I am so behind on recaps that I have not seen the first two episodes of this season. So I am going to try to go through this really quickly because I have lots of other shows in the pipeline and I am just lounging around “in the hole” and not getting things done.
Kailyn
So despite the fact that we have always said pregnancy is nine months, apparently it is closer to ten. I would think in ten months I could decide on the name for a baby. I understand waiting until you actually see the baby to decide from several choices. But I do not under stand having a two month old baby with no name. Apparently, they are calling him Baby Lo. Kailyn seems pissed about the Javi and Brianna situation and she also seems to really be trying to make Javi look bad. She claims he is one way on camera and another way off camera. Where does Kailyn find the random girls to film with? When she does decide to announce the baby’s name she does it while Isaac is napping. Why? Lincoln says he is calling him Baby Lo. The new name is Lux.
The VMAs
It looks like everyone is going to the VMAs and MTV has a glam crew for everyone. I remember when women were capable of doing their own hair and makeup. Nova’s dad go arrested on some sort of drug charge. I hate to hear that, I always liked that kid. Brianna is acting like she and Javi are not a thing, but Javi is taking the kids to Disney and she lives in Orlando so they are going to take their kids together. It looks like just Leah, Brianna and Brianna’s sister went to the VMAs.
Chelsea
It doesn’t seem like Chelsea has any interest in going to the VMAs. She is working with attorneys to add Cole’s last name on to Aubree’s name. It sounds like the dad wants to be financially compensated by agreeing to this. Then Chelsea finds out that Adam has been arrested for domestic assault against his current girlfriend. Also his ex-girlfriend has been granted a five-year restraining order on him based on violent behavior toward her. He is apparently on drugs and one night he broke her arm and locked her in the house.
Jenelle
Jenelle says married life with David out on THE LAND has been just great. You know except for the fact that Kaiser’s grandmother is filing for emergency custody because he appears to be in danger and she’s noticed a lot of bruises. These two are scary. Jenelle blames her mother for Kaiser’s grandma trying to get custody. Also is that pool and Jacuzzi on THE LAND new? Barbara says that Jace tells her that David beats Kaiser’s butt for pooping his diaper. Back in Jenelle’s great life with David, she is crying again over an interview Barbara did about David’s alleged abuse. Jennelle says that David only pretends to punch Kaiser in the face. Oh, okay. Jenelle has nightmares about Barbara. Really, Jenelle?
Leah and Brianna
After the VMAs Leah feels like she has to tell Kail about the Orlando trip with the Javi and Brianna. Of course Kail is mad and is going to call Javi. When I heard Brianna tell the story, it sounded to me like she was going to have her kids, her mom and her sister in a separate hotel room. Kail is retelling the story to Jo saying that Javi and Brianna are sharing a hotel room. Those are two very different things. Brianna has decided not to stay at the hotel. But when the boys call their mom from Orlando, she is pissed that Brianna and the girls are going to the water park with the boys. Everyone seems to be worried about the reunion. This is the reunion we already saw they are talking about. The reunion for this season films this weekend.
The Reunion
Kailyn is worried about taking Baby Lo to the reunion because he is not vaccinated. The other two boys will stay behind and attend school. Brianna has reached out to Kailyn to let her know that she and Javi are just friends and to try to smooth things over, but Kailyn doesn’t seem on track to maintain the peace. Every other word out of her mouth on these two episodes is either “messy” or “shady.”
Leah is taking just Gracie to the reunion as part of their new parenting plan to do more things separately with the twins.
Nathan and his mom are taking Kaiser with them to the reunion because it is their weekend. The custody hearing has been postponed. This maybe because Nathan’s dad is very ill. Or I may be thinking of a different reunion all together. Sometimes real-time and taping time gets confusing. Scenes with Jenelle and David creep me out.
Chelsea brought Aubree and Watson this time. She hasn’t been taking Aubree to reunions for a while but she wanted to come.
Javi seems to want a long distance relationship with Brianna. Brianna seems hesitant to cause issues with Kail.
