It goes without saying that a lot of weird stuff can go down between two people together
for more than a decade, especially when MTV cameras are involved.
Out of all the Teen Mom OG stars, Tyler Baltierra and Catelynn Lowell are the only couple as
of June 2018 who are still together.
As strong as their relationship might seem, these two have had their fair share of ups
and downs.
From body-shaming to social media antics, here are some of the strange things about
Catelynn Lowell's relationship with Tyler Baltierra.
Body-shaming
If you've followed Lowell's story throughout the years, you probably already know that
she's struggled with self-esteem issues.
"I wouldn't blame Tyler, like seriously if you wanted to just divorce me."
According to Hollywood Life, after gaining about 20 pounds within the first few months
of being pregnant with her daughter Nova, Lowell found it difficult to lose the weight.
Still, Baltierra thought she should get fit ASAP.
During a conversation about Lowell potentially joining Weight Watchers, Baltierra interrupted
to point out the size of his wife's quesadilla.
"Obviously, I don't want no heifer for a wife."
Unsurprisingly, Baltierra received a lot of flak for his offensive remarks.
Things got so bad, in fact, that he apologized publicly, tweeting,
"Currently in therapy to work on my delivery of messages & opinions.
Yes I know I'm a prick but I admit it instead of defend it #ImAnA--hole."
Awkward family ties
One of the oddest things about Lowell's relationship is that her mom, April Brockmiller, was married
to Baltierra's dad, Butch Baltierra.
As awkward as it may be that Lowell and Baltierra were step-siblings, it's important to note
that they were together first, and they were the ones who introduce their parents to each
other.
Brockmiller and Butch decided to tie the knot in 2009, but their relationship was anything
but smooth.
According to People magazine, the pair's union was pretty much doomed from the start, from
violent fights to issues with drug addiction.
In November 2013, Brockmiller filed for divorce from Butch while he was in prison.
The good news for Baltierra and Lowell is that this breakup means they are no longer
step-siblings.
Social media antics
Although Lowell has lashed out at fans for creating rumors about her life, she appears
to play a key role in the drama.
When Lowell changed her Instagram name from "Catelynn Baltierra" back to "Catelynn Lowell"
in May 2018, the surprising move sparked a frenzy among fans who theorized Lowell and
Baltierra were done.
But a few weeks after the random change, Lowell took to Instagram to send a sarcastic message
shutting down the rumors, captioning her photo with:
"But we are getting a divorce.
#nothingcanstopus."
Not safe for work
It's one thing to spice things up in a relationship by privately sharing risqué photos with each
other, but Lowell apparently has no problem sharing sexy shots of Baltierra with millions
of followers.
In March 2018, Lowell tweeted a shot of Baltierra in a towel, captioned:
"NuffSaid [with the hashtags] #myman #gethome [and] #sexy"
Some fans found it odd that Lowell would share a private photo of her spouse with the world.
One user wrote,
"That is inappropriate for the world to see when you're married.
You're obviously looking for attention from others."
Baltierra, however, found nothing strange about Lowell's post, responding,
"Better watch out Babe, people are SUPER sensitive these days with their conservative opinions
about us flirting on social media LMAO!
It must be very uncomfortable walking around everyday with that stick up their asses.
LOVE YOU!"
Cheating jokes
Cheating allegations, whether true or not, are no laughing matter.
However, Baltierra has no qualms about downplaying rumors of marital discord with jokes.
According to In Touch, after a fan on Twitter asked how many times Baltierra cheated on
Lowell, he responded,
"More times than I could count."
If you ask the couple's followers, his joke wasn't so funny.
One user posted in a Teen Mom OG subreddit,
"Why make a joke out of cheating, knowing that Catelynn is already feeling insecure
and will most likely be upset by the comment?"
To be fair, Lowell also cracks jokes about the allegations.
Following a period of cheating rumors, she captioned an Instagram photo of a delicious
looking cocktail,
"Whelp, since he's out cheating."
Unbalanced?
Some fans have pointed out that Lowell and Baltierra's relationship might be unbalanced.
According to users of the Teen Mom OG subreddit, the evidence centers around the fact that
Baltierra seems to do the heavy lifting when it comes to the couple's responsibilities,
like raising Nova, household chores, and handling business.
What viewers might not realize, however, is that Lowell's mental health issues often prevent
her from helping out at home and being there for Baltierra, like when she checked herself
into an Arizona-based outpatient facility in November 2017 to deal with her dark thoughts.
It's also important to note that Baltierra is supportive of Lowell, and encouraged her
to return to treatment in January 2018.
Lowell's well-being is a priority, and it's great to see that Baltierra is understanding.
