Briana DeJesus: Luis Is a Deadbeat Loser Who Does NOTHING For His Daughter! [Exclusive]

Folks, Briana DeJesus is not holding back.

Like millions of single moms all over the world, she’s had enough of deadbeat dads — and she’s not gonna take it anymore.

A preview for next week’s episode of Teen Mom 2 shows Bri sharing a story about some obnoxious behavior from Luis Hernandez, the father of her 2-year-old daughter Stella.

Luis rematerialized after a long period of absence from Stella’s life, but it seems he was more interested in reaching into Bri’s pocket than in fixing his relationship with his daughter.

We spoke with Briana about this disheartening incident, and as you may have guessed, she’s no great fan of Luis these days.

Take a look:

1. Shots Fired!

Briana DeJesus is fed up with deadbeat dads. And now, she’s calling out Luis Hernandez for his failure to be a father to his young daughter.

2. Loser Luis

Bd 20
Luis doesn’t make many appearances on Teen Mom 2 for the simple reason that he doesn’t make many appearances in his daughter’s life.

3. The Deadbeat Returns

Bd 19
And he doesn’t appear in the trailer for next week’s Teen Mom 2, either — but Stella’s dad still manages to make his presence felt in a big way.

4. An Unexpected Guest

Bd 18
The trouble began when Luis paid a surprise visit to Bri and Stella, an incident that Brian recalls in conversation with her sister, Brittany.

5. Hello and Goodbye

Bd 17
“I guess he came to kind of say ‘bye’ to her because he was going back into trucking,” Bri tells her sister.

6. Telling It Like It Is

Bd 15
Brittany is no fan of Luis and she makes that fact abundantly clear in her comments.

Briana DeJesus: I Still Hate John Rodriguez!

When Briana DeJesus first started dating John Rodriguez, fans were convinced she’d found “the one.”

Unlike her relationship with Javi Marroquin, Briana actually seemed fully invested in this romance.

And because this is Teen Mom 2 we’re talking about, the two of them started discussing marriage and family from day one — that’s just what happens on this show.

Alas, it wasn’t meant to be, and DeJesus and Rodriguez broke up earlier this year.

But due to the lag in TM2 production time, we’re only just now seeing footage that captures how their relationship ended.

And it seems that there was a period of time in which Briana had fully lost interest in John but simply couldn’t bring herself to cut him loose.

Take a look:

1. The End of an Era

Briana dejesus with johnny rodriguez
Briana DeJesus and John Rodriguez have called it quits. And thanks to recent episodes of Teen Mom 2, we’re learning all about the messy end of their relationship.

2. A Long-Distance Affair

Johnny rodriguez
Briana and Johnny faced major hurdles from the start, of course. He lives in New York City; she’s in Orlando, and her travel options are limited by being a single mom.

3. Making It Work

Briana dejesus and johnny rodriguez
But there was a time when Briana and Johnny were hell-bent on making it work. Unfortunately, they both seemed to lose interest at the same time, but neither of them wanted to be the one to pull the plug.

4. The Ultimate Sacrifice

Johnny rodriguez pic
At one point, Johnny was even willing to leave his beloved New York City behind and relocate to Orlando. But on last night’s Teen Mom 2, Briana sent a pretty strong passive-aggressive message that he should not do that.

5. Change of Heart

Briana dejesus on mtv
There was a time when Briana was desperately trying to convince John to move to Florida. Then, out of the blue, she just seemed to — lose interest.

6. Real Estate Ghosting

Briana dejesus with john rodriguez
She traveled to New York and met his family, and then — rather unexpectedly — she up and bought a house. This house had room for her mother and sister, but none for John.

Briana DeJesus: My Baby Daddy Has the Clap, So Watch Out, Y’All!

Hey, remember Luis Miguel?

Honestly, we understand if you don’t. Dude was only on Teen Mom 2 for about five seconds after he got Briana DeJesus pregnant.

Still, even though you may be more familiar with him as the MIA father of Briana’s second child, Stella, he’s not out of the picture.

