So hey, how are you feeling about the big news that Javi is going to be a father again? Probably pretty weird, right? It seems like good news, for the most part — Javi and his girlfriend, Lauren Comeau, are happy about it, at least. But there are still a lot of questions about the whole thing, because wasn't he dating Briana DeJesus and/or trying to get back with Kailyn Lowry not too long ago? It's a whole lot to unpack, and a lot of people have a lot of feelings about it all. So let's just get into it, all right? 1. Baby Time! Yeah, so Javi is having a baby with Lauren Comeau, that girl he dated long distance for a few weeks last year before getting with Briana DeJesus. They started dating again in March, and now … well, now this is happening. 2. Yep, This is Real Life So he and Briana broke up in January, he and Lauren began dating again in March, and this is what’s happening now, less than three months later. 3. Good Question! Kailyn responded to the news by sharing a link and asking “what is life?”, which seems fair. She did add that she already knew about the news, and that she wishes Javi and Lauren well. 4. A Word from Briana In an official statement, Briana said something similar, telling Us Weekly “I’m happy for them. I wish them nothing but the best. I don’t wish it was my baby.” Cute, right? 5. Teen Mom Bros Tyler Baltierra from Teen Mom OG was quick to offer a nice word — like a genuinely nice word, not the weird cattiness that Javi’s exes have been offering. 6. Aww, Taylor! Taylor McKinney, Maci’s husband, gave him a shout out as well. View Slideshow
KA… BOOM! Javi Marroquin and Lauren Comeau dropped a gigantic bombshell on the Internet this week, revealing that the couple is expecting its first child together some time in 2018. The shocking news comes on the heels of MTV airing one Teen Mom 2 episode after another that features Javi right smack dab in the middle of a feud between ex-wife Kailyn Lowry and ex-girlfriend Briana DeJesus. But it's now clear that Marroquin has moved past those women and set his sights on a future with Comeau, who he first dated in the summer of 2017 before the pair broke up and got back together this spring. For good this time, we hope, for the sake of his impending child. How have Kailyn and Briana reacted to Comeau's pregnancy? Scroll down to find out! 1. It Really is True Javi and Lauren shared this photo on Facebook, which includes a snapshot of the latter’s sonogram, along with Marroquin’s four-year old son, Lincoln. Pretty darn cute, huh? 2. Javi is Pretty Psyched, Too “A baby is a blessing and I am ecstatic for the future,” wrote Marroquin along with that previous photo, adding of his son and lover: “Lincoln is happy, I’m happy, and Lauren is happy.” 3. A Time to Reflect Added Javi: “Been kinda quiet lately for many reasons. I was sad I couldn’t share the good news because I was afraid of what people would say. The amount of love I’ve received is so overwhelming and so appreciated. I realized no negative comment will take this moment away from us.” 4. Farewell for Now “Gonna go on a little hiatus from social media to take all this in and enjoy it with my family and loved ones,” continued the Teen Mom veteran, concluding: “For those sending love, thank you! We appreciate it. And to you @lauren3elizabeth thank you for blessing me with another child. We are gonna be amazing parents together.” 5. Kailyn Reacts! Lowry was married to Javi and shares custody of little Lincoln with him. This is what she said in response to Comeau’s pregnancy: “I knew. I wish them the best.” 6. That Was It? Yes. What else was she going to say? (We do wonder for how long she has known, however.) View Slideshow
Things have been rough between Kailyn Lowry and Javi Marroquin for a while now. Pretty much ever since they met. Sure, they were probably in love or whatever at some point — they did get married and have a baby together, after all — but things have never really been easy between them. Remember how much they would fight over anything and everything? Literally just any old thing? It was bad But although there was a lot of bad blood between them , they managed to put aside their issues last year for the sake of their son, Lincoln. At some point, it even seemed like they were forming a pretty solid friendship. Or at least they were before Briana DeJesus came into the picture. When Javi started dating Briana last fall, his relationship with Kailyn pretty much fell apart. There was drama between the two of them, and between Kailyn and Briana . Again, it was bad. Unfortunately — or let’s be real this was probably best for everyone involved — Javi and Briana broke up earlier this month . It wasn’t a terribly dramatic breakup or anything. The big issues were that he wanted to settle down and get married again, and also that she planned on getting more plastic surgery and he wasn’t cool with it. But still, they’re no longer together, and so it seems like he and Kailyn are able to tolerate each other once again. So are they tolerating each other enough to give love one more chance?! Javi appeared on Kailyn’s podcast this week, and they touched on the subject of a possible reconciliation in the future. You know, because it worked so well the first time around. “I just think that there’s a lot of history between us that neither one of us will ever let go,” Javi explained . “Even if we were to try again in the future it wouldn’t work because I know the type of person I am and the type of person she is. We argue. It just wouldn’t happen.” It’s interesting because while he admitted that things would never work out between them, he did say “if we were to try again in the future.” When are these two crazy kids going to get it together?! Kailyn confirmed that their love just is not meant to be, saying that “Javi argues