The news is official: Kailyn Lowry just confirmed her pregnancy!
This comes after weeks of rumors and speculation after Chris Lopez’s aunt shared the news across social media. It seems that Kailyn wanted to wait and confirm the news on her own time, and now after weeks of wondering whether the rumors were true, fans finally have their answer!
Keep reading for the full story and to read exactly how Kailyn broke the news.
When Kailyn Lowry was pregnant with her third child, she did everything in her power to keep the news a secret. She denied the pregnancy for weeks after news broke, and even after it became obvious she was pregnant, she refused to tell fans who the baby daddy was.
This time around, she's admitting to it!
It’s true that the Teen Mom world is notorious for spreading fake pregnancy rumors. From girls wearing baggy clothing that may resemble a baby bump to complaining about nausea that could be morning sickness, it doesn’t take much. But this time, Kailyn herself is confirming her pregnancy!
Fans weren't sure whether Kailyn Lowry would end up having a fourth child, even though she's revealed in the past that she's open to the idea. After all, her relationship with her first three baby daddies did not pan out very well after she had children with them.
Her relationship with Jo Rivera fizzled out before their child Isaac was even out of diapers, and the same pattern happened with Javi Marroquin.
As for her third baby daddy, Chris Lopez, he and Kailyn were never really in an official relationship when she got pregnant! That's probably why Kail went to such lengths to keep secret who she was having a child with, even though that didn't work out for either of them in the long run.
Considering her history of baby daddies, it's no wonder that fans are so shocked who she's having her fourth child with!
It’s no secret that Kailyn has been open to having another child. She’s shared numerous times that she wants to have a big family, and that she would love to have her first daughter.
Luckily, unlike her situation when she was 16 and pregnant, Kailyn can afford to raise another child. It might not be considered the best idea by many fans, especially since those MTV paychecks will inevitably stop coming at one point or another. But with her recent haircare line Pothead launched, Kailyn should have enough money to take care of herself and her big family when her fame ends.
And now, it looks like that will be a family of five.
At first, Kailyn herself wasn't sharing the news. But someone close to her leaked the story: the family of the man who got her pregnant.
And how do we know this family, you ask? Well… It appears that the baby daddy is none other than Chris Lopez himself!
Kailyn and Chris’s relationship hasn’t exactly been a romantic love story before or after Kailyn gave birth to their child, Lux. Do you think it will change since they are apparently having another child together?!
“Wanna give a big congratulations to @kailynsfamily on the new addition [due] july 25.. Cant wait to meet baby number 2 for us- 4 for her,” wrote Instagram account @hhlg1975 today along with shots of an ultrasound. The account belongs to none other than Chris’s aunt!
As if this wasn’t enough, the nails in the photo clearly matched up to Kailyn’s nails on her Instagram back in December.
Now, we have Kailyn confirming all of this is true!
But even though this news was leaked weeks ago, Kailyn remained silent on the topic. Even though she skirted around the news, she did indirectly acknowledge all the rumors, implying that people didn't know the full story.
Her reluctance to confirm the news had fans wondering if Chris's Aunt made all of this up for attention. But now, there's no question in anyone's mind.

Kailyn spilled the news in a partnership with a company called Peanut.
"We’re confirming the news, baby #4 is coming soon! 🎉" she shared.
She went on:
"I’m almost 16 weeks pregnant & it’s been a rough few months this time around. I've had nausea, morning sickness, and absolutely no energy. 😭 This week I’m starting to feel a bit better and I'm really hoping it stays this way!🤰🏻@Peanut has been an amazing support for me since I found out I was pregnant again. Going through nausea and morning sickness while trying to keep the news a secret can be quite isolating. There are so many helpful threads on the app from other women who have been through it too. It's always reassuring to know you're not alone. Whether you're already a mom, pregnant, or trying to conceive, I really recommend you join the @peanut community. It's an amazing space to build friendships, find support and learn from other women at a similar stage in life. There's nothing like support from other women to get you through. ❤ #Peanutapp."
Needless to say, fans have mixed feelings about this news... especially considering that Kailyn revealed it via an advertisement!