Anyway, we’re talking about Luis on THG today because Briana just brought him up again. And what she had to say … well …

At least now it makes a little bit of sense that he’s staying away. From her, and hopefully any other young woman looking to date.

What do we mean? Buckle up.

1. The Choices We Make

Briana dejesus on mtv
Briana DeJesus is a single mother of two girls, as we know. She’s got her eight-year-old daughter, Nova, and then there’s Stella, who turned two a few months ago.

2. Oh Hey, Devoin

Nova and devoin antin
Nova’s father is Devoin Austin, and honestly, he’s not a super active dad. It was only this year that Briana allowed him to spend time with Nova outside of her home, and it went so badly that she didn’t allow him to see Nova for a while.

3. … And Luis

Luis miguel
Devoin certainly set a low bar, but his fellow baby daddy has yet to clear it. Dude is way more involved than Luis Miguel, Stella’s father.

4. Such Romance

Briana dejesus photograph
Briana became pregnant after a drunken hookup with Luis in a club. DeJesus wasn’t dating him or anything, she’s said that the only reason she got pregnant was because she got too drunk and made questionable decisions. (Hey, at least she’s honest.)

5. Making It Work?

Briana dejesus and lollipop
After she found out she was pregnant, she and Luis sort of attempted a relationship. It did not go well.

6. Wow

Briana does not hold back, and was open about the fact that she did consider having an abortion. Somewhat surprisingly, Luis did not approve. He wanted to raise their child together.

Teen Mom Stars’ Income Revealed: Who’s the Richest of ‘Em All?!

One of the cool things about being on Teen Mom is that you make a lot of money.

Like, a lot.

The moms and the original dads make hundreds of thousands of dollars per season, if you can even believe it, and they also get to travel for free if MTV is filming, which is pretty neat since we’ve been seeing a lot more vacations on the show recently.

But besides the show itself, cast members are pulling in crazy amounts of cash from all kinds of wild and crazy places.

“Like where?” you may be wondering.

Well, wonder no further …

1. Dang

Teen mom threesome
As we’ve said, the original cast members — the moms and the dads of their first children — all make the same amount, which is somewhere in the neighborhood of $350,000 to $400,000 a season. But what else does everyone do?

2. Amber Portwood

Let’s start with reviewing Amber’s side hustles — this will be the easiest to do, because she really doesn’t have any.

3. Not Much

Amber portwood on the insta
She shares articles on her Instagram page, which brings in some money, and she did appear on that one season of Marriage Boot Camp a couple of years ago, so that’s something.

4. A Quick Hobby

Amber portwood cant chill
For a little while there, she got into flipping houses with Matt Baier, but she hasn’t done that since he’s been gone.

5. Forever Haute

Amber portwood deals with matt baier
She did have that sketchy clothing company for a little while, Forever Haute, but she hasn’t talked about it in a very long time, and the brand’s Facebook page hasn’t been updated for a year and a half, so it’s probably safe to say that that’s done.

6. Well …

Amber portwood mugshot 2019
Right now, she’s facing years in prison after assaulting Andrew Glennon, so she’s probably not thinking so much about her next business venture, you know?

Briana DeJesus: Another Baby on the Way?!

A lot’s going on in the life of Briana DeJesus these days.

In fact, the past week alone has seen the Teen Mom 2 star score tabloid headlines relating to three separate stories.

First, Briana broke up witn John Rodriguez — a crusing blow, given her earlier confidence that he was “the one.”

Shortly thereafter, DeJesus’ feud with Kailyn Lowry reignited thanks to comments the latter made on her podcast.

Now, it looks as though Bri may have a third baby on the way.

Was it planned this way? Is the kid John’s?

Jump into the gallery below to be brought up to date on everything we know about the situation:

1. Baby For Bri?

Briana dejesus on mtv
Is Briana DeJesus expecting a third child? The Teen Mom 2 star discussed the possibility in a recent interview.

