'Teen Mom' Star Catelynn 'Will Never Stop Fighting' To Be In Daughter Carly's Life
"Teen Mom" stars Catelynn and Tyler Baltierra have been sharing their "blocked" and "ignored" drama on social media all week.
"Teen Mom" stars Catelynn and Tyler Baltierra took to social media to share that they've recently been "blocked" by daughter Carly's adoptive parents.
Earlier this week, Catelynn shared a series of Instagram Stories claiming Brandon and Teresa, Carly's adoptive parents, have been ignoring her for months and have refused to let her and Tyler see Carly for her 15th birthday.
Not long after, Tyler also took to Instagram Stories to share more of the situation from his point of view.
Catelynn And Tyler Baltierra Reveal They've Been Blocked By Carly's Adoptive Parents
A few days ago, Catelynn first revealed that she and Tyler have been "blocked" and "ignored" by Carly's adoptive parents. She posted a series of Instagram Stories to share her point of view on the situation.
Her Story slides explained that she's been sending texts to Teresa and getting nothing in return. Catelynn also said she's sharing her side of the story to "show Carly in the future how much I tried and continued to do so."
One slide explained why she feels Brandon and Teresa have taken a huge step away from them.
"At the end of the day I think her parents feel scared/threatened because Carly would ask questions about why we don't get together more, why we can't just fly to her for a weekend etc," she wrote. "I will ALWAYS support Carly loving her parents! They love her and raised her! But the fact that they keep us distant and Carly's siblings distant does not help Carly."
Tyler Baltierra Then Began Sharing His POV
Tyler then jumped onto social media to further explain their "truth."
"I respect everyone's opinions on this sensitive & very personal subject. However, I don't agree with the fact that some say we 'learned how to manipulate situations to be a victim & get sympathy.' I require no sympathy & don't ever expect it," Tyler wrote.
"I made a decision as a child that will inevitably affect me as an adult & the children I'm raising for the rest of our lives. I deserve all the criticism & judgments that may come out of that decision."
Tyler continued to explain that all he wants is the "truth to be told and the facts to be known."
"So that one day when/if Carly decides to seek answers, she will have that information & not just the biased, modified/customized information that may come from her parents," he wrote.
"There is a lot of unexplained truths behind closed doors regarding Teresa & Brandon's decisions about us having a relationship with Carly, especially when it comes to MTV, the publicity of our story, their compensation for it, etc, & since they have chosen to finally cut us off (which I believe they have every right to do so), now we have no way of getting this information to Carly when/if she seeks it out. So that's why we will continue to use our platform as a way to get it to her in case it's needed, regardless of anyone's opinions about it."
Catelynn Doubled Down On Her Stance Days After Initially Sharing
A few days after initially revealing her side of the story, Catelynn shared a few more Instagram Stories on the topic, declaring she "will never stop fighting to have communication" with Carly.
"It's not fair to tear sisters apart. It's not fair to not let Carly be surrounded by people that love her," she wrote. "We love her! Her sisters love her."
The next Instagram slide continued her stance.
"We never want any harm for Carly at all! We love her and will always support her, lift her up, and be here for any questions etc. We know how damaging it is for adoptees to not have relationships with their biological families. I also witness how damaging it is to the other kids I'm raising to not be able to talk or see their oldest sibling," she continued.
"It's just hurting all these kiddos and it makes me so sad. Sad for all the kids. My heart hurts."
TikTokers Chimed In On The 'Teen Mom' Stars' Situation
@stayrealbaddies #TylerBaltierra takes to Instagram live to continue to defend himself against Carly's adoptive parents, Brandon and Teresa! He questioned Brandon and Teresa's intentions in not letting him & Cate post photos of Carly: "If it was about privacy, why did you go on the cover of a magazine? Why did you do an adoption special with #DrDrew?" #TeenMom #TeenMomTheNextChapter #TeenMomOG #16andPregnant #MTV #CatelynnBaltierra #tylerbaltierra #mtv #16andpregnant #fyp #adopted #adoption #sad #hurts ♬ original sound - StayRealBaddies
Many TikTokers have been sharing videos on Catelynn and Tyler's situation and many others have been adding their thoughts via comment sections on all that's going on.
TikToker @StayRealBaddies shared a recent Live that Tyler did to share more of his side of the story. Most comments on the post sided with Brandon and Teresa.
"Brandon and Teresa are Carly's parents. They can post their daughter's face if they want. C&T gave up their right so they needed to respect what the parents wanted. If B&T said no photos then respect it," one person wrote.
Another pointed out, "It's literally said in the paperwork visitation and updates were mandatory until she was 5 after that it was up to them."
'That Is Not Their Child Anymore'
