Authorities have arrested another member of the Duggar reality TV family after taking Joseph (Joe) Duggar into custody earlier in the week.
Kendra Duggar (née Caldwell), Joe’s wife, is now also in custody, according to a police statement. Both are each charged with four counts of four counts of endangering the welfare of a minor (second degree) and four counts of false imprisonment (second degree).

As previously reported, Joe is accused of lewd and lascivious molestation of a victim less than 12 years old, and lewd and lascivious behavior conducted by a person 18 years or older. In the original Bay County Sheriff’s Office statement on the matter, Joe has allegedly admitted to molesting the child.
“The victim stated Duggar eventually apologized for his actions and the incidents stopped after the apology,” police say. “Investigators discovered the victim’s father confronted Duggar about these incidents on March 17th, 2026. Duggar admitted his actions to the victim’s father and to Tontitown Detectives.”
