The Original Teen Moms will Say Goodbye
16 and Pregnant Season 1 Reunion
Teen Mom Season 3 Reunion
After four years and four seasons, MTV has officially announced that the original girls of Teen Mom’s fourth season will be their last. MTV released the official statement to US Weekly Magazine earlier today. On a Thursday night in June of 2009, we first met Maci, Ryan, and Bentley from Tennessee. The next Thursday we met Farrah and Sophia, then Amber, Gary, and Leah. A couple weeks later we witnessed what I think we can all agree was one of the most touching moments in television history: Carly Elizabeth being given away by her loving birth parents, Catelynn and Tyler, to a safer and more reliable home in Brandon and Theresa.
Oh how four years has changed so many of their situations. Catelynn and Tyler are the only Teen Mom couple still together…………and they’re also the only ones that don’t have a child that can benefit from that. We’ve discovered that Farrah’s situation was far more complex than anyone could have predicted in her 16 and Pregnant episode. The good news is that she is now happy and healthy furthering both her modeling and culinary careers. Maci is still in school studying broadcast journalism at Chattanooga State, and is reportedly in the beginning stages of a relationship with motocross racer, Kyle Regal. Amber is on probation and lost custody of her daughter. Luckily, Leah has a committed, “Mr. Mom” Daddy that has always been there to step in and fill in the gaps.
I leave you guys with some before and after photos of all the mommies, daddies, and babies.
ETA: No word yet on the future of Teen Mom 2. I assume their days are numbered, though. A third season has already been taped and confirmed. I would guess that they too will end after 4 seasons.
Maci’s New Boyfriend (or “just a friend” as the kids call it these days)
Miss Maci Bookout didn’t just go on spring break to have a fun time in Daytona with her friends! Maci, who broke off her two-year relationship with Kyle King at the end of January, met a new Kyle to welcome into hers and little Benny’s life. While both have denied that they’re dating, which we believe here at Teen Mom Central (at least for now), they seem to be a perfect match! So who is Maci’s new boyfriend friend?
My new favorite picture of Maci and Bentley! So Adorable!!!
Kyle Regal is a motocross racer that resides in Kemp, Texas. He is just a few months older than Maci (compared to Kyle and Ryan who were both 4 years older) as he’ll be 21 on May 14th of this year, and Maci will be 21 on August 10th of this year. He races for the San Manuel Yamaha team, so he has a job (again, an improvement from unemployed Kyle) and has been a professional motocross racer since 2009. He raced in Daytona where Maci and him met up on her Spring Break. He finished 13th overall in the SX class. Experts say he’s a pretty admirable racer who is focused on his career and not the money, as displayed by the fact he’s turned down multiple deals where decent amounts of cash would take up home in his bank account, but he refused the deal because they were with poor quality teams or equipment. He wants to succeed on his own, which means he’s not as likely to take advantage of Maci’s paycheck. This is all hypothetical though, as they are NOT dating…..yet.
Maci and Kyle Regal snuggling up in a cab!
Even if they say they’re not dating, they’re sure acting like it! Maci and Kyle snuggled up to each other in a cab while in Daytona (pictured above), along with taking tons of pics together. When Maci got home the connections continued. On twitter, her and Kyle talk back and forth, flirting with each other. Maci might need a guy like this thanks to her hectic schedule. Having a guy that understands she can’t always be there, just like he can’t always be there, thanks to her job might turn out a positive experience for the motocross loving mommy. Especially since the opposite, a guy who can always tag along with her, didn’t seem to work out as she’d hoped. Bentley, a motocross lover himself (even naming his Jack Russel Terrier puppy at his Daddy’s house “Moto”), skyped with Kyle Regal, where Maci said there were “No Girls Allowed!”. The main man in her life and her new friend talked all about racing all night! Many are saying this was “too soon” but I say that as long as this new Kyle character isn’t playing “Daddy” to Bentley in person than it’s no different then Bentley meeting any of Maci’s other friends. Skyping seems like a pretty innocent way for Bentley to get to know the new Kyle from a distance before Maci introduced them in person assuming they eventually do date. Maybe he’s just a rebound, maybe he really is just a friend, or maybe this is the start of the rest of Maci life when it comes to finding that traditional family setting she always hoped she could give Benny. Whatever it is, we here at Teen Mom Central love it!
Maci Bookout lets her (Multi-colored) Hair Down in Daytona!
Like so many other college students, Maci Bookout headed down to Daytona this weekend to party her pants off (luckily she had a pretty bikini underneath) in Daytona Beach! Lucky for us fans, Maci and Company have been documenting the trip and updating us about the smashing time they’re having!
Maci and friends entered the Sunshine State by way of car early morning and Spring Break officially began!
Maci showed off her infamous inked up back! The cupcakes, lighting bolt,
notebook paper, and human heart all seemed to be perfectly intact!
Maci’s friend Katie, who’s also her and Bentley’s roomie back in
Chattanooga, primed her cheek so Maci could plant a smooch!
Maci and her friend Hope shared a hug so great that it almost sent
Maci over the balcony! Lucky for us, Hope has quite the strong grip
and held on tight to America’s favorite tatted-up Teen Mom.
Maci and Co. headed out for trip to experience Daytona nightlife!
Bentley woke up at Ryan’s this morning expressing his displease that he
wasn’t invited to build sandcastles and catch clams with his pretty momma
in Daytona this weekend. He is having a fun filled weekend with his daddy,
his mimi, and his grandpa, though!
Finally, the gorgeous Teen Mom flashed a genuine smile with
a beautiful backdrop for all of us not on spring break at the beach to
be jealous about! I’ll keep updating you guys as their trip wraps up for the week!
