Teen Mom Season 8b Preview
In the season eight midseason premiere, titled “Decisions, Decisions,” Amber Portwood is released from jail after her widely publicized arrest. Portwood was arrested back in July 2019 for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend, Andrew Glennon, while he was holding their baby.
At the time, police said in a statement to People, “Just after 3:00 a.m., on 7.5.2019, officers were called to [address] reference a disturbance. Officers spoke to the male victim who stated his live-in-girlfriend and he were having a disagreement. During which time the female, later identified as Amber Portwood assaulted him, while he was holding their one-year-old child. Officers spoke to Amber Portwood at the scene. She was subsequently arrested for her alleged actions in this incident.”
That was not Portwood’s first arrest. She spent 17 months in jail back in 2012/2013 stemming from a 2010 altercation with her ex, Gary Shirley. Her mental health issues and substance abuse struggles have been a part of Teen Mom since the beginning.
Meanwhile, the other moms on the show also have some big moments on the season eight midseason premiere. Mackenzie Douthit discovers that her husband Josh McKee cheated on her, while Maci McKinney’s son can’t go to Jagger’s first birthday party, thrown by Mackenzie Standifer and Ryan Edwards. Cheyenne Floyd’s boyfriend Matt Walker finally moves to Los Angeles and Catelynn Lowell Baltierra has an anniversary surprise in store for her husband Tyler Baltierra.
Then next week, there are back to back episodes airing on March 24 titled “Not Going Down Without a Fight” and “To the Rescue.”
On “Not Going Down Without a Fight,” “Cheyenne throws her first fundraising event for VLCAD support. Amber’s custody battle takes a turn when Andrew petitions to move James to CA. Maci strives to support PCOS Awareness Month. Mackenzie tries to file for divorce but Josh refuses to sign.”
And then on “To the Rescue,” “Gary takes Amber to anger management class after audio is leaked from a dispute. Catelynn visits her psychiatrist after listening to Amber’s audio leaks. Cheyenne decides to start an event planning business. Maci invites Ryan to Bentley’s bday party.”
Teen Mom OG airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.
