Last month, Teen Mom OG star Catelynn Lowell warned that fans will be seeing less of Carly in the near future.
But what about Nova and Vaeda?
This week, her husband Tyler Baltierra revealed exactly when he and Catelynn will stop letting their…
Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra have been together for most of their lives, even before they brought Carly into the world.
But fans have been buzzing with rumors recently.
Is Tyler cheating on Catelynn … and using his own fans to do it?
Catelynn is confident that the rumors are bogus.
And when she explains why she’s so sure, you can see where she’s coming from.
If you’re a longtime Teen Mom OG viewer, then you’re probably familiar with Tyler Baltierra’s father, Butch, and his lifelong struggle with substance abuse and addiction.
When Butch checked into rehab and got sober back in 2018, family, friends, an…
We’ve all seen the shocking moment of Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra’s surprise Vow Renewal. Now, that is being explained.
But Catelynn is also warning fans that they’re not going to see as much of Carly as they usually do. But why?
Catelynn opened up to E! News this week about why fans will notice that this season is a little different when it comes to Carly.
“The summer is coming up and if we were to have a visit,” Catelynn warns, “it would be during the summer.”
“Viewers got to see that last summer,” she observes.
But Catelynn explains that this was “because we were filming in the summer when we went to go see [Carly and her adoptive parents].”
“Obviously she is a part of our story,” Catelynn affirms of her firstborn.
“So when things come up on camera,” she reasons, “we talk about her as much as we can.”
“We are in the process of talking with her parents about having another visit and if we can make it all work for everyone,” Catelynn reveals.
She adds: “Then we will definitely try and do it.”
But there are more barriers to viewers seeing Carly on their screens than just logistical concerns about scheduling a visit.
“Carly is getting older,” Catelynn notes, “and she’s about to be 11.”
“And,” she continues, “it’s gotten to a point where her parents want to keep her private.”
Catelynn quickly adds that this is something “which we respect.”
“But another part of it,” Catelynn reasons, “is that she’s older.”
Carly is older “and she’s going to be explaining to her friends what her adoption story looks like from her view of it.”
“I think it’s important for her to be able to share with people going through it,” Catelynn expresses, “and share her story.”
That makes a lot of sense.
“And her parents aren’t on a TV show,” Catelynn reminds everyone, “and they like to have a private life.”
She notes that this is something “which I completely understand.”
“And it just comes from respecting their wishes and what they see for Carly and Carly’s future,” Catelynn explains.
She continues: “And her being able to tell her own story when she’s ready.”
Catelynn has also offered an explanation of the surprise renewal of her vows with Tyler.
“We had a lot of bumps in the road,” she acknowledges.
“We had that separation,” she notes, “so I just kind of wanted to renew our vows and have a fresh start and new beginning.”
“We’re open and honest with each other,” Catelynn says of the rules that she and Tyler use to keep a healthy bond.
“We don’t ever call each other out with each other’s names,” Catelynn adds.
“We’ve put in a lot of work and learned tools over the years,” she says, “and that’s why we are so open with the show and don’t hide anything.”
“It teaches us things and teaches the viewers things,” Catelynn reasons.
“But I feel for our relationship, it’s huge for communication,” she states. “Communication and trust are two huge things.”
Catelynn has also revealed that Tyler would like to one day have a son.
“My baby fever has been through the roof,” Catelynn admits, “but Vaeda is getting bigger and is no longer an infant.”
“One day we want to have another child,” she predicts, “but we’re not like jumping on it yet.”
“But,” she confesses, “it’s something we’re thinking about.”
“Nova says that she wants another brother and another little sister and I told her, ‘Girl you are out of your mind,” Catelynn says with a laugh.
She concludes: “I have a feeling she might jinx me.”
Amber Portwood has been arrested for domestic violence.
Granted, this is old news for anyone that has followed the Teen Mom OG universe even semi-closely over the past several months.
But the return of this MTV franchise on Tuesday night focused almost entirely on Portwood’s alleged assault last July against then-boyfriend Andrew Glennon, taking viewers behind the scenes of what was going on at the time.
On the show, Portwood confessed that she regretted the way that things played out.
As we saw, her ex — and the father of her daughter, Leah — Gary Shirley was Amber’s main support system while she coped with life after the incident, admitting flat-out she was “in shock” over what transpired.
Viewers also got to witness the rest of the Teen Mom OG cast learn about the arrest — and everyone was pretty worried, most notably Catelynn Baltierra.
After much deliberation, Amber decided to let Glennon continue living in her home with their son, James, who was very much present when she supposedly went after Andrew in a fit of rage, leading to her arrest.