"This is the strangest thing I have ever seen," wrote reddit user jackiehennedy. "Buy this app oh btw i’m pregnant."
But user littlered7709 wrote, "I agree it's very tacky. But she gets paid for it. And not only does she get paid for it, she knows more people will view that post vs a normal ad post so she may be making more for it than normal. Tacky, but profitable. And isn't that the motto of MTV? Lol."
Others are excited for the news.
"I'm happy for her. Being a downer about a pregnancy isn't going to make it go away, and it won't help the mother. I hope she has an uneventful pregnancy, a healthy baby, and can enjoy it every step of the way," wrote Motherof2cubs.
User kingjoffreysmum wrote, "I hope she gets what she needs from this 4th pregnancy and that the baby is healthy and safe. I don’t see the point in tearing her down; she’s made her choice and that’s that. I’m disappointed in where she is 10 years down the line though, I can’t lie. I wanted so much better for her; but she’s failed herself with her choices time and again."
Meanwhile, this pregnancy might not be as easy as the last. After all, Kailyn's feud with her baby daddy Chris has gotten intense... and even violent. Read on for the full story.
Chris Lopez Arrested!
When Kailyn Lowry’s third pregnancy came to light, fans thought that things couldn’t possibly get any more complicated.
Well, it looks like her fourth pregnancy is definitely proving that wrong.
Amid a host of in-fighting and feuds between both the source who leaked the pregnancy and the father of her fourth baby himself, Kailyn is also facing a host of legal issues… and now those issues are turning criminal as news of Chris Lopez’s arrest has come to light.
Chris’s warrant was issued due to “Criminal Contempt Of A Domestic Violence/Harassment/Offensive Touching/ Menacing Breach Of Release,” according to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup. The site theorizes that this is because Chris “violated the terms of his release [after an Oct. 2019 arrest] by allegedly violating the order.”
Chris’s two October arrests seem to be due to “violence against Kail,” according to The Ashley. The outlet also reports that Chris will be due to face the charges in a court date on January 21.
Chris could be in legal trouble if he approaches Kailyn, and could be arrested for violating the order, The Ashley reports.
The outlet also points out that Chris “was not listed as an inmate of the county jail” at the time the article was published.
As if this wasn’t enough, The Ashley also reports that Chris attempted to give up his parental rights to his own son, Lux, back in October as well! Apparently, the judge refused to sign off on Chris’s request. Kailyn later clarified on Twitter that Chris was unable to sign off on his rights unless there was another individual willing to adopt Lux in his place.
Soon after this news broke, it came out that Chris was arrested and landed himself in jail!
The Ashley reported this update, sharing that Chris was in custody of the Delaware Department of Corrections.
According to the outlet, Chris actually turned himself in during his scheduled court hearing.
The Ashley reports that this arrest was “for violating the domestic violence protective order that Kail took out on him in the fall of 2019.”
However, Chris was then bailed out the same evening of his arrest and is now no longer in custody.
Like you, we want more details -- but apparently, we won’t be getting them on the show.
“The producers have definitely tried to get Kail to film about the legal issues and the possible pregnancy story, but her lawyer has shut it down,” a source informed The Ashley.
Fans were not happy about this reveal.
“I can't believe they aren't filming this, lmao. We are supposed to watch footage during this time of Kail pretending everything is business as usual while this juicy dumpster fire is burning behind the scenes?! What the f*ck is the point of this show anymore? CANCEL IT,” wrote user lesmullet on reddit. User snazzypeach agreed, “Who does Kail think she is? Nobody in this franchise is even remotely famous or has the title CEO next to their name. Kail hasn’t been interesting in seasons and if she doesn’t want to film this tea then cut her off and anything worth mentioning can be posted online/in this sub. Treat her like we do Jenelle and Farrah. Seen but not heard.”
And that's not even to mentioning the controversy over whether Kailyn will vaccinate her fourth child...
Kailyn Accused of Endangering Children for Fame
The Teen Mom stars put pretty much all of their lives on social media, so we know everything there is to know about them, right?
Right??
According to some fans, this just might not be the case for Kailyn Lowry. Fans believe there might be a lot of things going on in her life behind the scenes, some of which might be endangering her children… and others.
