Amy Duggar King Reveals Disturbing Family Secrets After Grandfather's Death

In a recent interview, Amy Duggar King, a former reality TV star, has revealed a disturbing family secret that was kept from her for many years. According to Amy, she was not allowed to be alone with her grandfather, Jimmy Lee Duggar, while growing up in Arkansas. Despite her repeated questioning, her mother and grandmother refused to explain the reason behind this restriction.

After her grandfather's death, Amy's mother finally sat her down and shared the truth – that her late relative was a "predator," as Amy describes it in her new memoir, Holy Disruptor. Amy says she was shocked to learn this, as she had always assumed there was some other reason for the strict rules around her grandfather. Looking back, she now realizes she could have been a victim too, had her family not taken such protective measures.

Amy's book also includes revelations about her cousin, Josh Duggar, who is currently serving a nearly 13-year sentence for receiving and possessing child pornography. Amy confronted Josh about his wrongdoings against his sisters, and she says his response left her feeling like she didn't know him at all.

Sharing these deeply personal experiences has been an immensely difficult process for Amy, but she is determined to be brave and tell the truth. Her memoir, set to be released on October 14th, promises to shed more light on the dark secrets that have long been hidden within the Duggar family.
