Josh and Anna Duggar have been through trials and tribulations throughout their eight-year marriage, but the couple remained committed to rebuilding their life together.

On Friday, the couple announced in a Duggar family blog post that they are expecting their fifth child — a baby boy due later this year.

Although the former reality stars, who rose to fame on TLC’s 19 Kids and Counting, admit that the past two years — which included scandal and infidelity — haven’t been easy for them to get through, they believe that “beauty comes from ashes” and say they are looking forward to what’s in store.
