Tyler Baltierra: I Suffer From Bipolar Disorder

Posted on April 26, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For much of the past two years, Catelynn Lowell’s struggle with mental illness has been documented by Teen Mom OG camera crews. Lowell has been commended for her bravery in being so honest about her difficulties, and many have heaped praise on her husband, Tyler Baltierra, for his endless support of his struggling wife. Now, Tyler is opening up about his own mental health issues, and like Catelynn, he’s sharing details about his battle in hopes of diminishing damaging stigmas encouraging fans to seek help when they need it. Baltierra revealed on Twitter this week that he’s been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. In a series of candid tweets, Tyler revealed that he initially planned to keep his diagnosis a secret, but was encouraged by his wife to go public with his struggle. “Honestly, I wasn’t even planning on releasing that info, but once Cate mentioned about my recent diagnosis, I figured “what the hell!?” the 26-year-old tweeted. “Like why am I so against telling anyone!? It’s actually been a little easier to digest since I have been talking about it more,” he added. Asked if he plans to seek a pharmaceutical solution, Baltierra reveals that he has not yet decided on a course of treatment: “Well tbh it’s still so new to me,” he wrote. “So, I’ve been doing non-stop research on the diagnosis, the different remedies to combat symptoms, & how to better understand it. I did refuse medication, but only because I wanted to try all of the natural remedies first. It’s a journey,” It seems the diagnosis did not come as a total shock to Tyler, who has long suspected he may suffer from a mental illness. “He mentioned in the past that he thought that maybe he suffered from bipolar disorder, but he wasn’t sure,” a source explained to Radar Online. “He’s talked about his mood going from super funny and goofy, which he’s known for, to his depressive phases. That was a red flag for him.” It’s unclear if Tyler’s mental illness will be addressed on future episodes of Teen Mom OG . But for now, Baltierra is doing his fans a great service by opening up about his condition on social media. Watch Teen Mom OG online for more on Tyler and Catelynn’s road to greater mental health.

Tyler Baltierra: Is He Going to Rehab Next?!

Posted on April 9, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Tyler Baltierra has struggled with his mental health for a long, long time. Catelynn Lowell has problems of her own too, of course, and there's definitely a focus on hers on Teen Mom OG, but fans will know that Tyler hasn't had it easy, either. He and Catelynn both grew up in the same kind of toxic environment, after all, and they both had a very hard time after placing their daughter for adoption when they were teenagers. For the past few months, Tyler has been becoming more and more vocal about how bad things have gotten for him. But are they so bad that he'll head off to a treatment center like Catelynn did? 1. A Rough Beginning Tyler has always seemed close to his mother, Kim, but we can’t really say the same for his father. Butch Baltierra has been in and out of prison for Tyler’s entire life, and if he hasn’t been in prison, he’s been on some kind of probation. 2. The Truth Hurts Butch even told Tyler once that he loved cocaine more than he loved him. Can you even imagine how damaging that must have been for Tyler? 3. A Suicide Attempt An especially heartbreaking little tidbit about Tyler was that he tried to commit suicide when he was only 12 years old. This is very dark, but he said that he hung himself, and when he didn’t die immediately he began having second thoughts and was able to get himself free from the noose. 4. Just Heartbreaking He also met Catelynn when he was 12, and the two began dating. A few years later, she became pregnant, and they made the difficult decision to place the child for adoption so that she would have a better life than they could provide for her. 5. Too, Too Sad In what many people consider to be the most heartbreaking moment on all of Teen Mom, Tyler and Catelynn both cried after their first daughter was born, and they begged nurses to take her away so they didn’t become too attached. 6. After Carly In the years after being 16 and Pregnant, Catelynn and Tyler had many ups and downs. They got engaged, they got un-engaged, they nearly broke up after she lied to him about some other guy she’d been talking to. They started jobs, they talked about career goals, he went to New Orleans for a while to try to be an actor. View Slideshow

Catelynn Lowell to Tyler Baltierra: Why Don’t You Just Divorce Me?!