out of passion. Javi is a habitual arguer and a ‘never letter goer.'” “I couldn’t have said it better,” she told him. “I don’t think we could get back together.” They both agreed that being on Teen Mom 2 definitely played a hand in the downfall of their marriage, and thankfully Javi admitted that jumping from one Teen Mom to another probably wasn’t the best idea. “I’m trying to learn from my mistakes and not repeat those mistakes so moving forward, I’m not gonna mix that,” he said. What, was he thinking about landing another Teen Mom next before he came to this realization? Should Leah Messer be on the lookout? It actually sounds like he’s still a little hung up on Briana . “I don’t know what the future holds,” he told Kailyn about his most recent ex. “There is a lot we have to discuss and talk about before we make any other decisions.” “But if we do get back together, I would hope we can all get along.” Fat chance, buddy. “It would never happen,” Kailyn replied. “We would never get along. You allowed her to disrespect me to my face, also on camera, also in text messages.” “When I said what I had to say in a nice way you defended her and not me. We raise a son together, you don’t raise a son with her.” There’s that good old bickering we know and love! Look, is there any real chance that these two will ever get back together? Yes, honestly. It definitely could happen — there seems to be some unresolved feelings there for sure. But is there an even bigger chance that they will go back and forth between being friendly and being ridiculously, hilariously petty for the rest of their whole entire lives? You bet your bottom dollar. View Slideshow: Kailyn Lowry Reacts to Javi Marroquin-Briana DeJesus Breakup: Did She Throw Shade?
After hearing that Travis Scott can’t deal with Kylie Jenner’s pregnancy hormones and has even turned to Kanye for advice on how to deal with Kylie, it’s not a huge surprise to hear that the expecting couple is fighting. Especially since they apparently can’t agree on where to spend Christmas (which is in just 10 days). Travis and Kylie haven’t been dating long, so this is in fact their first Christmas while also being their last before the baby’s born. Will this pair of expecting parents split before they even name their daughter? Kylie Jenner is pregnant with Travis Scott’s baby, and the news has turned Kylie’s life upside down. She’s a 20-year-old hottie who’s accustomed to looking a certain way. Now, she’s apparently so insecure about her radically transformed pregnant body that Kylie just plans to hide out for a while — possibly until the baby’s born. And perhaps even for a while after. (Kylie totally deserves a break, since she’s spent a decade as one of the most famous humans on the planet, but it’s sad to hear that she’s doing this because of body image issues) Kylie’s still been surrounded by her family and her closest, most trusted friends. Anyone else, and she might worry about someone betraying her by snapping photos of her baby bump. One person who hasn’t been spending as much time with her lately has been Travis Scott. He’s still touring. One imagines that he planned these concerts earlier this year and had zero plans to impregnate his then 19-year-old girlfriend. He might have not even been seeing Kylie yet. As we mentioned when we discussed Kylie Jenner’s reported misgivings about the pregnancy , Travis Scott is probably going to stay busy with performances, off-and-on, right up until the due date. While it’s nice for Travis to plan on spending time with his newborn, Kylie wants to see him here and now. Being there for your child should always be your first priority, but you should also be there for your girlfriend. HollywoodLife reports that Christmas threatens to tear the couple apart. According to their source close to the couple: “The one thing they’re having a little friction over right now is where to spend Christmas day.” That’s a big decision for any serious couple. “He wants to be in Houston with his family and he wants her to come with him.” Travis has reportedly offered to fly Kylie to Houston on a private jet (which is nice, though seriously how else would she get there?) If Kylie and Travis remain a couple in the long term, they could set up plans to alternate between their respective families on holidays. But this is their first Christmas. Kylie, whose feelings are doubtless amplified by pregnancy hormones, is broken up about it. “She’s trying to keep her cool about it, but she will be hurt if he doesn’t spend Christmas with her and the family.” Kylie lives very, very close to many of her relatives. She’s probably needing to feel near them even more than usual right now. And Kylie doesn’t want to do Christmas separately. “They’re not going to have New Year’s together because he has a show in Miami.” It sounds like she’s accepted that he won’t be with her to ring in 2018, at least. “So, she’s hoping that she’ll get to have him with her for Christmas.” It makes sense. Honestly, beyond emotional neediness and craving the familiar, she may just be nervous about traveling and being away from her family at this stage of her pregnancy. “She feels like it’s only fair.” Of course, while we don’t have the same inside scoop on Travis’ thoughts, we can imagine how he sees this. He’s already spending time away from his whole family. Some while touring, some while spending time with Kylie. Sure, Travis and Kylie went to Houston and we’re sure that they visited Travis’ family then, but we don’t imagine that he sees his family as regularly as Kylie sees hers. And once their baby’s born, he’ll be spending even less time outside of Calabasas. He might see this as a great time to spend some quality time with his family before the overwhelming duties of being a new parent begin. That’s a fair point, too.

