Leah Messer recently addressed the possibility of welcoming a fourth child. At the age of just 23-years-old, the “Teen Mom 2” star has been married and divorced twice, and has three children by two different fathers. Still, rumors continue to swirl, claiming she may be pregnant with baby number four.
Although Messer recently faced allegations of a pregnancy, according to The Hollywood Gossip, she has since confirmed to fans that she has no current plans for a fourth child. In fact, according to the report, Messer told fans on Instagram she might never have another child.
“Where do these rumors even come from?” Messer asked fans on Instagram. “I have the IUD and even [though] for some it may cause complications it’s the perfect birth control for me. It will stay that way for a long time.”
Messer went on to reveal she was content with her three children, 6-year-old twins Ali and Aleeah from her first marriage to Corey Simms, and 3-year-old Adalynn from her second marriage to Jeremy Calvert, and was not sure if she would even consider a fourth pregnancy in the coming years. Messer was recently awarded joint custody of the twins after losing primary custody to Simms in October, Us Weekly reported.
Following her second divorce in June 2015, Messer began dating T.R. Dues, and within a short time, she and Dues were living together with their total of five children, which included Dues’ two sons, Tyshawn, 8, and Angelo, 4.
However, when Messer was confronted with the relationship during the “Teen Mom 2” season six reunion by her first husband, Simms, who claimed daughter Aleeah had told him the couple was living together, she flat out denied their romance altogether. Messer also refused to film with Dues during season six, despite their reported living situation.
Because Messer and Dues have denied their relationship since its start, it is hard to say what is going on with the rumored couple, and fans will have to wait until the season seven premiere to see if Messer has finally come clean about their relationship.
