Leah Messer Admits to Drug Problem: The Shocking Details
If you"ve kept up with Teen Mom 2 over the years, then you"re definitely familiar with Leah Messer and her …
Well, her dark times.
A few years ago, she began behaving strangely, as we saw in episodes, and many fans speculated that she"d developed a drug problem.
She was falling asleep while talking on the phone, she temporarily lost custody of her twins to Corey Simms.
And while she"s admitted that she did take prescription painkillers for a short period of time after giving birth to her youngest daughter, she"s never outright said that she"s had a problem with them.
She"s definitely never said that a drug problem was to blame for all that questionable behavior.
But in a new episode of her podcast, Leah is finally getting honest.
1. Oh, How Things Have Changed
Leah Messer may not have the constant trashy drama that Jenelle Evans has, and she may not be as unlikable as Farrah Abraham, but she definitely has one of the most compelling stories on Teen Mom.
2. SO Sad
And hers is definitely the saddest.
3. Some History
When Leah was in high school, she hooked up with Corey Simms after breaking up with her boyfriend … and she got pregnant with twins.
4. Moving So Fast
They did the traditional thing and got engaged, then married, even though obviously they were too young for absolutely all of that.
5. Oh, Leah
They ended up getting divorced because Leah cheated on him, and also because they were just pretty incompatible about a lot of things.
6. Enough, Please
Oh, and one of their twins has a rare form of muscular dystrophy, and doctors can’t be sure exactly what course the disease will take.

Leah Messer Spills on Jason Jordan: Where Did It Go Wrong?
So much for those wedding bells.
They won"t be ringing any time soon for Leah Messer and Jason Jordan.
Despite what seemed like a healthy and serious relationship between the Teen Mom cast member and her older boyfriend of several months, sources confirmed this week that it"s all over between Messer and Jordan.
Was the age difference too much to overcome?
Did one side cheat?
Is there anything scandalous here to report?
Scroll down for an update regarding this split, including Leah"s first comments since the news went viral…
1. Let’s Get Right To It: What Happened?
“It just wasn’t working,” a source told Us Weekly of Messer and Jordan, adding mysteriously: “They’re just not a good fit.” But, wait a minute… wasn’t there talk of a wedding?!?
2. How Did Everything Just Fall Apart So Quickly?
This is the question on most people’s minds after the couple got introduced by Jordan’s cousin, who has been close to Leah for some time.
3. They Had So Much in Common!
Jordan has a two-year old from a previous marriage and Messer, of course, has three kids from her previous relationships.
4. But That Wasn’t All!
Said an insider to Us Weekly, back when things seemed headed in a very positive direction: “They share the same faith and have gone to church together. They love hiking, cooking and are both very family oriented. He’s very attentive.”
5. Was There a Problem Between Leah’s Kids and Jordan Maybe?
Nope. Not according to Messer herself a few weeks back, as she said for the record: He’s a good dad. He’s an all-around good person.”
6. Messer Tries to Explain
Leah broke her silence on the split by sharing this meme on Twitter. It is okay to let go, that’s for certain. But our questions remain!

Leah Messer and Jason Jordan: It"s Over!
So much for those marriage rumors, huh?
Heck, so much for those dinner plans they may have had for this upcoming weekend.
The romance has come to an end for Leah Messer and Jason Jordan.
The Teen Mom 2 star and her older boyfriend had only been an item for about six months, but they seemed to be pretty darn serious.
Where did things go wrong?
“It just wasn’t working,” a source tells Us Weekly. “They’re just not a good fit.”
Messer and Jordan were introduced by the latter’s cousin, who has known Leah for some time.
There was a 14-year age difference between the MTV personality and her new man, but that didn’t seem to get in the way.
“Even though he’s older, they have a lot in common,” a different insider told the same tabloid this summer, adding at the time:
“They share the same faith and have gone to church together. They love hiking, cooking and are both very family oriented. He’s very attentive.”
Messer, as readers likely known, has eight-year old twins named Ali and Aleeah. She shares them with ex-husband Corey Simms.
She also has a five-year old daughter named Adalynn who she shares with her second ex-husband, Jeremy Calvert.
Jordan, meanwhile, has a two-year old of his own from a previous relationship, but the children all got along well, Us Weekly wrote in the past, with Messer’s especially taking a liking to Jordan.
We hope this split doesn’t make them too sad.
“He’s a good dad,” Messer said of Jason several weeks ago. “He’s an all-around good person.”
This may still be the case, of course.
Jordan may be absolutely perfect.
But the real question is whether he was perfect for Leah — and the answer appears to be no.
Teen Mom 2 fans will now be left with an obvious follow-up question to this news.
They’ll be wondering: What does this mean for Messer and Calvert? Does it open the door to another reconciliation between the exes?!?
Leah has made it fairly clear that she isn’t interested in getting back together with Calvert, despite the fact that the two totally knocked boots earlier this year.
(That is, Messer and Calvert hooked up.)
Back in the day, Calvert questioned Messer’s ability to care for their daughter and accused her of harboring an addiction to prescription painkillers, a claim that she still denies.
However, he called Leah during an episode of Teen Mom 2 several months ago and acknowledged how far she has come as a woman and a mother and said he was really sorry for the way he acted after they broke up.
“I really truthfully, want to, like, deeply apologize for saying that about you,” Jeremy told Leah. “I do really want to thank you for like being a good mom to my kids.”
He even added:
“No matter what, I’m still always going to love you.”
Here. Read all about it below:
We’re pretty sure Calvert would try again with Messer in an instant.
Does she feel the same way, however?
Stay tuned, folks.
The next season of Teen Mom 2 may need a fresh storyline.

