The public not only learned that Josh had molested several underage girls — including his own sisters — when he was a young teenager, but it was also revealed that he was a paying Ashley Madison customer. So yeah, 2015 was definitely not a good year for the fundamentalist Christian family.Article continues below advertisement Since then, Josh was kicked off his family's reality series, the show was renamed to Counting On, and then Counting On was canceled. In December 2021, Josh was found guilty on two counts, receiving and possessing child pornography, and is awaiting sentencing in May 2022. Through the years of scandals, Counting On fans have likely wondered: How many kids does Josh Duggar have now?Source: InstagramArticle continues below advertisement So how many kids does Josh Duggar have In what has become known as the typical Duggar fashion, Josh and Anna didn't waste any time starting their family after saying, "I do" back in September 2008. They welcomed their first child, a daughter they named Mackynzie Renée Duggar, on Oct. 8, 2009 — and they even allowed cameras to film Anna's all-natural home birth. On June 15, 2011, Josh and Anna welcomed baby No. 2: A baby boy they named Michael James Duggar. His younger brother, Marcus Anthony Duggar, was born just under two years later on June 2, 2013.Article continues below advertisement View this post on Instagram How did these three grow up so fast?! ?‍? • • • #littleduggars #michael #mackynzie #marcus A post shared by Anna Duggar (@annaduggar) on Apr 20, 2020 at 6:46pm PDT Source: Instagram But wait, there's more!

Except, instead of all "J" names, like Michelle and Jim Bob did, it seems Duggar and Anna have taken a liking to "M" names for their kids. It's unclear whether they plan on having more kids in the future, especially if Duggar ends up spending years in prison. As Josh awaits sentencing, Anna and the kids are reportedly living in a warehouse on Jim Bob and Michelle’s Arkansas property, according to The U.S. Sun.AdvertisementMore from Distractify The Duggar Family Scandals Nearly Canceled Their Popular TLC Series Are Jana Duggar and Laura DeMasie More Than Friends?