Posted on April 7, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Over the course of the past year, Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra have endured challenges that would put any marriage to the test. Catelynn suffered a miscarriage that exacerbated existing mental health problems for both her and Tyler. Lowell checked into rehab three times, and while she says the treatment helped, there's no quick fix for mental illness. Now, she and Tyler are coping with the challenges of addressing their ailments while still attending to the needs of their daughter – and their marriage. And as Teen Mom OG fans were reminded this week, it hasn't been an easy process: 1. Happier Times Despite their painful pasts, Catelynn and Tyler were regarded as one of the Teen Mom franchise’s most stable couples for several years. Unfortunately, the Baltierras have fallen on hard times in recent months. 2. Catelynn’s Heartbreak Last year, Catelynn suffered a miscarriage after months of trying to conceive. The tragic loss sent her into a downward spiral that resulted in multiple hosptalizations. 3. Suicidal Ideation At one point, Catelynn checked herself in for treatment after telling fans she had been contemplating suicide. In the months since, she’s become a role model for young people struggling with mental illness. 4. Tyler Steps Up Catelynn’s husband has been widely praised for supporting her emotionally and assuming more parenting duties during this difficult time, despite struggling with mental health issues of his own. 5. Ups and Downs The Baltierras are currently working together to climb out of a very deep pit. But as the latest Teen Mom OG preview reminds us the process of battling mental illness is a lengthy one with many ups and downs. 6. A Difficult Admission “It’s super hard for me to tell you this thing so keep an open mind,” Catelynn told Tyler in the clip. “I started having really bad anxiety in the mornings. I guess I’ve just been hiding it.” View Slideshow

Catelynn Lowell Update: How is She Doing in Rehab?

Posted on February 18, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Catelynn Lowell has been back in rehab for about a month now — and good for her, right? If you’ve been keeping up with this whole sad story, you know that she’s currently on her second rehab stay in the past three months, and her third in the past two years. The first time she went to a treatment center, back in 2016, the issue was a pretty severe case of postpartum depression she’d been dealing with since giving birth to her daughter a year before. The second time was in November, when she checked into the same treatment center after admitting that she’d been struggling with some suicidal thoughts . She did check out early that time because she reportedly felt guilty at the prospect of being away from her little girl for the holidays. But thankfully, she quickly realized that her mental health was more important than Christmas, and also that she simply wasn’t ready to be home yet. So she went back, completed her six weeks of treatment, then went back home. Then just a few weeks later, Catelynn  made the tough decision to go back again for another six weeks, this time to work through some of her childhood trauma. She also said she needed to get some issues with her medications sorted out. Unlike last time, she’s been silent on social media, which is definitely for the best. During her last stay, she was on Twitter a bit, even taking the time to make fun of Farrah Abraham, which didn’t seem like the best way for her to spend her time there. While it’s good that she’s focusing so hard on her issues, we’d be lying if we said we weren’t wondering about how she’s been doing. But don’t worry — Tyler’s got us covered! Last weekend, Tyler said that he and Nova would be away all week at Catelynn’s facility, doing family therapy together — or at least he would be involved with the therapy, it wasn’t clear what exactly Nova would be getting into. He predicted that it would be a tough week for everyone, and it’s easy to understand why. But no matter how tough things were, Tyler’s love for Catelynn is just as strong as ever. In one of his customary sappy, sweet Instagram posts, he shared this adorable photo of himself with Cate, and in the caption, he wrote that “Seeing this gorgeous woman & all the work she has done has given me such hope, a feeling of peace, and unconditional love that is hard to explain with words.” “It was a very emotionally intense Family Week Program, but I know that our love & commitment towards each other will persevere through anything this life throws our way.” “I’m so proud of you Babe,” he added, “and I can’t wait until you finally come home so I can just hug you & hold you for as long as I want.” “You are worthy…You are strong…You are beautiful…You are loved! Thank you for not giving up on your life.” He also threw in hashtags like “my babe,” “my wife,” and “soulmate,” just in case your heart wasn’t touched enough already. A little while later, Tyler shared a couple more photos, this time explaining that “Marriage & relationships aren’t always sunshine & rainbows.” “I believe love begins as a feeling, but evolves into a choice. A choice to sacrifice for that person, a choice of dedicated commitment to one another & understanding the selfless acts that are required from both to maintain serenity.” How darling is that? Cate shared one of the photos too, and she captioned hers “SO HAPPY I got to see you today!!! Until next time my love!” It’s not much to go on, but she does sound happy, and in the photos she actually looks pretty radiant. Here’s hoping that she’s getting the help she needs, and that soon she’ll be able to go home, happier and healthier than ever! View Slideshow: Teen Mom Couples: RANKED From Worst to First!