Leah Messer Gets Real, Confesses to Suicidal Thoughts
Leah Messer would like to clear up a misconception.
She knows that many Teen Mom fans out there have judged her as a mother.
She knows that many are aghast over the custody battle she had to fight with ex Corey Simms over their twin girls, Ali and Aleeah.
She knows this is a sensitive topic.
But Messer recently spoke to Us Weekly and shed more light than ever before about what transpired in the past with Simms and her kids and where they stand now.
Ready to get caught up? Let"s do this…
1. Messer Sought Treatment in 2015
She checked into a rehab facility for depression and anxiety, as nearly all Teen Mom fans know by now. This came at a time when her daughters, Ali and Aleeah, were five years old.
2. The Custody Battle with Simms Turned Ugly
Just look at the cover above as evidence. “It was like a slap in the face,” Leah told Us Weekly, describing the moment she found out her ex-Simms received custody of their twins.
3. What Was Actually Determined?
On October 7, 2015 a judge ruled that Simms would care for the girls Monday-Friday, leaving Leah with only weekends to spend with them. So he never got FULL custody.
4. Said Messer at the Time:
“I feel like they should have both of us in their lives. At the end of the day, my kids are going to be happy, and I don’t care what I have to do to make them happy.”
5. Fast Forward to Today and Messer is Revisiting This History…
“It’s always been 50/50. People were like, ‘Leah lost custody’ … I almost did, but I never lost custody of my children,” she tells Us Weekly, perhaps doing a tiny bit of revisionist history.
6. How Are Things These Days?
We haven’t heard a lot about Messer and Simms in awhile, but this is what the former says of their agreement and their co-parenting: “The current custody situation, just honestly … whatever we think is best for them, we do. We are doing the week on and then a week off.”
Leah Messer Teases Podcast: I"m Aiming to Inspire!
Leah Messer has a lot to say.
And she hopes you will want to listen.
The veteran Teen Mom cast member has spoken to Us Weekly about a brand new project that she really hopes will make a difference in the lives of her fans.
It"s a podcast.
But it"s different than the podcast made famous by fellow MTV colleague Kailyn Lowry.
In what way? And what will Messer"s podcast be titled?
Scroll down to find out!
1. Let’s Podcast!
Messer is making her move into this ever-growing medium. She tells Us Weekly that new episodes of her podcast will drop every Wednesday.
2. What Will It Be Called?
Life Reboot. What do you think? We like it! You can’t say you aren’t curious to hear what a podcast with such a title will be about.
3. Can She Sum It Up? What is She Trying to Accomplish with It?
“[It’s] a life transformational podcast,” the 26-year old explains to this tabloid. “Of course it’s fun … but it’s also inspirational, aspirational and motivational.”
4. Wait… Doesn’t Kailyn Lowry Have a Podcast?!?
Yes, it’s called “Coffee Convos” and she co-hosts it with Lindsie Chrisley of Chrisley Knows Best. Does this mean Leah is trying to start a rivalry with her fellow MTV personality?
5. No, No, No, Leah Explains
We’ll let Messer outline the differences: “Kail’s is day-to-day conversational and ours is more about transforming your life and learning how to become the best version of yourself. Even though they’re different, we love to support one another. I was on Kail’s and she was just on ours … the third episode I think.”
6. Who Might Appear?
Leah isn’t dropping any names, but: “I think I’ll definitely have other Teen Mom stars and other … people that [manager] Lindsay [Rielly] and I both know on,” she previews. “We have an exciting lineup of guests for the next couple of months.”

