Mackenzie Standifer: Loving Life Without Ryan Edwards!

As previously reported on numerous occasions, Mackenzie Standifer has no plans to divorce Ryan Edwards. But it doesn’t sound as if she’s anxious for her law-breaking husband to return home, either. Edwards – who is Maci Bookout’s ex, the father of her son Bentley and a former Teen Mom cast member – is currently behind bars. He was arrested in December for larceny and also for heroin possession, marking at least the third time he has been apprehended by police on drug charges. Teen Mom OG alum was taken into custody in Hamilton County, Tennessee, on January 23 and charged with theft of services. According to police documents, Edwards allegedly walked out of a bar without paying his $36 bill in December — and the bartender called police. The bartender reportedly recognized Edwards from his previous mugshots, prompting his arrest. At the time, Edwards was also booked on a previous heroin possession charge stemming from an outstanding warrant. A few days later, the Red Bank County clerk’s office confirmed that Edwards appeared in court and that his case was continued until April 15… when Edwards will be brought back for judgment. Until then, he will continue to serve time in county prison. Now, back to Mackenzie… She seems “more relaxed with Ryan gone and not so much on edge,” an insider now tells Radar Online . This same source continues of Mackenzie: “She’s being more like her old self, where she is more down to earth and not in defense mode all the time.” That latter point does seem relevant these days. Standifer has clearly been annoyed of late by constant questions about her marriage, as most fans wonder why the heck she’s sticking by Ryan’s side. He wasn’t even around for her birth last fall, as Mackenzie welcomed the couple’s son, Jagger, with her husband checked into a rehab facility. “Are you and Ryan divorced?” a fan asked Standifer on social medi last last month, to which she replied with clear irritation: “Hell no!” Other reports have claimed that Mackenzie isn’t thrilled with Ryan’s behavior, but that she also believes in him, loves him and has never even contemplated a break-up. For now, she’s just focusing on her very young son, interacting often with Instagram followers and actually NOT being anti-social, which is a welcome change to her friends. Oh, and she’s also preparing to return to Teen Mom OG . So expect to hear plenty more from Mackenzie Standifer going forward!

Mackenzie Edwards Wishes Imprisoned Husband a Happy Valentine’s Day

Mackenzie Edwards is really trying, you guys. She’s trying to act all happy and normal and content with her life, even though one rather important person being missing from it. We speak, of course, about husband Ryan Edwards. Who is in prison. The former Teen Mom star has been behind bars for several weeks now, ever since his latest arrest for drug possession. He’ll be stuck behind bars until at least April , but all indications point to Mackenzie remaining by Ryan’s side despite his numerous run-ins with the law. Various insiders have said she won’t file for divorce or leave him — and now Mackenzie herself has basically confirmed this chatter. In honor of the holiday that falls on February 14 each year, the abandoned new mother shared the following photo on her Instagram story yesterday: “Happy Valentine’s Day,” Mackenzie wrote as a caption to the image, which features a bouquet of flowers, along with a photo of her and Ryan and Ryan and his son, Bentley, alongside the pink roses. It’s actually a really sad image. Poor Mackenzie was all alone on Valentine’s Day because her husband has a major drug problem. That’s pretty depressing. Edwards spent 90 days in rehab after he got arrested in the summer of 2018. He missed the birth of his son with Mackenzie as a result, but returned home around Thanksgiving, presumably a new and improved man. The photo shared at the top of this article was snapped in December, prior to Ryan’s latest arrest, when it seemed as if he’d be a dedicated husband to Mackenzie and father to his two kids. Alas, it didn’t take long for multiple rumors to make their way around the Internet. He allegedly signed up for Tinder within weeks of geting out of rehab, and allegedly asked a woman he met on that dating service for cocaine . Then, in January, Edwards was arrested for heroin possession and for theft after he left a restaurant without paying his tab. By our estimation, this marked the third time Edwards was arrested on a drug-related charge. You can learn the details of what transpired here: View Slideshow: Ryan Edwards Arrest Details: He Drank (6 Whiskeys!), He Dashed, He Got Caught, He is F–ked [UPDATED] Edwards appeared in court on Monday, January 28 for these, with a law clerk telling Radar Online: “The case has been continued to April 15, 2019. He’s going to serve time in county jail until then.” Mackenzie, however, isn’t prepared to ditch her law-breaking, drug-addicted husband. “This is devastating for Mackenzie, to have Ryan locked up again and away form her and the kids is almost too much to handle,” a source previously told Hollywood Life, expounding: “You have to understand how hard this all is on her though. Believe me, a part of her wants to just lay down in bed and stay there.” But she did partially know what she was signing up for when she started to date Ryan and she does have children to worry about and, look, the heart wants what the heart wants. “She has no plans to leave Ryan,” this same insider insists. “She is standing by him and believes that they will overcome this together” because “she has young children to remain strong for and that is what is keeping her going.” Fair enough. Maybe even admirable. For all the mockery Ryan often receives online, the guy is a father of two and clearly has a significant problem. We really do hope he gets help.

