The Teen Mom 2 cast members are now parents of teenagers themselves, despite the show originally following their lives as teenage parents. The original four cast members – Kailyn Lowry, Chelsea Houska, Leah Messer, and Jenelle Evans – all expanded their families throughout the show’s 11-season run, with each having at least three children. Only Messer, Briana DeJesus, and Jade Cline continue on to the newest spinoff in the franchise.
The original Teen Mom 2 cast members are now parents of teenagers themselves, with only three continuing on to the newest spinoff in the Teen Mom universe.
The reality TV show “Teen Mom” has been on air for over a decade, following the lives of four girls from “16 and Pregnant” season 2. The original cast members, Kailyn Lowry, Chelsea Houska, Leah Messer, and Jenelle Evans, all shared the struggles of being teenage parents. The show has since expanded with the addition of Briana DeJesus from “16 and Pregnant” season 3, and Jade Cline, who originally appeared on “Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant.”
Throughout 11 seasons, the original cast members have become parents of teenagers themselves. Lowry and Houska both have four children each, while Messer and Evans have three each. DeJesus is the mother of two daughters, and Cline parents one. Despite the expansion of families, only three members have continued on to the latest spinoff, “Teen Mom: The Next Chapter”: Messer, DeJesus, and Cline.
Houska left the series in 2020, and Lowry followed suit in 2022 after season 11. The departure of original cast members has caused controversy among fans, though some may argue that it is time for fresh faces to take over.
Regardless, fans of the show have enjoyed watching the cast grow and evolve, both as parents and individuals. From teen moms to proud parents of teenagers, the cast has certainly come a long way since the show’s inception in 2011.
As the newest spinoff continues, audiences will be keeping an eye on the current cast members and their families, eagerly anticipating what drama and milestones lie ahead.
