Celebrity's Relative

The Resume

    (March 3, 1988- )
    Born in Tontitown, Arkansas
    Eldest son of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar
    Featured in the show '19 Kids and Counting'
    Wedding to Anna Keller broadcast as 'A Very Duggar Wedding' (2008)
    Used car salesman (2008-13)
    Executive director for the lobbying arm of the Family Research Council (2013-15)

Why he might be annoying:

    Just like his parents gave all their kids names starting with the letter 'J,' he and his wife are apparently enamored of the letter 'M': Mackynzie, Michael and Marcus.
    At a NOM 'March for Marriage,' he said only one country had legalized same-sex marriage. (He was short by 17.)
    He repeatedly claimed that not letting Christians discriminate against gays violates their First Amendment rights.
    He was spokesman for a group that endlessly equates gays with child molesters.
    When he was a teen, he sexually molested five underage girls, some of whom were his siblings.
    Jim Bob Duggar told police that Josh received counseling, but in reality he was temporarily sent away from home to work in a family friend's home remodeling business.
    Upon his return, he got a 'stern talk' from an Arkansas State Trooper who was another family friend (and who later was convicted on child pornography charges).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He said, 'I would do anything to go back to those teen years and take different actions.'
    He confessed the molestation to his future wife two years before they married. (She said, 'I was surprised at his openness and humility.')
    The Family Research Council dropped him like a hot potato when the molestation story became public.
    He killed off any chance that he would star in '19 Kids and Counting: The Next Generation.'
