A Teen Mom star just revealed that they had a secret love child, and viewers are going crazy over this. Moreover, it happened quite some time ago, so how were they able to keep it hidden for so long? Keep reading for all the details that are currently known.
Teen Mom Star Hid Baby For Years
Since Teen Mom was the highly successful spinoff of MTV’s 16 & Pregnant. Since the cast were all teenagers when they first appeared, it only made sense that they had children with more than one partner. Chelsea DeBoer Houska was 18 when she had Aubree with Adam Lind. However, she was in her twenties when she had three more children with her now-husband, Cole Deboer. Kailyn Lowry had Elliot with Jo Rivera as a teenager, but had her other 6 children in her twenties with three other men.
The same went for the men of the show, such as Ryan Edwards, Javi Marroquin, and Gary Shirley. Now, as it turns out, Jeremy Calvert had a secret love child almost three years ago. Yet, he just revealed this a day ago via social media. Jeremy was the second husband of Leah Messer, with whom he shares Adalynn, born in 2013. Teen Mom viewers saw him have different girlfriends, but it did not appear that he had any other kids until now. He posted a TikTok with a slideshow, starting with a shadow of himself and someone small, followed by two snaps of his toddler daughter. Jeremy captioned it:
- So finally 2 year secret is out, Welcome to the world fuss butt.
As of now, he has not revealed her name or who her mother is. However, there are rumors flying that the mom was threatening to come clean. So, he spilled the beans before she could do so. Of course, this is a shock for the Teen Mom universe as they had no idea, and two years is a very long time to keep such a secret.
Fans React To The News
Teen Mom fans had a lot of questions when it came to the West Virginia native’s big news. Apparently, he had been teasing some hot tea since the beginning of 2026 and was supposed to spill in January. One follower believed that Jeremy Calvert had no idea about the baby for two years and was blindsided. Another felt that he should get a DNA test, as Adalynn is his twin, while this child does not look anything like him. However, appearances can be deceiving. More comments included:
- I need a story time. Did you just find out or are you just now comfortable sharing you have another beautiful baby girl?
- Wait who was keeping this secret? She’s sooo cute
- Oh one of those “surprise! You’re the father” things. Gotchya
He also garnered a lot of “congratulations” messages, with fans saying how adorable his little one is. Should the public be entitled to know why Jeremy has been hiding her? That is unclear, but it makes sense why they are curious.
