posted in CelebritiesAnna Duggar is speaking in front of cameras for the first time since the bombshell news broke her husband, Josh Duggar, molested several underage girls when he was younger and also cheated on her during their marriage.
In the preview below for Jill & Jessa: Counting On, which is TLC's spinoff of the canceled 19 Kids and Counting series, Anna and two of her sisters-in-law speak briefly about the devastating period the Duggar family has been through. Take a look:
"Somebody who you love...how could this happen?" new mom Jessa asks, while her sister Jill shares, "I cried a lot of tears. My first thoughts were for Anna."
Referring to the three-part special which begins airing Dec. 13, TLC's website states "for the first time, we'll hear from several family members, including Anna Duggar in emotional and candid interviews about the trying summer the family faced and how they are continuing to move forward from a time of turmoil to a time of celebration."
"We're getting through," Jessa says in the promo.
"We're coming out of this fire," Jill adds.
Just like Jill, my first thoughts when it all happened were for Anna. I can't imagine what she's been through, and though I feel a bit like it's rubber necking I can't help but wonder how she and the rest of the family have handled such jaw-dropping news.
I'm tempted to watch, but then again, I wonder if trying to talk about it in front of the cameras will only really make things worse for Anna.
