He pops up on my feed whenever he posts because Mikayla reposts his videos and I will say I do find him quite funny

“Love you honey” is his claim to fame

I guess this confirms Jen will be in season 6 with them since there out there filming, not sure why she’d be in both shows though

Confirmed in the comments that they’re going to Italy. The caption said “going international this time”

I love that they can now do international trips for the show without worrying about Taylor not being allowed out of the country (her probation is over now but she’s obviously not in season 6 anyway)

Hopefully we get to see them do some fun activities because they’ve cut all of the group activities from the other trips

Being mad someone unfollowed you and then starting a hate campaign against her is crazy 😭 she probably just wanted to have clear boundaries while starting a new relationship

And I remember the cheating thing being cleared up with Chase essentially saying he took Mason on a double date post-breakup and that there was no overlap with Layla. I’m sure Layla later said everything was fine.

I think it’s kinda crazy that she does feel she’s in the middle of it given there’s clearly one side at fault. Even if Mikayla has done something horrible to Jessi that we just haven’t seen yet (which I think Jessi has been alluding to in her comments) Jessi is still wrong.

I would hate to have a best friend who feels caught in the middle between me and a person who likes posts making fun of my trauma and is friends with someone who encourages people to make those posts in the first place.

If I were Mayci I would’ve distanced myself from Jessi a while ago.

Jessi liked a video on IG that said Mikayla weaponises her childhood SA in order to bully Taylor. Also said she has no room to tell someone else with trauma how to feel because her husband is part of her trauma and she hasn’t healed from it.

Mikayla commented on a video about Jessi liking it and made a very valid point about how they’re doing exactly what she’s accused of.

Jessi is claiming she didn’t mean to like it but I’ve never seen her accidentally like a negative post about Taylor. I’ve never seen her like a negative post about any of the cast before this and I know she sees them because she comments on a lot of negative posts about herself.

Of course the whole “we’re filming, there’s things you don’t know” excuse comes out as usual.

Also weird to me that Jessi is responding to Mikayla’s Instagram comment by commenting on a TikTok about it. You’re filming, you have her number, you have mutual friends. If you don’t want to feed into the narrative why are you arguing with her under a gossip account’s post?

I love seeing her be more open and talk about her confidence growing. It’s great to hear about the positive things going on in her life because we all know how negative the show can be.

I also think her advice about relationships is important for us young people to remember. I’m guilty myself of wanting to find love from others when I didn’t have love for myself and that’s never a good position to put yourself in.

Hopefully we hear more like this from Layla. Maybe we’ll hear more about her new relationship once the season drops because id love to hear more about her experience dating a woman for the first time.

I don’t have many thoughts but no one has posted it without the man’s face so I thought I’d share today’s TT for you all.

I will say I don’t believe that most of the neighbourhood is riding on the road in a golf cart, kids in the back without any helmets, and giggling while they rush over speed bumps.

It was awful watching her go through it with her last pregnancy so I had hoped for her sake that she didn’t struggle in the same way this time round, unfortunately she says it’s even worse.

I just truly hope she has a support network and feels loved & needed.

I don’t want to blame her but I just really can’t believe they got pregnant again so soon (their daughter wasn’t even one when she announced this pregnancy) given all that she had to deal with.

Starts off by (sort of) explaining what's going on:

• Says there’s lots of false information and false headlines out there but it doesn’t affect her because it’s not true. Immediately after this she says “Some things are true”
• Says she doesn’t need to read the documents going around because it’s like the show, she lived it so however it’s perceived or whatever is said could be accurate/not, could be exaggerated/twisted
• This is a “much serious matter”
• Says things have been misconstrued and she’s taking that up with her attorneys. It will be handled in the courtroom not online.
• She tried to have it sealed from the beginning to protect the children not herself
• Says people who think she’s had no progress in the courtroom don’t understand that it’s a very slow process. She thinks she’s made the progress she’s been aiming for which is more time with her son (doesn't mention the fact that she's used less than half of that time)
• Says the timing of it being leaked is the first day of her having her son for five day (this is the longest consecutive period of parent time for Taylor since Dakota was granted emergency custody months ago) and the leaking of info is a very serious matter and is being looked into

Directly addressing the claims alleged in the DCFS report:

therapist's claims:

• She complains about the court approved therapist. She didn’t like Taylor going into her car for their virtual sessions, Taylor says that’s where she goes to escape the noise. 
• She doesn’t care if people believe her because this is “her truth”
• She reached out to the therapist for extra support while struggling and she said she would try fit her in next week. Taylor feels she should’ve been given immediate attention.
• The therapist once asked “why are you crying” which made her very uncomfortable
• The therapist told DCFS Taylor doesn’t take her mental health seriously. Taylor says that isn’t true because she’s “a huge advocate for mental health” and it offended her
• Mentions she has a certified therapist and a life coach they just didn’t have the EMDR training required by the courts

claims about the visits

• She never forced her daughter to change diapers she just lets her if she wants to help. Says “if that is bad on me then so be it”
• She’s frustrated to hear that she ha an “outburst” during another visit. Says she remembers being emotional and taking a step outside and thinks that would be the correct thing to de escalate by going outside to breathe. 
• She would never leave someone in her home unintended (guessing she means intentionally? But she left them there regardless) (ETA: as people have pointed out, she probably meant unattended)
• She would never ask someone to lock up her house when it locks up itself (I’m sure they still had to make sure the house was locked when they left, not something they should’ve had to do”

Added comments:

• Says she’s not trying to sway anyone she just gives the ugly and the pretty. She’s not claiming to be mother of the year. She has faults but has the right to defend herself.
• She is confident that if her kids were put up on the stand they’re choosing “mom and mom’s house” every time, her kids know she loves them.

How is this not a direct violation of the protective order? I thought they were ordered not to speak about each other at the last hearing.

It’s no surprise to me that she couldn’t resist commenting on this because we all saw how hard she was raging when she found out about Dakota and Shinia and it lasted for months.

That message isn’t doing what she wanted it to do because it’s literally about TAYLOR being overly invested and it’s obviously part of a larger conversation we can’t see. All I’m wondering is what Taylor said in that conversation.

Sounds like he might have a better chance at getting full custody if he getting custody through alternative routes, I just hope the kids really aren’t in any immediate danger.
