SURPRISE! Leah Messer’s boyfriend, Jaylan Mobley, made his long-awaited television debut on the season premiere of Teen Mom Family Reunion Tuesday night.
The 25-year-old cyber officer surprised Leah when he crept up behind her during a cast trip.
Leah seemed happy to see him, as she greeted him with a big smile and warm hug.
The PDA comes as fans continue to speculate that the reality star may be pregnant.
But Leah, 29, is standing by her statement that the rumors are just internet chatter.
“Listen, there’s only so many times you can say that somebody’s pregnant,” Leah told Headliner Chicago.
She joked that Jaylan tells her to “ignore” the comments that point out a potential baby bump, as she countered with a smile: “No, I want to let them know, I was bloated last week. That was not okay!”
Rumors of a baby bump only intensified after Leah shared pics from a sexy New Year’s Eve photoshoot with her boyfriend on Instagram.
The TV personality posted a series of snaps from the pair’s evening with friends as they rang in the new year.
In the new pics, the lovebirds packed on the PDA as they held each other close in intimate positions, like Jaylan’s hand on her thigh as she pushed him against the wall.
In others, they kissed to celebrate entering 2022 with one another and snuggled together on the couch.
Some fans were more focused on what the two might be celebrating a little later into 2022, as they speculated that Leah’s pregnant after thinking they spotted a bulging belly.
In an attempt to silence the chatter once and for all, Leah shared an Instagram Story showing a screenshot of her period and pregnancy tracker.
The image appeared to show that she was on the sixth day of her period and that her chances of becoming pregnant were “low.”
The Teen Mom star captioned the post: “Some of y’all’s comments are disrespectful af!! SMH.”
It was a night full of surprises on the Family Reunion debut.
Among the biggest shocks was Ashley Jones revelation she married longtime beau Bar Smith, but confessed the relationship is ‘rocky’.
The pair sparked marriage speculation in December, several months after they called off their engagement.
Co-stars were quick to notice a ring on Ashley’s wedding ring finger after the ladies arrived on the set.
Cheyenne Floyd sat down with her to get to the bottom of things, asking: “Let me look at your hand.
Ashley responds: “It’s what the f**k ever,” which seemed to confuse Cheyenne who asked, “You guys came together. Are you not together?”
Ashley reveals: “We’re married,” which further shocked Cheyenne.
She went on to explain: “We’re married but not together,” adding that she “decided this.”
“I have a lot of anger built up with Bar. I speak one language, he speaks another and we don’t hear each other,” Ashley said on the show, which flashed to an old Teen Mom episode featuring a blowup between them.
Although Ashley claimed to be broken up with her husband, she said in a confessional that she’s hopeful they can “get some tools to be able to speak to each other in the same language.”
Jade Cline dropped another bombshell when she broke down in tears and admitted her baby daddy Sean Austin checked himself into rehab again.
While talking to her fellow Teen Mom stars, Jade admitted: “My kid’s dad is in the same rehab facility, I guess, that one of his family member’s went to.”
She added: “He’s been there for about a month and a half and he comes back in like two and a half months.”
Clips followed of Sean’s struggle with addiction in the past, which included a Teen Mom 2 scene in which Jade explained he punched a hole through a window.
Jade further opened up about the situation in a confessional, stating: “I will always love Sean. I care about him. We have a child. We’ve known each other for so long.”
She continued: “I feel like he’s been depressed for a really long time and lacking a lot of self confidence and having a lot of issues that he’s finally working through.”