At one point, Kailyn Lowry and Javi Marroquin were considered one of the most stable couples in the Teen Mom franchise. Oh, how times have changed. These days, Kailyn and Javi have been divorced for over a year, but they seem unable to stop rehashing what went wrong in their marriage. Part of the problem is that fans are still intensely interested in learning every detail of Lowry and Marroquin's drama, which means there's an extensive market for their tales of marital woe. It's a state of affairs (no pun intended) that's led to some very surprising revelations… 1. Kailyn and Javi In Happier Times Even after their divorce, Kailyn and Javi briefly managed to maintain an amicable co-parenting relationship. Sadly, those days are long over… 2. Cheating Rumors Allegations of infidelity led to the dissolution of Kail and Javi’s marriage, and it seems those suspicions are still preventing the former couple from reaching a place where they can be civil with one another. 3. Another Deployment Javi is soon to be headed overseas for another tour of duty with US Air Force. No doubt he and Kailyn would like to iron out their differences before he leaves, but it’s a task that may prove impossible. 4. Briana Drama Part of the problem, of course, is that Javi is currently dating Kailyn’s rival and Teen Mom 2 co-star, Briana DeJesus. 5. Boot Camp Blues Javi and Kailyn appear on the current season of Marriage Boot Camp, despite the fact that their marriage is long over. Their stated goal was to improve their co-parenting relationship, but that doesn’t appear to be happening. 6. The Truth Comes Out On tonight’s episode, Kailyn and Javi will both submit to lie detector tests. Needless to say, the interrogations did not go smoothly… View Slideshow
There’s more going on in Javi Marroquin’s life than being a father and banging Briana DeJesus . Javi is being deployed by the United States Air Force. That’s hard news for anyone, but especially for a parent. And, given Javi’s history, he has to worry about whether his relationship with Briana will survive. Javi Marroquin spoke about his deployment to RadarOnline . And it sounds like he was really blindsided. “I wasn’t expecting this at all.” Of course, the possibility of being deployed again is a reality with which many military families live. But that doesn’t make it any easier. It sounds like the news has Javi scrambling. “I’m trying to put everything together.” Remember, he’s a father. No matter how good at coparenting he might (sometimes) be, Javi has to think about his role as a father. Just knowing that Kailyn is a good, loving mother won’t make him miss Lincoln any less. Quite frankly, Javi also needs to worry about how he’ll handle being deployed again. But Javi tells RadarOnline that he has a real lifeline and source of comfort and stability this time around: Briana DeJesus. “She’s what’s keeping me together right now,” he says. That’s some hefty praise. Even before speaking to RadarOnline , Javi let his social media followers know that he was being deployed again by the USAF. First, Javi shared a Snapchat photo of Wendy’s. He wrote: “Eating whatever I want ’cause I’ll be missing this soon. #depressed” That could mean different things from different people — some people have “cheat days” that almost amount to binge eating. Coming from Javi, though, it sounded like the Air Force had come calling. And then he made it abundantly clear: He shared a document of “reporting instructions,” and wrote “deja vu.” Of course, Javi’s relationships don’t have the best track record when it comes to his deployments. He returned home from Qatar hoping to talk things out with Kailyn, as we’re sure that you recall. Instead, he found that she’d already moved on. While that’s totally her right (and they’d been fighting all of the time; honestly, any couple that’s quarreling that often doesn’t need to be together), we know that it had to be crushing for Javi. He and Kailyn Lowry are doing well with coparenting , mostly. (It might help if they didn’t get into social media arguments) But will his relatively new relationship with Briana DeJesus survive while he’s away? Well … we don’t know. Sometimes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. You see someone return and you know how much you love them. Sometimes, there’s an out-of-sight, out-of-mind element. Javi’s relationship with Briana is fundamentally different than his relationship with Kailyn. Briana and Kail are different people. And, as we said, his relationship with Briana is much newer. With Kailyn, they were past the honeymoon phase and definitely living in the real world and dealing with real struggles. Still, there’s no telling how their relationship will turn out. We won’t waste our hopes on that (one way or the other). We’ll just hope that Javi Marroquin stays safe while he’s deployed. We don’t want Lincoln to lose his father.

