Teen Mom 2 star Javi Marroquin has confirmed that he and rumored girlfriend Cassie Bucka are indeed a thing. A thing of the romantic sort.
His ex-wife Kailyn Lowry, as you might expect, reacted in VINTAGE Kailyn Lowry fashion, laying into him passive-aggressively on Twitter.
Rumors of Javi dating Cassie Bucka first circulated mid-last week, but in blasting pictures to his social media accounts over the weekend?
He’s left little room for interpretation.
In addition to posting shots of himself with his new squeeze, Javi confirmed for the first time on social media that he and Kail are divorced.
Officially. Legally. Finally. It. Is. Over.
According to Javi, Kail actually filed for divorce before Javi left for deployment back in 2015; Lowry hinted as much on Twitter as well.
As for her reaction to his new GF?
You could’ve bet your life savings on it or set your watch to it:
She didn’t name names, but Kailyn fired off a series of tweets that let her ex-husband know how she felt – and she doesn’t feel good.
“Remember guys, you have to blast your brand new relationship all over social media or it ain’t real,” she said in a thinly-veiled shot.
Kail later tweeted to one of Javi’s friends that Marroquin had an affair while they were married, a claim he has not responded to (yet).
Lowry was miserable in her marriage to Javi, she said, though that’s not exactly a bombshell or something she’s kept secret whatsoever.
Expect more details to play out on TV soon, though.
Although Javi and Kail were going through a divorce last season, you wouldn’t really know that if you just watch Teen Mom 2 online.
They were clearly having problems, and serious ones, but there was still a lot left unanswered when it comes to the couple’s future.
Season 8 (premiering January 2) will change that.
Lowry’s divorce will be the main story line for the couple; Javi confirmed as much, telling a fan that he is not looking forward to that.
Reliving that part of his life on MTV? Not a big fan.
“I was in a dark place then and finally moved on,” Javi tweeted, noting, “and me and her are doing really well now so it’ll be rough.”
At the reunion show, which has already taped even thought he premiere hasn’t aired, Kail revealed that she, too, is dating someone.
In that sense, maybe her dig at Javi isn’t totally off base, as she hasn’t revealed her new man’s identity or boasted about it on Instagram.
Still, you have to hope that if they really are doing well these days, they continue to communicate better and not resort to online trolling.