Leah Messer Comes Clean About Secret Boyfriend: We Lived Together!
On Wednesday, MTV aired a special installment of Teen Mom 2 entitled Secrets Revealed.
And Leah Messer certainly helped the show deliver on that promise.
In one of the episode"s most memorable segments, Leah opened up about her relationship with T.R. Dues.
Rumors about Leah and T.R. have been circulating for years, but this is the first time that Leah addressed the matter publicly.
And saying that some fans were shocked by her revelations would be putting it very mildly.
1. Shunning the Spotlight
Leah has a reputation as one of the most secretive Teen Moms. With the possible exception of Chelsea Houska, she seems to value her privacy more than any of her co-stars.
2. Leah Opens Up
On this week’s special, however, Leah spilled the tea in a major way, opening up about a period in her life that had long been shrouded in secrecy.
3. Happy Again
These days, Leah is dating Jason Jordan and appears to be happier than she’s been in years.
4. Darker Days
Following her divorce from Jeremy Calvert, however, Leah went through a difficult time which resulted in her decision to check into rehab for emotional issues.
5. Keeping a Low Profile
Leah quite understandably shied away from the spotlight quite a bit in those days, hoping to protect her privacy, as well as that of her daughters.
6. It’s All Coming Together
And it seems it’s for that reason that Leah was so secretive about the relationship that helped her through one of the most difficult times in her life.

Leah Messer Flaunts Relationship With Scandalous New Boyfriend on Instagram!
Leah Messer’s love life is a subject of constant fascination among Teen Mom 2 fans.
For a while there it looked as though Leah would get back together with Jeremy Calvert, but when that reconciliation fizzled out, Ms. Messer quickly rebounded.
These days, Leah is dating Jason Jordan, and while he seems to make her immensely happy, some fans have taken issue with the budding romance.
Over the weekend, Leah documented her latest couple’s getaway on Instagram, and some fans saw the pics as an opportunity to reiterate their complaints.
For one thing, Jason is much older than Leah (she’s 26; he’s 38).
It’s not the kind of cradle-robbery that makes you want to alert the authorities, but it’s enough of an age gap to raise a few eyebrows.
Especially since despite the fact that he’s pushing 40, Jason still seems to have quite a bit of growing up to do.
Naturally, once word of the relationship went public, fans started doing their research and dug up everything they could about Jason.
The most interesting thing they unearthed was a series of YouTube videos in which Jason played a character named West Virginia Meth Man.
Now, as far as we know, Jason never dabbled in meth himself.
And it appears he was just poking fun at some of the more, um … colorful residents of his home state.
Still many found the skits to be in poor taste, particularly one video in which Jason (as Meth Man) commented on the Ray Rice domestic abuse scandal.
“Just want to make a little comment about Ray Rice,” quoth Meth Man.
“Think he can go around punching women in the mouth, knocking them out cold. When I was high on meth one time I did that and nobody got mad. They just expect it out of me!”
Now, that’s obviously not the most tasteful joke, but anyone accusing Jason of condoning violence against women would be willfully misrepresenting the bit.
Should he have just refrained from joking about domestic violence at all? Probably?
But the crux of the gag is that only the most repugnant individuals — your Ray Rices and your Meth Mans — would engage in such behavior.
To be clear, the Meth Man routine isn’t particularly funny, and Leah is probably overjoyed by the fact that her boyfriend has retired the character.
But a few seriously unfunny skits shouldn’t be a deal breaker — otherwise, Ariana Grande would have to dump Pete Davidson! Zing!

Leah Messer and Jason Jordan: We"re Instagram Official!
Leah Messer is dating an older man named Jason Jordan.
This is not news, as we first reported on the relationship in early July 2018.
What is news, however, is just how serious the romance has apparently become between the Teen Mom 2 star and this relatively new man in her life.
How do we know for sure?