If the events of the past week have proven anything, it’s that Teen Mom 2 should be filmed 24/7 like the freakin’ Truman Show . Most reality series are already running out of steam by the time their eighth season wraps up, but thanks in part to the addition of Briana DeJesus, TM2 is just getting warmed up. Sadly, the show isn’t currently filming, so of all the wild recent events, only the stuff that took place at Saturday’s reunion show was caught on camera. Fortunately, the cast has done an admirable job of documenting the drama on social media. If you follow any of them on Twitter or Instagram, then you’ve probably already heard about David Eason drunkenly stabbing balloons and trying to fight Nathan Griffith. That’s good stuff, but if you ask us, the Kailyn Lowry-Briana DeJesus-Javi Marroquin situation is even more fascinating. Kailyn and Javi are about to embark on a book tour together, despite the fact that they finalized their divorce almost a year ago. Needless to say, the situation was already fraught with emotional peril, but things are even more complex thanks to rumors that Javi is dating Briana . There’s really no way to talk about this situation without sounding like Gretchen Wieners from Mean Girls , so please forgive us in advance: For starters, Briana and Kailyn used to be friends, even though Briana denies it now. Apparently, Kail was pissed about all the rumors that Briana has a thing for Javi because Lowry and DeJesus didn’t even talk at the reunion show. Afterward, Briana threw major shade on social media, tweeting that Jenelle Evans is the only cool Teen Mom , and posting a bunch of new pics of her and Javi. Marroquin apparently took this as a sign that he and Briana are officially dating, and he even went so far as to confirm the relationship rumors in a recent interview: “We are dating,” Javi told People magazine earlier this week. “We’ve been friends for a while and we weren’t in a rush.” But in her latest interview, Briana denies that she and Javi are a couple, and she basically tells Marroquin to slow his roll: “Nothing is going on,” DeJesus bluntly tells E! News. Adding to the speculation that she’s not seeking a relationship with Javi is a recent tweet of Briana’s that reads, “About to change my number and go ghost.” All of this begs the question–why was Briana acting as though she and Javi were together? Was she just messing with Kailyn? Is she really that petty? For the sake of our future entertainment, we hope the answer to both those questions is “yes.” Watch Teen Mom 2 online to keep up with all this craziness. The show just keeps getting better, y’all.

Considering the final documents were signed amost a year ago, you’d think Kailyn Lowry and Javi Marroquin’s divorce would be old news by now. But Kavi drama keeps making tabloid headlines, and for now at least, it seems Lowry and Marroquin aren’t too bothered by the continued interest in their relationship. In fact, Kailyn and Javi are releasing a pair of memoirs in which each will offer their take on what went wrong in the marriage. As part of their promotional duties, Kail and Javi have been offering some of their most candid interviews to date. In the past week alone, we’ve Javi has revealed he’s nervous about traveling with Kailyn during their upcoming book tour, as well as that he once considered the possibility of a reconciliation, but now believes that ship has sailed. Now it’s Kailyns turn to spill the tea, and she certainly didn’t disappoint while opening up today on Olivia Caridi’s Mouthing Off podcast. In a revealing interview, Kailyn revealed that she believes Javi was not completely honest with her in the early days of their relationship. Lowry says she and Javi met while she was working at a Delaware mall. She had already achieved a measure of fame, but Marroquin insisted he didn’t know he she was. “Apparently he knew who I was and acted like he had no idea,” Lowry said. “Javi had me fooled. He actually knew who I was and pretended he didn’t know.” Kail says she didn’t learn the truth until eight months into their relationship, and by that time, she had already fallen for Javi. Asked by Caridi if she believes Marroquin used her to attain fame, Kailyn replied: “Oh absolutely. 100 percent. But I don’t think that he could have ever predicted that he would have fallen in love with me like the way that we were together.” Kailyn says that while she was in love with Javi at one point, her feelings had faded by the time she got pregnant with their son, Lincoln. Lowry says that while she’s sure Javi is sad the relationship didn’t work out, she assumes he’s happy with all he gained from their time together. “It couldn’t have worked out better for him,” she tells Caridi. In a statement issued to Radar Online, Javi was indignant about Kailyn’s remarks: View Slideshow: Kailyn Lowry: Did She Cheat on Javi Marroquin With Becky Hayter? “That’s crazy. I’m the only person that still has her back and she talks about me that way,” he told the outlet. Interestingly, he did not deny using Kailyn to help boost his own public profile. Watch Teen Mom 2 online to relive Kailyn and Javi’s tumultuous time together.
