NEW YORK (Reuters) - Reality TV star Josh Duggar, who has admitted cheating on his wife following reports he was a subscriber to the hacked Ashley Madison affair website, has entered rehab, his family said on Wednesday.

"Yesterday Josh checked himself into a long-term treatment center. For him it will be a long journey toward wholeness and recovery. We pray that in this he comes to complete repentance and sincere change," his parents said in a statement on the Duggar Family website.

Duggar, 27, was one of the stars of TLC reality show "19 Kids and Counting" about the lives of the deeply Conservative Duggar family. Last week admitted he had cheated on his wife of six years, describing himself as "the biggest hypocrite ever."
