Teen Mom star Kailyn Lowry SPLITS from fiancé amid 'unique' challenges co-parenting with four baby daddies
Kailyn Lowry revealed she has split from her fiancé Elijah Scott less than a year after announcing their engagement to the world. While reflecting on the challenges of co-parenting with four baby daddies, the 33-year-old Teen Mom alum appeared to confirm her newly single status. During her interview with Lala Kent on her Give Them Lala podcast last week, the mom-of-seven explained she takes 'a lot of' heat for leaving her 'kids' dads.' 'I left all of them because I, to some degree, take no s**t,' she said. 'There are a lot of unique circumstances in our family because I do have four fathers to my children. I'm neighbors with one of them.' The revelation about her broken engagement came after Kent asked which father Lowry lived near. 'Elijah,' she responded, seemingly indicating that they were living separately. The Daily Mail has reached out to Lowry's rep for comment, but has not heard back at this time. The former couple welcomed fraternal twins Verse and Valley in late 2023 and share a two-year-old son, named Rio. Additionally, she shares her first child, son Elliott, with her high school sweetheart, Jo Rivera, her son, Lincoln, with ex-husband Javi Marroquin, as well as two more sons, Lux and Creed, with ex Chris Lopez. Last August, Lowry confirmed Scott popped the question after being asked about the diamond ring on her left finger while appearing on her Coffee Convos Podcast. After her cohost Lindsie Chrisley asked if she had tied the knot or not, the reality star explained she was 'not married.' 'This is the ring that they give you before you get married,' she said. Lowry went on to reveal that Scott had asked her to get hitched before, but she didn't take the proposals 'seriously' since they were not accompanied by a ring. 'I was just like, "We'll play this by ear - I'll let you know, if you have a ring one day, we'll reevaluate" - and then one day he just showed up with a ring,' Lowry said. The TV personality also revealed that the proposal caught her off guard as he asked while she was in the bathroom getting ready to go out. Lowry said that Scott didn't drop to one knee when popping the question to her: 'We've both been married already, so we both don't care about the whole "get on one knee and make it all romantic and stuff," because that's just not how we are.' At the time, Lowry noted that she prefers to not be 'the center of attention' and 'would have been happier if [Scott] had left the ring on the table and walked out.' Lowry was previously engaged and married to Marroquin from 2012-2017, and Scott walked down the aisle with his ex-wife Kayla Brooke in 2018, before calling it quits just two years later. Although it is unclear why she and Scott ended their romance, Lowry praised his 'cool, calm and collected' demeanor in an interview last year. 'I've never experienced that in my entire life,' Lowry told Us Weekly. 'He's an angel on this earth, and I don't know what I did to deserve him.' Lowry said that her fiancé has a can-do mentality of 'nothing is too big of a problem' for them, which is 'really different' from her past partners. Lowry said that Scott has 'seamlessly' blended in with her family, saying, 'My kids love him, which is so - I just have never really seen that.' She added: 'Isaac [now Elliott] and Elijah are best friends. If Elijah is not at a game for Lincoln, Lincoln's like, "Where is Elijah?" Not even looking for me, looking for him. 'And then Lux and Creed love him because they just jump all over him. They think he's, like, the cool dad. Maybe not their dad, but the cool dad.'

Teen Mom star Kailyn Lowry's son, 15, comes out and reveals why he changed his name to Elliott
Teen Mom alum Kailyn Lowry is celebrating a major milestone with her eldest son, who came out as gay and revealed he now goes by a new name during the latest episode of her Barely Famous podcast. The 33-year-old reality star invited her 15-year-old, whom she shares with ex Jo Rivera, to co-host Friday's episode and give an update on his life. 'It's very important to me because I feel like growing up on TV, it's hard to show who you really are when a camera is in front of you all the time,' the teen said. 'It's almost like you have a TV face. It's harder to be yourself and to be more comfortable.' He went on to explain that he changed his name after no longer feeling connected to his birth name. 'I started going by Elliott because at some point, I wasn't happy with my first name,' he said. 'It just doesn't feel like me.' Teen Mom alum Kailyn Lowry is celebrating a major milestone with her eldest son, who came out as gay and revealed he now goes by a new name during the latest episode of her Barely Famous podcast The 33-year-old reality star invited her 15-year-old, whom she shares with ex Jo Rivera, to co-host Friday's episode and give an update on his life Lowry noted that she believes the switch was partly an effort to separate from the version of himself viewers saw on MTV, and Elliott agreed that was true. He then confirmed he identifies as gay. Overcome with emotion, Lowry broke down in tears as she praised her son's courage, saying she was 'so proud' of him for embracing his identity and calling it a 'brave thing to do.' Her son added, "I'm sick of people coming up with their own stories and putting things in their own words and things coming out on other people's terms about me, because my life isn't entertainment for other people. 'My life is my life and I can do what I want with it. And for people to take things from my life, like personal stuff, is not okay. 'If I want to share it, I should share that on my own terms.' Kailyn also shares son Lincoln, 11, with ex Javi Marroquin; sons Lux, 7, and Creed, 4, with ex Chris Lopez; and son Rio, 2, with fiancé Elijah Scott. In late 2023, she also welcomed twins Verse and Valley with Scott. Overcome with emotion, Lowry broke down in tears as she praised her son's courage, saying she was 'so proud' of him for embracing his identity and calling it a 'brave thing to do' The podcast reveal comes after Kailyn showed off her slimmed down frame with bikini snaps after undergoing a breast reduction. Back in December Lowry revealed she had gotten a breast reduction just before Christmas Eve. She used her Instagram Story to share various post-op selfies as she tracked her recovery and asked fans if they wanted further content detailing her operation. Lowry's surgery came months after she revealed she was told she needed to lose weight in order to be eligible for a breast augmentation. On her Almost Famous podcast in May she said: 'I want to get a boob job, right? I call around. I'm making these consultations to get a boob job. You know what they told me? They told me I need to lose 40 pounds.' She reiterated, 'So 40 or 50 pounds, more like 50 but maybe get away with 40 pounds, before they can even operate on me.' Reflecting on the moment, the former MTV star admitted she was overcome with emotion, 'sobbing' on the phone with a doctor's office as she considered a 'breast reduction, implants [or] lift.' 'I don't even know if I can get my double chin done,' she noted. After welcoming her twins in late 2023, Kailyn admitted she wanted to try the popular weight loss drug Ozempic to drop weight quick to return to her pre-baby body. 'How hard it is to lose weight as an adult, f**k my life. I'm scared,' she admitted on her Baby Mamas No Drama podcast in January 2024. 'I was in the gym five days a week. If you're going to get plastic surgery you have to maintain it.'
