Javi has been jumping from girl to girl so fast that it is hard to keep up. As Teen Mom 2 is airing his dramatic break-up from Briana, Javi is quickly moving on in real life. Did he just announce a new engagement?
Javi Marroquin has earned the unofficial distinction of MTV’s “Teen Dad.” After marrying and divorcing his first baby mama, Kailyn Lowry, Javi then turned to her Teen Mom 2 co-star Briana DeJesus for one of the show’s most shocking hook-ups ever!
Their drama-fueled romance did not last long, but Javi moves quick! In just a few months, he showed off his new girlfriend…and then her baby bump!
Javi began dating Lauren Comeau after they met at a wedding. The couple began as a long distance relationship with Javi in Delaware and Lauren in Charleston, South Carolina. “We met at one of our best friend’s weddings,” Javi told Radar Online. “She was the maid of honor.”
He revealed that their relationship was “fairly new” but that he “[didn’t] feel that way." Javi elaborated, "This one feels right. We decided we’d give it a try officially at the wedding this past weekend.” To be clear, Lauren was the fourth girl he dated in the year after he split from Kailyn.
Unfortunately, their relationship didn’t last very long. The stress of having a public relationship was too much for Lauren, and the couple split in September of 2017.
“I love Lauren, but unfortunately it didn’t work out,” Javi informed Radar after the break-up. “I’m learning not everyone wants the attention. Dating someone on a TV show is tough. I think Lauren had a hard time adjusting to that and I had a hard time understanding that.”
“It was a lot for her and we couldn’t fix it,” he explained. “I learned for my next relationship that I have to put myself in the other person’s shoes.”
But he made it clear that he wasn’t totally over Lauren. “I never believed in love at first sight, but when I saw Lauren I definitely did,” he said. “I’m hoping Lauren and I can figure this out because she made me the happiest I’ve ever been.”
Clearly, they managed to figure it out. But before that, Javi was not alone.
In only a few months, his Twitter flirtations with Briana blossomed into a romance. Then, he and Briana got matching tattoos!
In a turn of events that surprised no one, the couple split up. Their break-up quickly turned sour and Briana went off on Javi and Kailyn in a Twitter rant. The drama carried on to the Teen Mom 2 reunion, where Briana and Kailyn got into a brawl!
Then, shortly after breaking up with Briana, Javi got back together with Lauren. He shared a picture of them embracing and wrote, “Sometimes, two people need to fall apart to realize how much they need to fall back together.” The couple quickly dropped a massive bombshell.
Only two months after publicly getting back together, Javi confirmed that Lauren is pregnant!
“Blessings on top of blessings,” Javi wrote on a picture of him cradling Lauren’s bump on his private Facebook.
Lauren wrote, “Sometimes life’s biggest blessings come in the smallest packages. Baby Marroquin coming soon!”
Javi later shared in a public Instagram post featuring Lincoln and the new baby's sonogram:
"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. A baby is a blessing and I am ecstatic for the future. Lincoln is happy, I’m happy, and Lauren is happy…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."
Javi gushed to Radar, “She’s really good to Lincoln. He loves her and he asks about her all the time.”
It’s lucky for Javi and Lauren that she gets along with his son because this week, they announced that they are expecting a baby boy! Javi told Radar, “We are excited. I had a feeling it was going to be a boy. I’m super excited for a boy. They’re super easy!”
Their gender reveal was soccer themed. Javi explained, “Soccer is my passion and we wanted a way for Lincoln to be involved. He kicked the ball. He’s really happy it’s a boy.”
The gender reveal has sparked the latest discussion about Javi’s relationship timeline. He broke up from Briana sometime in mid-January, but he still visited her in Miami at the end of that month when her plastic surgery took place.
