Pregnant At 17 Movie Synopsis

Pregnant At 17 on Lifetime is about Sonia Clifton, a middle-aged married woman who discovers that Jeff, her husband of 10 years, is having an affair. Feeling that something has been going on for some time, the veterinarian makes it her business to find out more information about the little hussy who has taken her man. To her horror, her husband’s lover is a 17-year-old girl named Chelsea, who is not only underage but also pregnant! While enraged and disgusted at first, Sonia’s feelings began to change from wrath to empathy, causing her to want to support the young girl when it becomes apparent that Chelsea is a vulnerable girl who has no idea that her older boyfriend was married. In what turns out to be a three-way committed relationship, Chelsea realizes that she has placed everyone’s life in danger when a wicked ex-con from her past emerges and threatens to ruin everyone’s future.
