Is ‘Teen Mom OG’ Cast Member Amber Portwood Pregnant With Her Second Child?
Amber Portwood is rumored to be expecting her second child with boyfriend Andrew Glennon.
Just months into the couple’s romance, a new report claims the Teen Mom OG star, who currently shares one daughter, eight-year-old Leah Shirley, with her ex-boyfriend, Gary Shirley, is pregnant.
“There are rumors around town that Amber is pregnant,” an insider told Radar Online on November 1.
As the outlet explained, Amber Portwood began showing off her flat tummy over the summer but in recent weeks, she’s been quite silent on social media, sharing only photos of herself and her family — and no signs of a flat stomach. She’s also been fairly absent on Twitter and recently began worrying fans with her lack of tweets.
“I know I’ve been MIA, however I just want to say I’m happier than ever and focusing on family,” she recently said.
Amber Portwood began dating Andrew Glennon over the summer after her relationship with Matt Baier came to an end on the set of Marriage Boot Camp. As some may have heard, Glennon was working on the set of Marriage Boot Camp as a lighting technician when things between him and Portwood turned romantic. Since then, the couple has enjoyed splitting their time between Portwood’s home in Indiana and Glennon’s home in Los Angeles.
They also took a recent trip to Hawaii.

During Amber Portwood’s years-long romance with Matt Baier, the couple opened up about the possibility of starting a family together but ultimately said they had decided against having kids due to Portwood’s mental health struggles.
As a report by Us Weekly revealed earlier this year, Amber Portwood told her producers that because of her borderline personality disorder and bipolar disorder diagnoses, she has been prescribed, and needs to continue taking, medications that could harm a fetus. So, rather than risk her mental health to start a family with Baier, Portwood chose to focus only on her relationship and her family as it was.
To see more of Amber Portwood, her boyfriend, and her co-stars, including Maci Bookout, Taylor McKinney, Catelynn Lowell, Tyler Baltierra, and Farrah Abraham, tune into the Teen Mom OG Season 7 premiere on November 27 at 9 p.m. on MTV.
