Today is the day that Fox News' Megyn Kelly will be talking with Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, following the molestation revelations of their eldest son, Josh Duggar.

According to US Magazine, the interview that will air on Wednesday, June 3, 2015 will discuss the details of their son's molestation scandal.

"I'll take that reputation as a tough but fair journalist," Kelly stated earlier this week. "However, this isn't going to be a cross-examination of a family. It's going to be an interview. I want to hear their story. And I think America wants to hear their story now."

"Nothing is off limits," the Fox reporter continued. "Well, almost nothing. I don't plan on getting into the specific details about what was done because my understanding is the victims don't want to discuss that either."

MStars News previously reported that the 19 Kids and Counting show was cancelled after Josh Duggar resigned from his position at Family Research Council, and made a public apology.

"Twelve years ago, as a young teenager, I acted inexcusably for which I am extremely sorry and deeply regret. I hurt others, including my family and close friends," Josh previously stated. "I confessed this to my parents who took several steps to help me address the situation. We spoke with the authorities where I confessed my wrongdoing, and my parents arranged for me and those affected by my actions to receive counseling. I understood that if I continued down this wrong road that I would end up ruining my life."

Josh's alleged victims were his own sisters. Some suspect that his sisters, Jana, who was 12 years old back then, Jill, 11, Jessa, 9 Jinger, 8 and Joy-Anna, who was only 4 in 2002 were his household victims.

Advertisers like Walgreens, Sherwin Williams, CVS pharmacies and food branch, ConAgra Foods also decided to end their ties with the Duggars.

Despite all of the drama, the Duggar family does have some supporters including Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee. Kelly claims that she doesn't agree with how people are starting to lash out about this story, when there were other similar stories.

"Bill Clinton was accused of rape. He has been accused by several women of sexually assaulting them," Kelly eplained. "But the fact that a presidential candidate has posed with some random member of the family that's going through this issue is somehow a problem for the GOP'ers?"

Kelly's interview with be released on The Kelly File on Wednesday, June 3 at 9 p.m. ET. A one-hour Kelly File special that took place at the family's home in Springdale, Arkansas will air on Fox Friday, June 5.
