Cheyenne Floyd is just weeks away from turning 26, which puts her on par with a number of Teen Mom OG stars. Unlike her new co-stars, however, Cheyenne did not actually become a mother as a teenager. She became a mother when she was … 23. Now, she is addressing the backlash about that, and explaining why fans will agree that Cheyenne belongs on the show . Speaking to Us Weekly , Cheyenne Floyd says that part of the reason that people are bristling at her casting is simple semantics. “I think that a lot of people are stuck on the word,” Cheyenne laments. That word, of course, being teen . She’s a grown woman who was never a teenage parent who is now getting paid a lot of money to appear on Teen Mom OG . Cheyenne admits that, but says: “and at the end of the day I’m still young mom.” “I still have the same struggles,” Cheyenne explains. “And I’m still learning just like everyone else.” “I don’t think 23 is the ideal age to have a baby,” Cheyenne points out. It very rarely is. Your body might be at its healthiest, but even if you’re mega-rich, you’re still young and living your life. Also, your brain isn’t quite done maturing. “She was unplanned,” Cheyenne says of her young daughter. “So in other ways, other than me not being a teen, I have different things that you can relate.” Most viewers of Teen Mom OG are not, themselves, teenage mothers and never were. “So instead of me screaming all day long that I’m not a teen mom,” Cheyenne concludes. “I’d rather just talk about things that I am.” Cheyenne shares that fans and viewers can expect to learn a lot about her and her baby daddy, Cory Wharton. “Prior to doing Teen Mom , we kept everything to ourselves as far as what happened,” Cheyenne says. “So it’s going to be really interesting to see what the viewers think after they find out.” That … will depend upon what viewers find out, we suppose. “We’re good,” Cheyenne says of their relationship as co-parents. “We’re best friends.” “We work together with everything and put everything into Ryder,” she adds. “So we have a good relationship.” “They have a different kind review about Cory,” she says of doubtful fans. “And,” Cheyenne continues. “They haven’t seen me on TV since I did The Challenge and I literally had the baby right after.” Cheyenne is definitely not overexposed, that’s true. “So it will be interesting to see what they think about is his parents,” she says. “And,” Cheyenne concludes. “We’re excited to show our healthy coparenting relationship.” Cheyenne is controversial for more than just that. See, people accused her of racism due to some old tweets that resurfaced when her casting news broke. Tweets attributed to Cheyenne expressed a desire to kill white people and particularly to kill white babies, and also said something about being a nazi. While anti-white sentiments aren’t necessarily racism (in that they’re not systemic and function as empty words, which is not true for genuine racism), those tweets were disturbing. Cheyenne promises that she’s not racist and says that she shared the Twitter account with others. More importantly, the heinous tweets were made years ago. Will she be able to overcome this baggage and endear herself to fans? We’ll find out in October. View Slideshow: Teen Mom OGs Dish on Newbies: What Do They Think of Bristol and Cheyenne?