Mackenzie Standifer SLAMS Ryan Edwards: You Selfish A-Hole!

Last month, Mackenzie Standifer welcomed her second child, a boy named Jagger Ryan Edwards. Sadly, the boy's father and namesake (Ryan Edwards, not Mick Jagger) was unable to be there for his son's birth. Edwards is in rehab being treated for a severe addiction to heroin. It looks as though he'll remain there for quite some time, and though the treatment might literally save his life, it seems Mackenzie is NOT happy about it. Take a look: 1. Troubled From the Start We would begin by discussing a simpler time in Ryan and Mackenzie’s relationship — but really, these two have had issues since day one. 2. Wedding Woes Ryan famously passed out while driving to his wedding with Mackenzie. Shortly thereafter, he checked into rehab for the first time. 3. The Relapse He left treatment ahead of schedule and relapsed within weeks. That’s when the real downward spiral began. 4. Fighting the Law and Losing Ryan was arrested three times in less than 18 months for possession charges and probation violations. 5. Bottoming Out On one recent occasion, Ryan spent nearly a full week behind bars. Shortly thereafter, he checked into rehab again. 6. A Fresh Start This time around, Ryan decided to remain in treatment for 90 days. And thus far, reports of his progress have been promising. View Slideshow

Brittani Fulfer From My 600-lb Life: See Her Insane Transformation!

Not everyone from My 600-lb Life gets a happily ever after. LB Bonner died of apparent suicide . Others have compromised physical health — or struggle with their mental health. Brittani Fulfer has a much more positive life update and is flaunting some serious weight loss. Take a look: It was only a few years ago that Brittani Fuller struggled to even move because of her weight. Even years later, as you’ll see in photos below, she was still overweight, and had a lot of excess skin after losing nearly 300 pounds. Now, however, she is showing the world that she is a real weight loss success story. “Me on my birthday a couple weeks ago,” she wrote on Facebook, sharing a stunning photo. Brittani is almost unrecognizable. She looks so good! “Three years ago I weighed 600 pounds,” Brittani writes. Her post continues: “Now I am stronger, healthier, and more alive than I thought was ever possible!” “Am I skinny?” she asks herself. “Nope!” “Am I okay with that?” Brittani asks, answering: “Yep!” That is an extremely healthy mindset. “My goal is to be healthy,” Brittani explains. “Not skinny!” We hope that we do not have to explain that there are small people who are unhealthy and large people who are doing just fine. Brittani advises her fans: “Remember to love yourself today!” Brittani then wishes her followers well, writing: “Be blessed!” As you may recall, Brittani dropped her weight by 230 pounds on her episode of My 600-lb Life . In her follow-up episode, she lost another 103 pounds, and had 27 pounds of fat removed from her abdomen. As we mentioned, you can see in these photos that, even after losing a lot of weight, she had a great deal of excess skin. That is the sick joke of massive weight loss — your body might shrink, but your skin does not. Brittani revealed on My 600-lb Life that her eating was a coping mechanism for the horrific childhood sexual abuse that she survived. The abuse began when she was only five years old, and continued for another six years. Like most people who use food — or drugs, or self-harm — as a coping mechanism, she was essentially self-medicating herself with food. Different people cope in different ways. We’re glad that she was able to overcome her weight issue. In a recent post, Brittani reflected upon her weight loss journey on My 600-lb Life . “One of the questions I get the most is would I do this whole experience over again,” Brittani wrote. “The answer is…in less than a heartbeat,” she revealed. “I have become much more the me I have always wanted to be,” she said. “I WILL ALWAYS be forever grateful for this experience.” “I believe that nothing in life worth doing is easy,” she concluded. “It is hard work every day.” Good for her.

