Josh Duggar Skipping Family Christmas & Newborn Daughter's First Holiday Thanks To Sex Addiction That Sent Him To Rehab

The former 19 Kids & Counting family shared a photo of Josh and Anna Duggar’s newborn daughter, Meredith Grace, looking adorable wearing holiday garland for her first Christmas, but her daddy was not there to see the cute moment.
A video of the family caroling in late November showed Meredith Grace handed off to her aunt, Jana Duggar, as the family began their holiday celebrations without Anna, 27, in sight.

The disgraced reality star, who admitted to child sexual abuse and cheating on his wife using Ashley Madison, was separated from his wife and four children—Mackynzie, 6, Michael, 4, and Marcus, 2, and Meredith, 5 months—in August after he checked into rehab at Reformers Unanimous in Rockford, Illinois for addiction.
So far, neither Josh nor Anna have spoken about the scandal since he checked into rehab, but Anna did appear in a preview clip for the new family reality show on TLC, Jill & Jessa: Counting On.
