The newbies made the originals on Teen Mom OG this week.
On the latest installment of this MTV hit, viewers went back in time and watched as incoming stars Cheyenne Floyd and Bristol Palin met the women who have been in this spotlight forever:
Maci Bookout, Amber Portwood and Catelynn Lowell.
How did this interaction go? How much tension was present? And which young lady thinks she may be pregnant again?
Wait… WHAT?!?
You need to scroll down right now for our recap of storylines and developments:
1. Here. We. Go!
This is our rundown of the episode that aired on November 12, 2018.
2. We Gotta Start with Amber…
Portwood felt ill and got very concerned that she was pregnant with another baby. (She had basically JUST given birth to her son on the show). “It feels like my stomach is just achy. I swear to God, if you got me pregnant,” Amber said to boyfriend Andrew Glennon after admitting that she felt queasy while in New York City.
3. No on the Pregnancy, But Yes on the Frustration
It was a false alarm for Amber, but what rang true was her irritation over the way MTV handled the hiring of Bristol and Cheyenne. No one even told the three original cast members this was happening until an announcement was made to the public.
4. Where’s the R-E-S-P-E-C-T?
Amber talked to a producer about how it all transpired, saying in an emotional tone on air: “This show, to us, is like family, especially with the girls. There’s been a lot of things that have happened in 10 years from my f-cking life that I have let you guys watch, that has been really personal so I need that respect back … We would really like some f-cking respect.”
5. Wait, Lady, I’m Not Done!
“Hopefully we’re not dealing with Farrah sh-t, but I don’t think they’re anything like that from what everyone’s been saying,” Amber told this producer, referencing Abraham and the two new women and adding: “It’s simply the courtesy of letting the girls who’ve been doing this for 10 years, who built this franchise with them, know what’s going on on their show.”
6. Amber’s Emotions Ran High
This caused some to wonder if she really was pregnant, which prompted a pregnancy test. It came back negative. “I need to get on birth control,” Amber said. “There are things that I wanna do in my life… Having a baby right now would kind of stop that. It’s just not the right time to have another kid.”
