Fans are worried!
After being on the air for nearly ten years, the Teen Mom cast members are used to rumors circulating about them. But not all rumors were created equal.It’s one thing for fans to believe that one star has had secret nip and tuck — and it’s an entirely different thing for fans to believe a star is in a dangerous or abusive situation.
Kailyn Lowry hasn’t always seen eye-to-eye with her third baby daddy, but could things be even worse than they seem? Her own co-star is spreading rumors that Chris has gotten violent with her in the past. Is there any truth to the rumors?
Dark Rumors
Kailyn Lowry is known for being strong and never backing down from something that she believes in. But domestic violence doesn’t discriminate, and now fans are beginning to worry that Kailyn could be a victim herself. Although rumors have stirred about the topic in the past, now there’s someone very close to Kailyn who’s suggesting they are true: her co-star, Briana DeJesus.
“Did y’all like #teenmom2 tonight?” Briana wrote on Instagram. One fan wrote in, “I wish a b*tch would talk sh*t about me in front of my kids. I would mop the floor with her a** period!” Briana responded by blowing up a dark rumor.
“Too bad she didn’t and would never lol,” Briana wrote. “And I wasn’t talking sh*t and shut the f*ck up cause she gets beat the f*ck up by [Chris Lopez] in front of her kids. Goodbye.”
Not True!
It didn’t take long before Briana received backlash for her rumor spreading. “There’s no winning with her saying that,” pointed out reddit user MaybeTennessee. “She’s either put Kail’s business out there or she’s making sh*t up. Even if she did hear it from Javi, it’s still not her place, especially when she lasted 2.6 seconds as his girl.” User clevelandcray wrote, “Brianna is unlikable as it is. Does she not realize she's not helping herself by doing sh*t like this? She's so cringeworthy.” User Mrs_stepford wrote, “This is none of Brianna's d*mn business. Kail isnt her boyfriend ex wife anymore. Shut the f*ck up.”
Fans expected Kailyn to be furious about this, but her response was surprisingly small. She simply tweeted, “Some people aren’t even worth the time and energy. I’ve worked too hard on my books & degree to throw it away on someone who runs their mouth for a living.”
Even Chris got in on the discussion, apparently having heard the rumors. He tweeted, “Let’s just keep my name out the teen mom drama ok? Ok,” he wrote. He added, “1 more thing lol I NEVER beat my [baby mama].”
Any Truth?
However, it wasn’t long before fans also pointed out that this isn’t the first time rumors of Chris being abusive have come to the surface. In fact, an insider allegedly close to Kailyn was the first to blow up the rumors. They started soon after Lux’s birth when Kailyn was keeping Chris from seeing his son.
“I don’t want to keep Lux from Chris. That’s not the goal,” Kailyn explained to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup. “The goal is to take some time right now to figure out what works for us. I’ve obviously been through this before and I do want Lux to eventually have a relationship with his dad. Right now the circumstances aren’t right for that, though.”
However, The Ashley did some “digging” into the circumstances that Kailyn was referring to, and found someone close to Kailyn who alleged that Chris was violent with her.
Violent Past
“She’s trying her best to keep the real reason off the show,” a “production source” told The Ashley. “So far, the drama with Chris hasn’t really been covered for the show, but that’s only because it is hard to do when Chris won’t sign on to appear or have his name on ‘Teen Mom 2.’” But another source had more to say.
“Chris was violent with Kail multiple times, once while she was holding [Lux],” the source said. The source claimed that Chris “tried to break into Kail’s house at least once to see the baby and left damage on her door frame and window,” The Ashley reports.
The source added that “Some of the film crew noticed a hole was punched in Kail’s garage door, and she confided in someone on the crew that Chris did it. Nothing was filmed about it, though.” They added, “Kail is really trying to keep this off the show because of how bad she got ripped by fans last time when she was dealing with Javi.”
At the time, Javi seemed to be the one Kailyn had in her corner! “Kail and I talk everyday and right now I know she’s safe,” Javi told Radar Online.“I got her back.”
First Priority
Javi added that Chris’s behavior didn’t come as a surprise to him. “I know how it’s going to play out,” he said. “It goes back to when she wanted me to meet him. He’s not going to do anything for my son. It doesn’t surprise me at all.”
He also claimed that he was making Kailyn and her boys a “priority.”