Speaking of Kail, the hair and makeup room at the hotel isn’t really a room at all and everyone is all smushed together in some sort of equipment area. There is no place for Baby Lo and the sitter to be out of all the hubbub. Kail is not happy and I really don’t blame her this time. Kail doesn’t want to be in the same area with Brianna and Jenelle.
The Teen Mom OG crew rolls in next to film a special with both casts. Kail has to leave to go check on Baby Lo because he’s been crying for an hour and her friend Bone can’t get him to stop. I’m shocked that some random friend named Bone doesn’t know how to care for a newborn.
I remember this special. It seems like a hundred years ago! This is the one where David and Jenelle got really drunk. Actually, they all seem drunk. Drunk David starts aggressively popping all the balloons with something. Apparently, they were in his way. David and Jennelle are acting like they are just leaving but if I recall correctly, they were asked to leave the party. I think David got cut off.
Leah and Brianna have a drunken conversation where Brianna explains to Leah the they way she told the story to Kail had Kail thinking that they were going to be sleeping in the same room in Orlando and that was never the case. Leah was pissed off by the conversation with Brianna. Leah cries about the whole situation.
Wait, after all that Teen Mom 2 Reunion wasn’t even filmed until the next day? The next episode is more of the reunion filming. I feel like Brianna is trying to keep the peace with Kailyn and Kailyn is just fanning the flames. I also think that Brianna joining the show would have been a lot easier if she didn’t let her mother and her sister jump into her situations.
It appears that things with Brianna and Javi did not end well. On the after show, Brianna says that Javi just wants to be on Teen Mom. You know… just like she does and Kailyn does and Jo does and Nathan does.
Thank you for recapping this in addition to your many other shows! Brianna’s whole family is ridiculous and messy. I noticed that pool on THE LAND is new and it is very scary. Jenelle’s skin is looking very rough compared to past seasons. She’s a wreck and looks like hell. And no, its not Barbara’s fault!
Thanks for the recap. Brianna and her brood need to go. I fast forward thru every moment she is on.
I see Kail, Brianna &Javi showing signs of having a brain. Main culprit is Javi. Kail has a right to know what her kids will be exposed to on the vacation. He wasn’t up front about it. 2nd, it’s pretty normal to get butt hurt when your ex moves on. Brianna does work in the same show. Javi knew there would be issues which is why he wasn’t honest about it. He should get some backbone and say, this is the deal. Kail shouldnt be rude and dismissive of Brianna because he has moved on and lied about it. Brianna is being messy by hooking up with Javi. She said that to Leah knowing it would be repeated. She saw a new baby daddy with a job. What a jackpot. She knew the deal, hell its documented on a reality show that she is on. The other thing is that Issac is not his son. Jo needs to know who his son will be around. If I thought my kid would be around Brianana’s mother I would be concerned. She has been known to remove her red heels and chase Devoin because obviously he needed a beating.
Jenelle and David just piss me off. It was reported he had a switchblade to tear through the balloons. We saw the back of it. What did it look like from the front. A drunk whacking his way through like Anthony Perkins in Psycho. That’s why Leah and Chelsea wanted their kids out of the room ASAP.
CPS is overworked in every state. They don’t have time to come around out of curiosity. Maybe they want to be on Teen Mom too. Why is Jenelle constantly being visited by CPS. It’s not because they are fine. Did anyone else notice the fist sized holes in the wall? I imagine Doris had pictures. I am sorry her husband got sick. Nathan is the POS for not doing what he needs to do to take care of his son..
I have a pucture of my mothers and her sisters going to school. Lice had been on some child at the school. Her children WOULD NOT have lice. The remedy In the 30’s was kerosene. You also pulled the hair back so the lice couldn’t get in. Jenelle’s pigtails look exactly like the sisters going to school with their lice proof hairdo. I don’t know if Jenelle used kerosene as a styling product.
