Kailyn Lowry has opened up once again about her pregnancy.
On the TM2: Live! after-show following the latest installment of her MTV reality series, Lowry was asked a few questions about the impending child in her womb.
Did we finally learn the identity of Kailyn’s baby daddy?
Not quite.
Asked about the man who’s sperm fertilized her egg by host Nessa, Lowry played coy.
She knows how badly the world wants this information and she likely knows it will eventually come out. However:
“I’m not going to talk about that. [I’m] not ready yet,” replied the 24-year old.
Ever since Lowry confirmed the long-gestating rumor about her third pregnancy, Teen Mom fans have been anxious to discover this key detail.
Did she make up at some point with Javi Marroquin and did the two make another baby together? That seems highly unlikely.
What about Tyler Hill, the man with whom Kailyn allegedly cheated on Javi during the latter’s recent deployment with the U.S. Air Force?
Or perhaps the unprotected sex partner was J.C. Cueva, a producer on Teen Mom 2 who almost certainly would be fired if he really did carry on a rumored romance with Lowry?
According to Lowry’s publicist, Casi Densmore-Koon, via Radar Online, “the father is a friend Kail was briefly dating.” That’s all she would say at this time.
So… what tidbit about her pregnancy did Lowry drop on Monday evening?
The mother of seven-year old Isaac (with Jo Rivera) and three-year old Lincoln (with Marroquin) told MTV that she’s “17 weeks” along in her latest pregnancy.
This means she’s in her second trimester; just shy of the halfway point; and is expected to give birth in July.
A summer baby! How nice!
And also, of course, in Kailyn’s case, how controversial.
In announcing her pregnancy via her official blog, Lowry swore this was a “choice” she made.
She acknowledged that she said during many Teen Mom episodes how she did not want any more children.
But she now claims this was a product of being stuck in a bad marriage with Marroquin and that her miscarriage in 2015 inspired her to want to try again in order to expand her family.
“When I started thinking long and hard, I knew I wanted more. This was the choice I made,” Lowry wrote late last month, adding:
“This is the baby I thought I wasn’t sure if I could have. “I know this isn’t an ideal situation but I know everything will be okay.”
Kailyn hasn’t exactly been showered with support from her fellow Teen Moms. Or by folks on Twitter.
“Three babies, three baby daddies… sad to see her be another teen pregnancy statistic,” wrote on social media user, while another chimed in as follows:
“I pray Joe & Javi fight to get their sons at 100% full custody. These children need structure, family and security the most.”
But while Jenelle Evans is yet to offer any sort of congratulatory message, Farrah Abraham at least Tweeted last week:
“I wish [Kail] and her three kids all the best.”
Marroquin reportedly plans on slamming the heck out of Lowry in a forthcoming book, but Kailyn told MTV that she can count on Rivera.
“Jo and I were able to address our concerns and talk about things moving forward,” she said of how she confided in Jo about her latest pregnancy.
“Ultimately, he was happy for me and he said, ‘Babies are blessings.’ So I couldn’t ask for a better support system from him.”
As for as Javi is concerned?
“We didn’t have a conversation because we clearly don’t know how to have a healthy conversation,” she said.
