Catelynn
So Tyler has rented a house in Arizona to be near Catelynn? While I think a nice house in Arizona away from his family will be good for him. It seems it is making running his business even more difficult. Apparently his mother is helping out with the shipping stuff. Amber’s parents are still there.
Tyler and Nova go to have lunch with Catelynn. Tyler has an update from Butch. He’s on his third step. Apparently he didn’t take Tyler’s call when he had the opportunity because he working through a lot of shame and guilt. Butch calls and says that all the other people in the facility are really rich and he feels a bit out of place but he is still working the steps.
Maci
Since it’s now been verified that Ryan is back on Heroin (and Tinder) the scenes where Bentley goes to visit seem even creepier than before when we just suspected. Maci is going to go visit Catelynn. Taylor says he is fine holding down the fort with her gone. How many kids do they have now three? That’s a handful! Their whole house is a giant toy box.
It’s time for some Mack. She is trying to get her kid out of the car and tells him to stop acting like his daddy. The kid screams back, “I am not like my daddy!” Wow. That’s some great parenting there. Then Mack and Ryan bitch about Maci. Also, Mack makes it seem like she has the kid the majority of the time. It’s split pretty much in half with her having him on the weekends and returning him on Tuesday. Except when she is filming. Apparently she left Tennessee this weekend and is in NYC filming something with MTV. Probably lying talking about Ryan’s arrest.
Maci comes to Taylor’s house and they head off to the treatment facility. Catelynn talks to Maci about her miscarriage. Maci shares that she also had a miscarriage this early. Maci says she didn’t tell Taylor she was pregnant for two months. Maci and Ryan leave and head back to the house. They talk about their miscarriages and how it affected them.
Ryan’s parents take Ryan, Mack, Bentley and Hudson bowling. A producer tells Jen that Ryan is a good stepdad. Sigh. While Ryan’s dad seems to be encouraging them to have a baby, because WTF? Jen tells the producer they need to wait a couple of years to be sure “he is secure in his health.” Ryan has gained a ton of weight.
Amber
Amber, Andrew and the baby girl whose name I can’t even remember at the moment because her mother never calls her by her name, are all still in Florida. Amber saw on social media that Gary and his wife were calling her a bad mom on a recent episode of the show. Amber vents to a producer about how they are calling her an absent mother and that it’s just not true. Does Amber realize she is on TV? Because we have seen how she is barely around Leah and always off with some dude somewhere while Gary and Kristina raise her kid. I’m not sure who is going to raise the baby she has cooking now. Andrew is no Gary and she hasn’t found out about his past record yet. Also on Marriage Family Bootcamp Matt was telling the others what medications Amber was on and they bleeped one out but it sounded like it started with sub so my guess is she is on suboxone. I certainly hope that is not true because she is drinking. Amber only saw Leah twice all summer according to Gary. Amber is furious about that comment because…. are you ready for this? She saw her three times!
After Amber calls Gary to bitch him out, Gary relates the phone conversation to Kristina. He says that Leah didn’t see her mother for months at a time because Amber was depressed. He points out that you can’t just take a break from being a parent. He’s pissed because she gets mad at him for her deficiencies.
Amber’s week in Florida is over and Gary is ready to have his kid back. It’s clear he missed her a lot during that week. Holy Crap. I thought the Winnebago was for production but they drove it from Indiana to Florida? I don’t think I’d let my kid go on that trip with Amber’s flavor of the month driving. How is Leah’s only bag a paper sack full of toys? I guess she just leaves the clothes with her mother?
When Amber got home she started trashing Kristina on social media. Amber said Kristina cheated on her husband for money and TV. She says her ex got a restraining order on her. Kristina replies the restraining order was to keep his kids from filming. Kristina is worried about Leah at school when all the parents and teachers read her social media rants.
Amber tries to say that she was taping Marriage Boot Camp for three weeks during the summer and that is why she only saw Leah three times. Andrew says that social media says horrible disgusting things. Well, there are a lot of harsh truths that Amber needs to face up to.
i used t o love watching this to see all the drama. Now all I see is entitled brats with too much money and borderline child abuse. It’s painful to watch some of this. The kids are old enough now to know what is going on with their dysfunctional parents.
Exactly. Someone had an idea about forming a new teen mom group with Maci sans Ryan, Chelsea sans Adam, Leah, Kailyn for a little controversy with Gary & Barb as friends of teen mom. That’s a little too boring. Most of them need to walk away and fix their lives. Taking away the teen mom check would be good for them. I say that knowing they would turn around and appear on all the other sad shows like Marriage Bootcamp
I couldn’t help laughing when Amber was arguing “it wasn’t two times you asshole piece of shit, it was three!”
( I added all the cursing cause I’m pretty sure in private that’s how it went, lol)
Amber seeing Leah three times in three months is tragic. Thank God for Gary and Kristina. WTH is wrong with this Andrew guy? How did he film Amber’s crazy ass on Family Boot Camp and decide she’s a good catch? Hope he’s ready to raise a baby alone. She can’t be bothered. And babies wake up before 1pm.
Andrew is about to get a crash course on who Amber is.
