Josh Duggar, of recently cancelled ’19 Kids and Counting,’ announces birth of 4th child

TONTITOWN, Ark. – Josh Duggar, the eldest son featured on TLC’s recently cancelled “19 Kids and Counting” reality show, has announced the birth of his and his wife’s fourth child.

Duggar tweeted Sunday that his wife, Anna, gave birth to another daughter, Meredith Grace. The announcement was confirmed by a spokeswoman for the Duggars’ show, which featured the 19 children of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar.

TLC cancelled the show last week, following revelations that Josh Duggar molested some of his sisters and a babysitter when he was a teenager in 2002 and 2003. No charges have been filed.

TLC has said it’s now producing a documentary to raise awareness of child sexual abuse, and some of the Duggars will take part.
