A notable member of the Duggar family is missing from wedding photos.

18 of the Duggar children, along with their spouses and kids can be seen in a family photograph taken at Jana Duggar's wedding on Thursday, August 15.

Jana, 34, married Stephen Wissmann, 31, in her home state of Arkansas at The Grand at Willow Springs, with 500 guests in attendance.

Anna -- who married Josh Duggar back in September 2008 -- and her seven kids were noticeably absent from the snapshot causing fans to speculate on whether Anna is being ostracized by the family.

The U.S. Sun reported that fans believed Anna was in attendance at the wedding due to an Instagram story posted by the groom's sister, Alaythia Wissmann, where people thought they saw Anna sitting at a table at the reception.

The 36-year-old's husband Josh is currently serving a 12-year and seven months prison sentence for child pornography, to which he pleaded not guilty to back in December 2021. Only one week before Josh was arrested, the pair announced they were expecting their seventh child, Madison.

Josh also has allegations against him that he molested his sisters Jill, Jessa, Joy-anna, and Jinger. Despite the crimes and allegations, Anna has stayed married to the 36-year-old.

The 19 Kids and Counting alum is serving his sentence in Seagoville, Texas with his earliest release date being October 2, 2032. After his release, Josh will have 20 years of supervised release and will not be able to have any unsupervised contact with minors, including his underage kids.

Scandal arose for Josh back in 2015 after a multitude of girls claimed to be molested by him. Josh took to Facebook in May 2015 writing, "Twelve years ago, as a young teenager, I acted inexcusably for which I am extremely sorry and deeply regret."

"I hurt others, including my family and close friends," Josh added.

Josh has made many appeal attempts for the child pornography charges and has had no success.

First in January 2022, Josh's lawyer filed for an acquittal which was rejected. Then in June 2022, Josh's appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit was shot down. In June 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court also rejected Josh's attorney, Justin Gelfand's appeal.