My grandmother WOULD NOT allow her girls to have lice. I was watching a trading video when I wrote that. It must have been more interesting than I thought
I was very disappointed in Leah letting Brianna make her cry. This is her show. Don’t let the new girl scare you like that. Man up & stop being a crybaby! you are the OG not her! And please producers stop giving Brittany and her mom air time. I’m getting really turned off already with this “Real Housewives” drama. I guess Briana is trying to be the “Farrah” of Teen Mom 2
It is a very intertesting show because they are not at the point where they want to hide certain things from the camera, to finally be adults and get some privacy. However, their fame will not allow it and everyone wants that $$$
Brianna said they were going to share a suite.
Javi told Kail he wanted to take Lincoln and Jo’s son Isaac, to have quality alone time, but then it involved Brianna, her suster, mother, aunt, Nova, Stella and…
And he didn’t tell Paul or Jo. Brianna told Leah, who made it sound like a shared room, not a suite.
Brianna is on the show for drama. ?
I didn’t get the impression Brianna was trying to keep the peace at all. Especially when she’s calling Kail to say nothing is happening between her and Javi, while simultaneously tweeting Javi and calling him “Papi.” No one likes being lied to, especially when it affects their children.
The Dejesus coven is so inappropriate and behave terribly. The conversations they have in front of Bri’s children borderline on child abuse.
Totally agree!!!
Kail, not Paul!
I agree that I would not want any children subjected to Brianna’s chaotic family..
I feel so bad for Devon. They are doing everything in their power to keep him from Nova. Nova looks exactly like him and as we have all witnessed she loves him so much.
If Brianna doesn’t change her attitude and tell her mother and sister to stay out of it, Nova will grow up to hate her for keeping her father away.
It is so hard to watch Devon being treated so badly.
I can’t believe people are saying that David stabbing the balloons “wasn’t that bad.” He’s freakin crazy. It was scary.
Especially since he seemed to access that knife pretty quickly and there were people standing right there at the balloons. David was hammered and pissed at being shit off.
Lol *shut off, but same difference
When I was a kid and adults swore in front of me I was shocked. When Bri, her mother and sister swear and yell in front of Nova the kid has no reaction Jace reacts the same way when Janelle and Barb or Jenelle and Dave fight in front of him. If my parents were to fight like that in front of me when I was younger I would be in tears. These poor kids are never going to have a normal relationship when they’re older because of the role models they have now. At least Chelsea is doing her best to keep that POS Adam away from Aubree.
Does anyone else think Kaiser should be potty trained by now. He is 3. You cant train a child by giving him a whoopin’ after an accident. There is some work you have to do. I guess Barbara trained Jace.
I always forget how much y’all hate Brianna and am always shocked by your comments. Brianna has been dealt a very tough hand dealing with her mother and and sister and she sees to have come out of it relatively okay.
I’m concerned about her self esteem with the MASSIVE amount of surgeries she has had. I think Brianna is smart and sweet and it is her family y’all are reacting to. And the whole “she just wants to be on the show” thing can be said about EVERYONE on all these stupid shows. She needs the money probably more than most of them.
On her own i think she’s ok, but she is never on her own. They come as a package and it’s not healthy or entertaining.
I am sorry to tell you but Brianna is far from smart or sweet. I know her because we share a mutual acquaintance who also happens to live in the same apt complex as the De Jesus Coven. What you see on the show is not an exaggeration in the least, they all (the adults) act like complete trash and have the worst language you ever want to hear, including Brianna. Smart and sweet—-not by a long shot.
I can’t think of one sweet thing I have seen Briana do or say, not even with her children. She exposes them to an awful lot of yelling, aggression and profanity. It’s no different then Jennelle.
I’m so tired of Jenelle! Why get rid of Farrah and keep Jenelle? They are one in the same. Both are disrespectful horrible mothers that need their children removed from their homes.
I can see Nathan and David getting a knockdown, drag-out fight before it is all said and done and it will totally be Jenelle’s fault.