In the aftermath, Portwood moved into a rental home by herself.
And while she was still able to see her daughter due to her strong relationship with Shirley, Amber was really struggling with being away from James.
“Every time I see Leah I just think about James. It just hurts,” Amber told Gary through tears.
(Editor’s Note: Amber was legally banned from seeing her son, thanks to an order of protection, following her arrest. She is is now allowed to have supervised visits and recently opened up about James.)
Still, Amber tried to put on a brave face.
She actually spent a lot time with her daughter, heading over to Gary and his wife Kristina’s home to see Leah off for her first day of school.
At one point, Portwood picked up on her daughter’s nervousness and grew concerned it was her own anxiety that her child was inheriting.
“Instead of happiness, complete joy and excitement, there was too much anxiety and nervousness mixed in with it,” Amber said later of Leah, adding:
“It’s my daughter — I don’t want her to go through anything like that.”
For an understandable reason, of course.
We’ll be seeing and hearing plenty more from Amber this season in regard to her legal and personal situation, but there were some more pleasant Teen Mom OG developments on the premiere…
… like how Catelynn and Tyler renewed their vows!
In Hawaii to celebrate their five-year wedding anniversary, the couple basically got re-marrried, which came as a huge surprise to Tyler.
Why did Catelynn spring this upon her husband?
“I decided to do it because of the year we had prior,” she told Us Weekly this month, referencing the couple’s separation in 2018 and all the obstacles they’ve overcome and adding:
‘It was like a new beginning and recommitting. We are stronger now.”

You better be staying inside and isolating yourselves these days, so what else are you gonna do, right?
Might as well meet here each week to talk about these wild and crazy ladies, no?
We know you’ve heard this a lot.
We know it’s a cliche at this point.
But that doesn’t mean it can’t still be true for some couples, and Tyler Baltierra and Catelynn Lowell certainly qualify as one of these couples — so here we go…
Tyler…
Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra aren’t done just yet.
Not with reality television, and not with having children, either.
In a new interview wiith Hollywood Life, Catelynnn made it very clear that the couple plans to conceive a fourth chil…
What the f-ck is going on?
These would not typically be the words a woman wants to hear from her man immediately prior to a re-commitment ceremony.
But Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra didn’t take part in a typical re-commitment ceremony late last year.
As you may have read about already, Catelynn and Tyler took a trip in 2019 to Hawaii in order to celebrate their five-year wedding anniversary.
Baltierra, of course, was well aware this trip was taking place.
Once they arrived in the tropical paradise, however, Catelynn arranged quite a surprise for her husband the the father of her daughters: a gorgeous, romantic, special vow renewal ceremony.
It will be featured on the upcoming season of Teen Mom OG.
However, you don’t need to wait that long to see the surprise play out.
Courtesy of E! News, MTV has released an extended sneak peek of the event, as the clip featured on this page opens with Catelynn blindfolding Tyler.
After making sure he can’t see a thing, she leads him to a private destination near the ocean blue water.
“What’s going on? What the f-ck is going on?” Tyler asks his wife. “What’s happening?”
His questions would quickly be answered, of course.
“Catelynn decided to surprise you with a recommitment ceremony and so that you can begin a fresh start,” an officiant says in the footage, adding:
“So go ahead and grab a stone and what we’re going to do is blow into the stone. Anything you’ve been holding on to, anything from the past that needs to be cleared… and then we’ll throw them in the ocean.”
Tyler and Catelynn, as you also likely have read about, have plenty from theeir past to clear away.
Catelynn has suffered from depression and contemplated suicide.
The couple has given up one child for adoption and lost another to a miscarriage.
Tyler asked for a 30-day separation at one point amid rumors of a divorce.
And yet: Here they are, still together, still in love, renewing their vows and emphasizing their feelings for each in a unique way in Hawaii.
“I decided to do it because of the year we had prior. It was like a new beginning and recommitting. We are stronger now,” Catelynn previously told Us Weekly of her decision to surprise her husband in this manner.
She added:
“Whenever you go through things as a couple and come out on the other side, you are always stronger!”
That certainly does appear to be the case here.
Catelynn concluded in the aforementioned interview that she and Tyler are “in a great place” these days, which is welcome news.
Not only do they have a toddler at home, not only do they have a baby at home… but Catelynn wants to get pregnant again! Already!
If any twosome can handle such chaos, this one probably can. They’ve proven so over the years.
Teen Mom OG returns with new episodes on Tuesday, March 17 at 8/7c on MTV.
Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra have one reason to celebrate at the moment…
… and another reason they may soon be celebrating.
And the reasons are very much connected.