Mack just seems like a sinister person. She always has a nasty look on her face and seems to love bringing Maci up all the time just so her and Ryan can talk shit about her. I think Mack purposely puts things in Ryan’s head about Maci just to make waves between them. I completely agree with what Kailyn said about her.
She’s clearly the worst. Probably even worse that Farrah or Amber. She has a young child and married a guy who was high on heroin at the wedding (alledgedly) and very drunk at the do over. and THEN decides to get pregnant ASAP with a guy who is clearly a trainwreck.
She’s a cunt who knew exactly what she was walking into but she is unwilling to hold herself accountable when it’s SO much easier to blame Maci. It’s pitiful watching the two of them sitting on the sofa whining about their lack of custody and big ‘old mean Maci, when we all know every word out of their mouths is disingenuous. Maci took care of that kid when Ryan wasn’t around, his PARENTS had custody on weekends.
Maci does nothing to encourage his recovery. He needs to hold himself accountable for his choices in order to change, not blame his circumstances on another person. Maci eggs him on! Her whole face changes when she speaks about Maci. If Ryan was going to meetings regularly/had a sponsor, he’d learn that It’s empowering taking accountability because then you have the power to change! You’re no longer sitting like a bump on a sofa complaining about the same old shit ad nauseam for years at a time. Powerless.
This show has turned into two groups of coach sitters; Amber and her baby daddy and Mack and Ryan. It’s pitiful.
Did anyone else notice Amber asked Leah what her suitcase looked like after spending a week with her? How would she not know which suitcase belonged to her daughter?
She asked what her BAG looked like she said it was pink and it was a bag probably from a store named Pink as it was a bag full of toys. It was a shopping bag.
Ahhhhhhh…sorry! I thought it was luggage.
Still, she didn’t know what it looked like but Andrew did. I found it weird she didn’t have a suitcase. I don’t think she stays with Amber enough to have a separate wardrobe with her.
I thought it was odd. As a mother, I always knew what my children travelled with. Did all the packing and keeping up with things myself.
I was just going to say that! If I don’t pack it then it doesn’t go ha! Amber is just not a mother. It’s sad because that little girl is precious. Gary and his wife are doing great. How is Amber going to get up non stop for over a year with a new baby???
Maci and Taylor are such good parents. Maci is so lucky to have found someone like Taylor who really loves Bentley like his own. I have no words for Mack and Ryan.
Also Amber is lucky that Gary married Kristina. She’s sweet and is a good Mom and a good influence on Leah.
JustJenn, I thought of you a lot today. There was a wasp caught between my screen and the window since yesterday. I finally found a way to let him out today. xo
I am still about eating meat and wearing fur if you live in a cold place, but I am oddly averse to killing ants and bugs without feeling bad.
I blame you for that.
Awww! That’s how it starts. 😉 Happy Easter, TT!
Is Amber really that tiny? She looks like a little wisp of a thing next to Andrew, and even next to Gary. I hope she finds happiness this time around, then maybe Gary and Kristina will be able to relax more where Leah is concerned. Leah seems like a lovely little girl, so it looks as though Gary’s influence has had an impact, plus I do think Amber loves her daughter, in her own weird, hands-off way. She also seems like someone who is very self-centered and doesn’t put herself out a lot for others, but I hope she steps up to the plate and is a really good mom to the new baby. It’s an exhausting job, and she doesn’t seem like the kind to be happy waking up at all hours and getting no rest, but with her money, and his as a cameraman, they should be able to afford help. Nothing wrong with that, if you can afford it. The baby will be here in about 6 weeks, so good luck to them all for a healthy baby and successful, clean future together.
Amber is on the shorter side, I saw 5’2″ once. Gary and Andrew are huge guys. Amber doesnt look so tiny next to the other teen moms except Farrah who is tall and wearing 6″ heels normally.
I think she will need to hire someone, a baby nurse then a nanny later on. She may give it a go on her on at first. I don’t think she will be able to pull it off-especially long term. It will also depend on the baby’s temperament; easy going, colic etc..It’s not an easy job.
I’d love to be wrong but I suspect I’m not.
Amber basically said that she was out earning money and that’s why she doesn’t see her daughter and that without her earning money that Gary and Kristina would still be living in a shack. All I could think of is that Gary and Kristina and her daughter Leah would still be living in a shack. Because regardless of where they are living Leah would be with them because she can’t and won’t take care of her full-time. She wants thanks and praise from them for the opportunity to be on the show because of her, but she won’t give them any thinks praise or respect for raising her daughter without her.
She’s an addict, she has the mentality of the age she began using; which is probably thirteen or fourteen years old. She operates like a teenager. It’s sad because I think she’s intelligent but she has a lot of strikes against her.
Latest news says that Maci’s protective order is not about the arrest but the fact that Ryan has been threatening her. He approached her and the kids at a ball game. Apparently there was already an order for the husband against Ryan.
The protection order makes more sense now.
I also saw that Mack is in the wind now that the Tinder info is out.
What a dark life for him and the family affected. I hope Ryan finds his bottom and starts the process os climbing up and out soon
I love Tyler. Maci is a great person too. I think they have their struggles but I think those two might just make it and Bently is a great kid. She is very smart for doing all she can to protect him.