I don’t expect Jenelle to last. This might be her last season. In addition to the never ending problem called David she has now refused to come to the reunion though she is contracted to attend. Production is said to be afraid of David. Jenelle. Jenelle and David are not as horrible to production as Farrah was but the have lied to production and been caught. It seems David is not being filmed but he is a constant presence. The children, esp. Kaiser could be harmed. The liability of keeping her might be too much.
If they do get rid of Jenelle the show might tank. There are no Ambers waiting in the wings to create drama. Chelsea, Leah and Kail (somewhat) have grown up, settled in and don’t make great tv.
TT- I agree with you about Bri. She is usually the one trying to calm her mother and sister down. Bri has done a good job discussing what she needs from her kids fathers and she has done it without jumping on a table and threatening to beat their ass. I was surprised to learn of all the plastic surgery she has had. Several of the teen moms have had some type of surgery . I think women should do what ever they want if it helps them improve their self esteem. I just think it’s so sad that plastic surgery is so popular with such young women.
I had to go look up about the surgery. Yikes!! She posted before and after pictures of her Brazilian Butt lift and new breast implants twice the size of the implants she already had. Plus, she had liposuction and a labiaplasty, which sounds painful.
This is said to be the reason for her breakup with Javi.
And now Nova’s friends, or their parents can see it all online!
And Brian a posted that Nova now wants a blog job and insisted on wearing a training bra, at the age of 6.
Brittany also got work done.
Hopefully this was pro bono since she posted pictures online with the grinning surgeon.
At least I hope some money is being saved for Nova’s education. Heck, how about Briana’s education?
The doctor is using the girls for advertising for his practice. I think it is the same doctor that did Kail. He literally does ALL of his procedures on them at one. I think he should lose his license.
I agree completely!! I hope they buy the houses and are not mortgaged to the max.
I would think they would owe taxes on the freebies..
Yes! Lottery winner is the perfect analogy! And suddenly family, friends and those claiming some connection are there with hands out.
And then throw in think giant tv complex, sucking them dry.
DR. Miami hasn’t met a reality star who didnt need work. He did the work on Amber’s boobs and gave Kail a total head to toe makeover. Kail got pregnant almost immediately after.
I think I must be really old. I have worked all my lufe to keep my butt and hips small (with less than stellar results) and I can’t help but notice that the trend is huge and round. I know Brianna and Kail got butt implants. I was born before my time ?
I think MTV puts money in a trust for the kids. I don’t know if the parents have access to it but I’ve heard they put money away for them.
Most all of these girls show why so many lottery winners die or go broke within five years of a big win. These girls were not equipt to handle having money. It’s the same with a lot of the housewives. These kids/women are independent contractors which means they get their entire check with no taxes or insurance withheld. It takes a great deal of discipline to pay the taxes and purchase the health insurance and pay off your debts when there is suddenly six figures in the bank when you never had a livable wage before. Then people try to ponzi scam them into skinny tea crap and offer them way too much free plastic surgery and tell what they need to do and buy and wear to be famous and the next thing you know their money is gone.
I truly feel sorry for Nova and Stella. Their mother, grandmother and aunt are awful examples of parenting and have absolutely no idea how to behave as role models for these poor unfortunate children. These women are seriously lacking in common sense and education, but have plenty of vulgarity, venom, and ignorance. The language and drama and nonstop disrespect of the fathers of these children is painful to watch. You Brianna are responsible for raising these children and are not giving these innocents a chance for a successful future. Do you feel proud to watch yourself on tv and see your behavior? Please stop having children that you are unable to care for financially, emotionally and in every other possible way.
Same story applicable to jennelle. Why keep having kids? Your life isn’t chaotic enough. David is a scary man with raging anger issues evidenced on film.
Shame on MTV for allowing the attacks, cursing, threats of violence against Kaila and her friend and by Jennelle against her mother to happen during filming. It is not good tv. It is awful to watch and seems to embolden Brianna and her crew as well as Jennelle that the chaos us being taped.
If this is the way they act on camera I cannot even imagine what goes on behind closed doors
