LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip' Season 4 star Kristen Taekman is still married to her husband Josh Taekman amid his dating site scandal.

The couple is seemingly happier than ever since their marriage in 2005, and often share photos on social media.

Kristen and Josh recently celebrated Friendsgiving together and the Bravo star shared a cuddled-up photo with her husband. She gushed in the captions, "I’m so grateful for all of these wonderful and inspiring friends coming together for a beautiful week together!! What a beautiful Friendsgiving!"

However, Josh was one of the high-profile victims of the hack on Ashley Madison, a dating website for people seeking to have affairs. Hackers dumped stolen data online that revealed login details, email addresses and payment transaction information for some 32 million users of the site.

It was revealed that Josh joined Ashley Madison's dating site in 2011 and made at least 62 payments to the service. Meanwhile, neither Josh nor Kristen confirmed whether he met up with anyone from the site.

Meanwhile, after the Ashley Madison scandal, Kristen was allegedly left heartbroken and embarrassed. A source shared to People at the time, "Kristen is extremely embarrassed and upset over thinking [Josh] was having affairs."
