'Teen Mom OG' Spoilers, News: Premiere Recap, Catelynn Finds Out She's Pregnant
The premiere episode of "Teen Mom OG" features Maci Bookout, Farrah Abraham, Catelynn Lowell and Amber Portwood as they face new challenges in their lives. In the episode that aired on March 23, Caitlynn finds out that she's going to be a mom again, Maci is dealing with her ex, Ryan, and Amber is adjusting to life after prison.
Catelynn and Tyler are frustrated due to the negative things written about them. People are judging them for wanting to have another baby after they gave up their first child for adoption. Catelynn takes a pregnancy test and it's positive.
"Whelp, you're going to be a dad!" she exclaims. Tyler is in tears as he says, "I can't wait to hold it."
They discuss their future and Tyler tells Catelynn that he wants her to stay home for a few years to take care of the baby. They both tell their parents, and though it goes over better than expected, both sides are now pressuring them to get married.
Meanwhile, Amber is now out of prison and has just moved into her new house. Amber goes over to Gary's house to pick up their daughter Leah, and Amber tells Gary that it's nice to not have to fight with him all the time. Though she knows that they're not getting back together, she still wants to make their new relationship work.
Amber bonds with her mom and her cousin at a spa, but what should have been a relaxing experience turns nasty when Amber's mom calls Gary evil.
"Mom quit talking like that," Amber says. "You don't say somebody's evil. He is the father of my child, and he's taken care of my child in the past when I was put away."
Her mother, Tonya, walks out of the spa, shouting as she goes. Later, Amber tells her cousin that what her mother did had a very negative effect on her.
"I thought about getting high after everything so much more," said Amber. "I was feeling like, 'Oh my God, I could handle this if I was clocked out.' I need to see my daughter because I'm not feeling well."
Maci is doing well — she's in her final year of college working toward her mass communications degree, and her boyfriend Taylor has just moved in with her.
However, things are not going so well with her ex, Ryan, as she wants him to take a more active role in their son Bentley's life. She tries to call him but he tells her he's busy and hangs up on her. Frustrated, Maci turns to Ryan's parents for advice, and his mother tells Maci that perhaps she should try to email him. This frustrates Maci, but she sees that she has no other choice but to do so.
"Teen Mom OG" airs on Mondays at 10/9c on MTV.
