Josh Duggar is facing a lawsuit from adult film star Danica Dillon, who claims that the former 19 Kids and Counting star assaulted her.

Dillon alleges that Duggar had visited her back in March at The Gold Club in Philadelphia, where she was a featured performer. After paying her roughly $600 for lap dances, he invited her to his hotel room, where they had consensual sex for which Duggar paid an additional $1500. Dillon claims that during the sexual encounter Duggar “manhandled” her to the point that she “felt as if she were being raped,” according to court documents obtained by People, and “assaulted her to the point of causing her physical and emotional injuries.”

Dillon, who filed her lawsuit Tuesday, is seeking $500,000 in damages for emotional and physical suffering that has resulted in severe anxiety for which she’s seeing a psychiatrist.

It was revealed back in August that Duggar, who’d already been embroiled in a child molestation scandal, had two paid Ashley Madison accounts. When news broke of his involvement with the infamous cheating website, Duggar released a statement to confirm the reports.

“I have been the biggest hypocrite ever,” Duggar said in his original statement. “While espousing faith and family values, I have secretly over the last several years been viewing pornography on the internet and this became a secret addiction and I became unfaithful to my wife.”

Duggar has since checked himself into the faith-based rehab center Reformers Unanimous in Rockford, Ill.

Anna Duggar has remained mostly in the shadows since the latest revelation about her husband’s sexual deviance. However, in a new promo for the TLC special Jill and Jess: Counting On, she breaks her silence, calling the ordeal, “heartbreaking.”
