Putting together a Teen Mom throwback album feels a bit weird. So weird, in fact, that featuring their ultrasounds in utero wouldn"t be a stretch.
Since the MTV show premiered in December 2009 (which was preceded by 16 & Pregnant), a few cast members have had more children, including Maci Bookout and Catelynn Lowell. Some have allegedly struggled with substance abuse, and at least one enjoys a career in the adult entertainment industry.
In 2014, Bookout joined Candies" campaign to prevent teen pregnancy.
"You think homework is exhausting? A newborn can keep you up all night!," Bookout once wrote on Instagram. "Get your rest while you can, and wait until you’re ready to have kids."
