Is Briana DeJesus Quitting 'Teen Mom 2'? She Confirms Her Future With MTV
Briana DeJesus has garnered tons of buzz, both good and bad, since joining the cast of Teen Mom 2 last year following the short-lived, one-and-done Teen Mom 3.
As fans well know, DeJesus began dating Kailyn Lowry's ex-husband, Javi Marroquin, months after her addition to the show was confirmed. While they've since split, a number of the ladies of the show, including Chelsea Houska and Leah Messer, haven't exactly welcomed her with open arms.
Although DeJesus hasn't hit it off with her co-stars, aside from Jenelle Evans, she won't be leaving the show after season 8.
“I am not going anywhere," DeJesus confirmed to Blasting News on March 5. “Sorry to disappoint my haters, but that’s not happening. I plan to be around for as long as MTV will have me, my family, and our story, and as of right now, that’s all moving in a positive direction. So, no, I’m not quitting Teen Mom 2 nor am I leaving. You’ll be seeing me soon!”
David Eason Was Fired Weeks Ago
Rumors of DeJesus's potential exit from the show began earlier this month after MTV confirmed they would no longer be featuring David Eason, husband of Jenelle Evans, on their show. As Teen Mom 2 fans likely saw, Eason began facing backlash on Feb. 14 when he and his wife shared photos of her holding a gun just hours after the school massacre in Parkland, Florida. Then, just days later, Eason went on a homophobic rant while talking to one of his followers on Twitter.
Shortly after seeing what Eason had written, MTV confirmed he had been fired on their official statement, noting that Eason's views do not reflect what their network stands for.
Briana DeJesus Is Currently Single
Following a messy split from Marroquin last month in Miami, DeJesus began living with her former boyfriend Devoin Austin, with whom she shares one child, Nova. At the same time, however, she sparked rumors of a reunion with her other ex-boyfriend, Dre, after spending time with him at a spa on Valentine's Day.
Although DeJesus has faced a number of romance rumors in recent months, she has maintained that she is single all throughout and appears to be focusing on her two children, including Nova and youngest daughter Stella.
A premiere date for the new season of Teen Mom 2 has not yet been set.