On last night’s episode of Teen Mom 2, Briana opens up to her producer Alexis about Javi, sharing that he was not invited to come to Miami. However, he shows up at the plastic surgeon’s office regardless of Briana’s wishes. While trying to explain to Briana that he cares deeply about their relationship, he tells her, “I have someone saying they will move to Dover for us to give it another shot.” Javi is almost certainly referring to his most recent ex at the time...Lauren!
Javi earnestly tells Briana, “If I wanted to settle, I can. No one has made me feel the way you make me feel. I haven’t had a connection with someone the way me and you had it.” Clearly, Briana was not swayed by his romantic gesture. Javi did not stay heartbroken over her for long.
Kailyn has admitted that she and Javi hooked up after his early 2018 break-up from Briana! Evidently, he was a busy man!
When Lauren and Javi announced their pregnancy at the end of May, fans suspected that Lauren was farther along than the couple made it seem. After they announced that they are expecting a boy, suspicions were re-ignited.
Reddit user realitycheck14 guessed, “She’s definitely 5-6 months along. I’m on my second and that far along and she’s bigger than I am. I would say he was sleeping with them all in January.” On another reddit thread, users pointed out that Lauren blurred the age of the fetus on her sonogram posts on Instagram. What is she hiding?
Now that Lauren is back in the complex web of Javi’s love life, fans are paying even more attention to her and her social media accounts.
Eagle-eyed fans seemed to spot a huge clue about the future parents on Lauren’s Instagram account.
“Welp…” Lauren wrote on a shot of her TV stand. “The TVs are gone on day 1 of selling furniture. No more excuses for not being productive I guess..” But it wasn’t Lauren’s words that caught fans’ eyes.
Many noticed that among her pictures and mementos, Lauren has two letters on her stand: L and M. Could it possibly stand for Lauren Marroquin?!
A marriage for the expecting couple would only make sense, as they have recently moved in together! Lauren recently posted an Instagram of the two kissing with the caption, “Final drive back home to you”
Javi confirmed to Radar: “She’s officially moved into my house. We got a new place and we’ll be moving there in two weeks.”
He added, “It’s nice to have her here. We’ve been traveling non-stop so it’s nice that she doesn’t have to travel.” According to Javi, Lincoln is “happy she’s here permanently.”
However, according to Javi, their wedding is not on the calendar yet. He told Radar, “Definitely in the future I will propose. The focus is on the baby first.”
When Javi is ready to take the next step, he has a ring ready! Recent Teen Mom 2 episodes revealed that Javi proposed to Briana during their whirlwind romance! Even though she was unwilling to move to Dover for Javi, Lauren was obviously ready to take that step.
The move came as a surprise to fans. Zgal13 wrote, “I will admit I creeped on her Instagram. She seems like very much a family girl. I can’t see her leaving that to move to the Kail zone of side eye rolls and constant pursing of faux lips.”
Bluebonnettex suggested that Javi is motivated by logistics and not love, posting,
"Lets just be honest. He’s in the military, they’re probably gonna end up married and in Dover because everyone romanticizes being a MILSO. In order for him to get extra housing/funds for this specific baby, he has to have 51% custody, meaning the baby has to be with him majority of the month. He won’t get the extra money to support the baby without it. And Bri said what Javi wants is a wife and family. Even if Lauren doesn’t wanna marry him, he’ll wear her down. I mean, apparently he used his job and the possibility of future deployments to try and get Bri to marry him, and it pi**ed Roxanne the hell off. I could see him using deployment as a reason to get married, if using the baby and BAH [basic housing allowance] doesn’t work."
Justoneofmattskids expressed concerned for everyone involved:
"It’s just an insane web these people weave. Jo is stuck in Delaware because he has a kid with Kail, who’s stuck in Delaware because she has kids with Chris and Javi... Sooo is Lauren gonna be stuck in Delaware now, too? Sooner or later, something here has to give, right? Won’t Javi ever be sent to another base? Then Lauren could chase him down, but Kail will have to choose between Javi and Chris, and then what about Jo and Vee?"
