealed that growing up, she always felt like the "wild girl" who didn't understand her strict aunt and uncle's rules.

"I was extremely known as the black sheep. They would never say black sheep, but I was like the wild cousin," she explained in an interview published last June. "I couldn't spend the night, they couldn't be in my car. There were several things that I was like, ‘What did I do? Why am I so wrong?'"

The mother-of-one — who shares 3-year-old son Daxton with husband Dillon — also caught backlash from her family after repeatedly speaking out against her disgraced cousin Josh after his April 2021 arrest and subsequent child pornography conviction.

From claiming the 34-year-old had a "sinister side" to calling for the judge to hand out a harsh sentence, her public protest of the father-of-seven has caused her to become seemingly permanently estranged from Josh's wife, Anna, and their children.

"I have tried and tried. I have tried to reach out," Amy revealed in an emotional TikTok posted earlier last year detailing her dwindling relationship with Anna.

"I wanted to be someone who could just be a sounding board for her, where she could like just vent and talk and melt down if she needed to," she added. "I don't know. I could be blocked. That could be it too. I don't know how to reach out to her."
