When it comes to loving your child, some parents will go above and beyond to show that they care. But is getting the name of their child tattooed across their face going a little too far?
Apparently, this Teen Mom star doesn’t think so. Check out their new ink!
Many of the Teen Mom cast members will do anything to show how much they love their children. Even though it’s true that having a child at their young ages set their life on a trajectory much different than the one they had planned for, their maternal love for their children is clear regardless.
But that doesn’t mean that every expression of love is a good one. And getting your children’s names tattooed across your face might be going a bit too far.
This Teen Mom star might be pulling a bit of inspiration from an A-list celebrity. You may have heard of her: her name is Amber Rose!
Amber has yet to post an actual photo of her new ink on Instagram, however, she showed it off in the sneaker video. The tattoos on her forehead are the names of her two sons, Bash (short for Sebastian) and Slash. Amber shares Sebastian with her ex-husband, Wiz Khalifa, and she shares Slash with her present beau, AE.
Wendy Williams made it known that she isn’t a fan of Amber’s new ink. “Amber you know I love you girl, but, why would you ruin your forehead?” she said on a recent episode of The Wendy Williams Show.
See Amber’s forehead in the video, next!
Wendy continued, "I just don’t understand why she would do that,” before concluding, "Like to me, she’s a little bit too old to be rock and rolling with tattoos on her face. Amber, you know I love you, and that’s it. That’s it."
And, this Teen Mom star won’t even be the only cast member with a face tattoo! Young and Pregnant star Ashley Jones’ baby daddy Bar also has ink across his forehead!
Bar recently showed off his face tats in a cameo on Ashley's Instagram. Even though she left this photo captionless, fans quickly sounded off with their reactions.
"They are IMO the worst tattoos in the franchise," wrote reddit user humpagoat. User notthebaddest_2 wrote, "Yes, they're real. I think it's so weird when people don't have full sleeves, neck tattoos, their chest covered, etc but have their face tattooed. Some face tattoos look nice, but these do not and they're really out of place on a person who isn't mostly covered in ink."
Now, fans have a new Teen Mom face tattoo to sound off about.
Fans noticed that when Kailyn Lowry’s baby daddy Chris Lopez took to Instagram recently, he had new ink to show off!
It appears that he has a tattoo of Lux’s name right above his eyebrow.
And apparently, Kail herself isn’t too happy about it either.
Keep reading to see the tat!
“Imagine not doing sh*t for your child & getting their name tattooed on your face in 2020,” Kailyn around the same time Chris debuted his new ink.
Hmm… very subtle, Kailyn. We can barely figure out who you’re subtweeting.
Fans were quick to sound off on reddit about this update.
“Well you’re the idiot who went and got pregnant by him a second time so he can’t be that bad 🤷🏻♀️,” wrote user AndyJCohen. User wiredmomm wrote, “Kail knew who tf he was before she got pregnant again so she just looks like a dumba** making any kind of comment. Like you CHOSE this deadbeat KNOWING HE AINT SH*T.”
User Erotic_FriendFiction chimed in, “When you try to throw someone under the bus and end up dragging yourself behind it instead.
They should change the title of the show to Stupid and Pregnant-er.”
What do you think about Chris’s ink?
Baby Bonus: How Much Kailyn Lowry Has Made Off Her Fourth Baby
With Teen Mom being on air for as long as it has, it should be no surprise that numerous fan theories have evolved over the years. Many times, these theories are grasping at straws, or can’t be confirmed by any evidence by the cast members or the show itself... but it looks like one of the most extreme and shocking theories may have some basis in the real world.
Many members of the Teen Mom fan community have often discussed the possibility of a “baby bonus,” meaning that MTV executives bribed cast members with an under-the-table payment for every time they got pregnant. Many fans believed that this is the reason that so many of the girls have had multiple pregnancies over the years.
But there’s more money that comes from Teen Mom pregnancies than just from MTV. And now that Kailyn Lowry has confirmed her fourth pregnancy, all of this is coming back to the spotlight.
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!
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."
Now, fans and experts are trying to break down exactly how much money Kailyn made from this post!
Although it’s safe to assume that Kailyn may have made a little more than an average joe, Influencer Marketing Hub’s Instagram Money Calculator estimates that Kailyn only made $7,776-$13,100 from her announcement.
However, experts at Vox estimates that she may have made quite a bit more. "Influencers with up to 1 million followers can get $10,000 [per post], depending on the platform, and 1 million followers and up, you’re getting into territory where they can charge $100,000,” the outlet reports. “Some can even get $250,000 for a post! Especially if the content is on Youtube and the influencer is in the gaming industry."
It’s pretty unlikely that Kailyn got anywhere near $100,000, but it’s safe to say she made a good chunk of change. Meanwhile, fans discussed the ethics of paid pregnancy tests on reddit.
“I’m surprised Kail took such a low bid tbh; really says where her financial situation is at that she announced for $10k on Instagram and not a higher price through some tabloid source,” wrote retroverted_uterus.
User Lalablacksheep646 wrote, “I doubt this is how she announced it to her close friends or whatever so I don’t see what the big deal is. People act like this is how her boys found out or something.”
