One step at a time: Anna Duggar (pictured February) has revealed in a new clip of Jill & Jessa: Counting On that she is dealing with her disgraced husband's cheating scandal like she has dealt with labor 

Josh has been in a faith-based rehab facility since it was revealed he had been using cheating website, Ashley Madison.

The scandal is the second to rock the TLC show family, with it previously revealed that Josh sexually molested young girls, including his own sisters.

In the clip of Sunday's upcoming episode, Anna tells her sister-in-law Jessa Seewald she is doing her best to move forward.

A tired and sad looking Anna says: 'I think, for everyone, it has been hard but I think it's been a good opportunity to draw close to God and just trusting God for his wisdom to take the next step.'

Anna tells her pregnant sister-in-law that she is getting through the pain like you get through labor.

'I feel like I have been in labor for days.

'When you're in labor, you just make it through the next contraction and go on. I think there's been a lot of that lately, of just taking the next step and going on.'

However, clearly the situation is weighing on the 27-year-old, as she tears up while remembering her happy memories she shared with the family in the home they are in.

'We'll see what God has in store for the future.'

That may include Christmas with her husband as his family's plane was spotted at the Rockford Airport in Illinois near the faith-based rehab facility he entered this past August.

The plane was photographed sitting on the runway on Christmas Eve night and in the early hours of Christmas, but it was not clear if it had been bringing visitors to see Josh or if he was preparing to leave the facility in order to make it home in time to spend the holiday with his wife Anna and their four children.  

Josh has not been seen in public since this past July, and even then it was only when he shared Instagram photos of himself bowling with his son Michael and posing for a photo of with Anna and their new daughter Meredith Grace.

The reunion will likely be both a happy and bittersweet one for Josh and Anna, especially as she has finally begun to speak publicly about the hurt and pain she felt while learning about her husband's double life. 

'I think it is such a betrayal for a spouse to go through what we’re walking through,' says Anna while fights back tears during an appearance on the family's new TLC reality show, Jill & Jessa: Counting On.

She then added; 'It was hard to realize that it was such a public thing, and so, not only was it a betrayal against me, but it was also a betrayal for those who call themselves Christian.

'Everyone was able to see us get married and to vow before God to be loyal to each other, and that loyalty was broken. And so, for my heart, it was just broken.'

It was revealed in August that Josh had an account on the cheating website Ashley Madison, and soon after porn star Danica Dillon came forward claiming the pair had sex on two occasions. 

Josh confessed to his affairs in a letter this past August, writing: 'I am so ashamed of the double life that I have been living and am grieved for the hurt, pain and disgrace my sin has caused my wife and family, and most of all Jesus and all those who profess faith in Him.'

He entered the faith-based rehab program in Illinois soon after and remained there while Anna cares for their children.

Just a few months prior to his admittance into the rehab program in May it was revealed that he had molested five minors when he was a teenager, including four of his sisters.

TLC cancelled the family's reality show soon after, and this special marks the return of some of the children in the family to TV.
