Teen Mom’s Catelynn Lowell Addresses Rumors Tyler Baltierra Forced Her to Place Daughter for Adoption

Catelynn Lowell is pushing back on this narrative about her relationship with Tyler Baltierra. 

Amid the Teen Mom: The Next Chapter’s second season, the 33-year-old slammed rumors that she had placed daughter Carly—whom she welcomed with Tyler in 2009—into adoptive care due to pressure from her now-husband. 

“That’s what blows my mind, for people to think that I would choose a man over my child,” Catelynn said during the March 12 episode of the Cate & Ty: Break it Down podcast. “But then again for them to just think that you have no emotions or sadness or sorrow or any want.”

Tyler, who went on to welcome daughters Nova, 10, Vaeda, 5, and Rya, 3, with his wife, interjected similarly pushing back, “Or that I would give you some ultimatum? That’s insane.”

“That’s sick,” Catelynn agreed. “And then for me to continue to stay with you over all these years and have other girls. I always say if you guys really were to think that I’m that person, that’s disgusting because I teach my girls completely opposite. And they know that.”