Bella Thorne Is Naked, Increasingly Desperate on Instagram

Bella Thorne is only 21, but at times, it seems that her career, such as it is, may have already peaked. Nominally, Bella is an actress, model, singer, etc., but like so many of her peers, Thorne’s most lucrative revenue stream is social media, particularly Instagram, where she’s amassed an astonishing 18.4 million followers. And like Kylie Jenner before her, Bella knows what makes the internet tick. We’re talking, of course, about nudity. It’s up there with funny cat videos and political outrage on the list of things people just can’t help but click. Unfortunately, it’s also a game of diminishing returns. The internet quickly loses interest in naked bodies it’s seen before and moves on to new nudity. Some young stars realize this and change tactics (hence Miley Cyrus’ rebranding as a sober, fully-clothed hippie), while others double-down and offer up more flesh than ever, which seems to be Bella’s strategy. Bella Thorne Is Naked We’ve seen Bella Thorne naked before, but never this much in one day. Both the pic and the video above appeared on Bella’s Instagram page on Wednesday, and the captions have left fans confused, to say the least. “So excited for the big release behind this shoot btw I’m wearing underneath nude bra and bathing suit bottoms for comfortability and it helps the whipped cream stay attached ;)” Bella wrote We appreciate the old-school emoticon, and we’re sure the Instagram admins appreciate the clarification that she’s not actually naked. But what does it all mean? “Thorne by Bella,” Thorne later added. “Gonna be a big release w this shoot I’m stoked”. Adding to the confusion is the fact that she’s posing in front of a neon sign that reads, “electric p-ssy.” Is she launching her own line of vibrators? Is she actually a sex robot from the future? Only time will tell. But hey, we can’t really hate, since it’s marketing tactics like these that helped make Kylie Jenner a near-billionaire . We suppose that’s another thing Bella has in common with Kylie — a preference for inappropriately old dudes. Bella is currently dating 31-year-old Mod Sun, just as Kylie hooked up with a Z-list rapper who was nearly a decade her senior back when she was in her teens. Look, everything’s legal here, and a 10-year age difference isn’t that weird in most circumstances, but if you’re 31 and you have a whole lot in common with people who are barely old enough to buy alcohol, it might be time to reexamine your choices. And it’s not like Bella is known for being crazy mature for her age, ya know? View Slideshow: 33 Hottest Bella Thorne Photos EVER!