Leah Messer Cares More About D-ck Than Being a Mom, Fans Claim
Last week, the world learned that Leah Messer is dating Jason Jordan, a 38-year-old fellow West Virginian and father to a 2-year-old girl.
Leah"s love life has always been a subject of intense interest to Teen Mom 2 fans, even though her storylines on the show these days tend to be centered around the challenges she faces as a mother of three young girls, one of whom suffers from a debilitating medical condition.
Now, it seems some fans think Leah should take a page from the series" producers by focusing less on men and more on her daughters.
It"s an unfair allegation that seems to serve no purpose other than maligning the reputation of a loving and devoted mother.
But this is the internet in 2018, a time and virtual place where it"s not hard for such fake news to gain traction.
1. The Messer-Simms-Calvert Clan
Leah has really stepped up her motherhood game and renewed her focus on her daughters’ health, happiness, and well-being in recent years. But she still can’t catch a break from her most virulent critics.
2. Ere Jordan
These days, Leah is in a serious relationship with Jason Jordan, but on the latest episodes of TM2 — which were filmed several months ago — she’s still single and looking to mingle … specifically with her second husband, Jeremy Calvert.
3. Spilling Tea
On this week’s episode, Leah met up with Kailyn Lowry in order to record an episode of Kail’s podcast. But before the official interview began, Leah shared an off-the-record revelation.
4. Reunited?
Leah revealed to Kailyn that she had recently “hooked up” with ex-husband Jeremy Calvert.
5. A Complicated Situation
Leah made it sound like a casual hookup, but she’s demonstrated in the past that she would be very much open to the idea of reconciling with Calvert.
6. On the Market
Jeremy recently split with former girlfriend Desi Kibler, so he’s on the market. But it seems some viewers feel that Leah should keep her hands to herself …

Leah Messer: Her New Boyfriend Used to Beg for Meth Online
It’s been a matter of days since fans learned of Leah Messer’s new boyfriend.
While they want to be happy for her, they can’t help but be a little worried at a series of hastily-deleted videos that fans uncovered.
Across multiple strange videos, Leah’s new boo begs for meth. Oh dear.
Just a short time ago, there was a series of disturbing YouTube videos about a West Virginia Meth Man.
One was titled “West Virginia meth man finds his woman?” And yes, Jason Jordan was the man in question.
“Reckon I could be persuaded, given you’re providing some meth,” Leah’s new boyfriend said on camera.
“Maybe we could talk a little bit?” he continued, suggesting: “Maybe meet up? Have a drink? Maybe? I need my meth!”
In a subsequent video, he resorted to singing.
“Bout to go score me some meth!” he sang. “Meth, I love you. I shoot it in my veins. I snort it up my nose. I smoke it in a pip. Meth, meth, meth, you’re my best friend.”
Remember the world’s collective horror when that elevator video showed Ray Rice punch his fiancee?
Unfortunately, Jason Jordan had some commentary on that.
“Just want to make a little comment about Ray Rice,” he said in yet another West Virginia Meth Man video.
If you’re thinking that there’s no way that this can end well … you’re right.
“Think he can go around punching women in the mouth?” he asked. “Knocking them out cold?!”
The now-deleted video continues: “When I was high on meth one time, I did it and nobody got mad at me!”
“They just expect it out of me,” Jason Jordan concluded.
In his very first video in the YouTube series, he at least avoided joking about domestic violence while referring to meth.
“You do meth for six months,” he lamented on camera. “And people think there is something wrong with you.”
“Come on!” he said. “Everybody’s doing it! I’m fine!”
While all of that would understandably make anyone cringe, let’s be clear — this is not a series of videos of confessing to using drugs.
Instead, these are strange parody videos that Jordan made with the hope of amusing himself and others.
“My meth man videos got me kicked off fb lol,” he tweeted after getting banned from Facebook.
He then advertised that they would be appearing on YouTube … and provided a little context.
“Jason Jordan meth man on YouTube lol,” his tweet continued. “Making fun of West Virginia meth addicts lol.”
So no, Jason Jordan isn’t a meth addict who begs for meth on the internet.
He has just, in the past, exhibited wildly questionable taste. Perhaps he was hoping that his “edgy humor” would make him achieve viral fame.
You have to actually be funny for that, folks.
Whatever it is that Leah sees in him, we hope that it’s not a sense of humor.
But we’re happy for her that she’s moving on romantically. And since he’s deleted these videos, it looks like he’s embarrassed about that chapter of his life online.
If he had tried to defend them, well … that would be another story. If all that someone’s done is cracked some bad jokes, let them move on.