2. Dropping Hints

Briana dejesus photograph
Bri and her co-stars are often subject to rumors that they’re secretly pregnant. But unlike the other Moms, Bri seems to welcome the speculation.

3. Subtle Confirmation?

“Lately, I’ve been thinking about baby No. 3 … idk why,” Briana tweeted this week.

4. Good Point

“Then I’ll have 3 different baby daddies? Lol hopefully the 3rd isn’t a f–k up tho,” she added.

5. An Unexpected Response

Briana dejesus and lollipop
Briana received words of encouragement and congratulations, of course, but she also received less emotional replies from fans encouraging her to exercise caution.

6. She’s Got a Point

“I would truly think about it first. Three baby daddies, more drama,” wrote one fan.

Briana DeJesus to Kailyn Lowry: Why Are You So Afraid of Me?! [Exclusive]

Of the many Teen Mom feuds we’ve seen over the years, perhaps none has been as intense (or as entertaining) as the beef between Briana DeJesus and Kailyn Lowry.

For one thing, this was no mere social media spat.

No, the Kail vs. Briana rivalry frequently spilled off the screen and into real life.

It began to boil over when Briana briefly dated Kail’s ex-husband, Javi Marroquin.

And it really came to a head with DeJesus and Lowry’s backstage confrontation at one of the most tense reunion shows in franchise history.

It seems impossible that Kail and Bri will ever be friends, but they seemed to reach a sort of uneasy piece over the past year.

This week, however, Lowry threw some shade at DeJesus on her podcast, and now, Bri’s firing back in an exclusive inverview with The Hollywood Gossip.

We think it’s safe to say she didn’t hold anything back this time.

Take a look:

1. Back At It

Briana and kail split pics
For a while there, it looked as though Kail and Bri had decided to give each other some distance. But then Lowry decided to address their longstanding feud on the most recent episode of her Coffee Convos podcast.

2. Subtle Tea?

Kail lowry fashion
“They have asked me if I will sit on the couch with everybody and I did say no,” she explained. “It doesn’t have anything to do with Briana or the drama, or Jenelle, or any of that. It’s more so for personal reasons. I really just don’t want to go back to that space.”

3. Shots Fired?

Kailyn lowry of teen mom 2
Kail didn’t exactly come out swinging, but as many fans on social media have pointed out, it’s pretty clear her comments are directed primarily at Briana.

4. Expired Beef

Jenelle evans and kailyn lowry photo
Yes, she mentioned Jenelle too, but since Evans was fired from the show way back in April, it seems unlikely that Lowry would ever be pressured to share a reunion couch with her.

5. Professional Mistrust

Kail on teen mom 2
“I feel like there was drama in the past and, based on that, I don’t trust the producers and I don’t trust some of the cast members,” Kail continued.

6. Cast Shade?

From there, Kail went on to describe her relationships with just about every one of her current castmates — skipping over Briana of course.

Kailyn Lowry to Briana DeJesus: Sorry, Girl, I Still Hate You!

If you’ve been a longtime Teen Mom fan, then you’re probably very familiar with the issues between Kailyn Lowry and Briana DeJesus.

And you probably remember just how bad things got between them.

At this point, all of their drama is getting kind of old — it’s been about two years since it all began.

But, as Kailyn revealed in the latest episode of her podcast, there’s still plenty of bad blood between these two ladies …

1. Memories

Kailyn at school
It doesn’t feel like it’s been two years since the feud between Kailyn and Briana began, does it?

2. Then Again …

Briana on teen mom
But there’s just SO much drama in the Teen Mom universe, and we see a lot of it play out in real life before we see it on the show, and sometimes we see things on the show that we really didn’t know about when it was actually happening … so time just moves different for these people, OK?

3. Looking Back

Javi and briana
Anyway, it was about two years ago that Briana and her family went on a Disney World vacation with Javi Marroquin and little Lincoln, the son he shares with Kailyn. He was kind of secretive about the whole thing, and Kailyn really sincerely did not appreciate it.

