Kendra Duggar was apprehended on Friday as her husband, Joseph Duggar, faces serious allegations linked to inappropriate conduct with a minor.

The 27-year-old was detained in Arkansas on charges of allegedly endangering a minor’s welfare and false imprisonment, according to TMZ.

This arrest follows just two days after Joseph, 31, was taken into custody over accusations of inappropriate contact with a nine-year-old girl.

A warrant for Kendra’s arrest was issued on Friday, but initial attempts by law enforcement to locate her at the Duggar family home in Washington County were unsuccessful.

However, records from the Washington County Detention Center confirm that she has since been apprehended.

The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for both Kendra and Joseph Duggar for comments, but has yet to receive a response.

Kendra and Duggar married in 2020 and the pair are parents to four children. 

Earlier this week on Wednesday, Duggar was arrested in connection with lewd and lascivious behavior involving unlawful sexual activity with a minor, a statement from the Bay County Sheriff’s Office in Lynn Haven, Florida announced.

An investigator with the Tontitown Police Department in Tontitown, Arkansas reached out to the BCSO ‘regarding a report of past sexual abuse.’

An alleged victim, identified as a 14-year-old girl, told law enforcement about a series of inappropriate incidents Duggar was involved in around five years back, police said.

Authorities said the alleged incidents occurred in 2020, when the alleged victim was nine-years-old and on vacation with her family in Panama City Beach, Florida.

The 19 Kids And County star is now facing additional charges including four counts of second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor and four counts of second-degree false imprisonment, the Tontitown Police Department told TMZ. 

Duggar and Kendra’s new charges in Arkansas are reportedly not related to his case in the state of Florida. 

He is being held in Arkansas as he awaits extradition back to Florida.

Family members have since broken silence on his arrest, such as brother Josh – who is currently serving a 12-year prison sentence for possessing child pornography. 

His attorney told the Daily Mail, ‘Josh understands the stigma of being accused.

‘He lives with the painful reality of how false accusations can destroy a life. He understands how the targeting of a person for publicity can twist the truth into sensationalized fiction.’ 

The attorney said that the brothers ‘are not in frequent communication’ but Josh ‘hopes and prays for his brother’s well being in this difficult time.’ 

His sister Jill has also spoken out by uploading a post on her family blog which she shares with husband Derick Dillard. 

‘We were shocked yesterday evening to learn of Jill’s brother’s [Joseph Duggar’s] arrest,’ the message read. 

‘We first learned of anything related to his charges yesterday via a text from a friend who messaged us about the recent media reports of Joseph’s arrest and his alleged confession to molesting a juvenile female in 2020. We are shocked and heartbroken.’ 

They added, ‘We strongly condemn abuse. We support the rule of law and hope that justice will be achieved. Our hearts go out to the innocent juvenile victim of this unspeakable crime and her family.

Jill and Derick also sent love to Kendra and her four children in the post shared on Thursday, just one day before her arrest

‘We pray God gives her strength, comfort and hope, and that she is able to get all the help and support she needs and deserves in the days ahead.’ 

Jill and Derick also sent love to Kendra and her four children while praying ‘that they feel loved and supported during this time as we cannot imagine the indescribable pain they feel as they process and grieve everything.’

The post was uploaded on Thursday, just one day before Kendra’s arrest for allegedly endangering the welfare of a minor and false imprisonment. 

Duggar’s mugshot was released on Wednesday evening by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office in Fayetteville, Arkansas. 

The former reality star sported a thick beard, and he gazed forward with a stony expression, which notably contrasted the grinning 2021 mugshot of his brother Josh, which had also been snapped in Washington County. 

The alleged victim told investigators that the family had been staying at a home located on Danny Drive at the time of the illegal incidents. 

Joseph Duggar ‘repeatedly asked her to sit on his lap,’ BCSO officials said, adding that his behavior appeared to escalate as the vacation continued.

In another incident, Joseph ‘asked [the victim] to sit next to him on a couch and covered them with a blanket, ‘rubbing’ his hands on her thighs.

‘During this time, Duggar manipulated the victim’s underwear and grazed her genitals.’

Duggar subsequently told the alleged victim he was sorry, and the incidents ceased, according to officials with the BCSO.

The father of the alleged victim confronted Joseph Duggar about what happened on Tuesday, at which time he admitted to his actions to the father and a detective in Tontitown, the BCSO said. 

Joseph Duggar was subsequently arrested and charged in connection with Lewd and Lascivious Behavior – Molestation of a Victim Less Than 12-years-old; and Lewd and Lascivious Behavior Conducted By A Person 18 Years or Older.
