Josh Duggar, the embattled son of Jim Bob and Michelle from "19 Kids and Counting," is back in Arkansas after his stint in the faith-based rehab facility Reformers Unanimous.
Josh became the subject of public ire last year after he was exposed for cheating on his wife Anna and, before that, molesting underage girls, including his sisters Jill and Jessa, when he was still a teenager. Because of this, many would rather not want him back on television, particularly in his family's new TLC show "Jill and Jessa: Counting On."
So when InTouch reported that Josh would be back on television for the second season of "Counting On," many fans objected.
"Josh will appear on the next season of his sisters' series," the source claimed. "The plan is for him to address everything he's done. What he has to say will be ratings gold, and TLC — and the Duggars — know it."
"Josh will cover everything and he will maintain the family line that God has saved his soul and guided him back to the right path," the source alleged. "But one thing you probably won't hear is that he's actually sorry, as he believes that external forces were to blame for his behaviour."
But before upset fans could file a petition to boycott the show because of Josh's reappearance, another source told PEOPLE that reports of Josh's comeback on TV are "absolutely untrue."
For now, it seems like Josh would continue focusing on rebuilding his marriage with Anna. The couple earlier released a statement on their family blog, saying that they are "working with a professional marriage and family counselor to take important steps toward healing."
"It isn't easy and some days are very difficult. It is a long road to rebuild trust and a truly healthy relationship," they wrote in May. "As the future unfolds, we are taking one day at a time and we are grateful for your continued prayers for both of us and our sweet children."
