A new report claims that embattled reality television star Josh Duggar has reportedly failed to attend mandatory counseling meetings during his stay at a Christian rehab center.

Although the Duggar family announced last week that Josh would be attending a Christian rehabilitation center after it was revealed he held two accounts on the Ashley Madison extramarital affairs website, fellow attendees of the alleged rehabilitation program claim Josh is nowhere to be seen at mandatory meetings and church services.

Radar Online suggests that Josh reportedly entered the Reformers Unanimous Christian treatment center in Illinois this week, but other attendees of the rehabilitation center claim Duggar has not been present at the mandatory meetings and church services.

"Josh definitely wasn't there," an onlooker at the rehab center claimed. "It was very strange."

Josh's parents released a statement last week claiming Josh was seeking treatment. The 27-year-old reality star had said in a previous statement that he was a "hypocrite" and had been battling a pornography addiction.

"Yesterday Josh checked himself into a long-term treatment center. For him it will be a long journey toward wholeness and recovery," the statement read.

"We pray that in this he comes to complete repentance and sincere change. In the meantime, we will be offering our love, care and devoted support to Anna and our grandchildren as she also receives counsel and help for her own heart and future. During this time we continue to look to God—He is our rock and comfort. We ask for your continued prayers for our entire family," the statement added.