Tyler Baltierra: Cheating Allegations Resurface Following Tearful Confession

Posted on February 7, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Last night, Tyler Baltierra posted an Instagram video that’s earned him a good deal of praise from Teen Mom OG fans. In the clip, Tyler comes clean about struggling with mental illness and admits that he’s going through a challenging time. Tyler Baltierra Talks Mental Illness Baltierra doesn’t go into much detail with regard to the nature of his difficulties, and now, some Teen Mom OG fans believe there’s good reason for that. Ever since Catelynn Lowell checked into rehab to be treated for her own mental health issues, rumors that Tyler is cheating on his wife have been spreading like wildfire on social media. For reasons that aren’t entirely clear, many TMOG obsessives believe that last night’s tearful message is a prelude to a cheating confession. A source tells Radar Online that Tyler is well aware of the infidelity rumors and he’s “really upset” and “pissed” that fans are making a hard time for his family that much more difficult. “He said ever since Cate has been in rehab, the rumors have started because he’s out doing things on his own, and people don’t seem to like that,” the source tells Radar. “He said, ‘It’s like everyone wants me to sit on my ass depressed until she comes home. I have to work on myself too. I have things to get done, for us.'” According to the insider, a frustrated Baltierra added: “It’s okay for me to have a life. I can’t even go to a damn concert and say hi to people without cheating accusations. It’s stupid.” The source continues: “It’s been hard on him. He misses her. He’s just not used to this scrutiny.” Catelynn checked into rehab back in November after revealing to her Twitter followers that she’d been struggling with suicidal impulses. On January 17, she checked back into treatment and has remained there in the weeks since. Those who know Baltierra best say that while the separation has been hard on him, he would never cheat on Catelynn. Now if only he could convince his fans of that. Watch Teen Mom OG online to relive the difficult path the Baltierras have traveled together. View Slideshow: Catelynn Lowell Checks into Rehab AGAIN: What Happened?!

Javi Marroquin & Briana DeJesus: Back Together ALREADY?!

Posted on February 1, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

If you’re having a hard time keeping track of the relationship status of Javi Marroquin and Briana DeJesus, you’re certainly not alone. Javi and Briana started dating back in September, but for the first month or so, they claimed they were just friends. Then, last month, Javi and Briana broke up without warning. Now, as proof that these two are hell-bent on keeping us constantly confused, it seems that Javi and Bri are back together. Yes, Marroquin made an unexpected appearance on his ex’s Snapchat story last night. That may not sound like a big deal, but it’s important to note that Bri was scheduled for a plastic surgery procedure in Miami. Which means that Javi flew down from Delaware to be by her side in the hours before she went under the knife. That’s generally not the sort of thing an ex does, but then again Javi is no mere ex. He and Briana moved quickly from the start, even going so far as to meet one another’s kids and plan a future in which they’d both live in the same state. (Currently, Briana resides in Florida, while Javi remains in Delaware.) Interestingly, the couple reportedly broke up over Briana’s plastic surgery plans. Briana took to social media to reveal that Marroquin had broken up with her because he was upset that she planned to further alter her appearance. Javi claimed there were other factors, as well, but he didn’t deny that the planned procedure played a role in his decision. We guess he quickly got over his objection. And what does Kailyn Lowry have to say about the fact that her ex-husband is back together with her most bitter rival? Weirdly, it seems that she doesn’t care in the slightest … but it also seems like she knows something we don’t.  “Everything comes full circle,” Kail tweeted today. “I’ll wait for the cameras to spill the tea.” “The funny thing is, I keep my mouth shut long enough and every time i do the truth comes out just before i want to open my mouth,” she added. To drive her point home, she tagged Javi in a tweet reading: “I’ll wait for the cameras to spill the tea.” Kailyn concluded her cryptic mini-rant by tweeting: “I never want to get married again. But if i did, i would do a destination wedding.” We guess not all of Javi’s exes are eager to take him back. Watch Teen Mom 2 online for more on Javi and Briana’s tumultuous romance.

