The power of the keyboard. Amy King (née Duggar) wants Anna Duggar (née Keller) to know that there is no shame in divorcing husband Josh Duggar amid his child pornography trial — so she wrote her an open letter.
“Anna, I feel for you. No woman wants to be in your shoes,” Amy, 35, wrote via Instagram under a photo of herself hugging Anna, 33, on Tuesday, May 17. “You’re faced with an impossible decision and you’re being surrounded by the wrong kind of support. You’ve been taught since you were a child that marriage is forever and you prayed for God to send you a partner. You’ve constructed a life and a family with him. You didn’t choose any of this, and your kids certainly didn’t either.”
Amy noted in the message that “I’m not coming after you with some tough love sort of thing” and assured her cousin that “this is what’s simply on my heart and I can’t help but to express it.”
“I cried as I read the letter your own father wrote in support of your husband this week,” the 19 Kids and Counting star revealed. “It’s no wonder you’re struggling to know what to do to protect your own kids … you’ve obviously never had an example there. That’s awful and I’m so sorry for that.”
The Arkansas native continued: “Someday your kids will be old enough to understand what kind of guy their father really is. You can’t protect them from the truth for forever! I’m saying all of this publicly so that when they do grow up, they will also know that they had family members shouting from the rooftops that they were worth protecting all along.”
The TLC personality then appealed to the pair’s shared sense of motherhood, asking her cousin to “be the mother your children need,” noting that she and husband Dillon King are “more than willing to help.”
