Josh Duggar, from TLC's "19 Kids and Counting,' has admitted to having accounts with AshleyMadison.com, a website that helps married people cheat on their spouses.

"I have been the biggest hypocrite ever. While espousing faith and family values, I have been unfaithful to my wife," Duggar wrote on the family's official website.

Duggar was a lobbyist for the Family Research Council at the time the account was active. He was forced to resign this year after admitting to molesting young girls as a teenager.

"The last few years, while publicly stating I was fighting against immorality in our country I was hiding my own personal failures," he said.

A previous statement where the 27-year-old reality star admitted to viewing pornography was removed from the site. Duggar and his wife Anna have four children.

Earlier this year, reports from 12 years ago surfaced that he molested minor girls, including his sisters, when he was a teenager. Duggar apologized for his past actions.

"Twelve years ago, as a young teenager, I acted inexcusably for which I am extremely sorry and deeply regret. I hurt others, including my family and close friends," Duggar wrote on Facebook  in May.

Duggar is just one of exposed clients on the Ashley infidelity webisite. Hackers released 9.7 gigabytes of data Wednesday, which appears to include profiles with email addresses from government, the military, and large companies in the United States, Europe, and other parts of the globe.

Duggar reportedly paid nearly $1,000 for two separate accounts on the site.
