If you’re a Teen Mom fan, then you probably have a pretty strong opinion about Leah Messer.

She’s one of the franchise’s most divisive figures, which is strange — as unlike so many of her co-stars, Leah doesn’t go seeking out feuds and drama.

The mother of three has encountered some hard luck and made some bad decisions, but to us, it’s obvious that Leah deserves praise for how far she’s come, rather than criticism for her past mistakes.

But the world is full of judgmental people, and as a result, Ms. Messer takes a lot of flak on social media.

The past year has been a real roller coaster for Leah, as she endured a very public breakup with Jaylan Mobley just two months after she accepted his proposal.

Making the situation even stranger was the fact that Jaylan reportedly coerced Leah into signing a non-disclosure agreement that prevented her from speaking publicly about the split.

It’s the latest strange development in a very eventful life, and it’s left fans with more questions than ever.

So without further ado let’s delve into some …

Who Is Leah Messer?

Leah Messer is a West Virginia native who first gained fame with her 2010 appearance on MTV’s 16 and Pregnant.

Leah, just 17 at the time, was expecting twins by boyfriend Corey Simms, whom she had only recently started dating.

The twin girls, Aliannah Hope and Aleeah Grace Simms, were born prematurely via c-section, and the challenges of parenthood soon put a serious strain on Leah and Corey’s relationship.

The couple eventually separated, after Corey learned that Leah had cheated on him.

But against all odds, Corey and Leah later reconciled and tied the knot!

Unfortunately, the marriage didn’t last long.

Leah and Corey got divorced in 2011, and she wasted no time in moving on.

The divorce was finalized in June, and less than a year later, Leah married Jeremy Calvert.

Leah and Jeremy welcomed their first child together, a girl named Adalynn, in February of 2013.

Once again, co-parenting proved to be more of a strain than the couple could handle, and Leah and Jeremy went their separate ways not long after Addie’s first birthday.

Leah and Jeremy got back together and broke up many more times in the years that followed, but eventually, they parted company for good.

After washing her hands of Jeremy, Leah vowed to stay single for a while, but it wasn’t meant to be!

She went on to have semi-serious relationships with T.R. Dues and Jason Jordan, but it wasn’t until recently that she appeared to be headed for the altar for a third time.

Leah began dating Jaylan Mobley in 2021, and the two of them moved very quickly.

Unfortunately, the relationship deteriorated just as rapidly.

Multiple insiders have now confirmed that Jaylan was caught cheating on Leah.

But it seems the infidelity was just the final nail in the coffin, as the relationship had been going downhill for quite some time.

Leah and Jaylan got engaged just weeks before they broke up, and his proposal contained a major red flag.

Publicly, the couple claimed that Jaylan bought Leah a house and surprised her with the deed as part of his proposal.

The story didn’t make sense from the start, as Leah was the one with all the money in their relationship.

Sadly, muscular dystrophy is a progressive disease that often gets worse with age.

But Ali has the benefit of a large support network made up of loved ones who would do anything for her.

Even critics of Leah’s have praised her for her obvious devotion to finding the best treatment options for her courageous daughter.

Yes, Leah has made some mistakes over the years but there’s no questioning her commitment to her kids.

And her parenting skills are made all the more impressive by the fact that she didn’t have many role models in that department.