Kailyn Lowry has never been subtle about the way that she feels. When she really cares about a topic, she’s not shy about putting it out on her social media, but lately, that’s gotten in her in a lot of trouble.
Kailyn is, somehow unsurprisingly, a very open anti-vaxxer. This means that she’s fallen victim to the widespread and completely unproven rhetoric that vaccinations contain harmful substances and can cause birth defects and conditions such as autism.
Kailyn also has a very large platform, meaning that she can spread this rhetoric to millions of fans and followers. It’s no wonder that many fans find this upsetting.
Kailyn later took to her podcast, Coffee Convos, to clarify her choice:
“I definitely think this is a controversial topic, and I don’t want to lose listeners because of my opinion — but, I did vaccinate Isaac, because to me, I didn’t know any better, and I gave — I let them vaccinate him with whatever they basically said that he needed. And I feel like I was ignorant, and didn’t do research, and didn’t know any better.
With Lincoln, I knew a little bit more, and I started to research more, and that’s when I think the conversations of vaccines started to really be going on with me and my friends that became moms. And there were documentaries on Netflix, and all kinds of, just, news that I would try to look into. Lincoln did not get all of his vaccines. I definitely picked and chose which ones I felt like were necessary, and he did not get them all at once. So, he did one or two vaccines at a time. And again, those were the ones that I felt that he needed.
Lux is 18 months and he is not vaccinated. He hasn’t ever really been sick, and for me, I just think the more research that I do, and the more educated I’ve become, I just don’t vaccinate him. So, that’s my opinion, and I don’t judge Lindsey if she chooses to vaccinate, or anyone else who chooses to vaccinate — that’s your prerogative. You’re a parent, you know what’s best for your child, and I’m not here to judge.”
But now, fans have a unique theory about Kailyn’s choice.
“I have a theory that Kail is only stoking the anti vaccine fires to stay relevant and get people to talk about her.” wrote user bennybatman on reddit.
User stassieee wrote, “I think her kids are vaccinated honestly lol.” And user Jerniearf30 agreed, “Everything kail does is for attention and an attempt to stay relevant. Negative attention is still attention.”
Some were very incensed by this concept. “Spreading dangerous misinformation especially when you have a huge platform just to stay edgy and relevant is downright disgusting,” wrote user jetgurri.
But not everyone agreed. “I think Kail is just genuinely stupid and doesn’t have secret agenda to stay relevant,” wrote user tinyheadedcolossus.
Others fell somewhere in the middle. “I think Kail is stupid enough to really believe conspiracy theories but she’s doubled down on it because it brings her attention. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out all the kids are actually fully vaccinated,” wrote user hawkcarhawk.
Recently, Kailyn really doubled down when she compared vaccines to the holocaust!
Gone Too Far? Kailyn Lowry Compares Vaccines to the Holocaust
Kailyn Lowry isn't one to keep her opinions to herself, but this time fans are concerned that she really went too far. The tattoo-covered Teen Mom star is notoriously anti-vaccination, and she shares plenty of anti-vax content on her social media.
What set fans off this time is an Instagram post that compared vaccinations to mass murder. They were livid about the nature of the post and felt the implications are more harmful than she intended.
Kailyn Lowry’s anti-vaccination stance has been a difficult topic for fans, and this time she may have lost more fans than she bargained for.
Her anti-vax lifestyle has raised concerns over her children’s safety in the past. When Kailyn first had Isaac and Lincoln, she made an incredibly controversial decision to not vaccinate her children. Shortly after Lincoln’s birth, Kailyn opened up about her decision. “We aren’t vaccinating,” she tweeted, adding that her children could still attend school if they “fill out a specific form.”
Soon after the birth of her third child, Lux, Kailyn doubled down on her anti-vaxxing ways and confirmed as of Lux turning 18 months that he was not vaccinated.
Kailyn later took to her podcast, Coffee Convos, to clarify her choice:
“I definitely think this is a controversial topic, and I don’t want to lose listeners because of my opinion — but, I did vaccinate Isaac, because to me, I didn’t know any better, and I gave — I let them vaccinate him with whatever they basically said that he needed. And I feel like I was ignorant, and didn’t do research, and didn’t know any better.
