Even though Josh Duggar broke her trust and violated their marriage vows, his wife Anna remains committed to salvaging their marriage.
Many have been trying to convince Anna to divorce Josh, including her brother Daniel Keller. And as much as Anna respects their opinions, she said that she has no plans of leaving him and will be staying true to her marriage vows.
"God has unfailing love for me, and he has loved me and forgiven me of so much, and I pray that through all of this that I would be an extension of God's love to Joshua," Anna said during the TLC documentary "Jill and Jessa: Counting On."
She admitted that when Josh's past transgression resurfaced, it felt "like ripping open an old wound." But when the news broke out that he cheated on her using the Ashley Madison website, it was a terribly painful ordeal that made her cry.
"I didn't know what to say," Anna shared. "It just felt like a bad dream. It didn't seem possible. It was hard to realize that it was such a public thing, so not only was it a betrayal against me, but it was also a betrayal against those who call themselves Christian."
Anna is hopeful that their family of six will find grace from God and come out of the ordeal stronger than ever before. Seeing her sister-in-law Jessa prepare for the arrival of her son Spurgeon Elliot with husband Ben Seewald actually made Anna miss Josh even more, since he is currently seeking treatment at the rehab facility Reformers Unanimous. But Anna feels genuinely happy because of the support given to her by her extended family.
"Through all the ups and downs, I am really glad to be back in Arkansas with the family," said Anna. "There's definitely a wide range of emotions, but overall, it's been wonderful to just be excited for Jessa and Ben, and I can't wait to be an aunt again."