“Make sure she’s safe, make sure the kids are safe, all three of them,” he said. “Make sure they’re all safe. I do trust Kail in the sense where if they ever are not safe she will come to me and ask for help and get out of that situation. As far as being a mom, she always has those kids first. Her safety is second.” He added, “I hope she can get away from all the negativity and be happy. She deserves it.”
Kailyn herself has never spoken out about any abuse rumors, but she has made it clear that she’s less than impressed with Chris’s presence in her life. After Chris recently confessed his love for her, Kailyn blew it off.
Love Lost
“Did you ever love Kail?” a fan asked Chris on Twitter. “Do you guys have a good co-parenting relationship for Lux? He’s really cute by the way.”
Chris replied, “Yea…” confirming that he did love Kailyn Lowry while they were together. “And we’re co-parenting.”
The fan replied, “Oh wow. That’s great. Some of us were under the impression you had nothing to do with the baby. Do you help financially? Was this something recent or have you been there since day 1?” Chris replied, “I wonder what gave y’all that impression,” with thinking and laughing emojis. He then added, “I watched my son shot out the box lol.”
But Kailyn didn’t buy it. “He didn’t love me, stop making something outta nothing. Goodnight.” But on a recent episode of her podcast Coffee Convos, Kailyn revealed that she had it bad for Chris. In fact, she had it so bad that he basically ruined love for her.
“I don’t believe in true love… since Chris,” she spilled. “I really thought Chris and I were… I would have done anything for him.”
Over It!
These days, she’s far less head over heels. She recently threw serious shade at Chris for his parenting.
Chris took to Instagram to share some adorable photos of his rapidly growing son, captioning this adorable shot, “Can’t complain.” But apparently, Kailyn found something to complain about.
“Don’t be an Instagram parent,” Kailyn tweeted… all the way from her Hawaiian vacation! Chris fired back, “Buuuut a person who literally made a living off of putting their kids on tv and social media but hey who am I to talk.” He added, “honestly not worth my time lol.” Later, he tweeted, “I might have to violate someone today,” with a laughing emoji.
Amid the hefty accusations of Chris’s abuse, many fans are skeptical of the source. After all, Briana and Kailyn haven’t exactly been on good terms lately. And things have been even more tense since a Teen Mom sneak peek revealed she and Javi almost got engaged!
No thanks!
“Briana really loves me and I see that,” Javi says, revealing an engagement ring he seems to have picked out for his girlfriend!
In the next moment, his friend says what everyone’s thinking: “Javi, you’re moving way too quick.”
Briana seems to have been very aware of Javi’s intentions. “If he does ask you to marry him, are you going to say yes?” one of her friends asks. Briana responds, “I don’t know!”
Briana has since spoken out about the ring in question. She revealed to Radar Online that Javi never ended up getting down on one knee. However, she did say that she may have said yes if “things were a little different.” But she did add that “[The ring] was pretty!”
Cluster What?
Now Kailyn is speaking out about their relationship. Things got messy during the Teen Mom 2 season premiere when Briana revealed she and Javi would be taking their children on a Disney vacation together.
After the episode aired, a fan shared advice with Kailyn. “Just let Issac tell u everything that happens on that trip kids know everything lol at least Issac wont lie to u like Javi does,” they wrote.
Kailyn responded, “[Isaac and Lincoln] came home calling [Nova and Stella] their cousins. That’s the kinda clusterf**k it turned into.”
Another fan responded, "Whats wrong with kids calling each other cousins??!! Better than them saying 'my new sisters.'" Kailyn responded, "Bc the fact that they then dated and were engaged.... how was i supposed to explain that they were not 'cousins' but 'step siblings.'"
There are definitely multiple sides to this story — and it’s not impossible Briana could be denying an engagement. After all, she and Javi dropped endless hints that they were considering marriage.
Chill!
“If we plan on getting married u gonna have to eat some shrimp lmfao,” she said. Even for Briana, that’s some serious commitment real fast!
Fans immediately began tweeting the couple about how quickly things were moving. “LMFAO CHILL. You’ve been dating how long? weeeaaaakkkk,” wrote user @misskayce2496.
User @starrshep_ wrote, “Didn’t y’all get together like an hour ago? Chillllllllllllll.”
Talking marriage so early in a relationship might scare a lot of people away, but it seems that Javi is ready to settle down just as much. A fan tweeted of Javi and Briana: “Haven’t they known each other for a while? I’m glad it happened. They look adorable together, and it’s the first time Bri looks super happy.”
Javi replied, “That’s what people don’t understand. The foundation has been there for years now we just build our empire.”
Well, now we all know how that “empire” turned out!
