Taylor McKinney, Maci Bookout Expecting Child: ‘Teen Mom OG’ Star Prepared For ‘Added Responsibility’


Teen Mom OG fans have had the opportunity to meet Taylor McKinney on the show and many fans feel he is a great guy for Maci Bookout. While the two have been dating for about two years, they only recently started living close to one another. Taylor moved to Tennessee to be closer to Maci which is a good thing now that she is pregnant!

Maci announced her second pregnancy late last year and revealed that, this time around, she is expecting a baby girl. Of course, the gender of her baby isn’t the only thing that is different this time around. The first time she was pregnant, she was 16-years-old and in a complicated relationship with Ryan Edwards. She has admitted that she didn’t feel as though she could really enjoy the pregnancy the first time around. This time, though, she is certainly able to enjoy things.

Now roughly 31 weeks pregnant, Maci Bookout is sharing a new baby bump photo and her thoughts about the pregnancy with Taylor McKinney. It turns out she is excited and ready to “take on the added responsibility.”

“This is for everyone that has been asking for a belly pic! This pregnancy is so different than my first one! This time around, I’m prepared to take on the added responsibility, and I’m confident in my parenting abilities. I can’t stress enough how important it is to wait until you’re ready to have children.

Now 23-years-old, Maci is ready to add to her family with Taylor McKinney. It turns out that Taylor is actually the same age as Maci, too, according to Wetpaint Entertainment. Maci had a large age difference with Ryan Edwards, the father of her oldest child, Bentley. According to a recent report from the Inquisitr, co-parenting with Ryan isn’t going as well as the reality show star had hoped that it would.

Taylor McKinney’s child with Maci is his first and the two will welcome the little girl in June. They have decided on the name Jayde Carter for their little one, opting for a unique spelling of the popular name. The couple hasn’t revealed where they got the inspiration for the name or the meaning behind it, but Maci did reveal that they aren’t changing their mind on the name anymore.

Teen Mom OG airs on Monday nights and fans can catch up with Taylor McKinney and Maci Bookout.
