I was outside when the actual physical part of the fight happened but I told Ashley (after all the yelling incident at dinner) that she doesn\u2019t need this stress, drama, etc. because it\u2019s not good for her & the baby!\u201d<\/p>\n The Michigan native continued: \u201cIt was AFTER I knew about the physical attacks & risks, that I decided to let Jade know about Ashley being pregnant so that way everyone would at least know!

No! \u2026 But honestly, I never thought Ashley would ever get physical & take that kind of risk with someone knowing she\u2019s pregnant!\u201d she noted. \u201cIf I were ever trying to fight some girl, I\u2019d want to know if she\u2019s pregnant or not! Or if I had a friend I knew who was hiding a pregnancy & she didn\u2019t have control of her emotions & was about to get into a physical altercation with someone, you best believe I\u2019d be running up there screaming at everyone involved, \u2018She\u2019s pregnant! Don\u2019t touch her!\u2019 so I could try & lessen the risk of something dangerous happening to her & her baby!\u201d<\/p>\n The microblading expert closed her post by confirming she \u201cwill ALWAYS put safety over loyalty when it comes to prioritizing what\u2019s more important and I won\u2019t ever be sorry for it!\u201d<\/p>\n Teen Mom: Family Reunion<\/em>\u2019s second season has seen its fair share of drama, including a heart-wrenching moment between Catelynn and her mom, April<\/strong>, who have had a tumultuous relationship throughout the years.<\/p>\n On the January 10 episode of the show, Catelynn cried as she confronted her mom over the way she was treated as a child as April sobbed.<\/p>\n The reality star has been candid about her journey since her 2009 episode of 16 and Pregnant<\/em>, which saw her and her then-boyfriend, Tyler Baltierra<\/strong> \u2014 the two tied the knot in 2015 \u2014 place their first-born daughter, Carly<\/a>, for adoption.<\/p>\n The Baltierras have gone on to have three more daughters: Novalee, 8, Vaeda, 3, and Rya Rose, who was born in August 2021.<\/p>\n
