Teen Mom Wedding


I don't know why I'm so invested in these strangers' lives.  But clearly I am. I'm here writing about them. Ever since her 16 & Pregnant episode, I've been interested in Leah. She met her baby daddy and, I'm assuming, jumped into the back of his truck the night they met. Because a month later she finds out she's pregnant. With twins. Yeah.

It gets worse: after the babies are born, she decides she wants to be a teenager again and goes back to her ex-boyfriend because he's fun and her baby daddy, Corey, nags her. By nags, she means he wants her to kiss him every now and then and generally pay attention to him. Also, ex-boyfriend happens to be a jerk. Big surprise. Meanwhile Corey is working two jobs to support her and the babies. Including paying for their house, even after he moves out because Leah yells at him all the time.

One thing I don't understand about the girls on 16 & Pregnant/Teen Mom: almost all of them have appallingly low self esteem and put up with guys treating them like dirt. I know they are teenagers, but why don't any of them stand up for themselves? Finally, one of them has a supportive boyfriend and father to her children, working to pay for their basic needs. And Leah wants a guy who makes fun of her.

Somehow she grew up a lot and realized how good she had it (documented on Teen Mom 2). And now she & Corey are getting married. Well, they got married last October, but they are showing the wedding tonight on Teen Mom 2.

Even though she's only 18 and he's only 20, I think they will make it. Or at least I'm hoping they do. Because this is one couple from the 16 & Pregnant/Teen Mom family that are actually good parents and put their children before themselves. I hope you all enjoy tonight's episode as much as I will. Happy watching!

  1. I think she used the money she got from Teen Mom 2 to buy herself some hair extensions!

  2. Yeah! No joke. Neal & I were just commenting how she looks so much better without all the make up caked on.
