Everyone has a past, including Kailyn Lowry. Now, these shocking photos are revealing her former "pot head" days, and they show an entirely different side of her!
Everyone has a past, and everyone has regrets. But when you’re a Teen Mom star, it’s an entirely different game. The girls have had their entire lives publicized from before they even graduated high school, so it’s hard to deny any of the mistakes they’ve made over the years.

Since their lives have been on display basically forever, you’d think that the Teen Mom cast members would have nothing left to hide. Everything in their past has already come to the surface in one way or another, right? Well, as it turns out, Kailyn Lowry has been better at keeping things secret than we may have thought. Luckily, now she’s spilling all of the details.
And what better way for her to dive into her past than reliving her Myspace days?
“I don’t know if I still have a Myspace account, cause I think I used a fake e-mail,” Kailyn spilled on the most recent episode of her podcast, Coffee Convos. “I would be mortified if someone found me on [Myspace.]”
As she records the show, she and her co-host Lindsey Chrisley search for her old Myspace account. She asks, “Do people still use this?! ...There’s a bunch of me! I literally just found three [fake] accounts in a row!”
But later in the show, she gives an update. “I found my actual Myspace! And the pictures on here… first of all, I wish I was as fat as I thought I was then! Even after Isaac, I was so small, and I just don’t understand.”
She goes down memory lane, spilling, “I have a picture with a magazine of 16 and Pregnant when we were first on it, and two of the girls from 16 and Pregnant… I think there’s a picture of me holding baby Jace, Jenelle’s son, at the first reunion.”
She adds, “There’s pictures of my pot smoking days before I had kids. I’m embarrassed. I don’t know how to take them off!” She explains, “The e-mail was fake.”
Even though Kailyn seems to be embarrassed of her “pot-smoking days,” it’s clear that she isn’t too upset about the photos staying public.
The pictures truly reveal a different time in Kailyn’s life. In one shot, Kailyn poses with her first baby daddy, Jo Rivera’s brother. Junior played a large role in helping Kailyn balance the beginnings of her college career with having a child, but it’s the caption of the photo that’s even more telling. Kailyn wrote, “Brother-in-law to be. <3” It’s clear that during this time, she was still convinced that she was going to marry her baby daddy Jo! Of course we all know that things couldn’t have turned out any more differently.
In another shot, Kailyn cradles her newborn son Isaac. It’s amazing to see how far she’s come from her 16 and Pregnant days, especially considering that she’s now raised three infants! It’s hard to believe that these photos were taken only about nine years ago, and that Kailyn has changed so much since then. She later shared a shot of Isaac in his baby carrier, writing “10 weeks!” He was such an adorable baby!
But even though some of the pictures showed a happy and even glamorous side of Kailyn’s life, some of them reveal the “pothead” past that she’s been talking about.
“That b*tch Mary Jane.<3” Kailyn captioned this shot of her, obviously hinting at her weed-smoking days. In the shot, she shows off a lean figure and long legs along with dark, brunette hair. It’s been ages since we’ve seen that! It’s also hard to imagine that Kailyn ever felt fat during this time, but we all know how difficult it is to be a self-conscious teenager, baby or no baby. She adds that this photo was taken at the “End of Summer ‘08.” Keep reading to more of the crazy and adorable pictures that Kailyn posted to her MySpace!
It’s not really a wonder that Kailyn “thought she was fat” in these pictures. After all, she’s since opened up in her memoir about how she battled an eating disorder when she was young.
“For a long time I had very low self esteem,” Kailyn penned in her memoir Hustle and Heart. “For a variety of reasons, I struggled to believe in the possibility that I might actually be worth the love of others… I was constantly nitpicking everything about myself.”
“For years I struggled with eating disorders, and I was extremely self-conscious about my weight,” she revealed. “As anyone who’s been in this situation knows, this is rarely something you ever completely get over. It’s nice to think that the ultimate goal would be to feel totally at peace with my body, whatever it looks like.. But in reality, that’s something that has to be maintained continuously.”
Luckily, Kailyn soon turned to healthier weight loss techniques. “I took up Crossfit with the hope of putting an end to my constant weight fluctuations and the turmoil that came with them,” she said. “It was a great decision.” But she added, “Still, after fourteen months, I wasn’t getting the specific results I was hoping for. I’d committed so thoroughly to working out and maintaining a healthy diet, but it was clear there was only so much I could do to change the shape of my body.”
That’s when Kailyn turned to surgery to get the look she wanted, even if it was a controversial decision.
“So, I made a choice,” Kailyn revealed. “A choice that isn’t right for everyone, but was right for me. After much thought and research, I decided to get plastic surgery.”
She revealed that it was controversial even then. “When the news about my plastic surgery broke, social media erupted with people from all over the world spouting off their opinions about my decision. As you can imagine, most people only had negative things to say.” But Kailyn didn’t let it get to her.
“As you can imagine, I didn’t really care. The choice to undergo plastic surgery was mine and mine alone. Haters to the left!” She added, “Guess what? I was doing me... I was just doing me, and if your mission is to love yourself, I would encourage you to do you.”
She added, “I’m human. I care how I look. I knew that being satisfied with my outer appearance would give me the confidence I needed to face he world head on.” But she also spoke to inner beauty, penning, “Don’t get it twisted, though. Loving yourself has very little to do with outer beauty at all. It’s more about recognizing value in yourself and giving yourself as much credit as you give to the people you care about… Accepting who you are as a person, including your flaws, is a necessary component when it comes to gaining the super power that is self love… It’s important to remember that the relationship you have with yourself comes first, and no one should make you feel bad about that.”
Although Kailyn has put her disordered ways behind her, she’s now opening up about the next plastic surgery she’d like to have.
