Reports from the Illinois rehab facility believed to be housing the disgraced Josh Duggar indicate that the reality star is missing in action.
Did he even fly to Reformers Unanimous in the first place? And if not, where is the troubled father of four since he went into seclusion?
Last week, Josh Duggar checked into rehab (or so we were told by a terse Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar) at an undisclosed location.
The Duggars’ private plane, piloted by John David Duggar, pulled into Rockford, Ill., one night, only to turn around 10 minutes later.
it was believed that this was a clandestine perv dropoff and that Josh entered Reformers Unanimous, a Christian treatment facility.
His parents have publicly supported the facility in the past, so the theory made sense … except he reportedly hasn’t been seen there.
Radar insiders claim Josh Duggar hasn’t shown up to the rehab center’s mandatory meetings and church services in the last week.
On Friday, a group of RU “students” pulled up to the facility’s affiliate, North Love Baptist Church, in a van for a local chapter meeting.
The program promotes recovery from addiction through Bible studies, and all are expected to attend; Josh was AWOL, however.
Similarly, he was absent on Sunday, when RU residents are required to attend church services at North Love twice in one day.
“Josh definitely wasn’t there,” a witness says.
To put it mildly, “It was very strange.”
“All students attend all services,” the RU website states, as "continued church attendance is a key catalyst to continuing victory.”
In another surprising twist, the family’s plane took another mystery trip August 27 across the Duggars’ home state of Arkansas.
The plane arrived in Paragould, a quiet, eastern town, around 9 a.m., and took off for home in Springdale, Ark., around 6 p.m.
The Christian family does not have property in the area, and no known friends or extended family members are from the town.
Nor are there are any known rehab centers in the vicinity.
It’s unclear if this is related to rumors that Josh was sent away to six months in a Christian labor camp … but we wouldn’t doubt it.
So where is Josh, and when will we see him again?
Obviously, we can’t answer that, but we wouldn’t bank on the family coming forward with daily updates or blog posts, that’s for sure.
Josh had been keeping a very low-profile since May, when uncovered police reports outed him as a molester of his own minor sisters.
He confessed to deviant behavior, resigned as executive director at the Family Research Council, and left Washington, D.C. in shame.
Then TLC nixed 19 Kids & Counting … and then it actually got worse for the Duggars after cheating website Ashley Madison was hacked.
Yes. While espousing “family values” and lobbying against gay rights, Josh was cheating on wife Anna Duggar and addicted to online porn.
It’s unclear how "successful" he was on Ashley Madison, but he reportedly trolled other dating sties and strip clubs for mistresses as well.
Only one, Danica Dillon, has come forward so far … though her tales of being paid, manhandled and berated by Josh are something else.