4. Mad at Everyone

Kailyn vs javi
After that, Kail officially started hating Briana, and her relationship with Javi turned sour, too. They got into a pretty heated argument while filming a Teen Mom 2 reunion special because Kailyn thought she’d been disrespected, it was this whole thing — you remember.

5. Weird

Briana and javi make it official
Their feud has actually lasted way, way longer than Javi and Briana’s actual relationship did — they only dated for a few months, but the pettiness has lived on.

6. Ridiculous

Javi on teen mom 2
It kind of makes sense when you think about the fact that there was a time when Javi was juggling both ladies at the same time, as well as a relationship with current fiancee Lauren Comeau

Briana DeJesus: I Don’t Want to Tell My Kids About My New Boyfriend!

It’s hard being a single mom.

It’s even harder when millions are invited to comment on your every parenting decision thanks to your role on a popular reality show.

Given her unique set of circumstances, it stands to reason that Briana DeJesus would work hard to give her two daughters as normal an upbringing as possible.

And recently, that meant sheltering them from the fact that she was in a new relationship.

So, did Bri make the right call by keeping 8-year-old Nova in the dark about her romance with John Rodriguez?

No matter your initial reaction to that question, you may feel differently after checking out this preview from Tuesday night’s episode of Teen Mom 2:

1. No Easy Answer

Briana dejesus with johnny rodriguez
In a preview clip from Tuesday night’s episode of Teen Mom 2, Briana DeJesus grapples with a difficult decision many a single parent can relate to: Should she tell her 8-year-old daughter, Nova, about her relationship with John Rodriguez?

2. Context

Briana dejesus and johnny rodriguez
Those who follow their celebrity gossip know that Briana and John called it quits back in August, but throughout filming for the show’s current season, they appeared to be on the verge of moving in together, so watching this play out behind the scenes is no less intriguing.

3. Tough Situation

Briana dejesus on mtv
Of course, like all good moms, Briana’s children – she had Nova, 8, with Devoin Austin, and Stella, 2, with Luis Hernandez – are her top priority, and it’s clear that when she contemplated taking the next step with John, her primary concern was how the move would affect her two daughters.

4. Johnny on the Spot

Johnny rodriguez pic
So while John seemed like a good guy who was genuinely concerned for the happiness of Bri’s kids, it makes sense that DeJesus was cautious not only about living with him, but also about explaining to her daughters that she and Rodriguez were officially dating.

5. Knowing What’s at Stake

Briana dejesus and nova
Bri’s younger daughter Stella is just two years old, as we said earlier, and is probably unconcerned with developments in her mother’s love life. But for eight-year-old Nova, the stakes are a lot higher. She’s old enough to understand the implications of Bri entering a new romantic relationship.

6. Hashing It Out

Briana dejesus to johnny rodriguez nova doesnt know about you ye
In this preview clip for tonight’s episode of Teen Mom 2, Briana reveals that she has not yet told her daughters about her relationship with John … and proceeds to explain why this is so complicated.

Teen Mom: The Most Insane Feuds of All Time, RANKED!

From on-camera brawls to social media feuds and legal threats, the cast of Teen Mom and Teen Mom 2 sure know how to go hard.

Engagements. Breakups. Marriages. Babies. 

Moments that made you cringe ’cause they were so painful, or smile ear-to-ear. Scenes that were fights, or made you fight back tears.

The franchise really does have it all, and as such, it’s become one of the most entertaining in the history of the reality TV genre.

Below, we look back at some of the MTV gang’s most explosive feuds, and however you might rank them, this much is undeniable:

There were no shortage of them.

NOTE: We’ve saved the craziest for last, so we suggest that you a deep breath, sit back, grab a hat and hold the f–k onto it …

35. Briana DeJesus vs. Leah Messer (and Others)

Briana dejesus vs leah messer and others
When Briana DeJesus joined the Teen Mom 2 cast in 2017, she was not welcomed with open arms. In fact, she quickly became persona non grata at her first get-together with the cast – with one exception. Jenelle Evans, Briana said, “is the only one who was acting like her s–t ain’t stink. Plus she was the only one who wasn’t acting fake and choosing sides.” Leah Messer’s response was to “pay no attention to those who try to bring you down … they’re just envious of where you are and how well you’re doing.” As we’ll get to in a bit, relations haven’t exactly gotten more amicable in the months since.

