Bette Midler is the latest celeb to weigh in on the controversy surrounding Josh Duggar.
The 69-year-old singer legend took to her Twitter page on Monday to sound off on all the molestation allegations that the 19 Kids and Counting star is facing.
"Josh Duggar resigned from an anti-gay 'family' group due to molestation allegations," Midler shared yesterday. "Kids, is there anything more delicious than irony?" Yikes!
Midler certainly isn't the first famous face to give their opinion of the shocking Duggar controversy. After Josh released an apology statement last week, Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee voiced his support for the Duggar family.

? Bette Midler (@BetteMidler) May 26, 2015"Janet and I want to affirm our support for the Duggar family. Josh's actions when he was an underage teen are as he described them himself, 'inexcusable,' but that doesn't mean 'unforgivable.' He and his family dealt with it and were honest and open about it with the victims and the authorities," the 59-year-old Republican wrote on his Facebook page Friday. "No purpose whatsoever is served by those who are now trying to discredit Josh or his family by sensationalizing the story. Good people make mistakes and do regrettable and even disgusting things. The reason that the law protects disclosure of many actions on the part of a minor is that the society has traditionally understood something that today's blood-thirsty media does not understand—that being a minor means that one's judgement [sic] is not mature. No one needs to defend Josh's actions as a teenager, but the fact that he confessed his sins to those he harmed, sought help, and has gone forward to live a responsible and circumspect life as an adult is testament to his family's authenticity and humility."
Meanwhile, Montel Williams went on a Twitter rant attacking the Duggars and the Family Research Council, the conservative group where Josh worked. "Sorry, Josh Duggar is a bigot, slimebag. Whole family is, and FRC is a scam. Yup, Gay people are the danger to kids? NOPE, JOSH DUGGAR IS," Williams wrote.
