Is Theodore Dues Putting Unnecessary Pressure On ‘Teen Mom 2’ Leah Messer?


Theodore Dues is said to be Teen Mom 2 star Leah Messer’s latest love interest, but is his busy family life a good addition to her life?

Fresh out of rehab, Messer is acting as a single mother to her three daughters, 5-year-old twins Ali and Aleeah, and 2-year-old Adalynn, and, according to reports, is also helping out with Theodore Dues’ two sons, Tyshawn, 8, and Angelo, 4. Being a single mother is hard to handle in and of itself, especially with multiple children involved, so reportedly acting as stepmother to two additional children could be too much for Messer to juggle.

On July 9, Mstarz wondered if Theodore Dues incorporating his children into Messer’s life would lead to a “relapse in her recovery.”

At this point, it has yet to be confirmed what exactly Messer is recovering from, but in the months leading up to her rehab stint in Utah, the reality star was accused of abusing prescription drugs. She was even accused of being high on the show during Season 5, when she was seen slurring her words and admitting to feeling “druggy.” However, at that time, Messer had been prescribed medication.

As for when Theodore Dues came into the reality star’s life, that is also unclear. While Messer began tweeting about him in April, two months before her divorce from second husband Jeremy Calvert was finalized, they may have started their relationship before then.

As the Inquisitr previously reported, Messer and Theodore Dues, who also goes by the nickname “T.R.,” wasted no time getting to know one another, and were rumored to be living together at Messer’s mom’s house prior to the Teen Mom 2 star entering rehab in May.

In mid-June, a source revealed the following to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup:

“She moved [Theodore Dues] into Dawn’s home. Jeremy told Leah that she and the girls could stay at the home he bought for them before the split until she found a place, but Leah insisted on moving into her mom’s house.”

As for why Messer is so involved with Theodore Dues’ children, Radar Online claimed his children’s mother, Mandy Winnell, is currently sick.

“Mandy is dealing with health issues, so T.R. and Leah are going to be taking the boys for the near future.”