34. Maci Bookout vs. Taylor McKinney

Maci bookout taylor mckinney selfie
Maci Bookout and Taylor McKinney’s relationship has produced three kids, and they seem very happily married … most of the time. Like, 85 percent of the time. Bookout alarmed fans with this confession earlier in the year that revealed some trouble in paradise: “Eighty-five percent of the time we’re good to go … Fifteen percent is hell. All of our stress and emotions, we take out on each other. When the cameras leave, we’ll drink and freak out. It’s always literally the smallest things. It’s such small stuff but it blows up. It’s not going to go away.” Yikes … but at least they are self-aware and working on things?

33. Matt Baier vs. Amber Portwood … The Eruption

Matt vs amber
Things neared a boiling point between Amber Portwood and Matt Baier after he vowed that would never marry her … because she wouldn’t marry him on the spot in Las Vegas, obviously. “I will not marry her,” he said. “I will not marry her now, ever! I’m not gonna let her [brother] dictate my life. That f—king f—got. She wants to marry her brother. That’s who she wants to marry. F—k her. She just humiliated me on TV. I’m done!” Matt, who was livid at Amber’s reasoning for not eloping in Vegas – her brother Shawn not being present – went on to tell a producer, “I don’t care who you have to give oral pleasure to, keep the Amber and Matt wedding thing off [the air]. She just embarrassed me in front of 12 million people.” We’re pretty sure you did that to yourself, Matt …

32. Jeremy Calvert vs. Brooke Wehr

Jeremy calvert with brooke wehr
Brooke Wehr was never a Teen Mom 2 cast member, but due to her mercurial relationship with Jeremy Calvert, her impact was felt just the same. Earlier this year, the couple’s engagement ended after Brooke accused Jeremy of cheating on her with multiple women, one being a Teen Mom 2 producer, another being her best friend, and a third possibly being his ex-wife Leah Messer. Oh yes. Brooke even shared a screen shot of a text message conversation between Jeremy and the best friend as proof, while Calvert responded in a drunken stupor that yes, maybe he did sleep with Brooke’s best friend, but … only because Wehr slept with some other guy first. Or, as he put it, Brooke was “f-cking his brains out, every day,” and he was single, so “my dick was happy to do whatever the f-ck it wanted to do, and it did.” Shocking that these two didn’t work out … but neither party was completely off base with their allegations. Just saying. Jeremy and Leah did hook up.

31. Jenelle Evans vs. David Eason

Jenelle evans david eason fight on teen mom 2
From the get-go, it’s been Jenelle Evans and husband David Eason against the world, but at times, they’ve been at each other’s throats as well. Arguments between the two were commonplace throughout recent seasons of Teen Mom 2, and one particularly heated argument resulted in them calling off their wedding … the night before the wedding. (They ultimately got married as planned.) Bad tempers are one thing, but the most troubling aspect is that David has been accused of mistreating/abusing Jenelle’s son Kaiser because he reminds him of Kaiser’s dad, Nathan Griffith. He also doesn’t get along with her mom, at all, further driving a wedge between the Evans women.

30. Briana DeJesus vs. Luis Miguel

Briana and luis on tm2
About as one-sided as a feud can get, but a feud just the same: Briana DeJesus got pregnant for the second time during a brief relationship with this guy, then promptly pulled the plug after discovering he was unfaithful. Luis’ public dressing down marked Briana’s return to the Teen Mom fold (she joined Teen Mom 2 for the first time this season following stints on Teen Mom 3 and 16 & Pregnant) and cemented her firebrand reputation. Probably the only positive thing, if you can call it that, is that she’s moved on to other feuds.
