An adult film actress is suing Josh Duggar, claiming the reality TV star assaulted her on two occasions when consensual sex turned rough. Ashley Stamm-Northup, known as Danica Dillon in movies, filed the lawsuit Tuesday. She says Duggar approached her at a Philadelphia strip club in March and paid $600 for lap dances. She alleges he then paid $1,500 for "her company" and they had sex at a hotel. During the act, she claims, he "physically assaulted her to the point of causing her physical and emotional injuries." A few days later, he came to a suburban Philadelphia strip club where she was performing, she says, and tried to apologize for his earlier actions. The lawsuit says she was then assaulted a second time.
She's seeking $500,000 in damages from the former star of TLC's now-canceled 19 Kids and Counting reality show, who has also been implicated in molesting four of his sisters and a babysitter and has admitted to a pornography addiction and cheating on his wife. Stamm-Northup's lawyer, Marc Frumer, said Thursday his client didn't go to police with her allegations. Two calls to a Duggar family attorney and an email to a family spokeswoman weren't returned Thursday. (More 19 Kids and Counting stories.)
