A source told The Sun at the time: "The decision was made by TLC earlier this week to cancel the show.

"The family was told over the phone shortly after and it's still very hush, hush. The petition from those who boycotted Counting On was hard to ignore, and sponsors were very concerned following Josh's arrest.”