Kailyn Lowry is proud of the mom she’s become, and says critics’ obsession with the fact that her kids each have a different dad is unfortunate. The Teen Mom 2 cast member loves her life, her accomplishments, and her kids of course, and any attempt to detract from that is unfounded. Kailyn’s oldest son, Isaac Elliot Rivera, 7, was born to Lowry and her then-boyfriend, Jo Rivera, in her 16 & Pregnant days of 2010. Then came Lincoln Marshall Marroquin, 3, with her then-husband Javi Marroquin, whom she married in 2013 and divorced last year. Finally, Kail’s newest child, who still has yet to be named beyond “Baby Lo,” was born this summer, from her relationship with Chris Lopez. Their relationship status is hard to pin down . Lowry says that this is unconventional, to be sure, but “it’s hard because it’s not celebrated when there are three people, three baby dads.” “People have a hard time understanding it. Yeah, I’m bad at relationships, but I don’t think that makes me any less of a mother.” Lowry tells Hollywood Life that all she can do is be her best as a mom every day, and, quite frankly, everything else is noise . And f–k that noise. “It’s weird because nobody [among] my immediate friends and family, that’s not the first thing they think of. ‘Oh, three baby dads,'” she says. “That’s more of a public thing, I feel like. It’s one more thing they can criticize me for. Overall, I take care of my kids.” “I get along with Chris, I get along with Jo … I try my best to get along with Javi. That’s the best that I can do!” It’s true that Kailyn gets so much hate relative to anything she’s actually done wrong – if you can even say failed romances are “wrong.” Having three fathers for her three kids might not be ideal in some ways, and she’s made mistakes in how she’s handled some things. Still, who hasn’t made mistakes, and by and large, her family seems to be thriving in its unique way … so why give Kail a hard time? Kailyn does admit that three dads in the picture means a lot of new dynamics to balance and the challenge of everyone getting along. Which they are! For the most part. “Javi and Jo get along. Chris and Jo get along, so… it makes it a lot easier for me when everyone’s getting along,” Kailyn said. “My relationship with all three of them I would say with Javi is more of a rollercoaster. I get along with Chris, I get along with Jo.” “That’s how it works right now.” Javi and Kailyn are both strong personalities who have butted heads often, sometimes borderline angrily. But both love their son. In the end, we have faith that will carry the day. As for baby dad number three, Kailyn is still figuring out “what works” for her and Chris Lopez, and that shifts like the wind blows. The two of them just welcomed Baby Lo a few weeks prior, and as we said above, their romantic status is ever-changing and vague. “We don’t live together right now,” Kailyn said. “It’s hard to find a balance when he’s working and going to school, and I’m working and doing my thing with the other two boys.” “It’s a little bit different of a dynamic than the other two, but we’re trying to figure out what works for us,” Lowry told the website. Kail also shared that she is “done” with children … though she did say that when she divorced Javi, and look what happened. “I’m done with baby daddies, I’m done with kids … I would like to have a girl, but I’m not going to go out of my way to try and have a girl.” “I’m good with the three right now!” “I wish I could say that I got better at relationships. That’s clear that’s not a thing for me. I’m learning how to co-parent the best I can.” View Slideshow: Teen Mom & Teen Mom 2: The Complete Babies and Children Guide! “Being on TV,” she says, “gives me the opportunity to look back and see what I’ve done wrong and change it for the future.” We wish her and all three of the guys – who we hope continue to be good fathers and partners to Kailyn – only the best.
