Kendra Duggar’s email reveals where she stands with husband Joseph after his child molestation charges
Kendra Duggar showed her support for her husband, Joseph Duggar, in a series of emails after he was accused of child molestation.
The reality television star first reached out to his wife from the Washington County Detention Facility in Arkansas on March 23, per legal docs obtained by TMZ, writing, “Hopefully this finds you well. love you sweetie! <3 <3 <3 love you to the moon and back.”
Kendra replied, “I got your message! I love you!! Hang in there.”
Following an apparent jailhouse phone call, Joseph responded the next day, gushing, “great talking with you today! i always love getting to hear your voice! hope you have a wonderful grade filled day! and in psalm 54 thats the one i am praying over each of you and replacing the personal pronouns with your name!”
The “19 Kids and Counting” alum, who tied the knot with Kendra in 2017, added that the passage he mentioned has brought him “great comfort!”
“All of the psalms that have meant a lot to me are 8, 18, 54, 86, 91 119 and 139. listen to them if you get a chance. maybe in song form if needed;) love u so much! <3 <3 <3,” he concluded.
Kendra, who shares four kids with Joseph, then emailed back, “It is good to talk to you! Love you!!”
After sending the mom of four a heart, Kendra followed up with lyrics to Megan Woods’ song “The Truth,” which she noted is Joseph’s favorite track.
Lyrics from the tune include, “I don’t belong to the lies / I belong to you and” and “When I look in the mirror and I’m not so sure / Lord, I don’t wanna listen to the lies anymore.”
At the time, Joseph sat behind bars in his home state of Arkansas after being accused of molesting a 9-year-old during a 2020 Florida vacation.
In mid-March, a 14-year-old alleged that, when she was 9, the “Counting On” touched her genitals and rubbed her thighs while vacationing in Panama City Beach.
However, the alleged abuse stopped after he apologized out of the blue.
When allegedly confronted by the victim’s father, Joseph confessed to their encounters, and he was arrested.
He was ultimately transferred to Florida and charged with lewd and lascivious behavior involving a victim under the age of 12, as well as lewd and lascivious behavior conducted by a person over the age of 18 — which he pleaded not guilty to.
Shortly after, in a separate case, he was charged with four counts of endangering the welfare of a minor, along with four counts of false imprisonment.
Kendra, 27, was arrested on the same charges — but released later that same day.
Page Six obtained multiple prison calls from the couple, where she revealed their children had been taken away and that his family is disappointed in him. And on another call, the couple bragged about their “trim” figures, with Joseph talking about his in-prison fitness routine.
Since then, Joseph has been released on a $600,000 bond and has flown home to Arkansas. He is due back in court on May 18.
