It has been a series of scandal, secrets and surprises - so it was only fitting that Breaking Amish dropped a few bombshells in the finale.

After weeks of doubts over the authenticity of the TLC 'reality' show, one character confirmed she is a divorced mother, while another pair revealed the details of a drunken sex session during filming.

One cast member, Sabrina, called the tryst 'stupid' and said she did not even consider to be sex.

They are just the latest revelations on the show, which has repeatedly come under fire for deceiving viewers about the five Amish and Mennonite men and women it follows as they move to New York.

While each cast member claims to have grown up in the strict communities, evidence has surfaced suggesting they have decidedly dark pasts - involving divorce, children and time away from the faith.

'Honesty': Cast member Rebecca confirmed she has a baby, but would not say if Abe, left, if the father

Secret: This photo of the couple, who the TLC show had claimed met for 'the first time' when they moved to New York for Breaking Amish, with a baby was posted on the internet weeks ago

Weeks after a photo was posted on Breaking Amish the Truth showing cast members Rebecca and Abe with a baby, Rebecca, who has already revealed she is divorced, has confirmed she is a mother.

'I do have a daughter,' she said. 'She's 19 months old. I wasn't with my ex when I found out I was pregnant. But I did call him and tell him, and he absolutely denied that it was his. I was glad he denied it.'

But she refused to name the father, despite speculations that the child is Abe's. The show claimed they met for the first time in New York and, in a later episode, they married in an English ceremony.

Of being the baby girl's father, he simple said: 'That's a sensitive subject we don't talk about.'

Trust: Abe and Sabrina revealed they had sex during the show's filming and it was 'stupid'

It has already been revealed that Rebecca left her first husband, Rufus Hostetler, to start a relationship with Abe in 2010.

In another revelation, two other cast members, Jeremiah and Sabrina, admitted they had sex during the filming - throwing yet more doubts on their devotion to their faiths.

While a cast member claimed the couple had sex in a hotel lobby's bathroom, Sabrina denied it.

Jeremiah added: 'If the world wants to know, we did it and enjoyed it.'

'And I made him stop,' Sabrina said. 'I was drunk both times. We were both trashed and started messing around. He sticks it in, and I was like, No! I made him take it out. I don't consider that actually doing it.'

It is perhaps unsurprising that the pair apparently broke with the strict tenets of their faiths - as they have both been married. And Jeremiah was accused of domestic abuse before he divorced the mother of his three children.

None of the characters are free from former scandal.

In perhaps the most shocking revelation about the real lives of the characters, Jeremiah is divorced from a woman who claims he repeatedly beat her.

'Reality' TV? TLC's show Breaking Amish has come under fire for its false claims about its characters' pasts

Public records reveal that 32-year-old Jeremiah Raber, who regularly swears on the show, has three children - two daughters, aged seven and three, and a son, five.

The children live with their mother, Naomi Stutzman, in Ohio. The couple married in 2005 and she filed for divorce in 2011, citing gross neglect of duty, extreme cruelty and incompatibility.

Speaking to CBS21, Stutzman, who has also left the Amish community, called the show 'a fake' and lambasted TLC for perpetuating lies on a family channel about a man accused of repeatedly attacking his wife.

'The kids and I suffered for years at the hands of this man,' she said.

'My family is livid because they took him in and cared for him, now he is doing this? I'm not surprised at him. What surprised me was TLC. My kids and I watch TLC. They are supposed to be a family channel. For them to do this is appalling.'

Revealed: Jeremiah's wife, Naomi Stutzman, spoke to CBS21 about how Jeremiah repeatedly attacked her

Police reports showed she called authorities on at least eight occasions and Jeremiah was arrested for domestic violence in 2005. She said that his violence eventually led to their break up.

On one occasion, he punched her in the stomach while she was pregnant, a police report notes. She said that TLC offered her $10,00 to stay quiet on the incidents, which TLC denies.

She added that, while Jeremiah is shown getting a large arm tattoo in Breaking Amish, he has in fact had it for years - and it bears the names of his three children.

Jeremiah was also reportedly away from his Amish community for up to 14 years and is pictured on social networking sites surrounded by beer cans.

TLC has also previously admitted that Kate, who is billed as an Amish bishop's daughter and aspiring model, has been arrested for a DUI.

But blogs revealed she also previously submitted images to modeling agencies - which is at odds with the Amish stance against photographs, believing they represent 'vanity' which they deem a sin.

Online records show that Kate posted a photograph on exploretalent.com to enter a Best Smile contest in 2010 - years before she claimed she gave up her Amish life to move to the city.

And on the show, she is seen enjoying a successful modelling career, posing in skimpy outfits.

Sabrina is pictured on Facebook kissing a man while she wears skimpy clothing.

She was reportedly married in 2009 and has not been a practicing Mennonite for years, friends claim, suggesting this is not the 'first time' she has left the community.

She is pictured on her wedding day in a ceremony that is not traditionally Mennonite.

The apparent betrayal by the creators of Breaking Amish is documented on a Facebook page, Breaking Amish the Truth, on which people who claim to know the cast have vented their anger.

Scores of people have also uploaded photographs showing the cast in their 'real' lives.

In response to the outrage, TLC has said it will address the revelations in time, which it has done - and will presumably address in the second part of the finale this Sunday.

'There is a lot of information floating around about the group featured on Breaking Amish. Much of it is not true, but some of it is - and is addressed in upcoming episodes,' TLC told Variety.
