This week on Teen Mom: OG, Farrah and Sophia modeled at NYFW, while Amber had her first public appearance with Andrew.
How did that play out for the ladies?
MeAlsonwhile, Tyler struggled to come to terms with the fact that his dad was back on drugs as Catelynn continued her rehab stint.
When Teen Mom OG Season 5 Episode 7 got underway, Amber Portwood went to the MTV Video Music Awards with Andrew Glennon.
Then she headed over to her ex Gary Shirley’s house to see her daughter, Leah, so that Gary could meet her new boyfriend as well.
If you watch Teen Mom OG online, you know that Amber and Gary haven’t always seen eye to eye regarding her personal life choices.
See Baier, Matt.
Amber later admitted that she was worried about having multiple men around her daughter, but things seemed to go alright with Gary.
Given that Portwood and Glennon are now expecting a kid of their own, it’s something Leah will have to adjust to in short order, too.
The life of Catelynn Lowell and her husband Tyler Baltierra was even more tumultuous this week, but then again, when is it not.
While Catelynn was gone at the MTV VMAs, Tyler met up with his mother and told her that he thinks his father Butch is still on drugs.
Addiction is a disase they sadly know well.
In a discussion later, Butch agreed that when he’s done helping Tyler with his new home, he’s ready to go to rehab … for a while no less.
Butch seems to admit that he needs a longer, in-patient regimen and not your standard 30-day program, so that’s a positive step.
Meanwhile, Maci Bookout and Taylor McKinney tried to balance work and family life, while her ex-boyfriend was struggling again.
Ryan Edwards and his wife, Mackenzie Standifier, were getting so frustrated with one another, especially regarding his attitude.
Standifer told a friend that she has a hard time with his temper and her expectations of how things would be when he left rehab.
“I knew it’d be hard, but I didn’t know it’d be like this,” she said. “It’s just a daily dose of I don’t know what’s coming my way.”
Mackenzie also admitted that it scares her knowing that Ryan could start using again, while he apologized for being a burden.
“You’ve been very, very understanding. I couldn’t have done this without you,” he said in an unusually heartfelt moment.
Standifer started to cry. We can’t blame her.
Finally, Farrah Abraham and her daughter Sophia headed to New York City for a fashion show and invited Farrah’s mom along as well.
Farrah’s efforts to bond with her daughter and mom were short-lived, however, as they butted heads once again before long.
When Debra gave the girls her wedding invite, she revealed she was also inviting their co-star, Amber Portwood herself.
Farrah was not happy.
Abraham’s response was that Deb was “welcoming negativity” by doing so, so she didn’t want to be part of the big day.
Dramatic much?
