"19 Kids and Counting" star Anna Duggar has reportedly reached the end of the rope. It's been some time that the long-suffering wife has remained steadfast in supporting her husband. However; a family insider revealed that Anna Duggar's friend connected her to a lawyer.

She has been deferring meeting with them because she was afraid of people's reactions when she is seen at their office. The mother-of-four allegedly wants a divorce according to Daily Mail. The reason is because of fear that she and her husband will be forced to answer questions about his sexual molestation of four of his younger sisters.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are also nervous of the proceedings in court and the effects of the cases in their reputation. "It was their family's worst nightmare," says the insider.

Two years ago, Josh Duggar was found out to be molesting his younger sisters, five of them including four of his sisters. And that is not the only scandal that the eldest Duggar was involved. Last summer, he was also caught cheating on his wife by having an account with a cheating website called Ashley Madison. The worst is that he used the identity of another person for his profile.

He was placed in a rehab facility for almost seven months and had been out of the public's eyes since his release. The insider that is too close to the family said that the couple is sleeping on one bed but Anna Duggar opted never to have sex with her husband.

Now that the 28-year-old mother has made up her mind, she wants to be properly compensated and wants to start a new life in another place.

The lawsuit that is being heard at present is the one filed by Matthew McCarthy, the DJ whose photo was used by Josh Duggar for his profile in the cheating website. The victim has received ridicule because his photo was seen on the hookup site. He even lost his job because of the scandal.

The fear of the Duggar family is that they might be forced to speak about the scandal and the cover-up of his misdeeds by the family. Anna Duggar wants to spare her children from the effects of the scandal as reported by Hollywood Life. She also does not want to witness the time the dirtiest secrets of the family are exposed.

The family show "19 Kids and Counting" was canceled by TLC after the scandal surfaced. But a new show was replaced led by Jessa and Jill Duggar who were newly married at that time.

In 2015, Anna Duggar spoke about the scandals and she promised to stay with her husband for the sake of her children. But this time, the insider in the family revealed that she has changed her mind and now wants a divorce