Catelynn Lowell: Struggling to Cope with Miscarriage

Posted on February 1, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Reports that Catelynn Lowell suffered a miscarriage are heartbreaking . The Teen Mom OG star has reportedly sought guidance from rehab, but fans are now for the first time seeing her joy upon learning that she’s pregnant on the show itself. Quite the contrast from her current grim reality. A new report reveals how Catelynn is coping … and that MTV’s crew has been instructed to walk on eggshells around her in this trying time. On the most recent episode of Teen Mom OG , Catelynn Lowell revealed that she was pregnant. She shared the news with Tyler Baltierra by putting Nova in a shirt that read “I’m going to be a big sister!” Kind of a weird way for Tyler to find out what was, at the time, good news. But a cute reveal nonetheless. Unfortunately, we already know that Catelynn Lowell suffered a miscarriage. That’s one of the pitfalls of reality television being filmed months in advance — you see sad life events coming in the distance like an oncoming train, but you can’t get off of the tracks. Catelynn has reportedly not taken this well. Everyone grieves differently. Everyone processes negative emotions differently. And no two people have the exact same response to the very personal tragedy of a miscarriage. Considering the childhood trauma that Catelynn has endured, it’s very understandable that she faces additional challenges when it comes to grief and loss. Grappling with suicidal thoughts, Catelynn Lowell checked herself into rehab for her own safety and well-being. As a reality star, Catelynn has to relive her suffering as her story unfolds for fans and viewers on Teen Mom OG . But there is still so much that fans don’t know. Obviously, many — though not all — know better than to directly ask Catelynn about her alleged miscarriage and about details of her stint in rehab. Keep in mind that a lot of this is unconfirmed, but based upon reports of what people who work on the show were told. Still, the story adds up. The pregnancy reports (now confirmed on the show), the confession of suicidal ideation, the rehab reports. This is all so sad. HollywoodLife reports on how Catelynn Lowell is coping and on the Teen Mom OG star’s current state of mind: “Catelynn is not ready for any of this to be public right now so it’s complicated.” Yes, it certainly is. “It’s such a delicate subject there’s a lot of mystery around what exactly happened and the crew has been told not to ask her about it and not to mention it to anyone so there is a lot of unknowns.” True. It’s good that the crew has been instructed to be sensitive at this time, but there has to be some unspoken awkwardness on set. Or so we imagine. “Obviously Catelynn is having a very hard time coping right now so the priority is just getting her stable again.” Absolutely. We all want to know, but Catelynn’s health and well-being come first. Still, the source ends on a positive note. “It’s a dark time, but she’s a fighter and she’ll make it through.” Considering all that Catelynn has already been through, we’re inclined to agree. Catelynn may have filmed rehab footage for Teen Mom OG . If so, we’ll all get front-row seats to an early and crucial stage of her recovery. But grief and mourning aren’t something that you can complete during a stint at an Arizona facility. Regardless of what makes it on camera, we expect that Catelynn will share her story with fans when she’s good and ready. View Slideshow: Catelynn Lowell Checks into Rehab AGAIN: What Happened?!

Kailyn Lowry FINALLY Responds to Javi Marroquin-Briana DeJesus Breakup!

Posted on January 18, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Earlier this week, the world learned that Javi Marroquin and Briana DeJesus had broken up after less than four months of dating. Rumored reasons for the split vary (Briana says Javi dumped her due to her desire for more plastic surgery; he insists that wasn't the case.), but at this point the breakup has been confirmed by both parties. The news wasn't terribly surprising as, frankly, no one expected these two to last this long. In fact, in the hours afrer word of the separation went public, many fans were less concerned with the “he said, she said” details, and more interested in what Javi's ex-wife, Kailyn Lowry, thought about the situation. Now, we finally have her long-awaited response… 1. Javiana At first, Javi and Briana’s relationship was viewed by fans as a revenge fling. But as the months went on, it began to look as though these two might be in it for the long haul. 2. Intensity in Two Cities From the start, Javi and Briana’s relationship faced a number of significant hurdles, not the least of which was the fact that he lives in Delaware, while she’s based out of Orlando. 3. The Kail Factor In the eyes of many TM2 fans, the biggest obstacle facing Bri and Javi was Marroquin’s ex-wife, Kailyn Lowry. But interestingly, Kail doesn’t seem to have stood in the couple’s way. In fact, she might be what brought them together. 4. Revenge Fantasy It’s widely believed that Bri began dating Javi in order to get under Kailyn’s skin. If that’s the case, it worked … at first. Kail seemed to lose interest in the situation after a few weeks and stopped publicly responding to news about the couple. Until now… 5. Kail’s Comments When news of Briana and Javi’s breakup went public fans were dying to know what Kailyn had to say. But there was a time when it looked like she would choose not to comment at all. 6. The Lowry Verdict Today, however, Kail has opened up in an interview published by Radar Online. And her followers might not like what she has to say… View Slideshow

Nick Viall and January Jones: Dating!

