JOSH Duggar’s brother-in-law David Keller is “dating his guardian’s daughter,” as he remains in their custody while awaiting his child porn trial.
Josh, 33, is currently on home confinement at dad Jim Bob’s friends LaCount and Maria Reber’s residence after he was arrested and charged with receiving and possessing child pornography in May 2021.
Josh’s wife Anna’s young brother David, 22, revealed on Instagram that he is dating Hannah Reber, the daughter of his brother-in-law’s guardians.
He captioned a sweet photo of Hannah, 22, holding a bouquet of flowers: “Hey everyone I’d like you to meet Hannah Reber! I have really enjoyed getting to know her. God gives good Gifts. James 1:17.”
Reddit users, who were the first to notice the post, expressed their shock over the relationship because of the circumstances.
One user wrote: “If I’m getting this straight, [Josh's] brother-in-law is courting the daughter of [Josh's] guardians???? Is this not a conflict of interest??
A second said: “It’s just such a twisted circle.”
A third commented: “If they get married then [Josh] is her brother-in-law. Vom."
A fourth replied: “The Rebers also welcomed sex pest to their home. They don’t have the moral ground to stand on.”
David did not immediately respond to The Sun’s request for comment.
Hannah works as a piano teacher, as she posts many of her performances and lessons on her Instagram page.
David works for landscaping company KB Lawns.
Josh is currently residing in a massive mansion in Elkins, Arkansas with the Reber family.
According to Arkansas property records obtained by The Sun, LaCount, 49, and Maria, 53, bought nine acres of land in 2005 for $68,000.
In 2007, the couple built a one-story house on one-acre of the property.
The abode features four bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The home is an upgrade from his previous living conditions, as he resided on the Duggar family compound in a renovated warehouse with his pregnant wife and six children.
The warehouse was featured on Counting On as a wedding dress pop-up shop for his brother John David’s wife Abbie.
The photos from the episode match all of the photos of Anna’s Instagram inside the home.
LaCount is an MRI tech with the US Department of Veterans Affairs.
He previously volunteered as a chaplain at the Washington County Jail, where Josh remained for a week.
Maria is a homemaker, and shares a son and daughter with her husband.
At Josh’s detention hearing, parole officer Diem Nguyen said Maria had reservations about Josh living with her family.
Diem explained: "Her concern was she was a woman and Josh was a man and that she felt… she didn’t know how she felt about being alone with him for a long period of time.”
The officer then explained how minors come in and out of the home for piano lessons, but that they are always supervised by an adult.
She agreed, however, to not have the lessons there as well.
On Hannah’s piano Instagram page, she told a follower: “Currently, I’m doing lessons via Zoom or FaceTime.”
According to conditions of release obtained by The Sun, he is restricted to the residence of LaCount and Maria at all times except for employment, education, religious services, medical or mental health treatment, attorney visits, court-ordered obligations, court hearings or other activities approved by a parole officer.
Travel is restricted to Western District of Arkansas, Fayetteville Division unless given approval from the U.S. Probation Office. That includes Benton, Washington and Madison counties.
The Arkansas judge ordered Josh to wear a GPS ankle monitor.
Josh has unlimited access to his six children with his pregnant wife Anna, 32, as long as she is present.
The Sun previously reported Anna and their children have been seen visiting the Reber home.
Josh was arrested for the federal charges in Washington County in April.
The arrest is related to the 2019 Homeland Security raid on Josh's now-closed used car dealership in Springdale, Arkansas.
According to the indictment, Josh “knowingly received child pornography” between or about May 14, 2019 and on or about May 16, 2019.
For the second count, Josh “knowingly possessed material that contained images of child pornography,” including “images of minors under the age of 12.”
If convicted, he could receive 20 years in prison with fines up to $250,000 for each count.
Josh pleaded not guilty to the charges at his arraignment.
Josh’s trial was scheduled for July 2021, but he requested the hearing be postponed to February 2022 so a computer forensic expert “can examine his devices,” The Sun exclusively reported.
The Sun also broke that the United States agreed to a three-month delay, but anything additional is “unnecessary.”
