A match made in MTV heaven?
It’s confirmed — Javi Marroquin has moved on. The Teen Mom 2 star opened up in a new E! News article to confirm that he and his new boo are not only official, but they’re totally head-over-heels for each other! While Javi has dated a couple other women since officially ending things with Kailyn Lowry last year, his newest love interest apparently seems different to the star and to his fans.
How Kailyn feels about it? That's a bit more difficult to say...
Messy Divorce
Viewers of Teen Mom 2 have spent the last few months watching Javi Marroquin navigate his messy divorce from Kailyn Lowry in devastating detail.
The most recent season — which ended earlier this week — chronicled a breakup that we all knew was coming. Week to week we watched as Javi and Kailyn went at it, fighting over everything from houses to their kids to who each of them is (or isn’t) spending time with.
Javi is moving on...
It’s been quite a ride, and honestly it didn’t seem like something they would recover from any time soon. It looks like that’s a little further from true than we thought, though.
In fairness, the drama surrounding their divorce actually happened months ago, but it’s easy to forget that when we're just seeing it happen on TV… So, the news of Javi Marroquin’s new girlfriend shocked fans when it broke earlier this week.
MTV Romance
To be fair, the news wasn’t surprising because Javi had a new lady in his life, it’s which new lady he started seeing that caused commotion.
As I’m sure you’ve heard by now, the woman in question is fellow MTV star Madison Walls, who appeared on The Real World: Skeletons in 2015. Talk about the perfect match!
"Definitely"
According to the E Online exclusive, Madison and Javi began talking after fans pointed out that their stories had striking similarities. Walls told E! that she decided to message Javi on Instagram. She said what started as friendly chatting quickly turned into something more. "Javi and I are definitely together," she said. "We are definitely boyfriend and girlfriend."
That’s pretty certain, I suppose.
City of Brotherly Love
The pair recently had their first "IRL" meeting in Philadelphia, and the magic seemed to stay intact. Neither of them had a bad thing to say about their time together to E! News. Javi and Madison seem to be firmly in the honeymoon period.
"I love that he is a gentleman… And that he has morals and just what he stands for," Madison said of her new beau.
You okay, Kail?
So, we’ve established that Javi and Madison are in new-relationship bliss… But the real question is: How Kail is doing with the news? According to RadarOnlline the answer to that one is... “not so well.”
While Kail hasn’t made any official statements about her feelings, rumor has it that Kailyn found out about Javi and Madison’s budding romance the same way the rest of us did — on social media.
Complicated
While it’s unclear whether the news upset her, she really can’t be too mad at her ex about how she found out... considering she got a protection from abuse order, prohibiting Javi from reaching out to her unless it’s directly related to their son, Lincoln.
That said, it’s probably not easy for the currently single and pregnant mother to see that her ex is very publicly moving on. Not to mention, just last week Kail gave some indication on Twitter that she might still be harboring serious feelings for Marroquin.
Subtle Shade?
Despite the fact that Kailyn hasn’t made an official comment on the situation, she did post one eyebrow-raising tidbit to her Twitter. The reality star retweeted J. Cole lyrics the day the article broke, but with a twist that might speak to her feelings about her ex.
Could the small town girl she’s referring to be Madison or is it just a coincidence? It’s hard to say, but all the Teen Moms are great at subtle Twitter shade, so I wouldn’t put it past her.
Maybe Not!
Then again, it’s entirely possible that Kail doesn’t care at all — or at least doesn’t care profoundly. It’s always hard to see an ex move on, but that doesn’t mean that you are jealous and want them back. It just means that humans are a little petty most of the time.
Keep in mind that she is already pregnant by another man and seems to be committed to making herself happy. Considering the timing of her pregnancy, it appears that Kailyn actually moved on quite some time ago.
We'll See
Besides, Javi told E! News that he and Kailyn "are in a good place" at the moment, and he "wish[es] her nothing but the best."
I think it’s probably safe to say that Kailyn feels similarly for Javi and Madison… But only she can tell us for sure.
Luckily, we won’t have to wait long to find out how Kail really feels. Things move fast in the Teen Mom-verse, and Kailyn is sure to say something about it soon!
