Teen Mom 2 Season 7 may have officially come to an end, but that doesn’t mean fans are through scrutinizing Kailyn Lowry’s every move.
In fact, ever since she confirmed her separation from Javi Marroquin, TM2 obsessives have been combing through Lowry’s social media accounts like freakin’ Sherlock Holmes in desperate search of signs of a new relationship.
First, the theory was that Kailyn was dating Becky Hayter, a longtime mutual friend of her and Javi’s.
Earlier today, however, sources close to Kailyn denied that she’s dating Hayter, but that hasn’t stopped the army of amateur Insta-sleuths from trying to figure out exactly is going on with Lowry’s love life.
Their latest clue popped up yesterday in the form of this seemingly innocuous photo:
Kailyn captioned the above pic:
“He can put a smile on my face no matter what! My friend since the 7th grade! I love you! @mjuneallen”
So Kailyn was FaceTiming with her friend “@mjuneallen” (His IG is private, so we don’t know his real name.), and she decided to post a screen shot on Instagram?
Seems harmless enough.
But this is the Internet, and Kailyn is a reality TV celebrity and a mom, which means every person on the planet feels qualified to criticize her every move.
If you want to ruin your day and think a little bit less of humanity, go read the comments on that photo.
We don’t recommend it.
“The only one who should put a smile on your face is ur husband,” wrote one angry fan.
Another simply called her a “slut monster.”
One would think that those commenting on Kailyn’s IG page would be huge TM2 fans, but apparently not, as shockingly few were aware that this dude has been on the show before, and he’s a longtime (platonic) friend of hers.
Not that that should really matter.
How about we just stop attacking people for what they choose to do with their love lives, even if they happen to be public figures?
Ah, we kid Internet trolls. Sadly, we know you’ll never change.