Mackenzie Standifer Shares Update on Ryan Edwards, First Baby Photo

Mackenzie Standifer offered a couple of treats for her social media followers on Halloween. First, the long-time reality star provided fans with their very first glimpse of Jagger, the baby to whom she gave birth in October . It was a fleeting glimpse, mind you. Some might even take issue with this being labeled a glimpse at all. But… hey, there is a baby in the photo below, alright?!? Standifer simply included a black heart emoji as a caption to this image of Jagger and his 10-year old brother, Bentley, both of whom were out and about on Halloween night. Mackenzie has often used this same unusual graphic across her Instagram, prompting some to believe it’s meant as jab at Edwards, who continues to get into trouble with the law. But Standifer insists the emoji has nothing to do with her often-jailed husband. “So here’s the deal about my use of [the black heart],” she wrote two weeks ago online. “There’s nothing behind it except for the fact that it’s different from your everyday [red heart]. Sorry to disappoint. Lol. There’s no hidden or cryptic messages behind it… “It’s just a heart shaped emoji that happens to be black instead of red.” Oh. Okay then. Standifer made a return to Teen Mom OG this past Monday evening in order to discuss Bentley possibly going to private school with his grandparents. She and Ryan had previously quit the MTV franchise , with Mackenzie claiming the network didn’t want to be associated with a recovering drug addict such as Edwards. Mackenzie, never one to mince words, then shared a photo of Teen Mom cameras being set up around her home, writing in the caption that the scene being shot was “Faaakkkkkeeeeeeeeeee” and strongly implying that everything one sees on the show is fake. Sorry, “Faaakkkkkeeeeeeeeeee.” But Ryan’s run-ins with the law have been very real. Because he was arrested (AGAIN) for drug possession earlier this year, Edwards actually missed Jagger’s birth. According to various sources, he has never met his second son. There’s been talk (below) of Standifer leaving Edwards at last and taking their son with her, but she seemed to shoot down such chatter in an Instagram response last night. “Where is Ryan? As a fellow addict I wish him the best. Is he in treatment still?” a follower asked Standifer in reply to her Halloween picture, to which she directly responded: He is doing SO good. Proud of him. We think this is the first time Mackenzie has even acknowledged that Edwards is in treatment. Perhaps that’s progress, considering Standifer spent the better part of the last year insisting that Edwards was clean and sober following his 2017 weeks-long rehab stint. Despite the many times Edwards has faced drug charges , Mackenzie has continued to deny that her husband has a substance abuse problem. But he does. No one can say any differently now. For the sake of his very precious two children, let’s just hope he takes the proper steps to kick it once and for all. View Slideshow: Mackenzie Standifer: Leaving Ryan Edwards and Taking the Baby?!

Mackenzie Standifer: Leaving Ryan Edwards and Taking the Baby?!

If you keep up with Teen Mom news, then you already know what's going on with Mackenzie Standifer right now. She just had her baby! Of course, Ryan Edwards wasn't there for the birth, but we'll get more into that in a moment.

A Wild Ride Ryan and Mackenzie … well, they haven’t had a fairytale romance, that’s for sure. 2. The Truth Mostly because Ryan has a sincerely awful drug problem. 3. Plus This Mackenzie seems to move pretty fast, too — she’s only 21 years old, and she’s already had two husbands and two children. 4. Moving On In fact, she got engaged to Ryan just a few months after divorcing her first husband. 5. Laying It All Out So we know that they were only dating a few months, at most, when they got engaged in December of 2016. 6.

Ryan Edwards: Leaving Rehab Early to Finally Meet His Son?

Last week, we reported on the news that Ryan Edwards had checked into rehab after struggling with an opioid addiction for several years. Shortly thereafter, the world learned that Edwards' wife, Mackenzie Standifer, had given birth to a son . Jagger Edwards is the couples' first child together, but sadly, Ryan missed the birth due to his continued treatment. As painful as the thought of missing his son's first weeks on the planet must have been, it was widely assumed that Edwards would remain in treatment in order to ensure that he receives the kind of help he needs. Sadly, it doesn't look like that will be the case … 1. Taking the Right Steps While Edwards was aware that he would miss Jagger’s birth by checking into treatment, it seems he was also aware that his situation required immediate action. 2. Joyous News Fortunately, Mackenzie delivered the baby with no complications. She was accompanied in the delivery room by her mother. 3. Jen and Larry In the House Ryan’s parents, Jen and Larry Edwards, were also in the hospital the day the baby was born. 4. Ryan’s Hope Insiders say the impending arrival of his son helped motivate Ryan to seek help. 5. Plenty of Reasons Of course, the fact that Edwards has been arrested three times in the past 18 months and is very keen on avoiding jail time probably also factored into his decision. 6. Easier Said Than Done Ryan initially planned to remain in treatment for a minimum of three months, but now it seems his plans have changed … View Slideshow
