Last week, a preview for the new season of Teen Mom featured a moment that surprised many fans of the long-running MTV reality series. Tyler Baltierra to Catelynn Lowell: You’re Not Ready to Be a Mom! In the clip above, Tyler Baltierra fat-shames Catelynn Lowell , slamming his wife over the size of her meal moments after she stated that she’d like to rejoin Weight Watchers. So it’s not like Catelynn’s weight was a problem and she didn’t realize it. And considering Catelynn went to rehab for emotional issues shortly after the scene was filmed, it’s not like she was in such a stable place that such hurtful comments rolled right off her back. Nevertheless, Tyler is reacting to the situation in the fashion beloved by reality stars who have said something stupid on camera: Basically his response to pissed off fans is, Hey, I know I’ve spent my adult life cashing in on your interest in my personal life, but now that the attention has turned negative, can you stop? On Saturday, Baltierra revealed that he’s in therapy learning how to refrain from making the types of remarks he made, because apparently that’s the sort of thing one has to learn in therapy. Shortly thereafter, however, Baltierra had a message to fans who were upset by his remarks: “When your [sic] with someone for over 10 yrs your [sic] able to speak to each other openly & honestly. That’s how we communicate,” Baltierra tweeted. “We aren’t afraid to hurt each other’s feelings, because we know how strong our love for each other is> ” If that explanation is a bit TL;DR for you, it can basically be summed up as: “STFU, people who made me famous. That’s how I ‘communicate’ with my wife.” We initially thought therapy was a bit of an overreaction, but now we’re thinking Tyler could benefit from working on his communication skills.