With Lincoln, I knew a little bit more, and I started to research more, and that’s when I think the conversations of vaccines started to really be going on with me and my friends that became moms. And there were documentaries on Netflix, and all kinds of, just, news that I would try to look into. Lincoln did not get all of his vaccines. I definitely picked and chose which ones I felt like were necessary, and he did not get them all at once. So, he did one or two vaccines at a time. And again, those were the ones that I felt that he needed.
Lux is 18 months and he is not vaccinated. He hasn’t ever really been sick, and for me, I just think the more research that I do, and the more educated I’ve become, I just don’t vaccinate him. So, that’s my opinion, and I don’t judge Lindsie if she chooses to vaccinate, or anyone else who chooses to vaccinate — that’s your prerogative. You’re a parent, you know what’s best for your child, and I’m not here to judge.”
On the show, Kailyn even revealed she refuses to even let her ex-husband Javi Marroquin give their son Lincoln a flu vaccine.
She said, “[Javi] texted me asking me how I felt about Lincoln getting a flu shot because I guess he told me that Lauren is a big believer in vaccines. So, I said ‘Whatever you guys choose to do with your son is fine, but my son’s not getting the flu vaccine.’”
Kail stirred up this discussion among her fans yet again by sharing anti-vax rhetoric on her Instagram story.
“Aluminium safe limit set by FDA: 25MCG. Vaccine delivery of aluminum by 18 months: 4,925MCG. How is this safe?” Fans questioned this “fact,” but the controversy quickly subsided as it usually does.
But for a woman who is opposed to a cornerstone of modern medicine, Kailyn was also quick to call out her bestie, Leah Messer, for being involved in an alleged cult.
In texts revealed by Radar Online, the fan, Rachel asked Leah for details about the cult. But then Kailyn Lowry swooped into DM the fan to warn her not to join!
“The cult thrives on belittling people and making them feel less than if they don’t do those classes,” Kailyn said. “I don’t want to see young moms do it and spend their savings on this. It’s not cheap.”
When Rachel revealed to Leah that Kailyn had DMed her, Leah wrote, “I can call you in a little lol This has gotten out of hand,” sounding very annoyed.
Apparently, things between Leah and Kailyn got tense. Leah eventually responded to the whole thing, saying that it was just a fight and she and Kailyn have worked things out.
But since Kailyn is worried about the welfare of others, this anti-vax post has us worried about her own welfare!
Kailyn reposted an image from the Instagram account @thetruthaboutvaccines which featured a picture of Anne Frank, a young girl who was a victim of the Holocaust.
The text above the image read, “The law is not a moral compass." “The people who hid Anne Frank were breaking the law. The people who killed her were following it,” read the text superimposed on the picture.
“We speak out now or hide later,” read the caption on the original post.
A fan on reddit reshared the story, and fans were less than pleased with it.
“Yiiiiiikes that is an extremely cringe-worthy comparison! You can believe whatever you want. Fine,” one user wrote. “But if you’re that confident in what you believe in, you don’t use something like that to justify yourself. Chill out, Kail.”
“This is disgusting, an insult to the memory of millions of people who were murdered,” wrote another.
“I think it's offensive both to Holocaust victims AND people who died from diseases vaccines eradicated!” a third commented responded.
A major issue with this post altogether is that Anne Frank, although died in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, was not murdered in the camp. The young girl, along with her sister Margot, died of illness. Numerous diseases, including typhoid fever, were spreading rapidly throughout the camp and victims were not treated for the illnesses.
“Anne Frank, her sister Margot and hundreds of thousands of others died of Tyfus [sic] and Typhoid fever (among other things like starvation),” commented a reddit fan.
“Typhoid fever has a vaccine, typhus has one - but it's not commercially available,” another user followed.
The backlash to this (highly insensitive) post is unlikely to deter Kail from her beliefs, but it is important to know that a) vaccinations are not genocidal action and b) Anne Frank died of illness, which is exactly what vaccines have been invented to prevent. To compare the two is ridiculous.