Posted on January 18, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

We guess that Nick Viall won’t be giving Corinne Olympios that second chance after all. As bizarre of a match as this is, Nick Viall is dating … January Jones. It’s Bachelor villain meets X-Men villain. And it looks like things got started not too long after Nick and Vanessa Grimaldi parted ways. Whoops. Getting a date with your celebrity crush isn’t easy. Usually , anyway. It helps if you’re also a celebrity. Specifically, if you’re a famously gorgeous celebrity actress who happens to gush about her own celeb crush while on television. Speaking to James Corden, January Jones revealed that she is a Bachelor superfan, saying: “You don’t know if you like him or if he’s a scumbag, but that’s why I’m attracted to him, maybe” Most people might not be turned on by being called a scumbag , even if they’re called attractive in the same breath. Nick Viall is clearly not most people. (It probably doesn’t hurt that January Jones is almost absurdly gorgeous on top of being a talented actress with roles on Mad Men and in X-Men First Class ) According to Page Six , that’s how Nick Viall and January Jones met. Well, it’s how they ended up going out for drinks. Their source claims: “They’ve been dating for about two months.” And it started with her confession to James Corden. “She went on ‘The Late Show’ in ­mid-November and said Nick had reached out to her and tried to get her to lip-sync battle with him.” That would have been interesting to see. Emphasis on would have. “She declined, but then he asked her out to a drink and she accepted. They’ve been seeing each other since.” Of course, if Nick Viall was already trying to do a lipsync battle with her, perhaps there was already some mutual attraction. But let’s take a look at this timeline. Back in August, Nick Viall and Vanessa Grimaldi broke up . If you’re still shocked when Bachelor couples break up … we don’t know what to tell you. Most of them do. It’s almost like reality television’s cameras don’t prompt people to be their most authentic, honest selves! (Who knew?!) Also, their split after 5 months was, by our count, Nick Viall’s  fourth failure to find love through the Bachelor franchise. Yikes. We can, at least, guess with reasonable confidence that pining after January Jones isn’t what ended things for Nick and Vanessa Grimaldi. It sounds like this new relationship started a couple of months later. Maybe this romance with January Jones is exactly what he needs to actually have a successful romance? Or maybe the Bachelor cameras weren’t the only problem, and Nick Viall was the common factor that ended things again and again. We hope not. Not for the notorious Bachelor villain’s sake, but for the sake of January Jones. She maybe wasn’t my first choice to play Emma Frost, but she’s great and she doesn’t deserve heartbreak. And let’s not forget that January Jones has a young son , folks. Dating gets more complicated when someone involved has kids.

Catelynn Lowell: Back In Rehab Just Weeks After Leaving Treatment

Posted on January 18, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Many Teen Mom OG fans are expressing concern on social media today in response to news that Catelynn Lowell will be checking back into rehab to seek further treatment for trauma and other emotional issues. But perhaps they shouldn’t be worried. After all, Catelynn doesn’t seem to be. Don’t get us wrong–we’re sure she’s sad to once again be parting ways with her daughter and husband for an extended period of time. But she also appears to appreciate this development for what it is–a chance to find a treatment plan that will work for her long-term, and allow her to be the best wife, mother, and entrepreneur she can be. “Well they say third time’s a charm,” Lowell tweeted. “I’m going back to treatment people for 6 weeks to work on my trauma and getting on different meds.” Addressing her husband, Tyler Baltierra, Catelynn added: “THANK YOU @TylerBaltierra I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!! You are my light!! And nova you are my sunshine #KeepTalkingMH.” The hashtag is part of a social media movement to encourage productive conversation about the challenges and stigmas surrounding mental illness. Shortly after her message was posted, Catelynn re-tweeted her TMOG co-star Amber Portwood, who wrote: “Sometimes it takes a strong man to pick up a broken woman.” Lowell checked into rehab back on November 17 after revealing to her Twitter followers that she had been struggling with suicidal thoughts. “I’m taking the time I need right now to take good care of myself,” she told Radar Online at the time. “On November 17, I thought of every way possible to commit suicide, from wrapping a belt around my neck to just running my car into an electric pole.” Catelynn left the facility on December 29 after six weeks of treatment. She left rehab with an extensive plan to maintain her mental health, informing her social media followers that she had quit drinking and using drugs , and would be pursuing a proactive treatment program. “She’s going to be doing their regular therapy, couple’s therapy and outpatient,” said a source close to Lowell. Of course, as anyone who’s ever struggled with mental health knows, recovery is rarely a straight path. We wish Catelynn all the best and hope that she’s able to find the help she needs. Watch Teen Mom OG online for more on Catelynn’s courageous struggle. View Slideshow: Catelynn Lowell Checks into Rehab AGAIN: What Happened?!