“My fingers are crossed that I’m going to get this breast reduction surgery next month,” Kailyn spilled on an earlier episode of Coffee Convos.“They’re massive! It weighs me down. I have already bad posture, and then my boobs add to it, so I’m like, ‘Please let me get cleared for this.”
“When your chest is really really big, it just makes you look so much bigger… because your shirts stick out,” her co-host Lindsie Chrisley chimed in.
“When the trainer came here the other day, he took all my measurements to do the weight loss stuff…. And I wear a 36DDD.” She reveals, “When he took my measurements, it was 44 inches! So I don’t think I’m even wearing the right size bra.”
She added, “I’m super nervous and hopeful that I can get this surgery, but we’ll see. I’ll keep you guys posted.”
Luckily for Kailyn, fans are more than supportive of her idea. “I can imagine the back pain and aggravation huge breasts would cause. It’ll make her feel better, so nothing negative to say on this from me. I think it can increase activity levels as well. Running and exercise would be a little easier,” wrote user KellyBees on reddit. “Everyone I know who has gotten it has LOVED it and instantly felt better with less pressure on their back and shoulders,” wrote StasRutt.
“She’s gonna look loads better. She has a great body for being a bigger girl, but the big boobs make her look super top heavy, making her look bigger than she actually is,” wrote htxcountrymuffin. User uknowhowchoicesbe wrote, “Her back will thank her.”
It seems that Kailyn has a lot on her mind right now, but that might be for the best. She could be grateful for any opportunity to be distracted from her ex, Javi Marroquin, who has recently announced his girlfriend is pregnant with his child!
Even though they only got back together a few months ago, they clearly didn’t waste any time. Javi has just confirmed to Radar that his girlfriend Lauren is pregnant (yes, with his child).
“Blessings on top of blessings,” Javi wrote on a picture of him cradling Lauren’s baby bump on his private Facebook page. Lauren wrote, “Sometimes life’s biggest blessings come in the smallest packages. Baby Marroquin coming soon!”
He took to Instagram to write: "Been kinda quiet lately for many reasons. I was sad I couldn’t share the good news because I was afraid of what people would say. The amount of love I’ve received is so overwhelming and so appreciated. I realized No negative comment will take this moment away from us."
He went on, "A baby is a blessing and I am ecstatic for the future. Lincoln is happy, I’m happy, and Lauren is happy. Gonna go on a little hiatus from social media to take all this in and enjoy it with my family and loved ones. For those sending love, thank you! We appreciate it. And to you @lauren3elizabeth thank you for blessing me with another child. We are gonna be amazing parents together."
4-year-old Lincoln was also in the announcement. He held four sonograms and wore a shirt that read “Super Big Bro.”
As for Kailyn, her response was short: “I knew,” she told Radar. “I wish them the best.”
Maybe the reason Kailyn can shake off this announcement so easily is that she now seems to be back together with her third baby daddyChris Lopez!
Remember Kailyn’s friend Bone? It’s pretty hard to forget her odd name, but she also made quite a splash when she threatened to fight Briana at the Teen Mom 2 reunion. There’s nothing more ride or die than that, right? Well, as it turns out, Bone recently hopped off the Kailyn train, and even unfollowed Kail on Twitter. When fans began to wonder why their relationship went downhill, Bone revealed why — because Kailyn got back with Chris!
“Maybe [they aren’t friends anymore because Kailyn] and Chris are bumping hideous uglies again, and Bone was the one by her side thru it all. AN honest friend to [Kailyn, and Kailyn] chose that [piece of sh*t] instead of real friendship. Typical Kailyn,” wrote a fan on Twitter. Bone responded confirming all of the accusations, writing, “It’s like you were there.”
Bone later made it even more obvious this was the case. She retweeted a tweet that reads “Ur a fake a** friend if u don’t help ur girls get over a guy, even if it’s for the 32nd time.” Bone added, “Your friend is fake as f*ck if they don’t listen to your advice for the 32nd time.”
Fans were shocked when Bone confirmed the relationship. “Not a Bone fan but how sh*tty of Kail if true. She disposes everyone like trash when shes done using them,” wrote AmbersInfectdPiercng on reddit. “I just can’t get over kails [bullsh*t]. She tells the world how horrible Chris is but still f*cks him. She tells everyone how pathetic Javi is but still f*cks him. She is just messy af,” wrote chrissyp55.
“Jesus. Kail has no concept of how to maintain healthy, kind term relationships, especially friendships,” wrote ReginaldDwight. “She treats people around her like shit and it's going to bite her in the a**. Also, she needs to move on from Chris. He's sh*tty for leading her on but her hyper focus on somehow convincing him to live her isn't going to end well.”
But some came to Kailyn’s defense. “But honestly, I understand why Kail is doing this. I feel like so many of us, including myself, have been in this situation, and I can only imagine having a kid with the guy makes it 10x harder,” wrote TaylorCuris.
But Bone obviously can’t forgive Kailyn right now. She’s recently liked several tweets from fans defending her, making it clear that she hasn’t moved on. “Oh I see, [Bone] was basically a mom to both kail and the kids,” tweeted one fan. “That’s messed up ripping yet another loved one from those kids.” Another wrote, “Being a shoulder, an ear, A friend. Lux 1st Xmas was with Bones fam NOT CHRIS he wanted NOTHING to do with [Kailyn], but he put his hands on her alright. Would you want your friend with a POS like that ? Well kail wants him after all… bye girl bye.”
Kailyn herself has never spoken out about any abuse rumors, but she has made it clear that she was less than impressed with Chris’s presence in her life. After Chris recently confessed his love for her, Kailyn blew it off.
“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.”
Do you think she believes in love again since she and Chris are back together?
