Teen Mom Kailyn Lowry demands MTV ‘run her a check’ for deleted scene with Briana DeJesus about feud on Family Reunion
KAILYN Lowry was furious that MTV ran a deleted Teen Mom: Family Reunion scene where Briana DeJesus spoke about their feud.
"Absolutely not. This is bulls**t," the reality star commented when the clip made its way to Instagram. She added she wanted MTV to "run her a check."
"Absolutely not. This is bulls**t," she wrote. In a second comment, she added: "But yall can run me my check for talking about me at all & filming it."
Fans went wild over Kailyn's comments and her ability to make her presence known even though she wasn't one of the moms on Family Reunion.
"Name getting brought up not even being on the show. Briana always trying to start some sh*t," one wrote.
"Sounded like an uncomfortable situation!! love that Leah wanted nothing to do with the drama being presented and didn’t fall for the bait!" wrote another.
A fourth chimed in: Was this before or after the treadmill? You know how real life don’t sync up with the show #teamkail"
Kailyn personally responded: "[She] said we could work it out but no public or private apology for publicly accusing me of committing felonies I never committed. Got it, like nothing ever adds up w this sh*t."
TREADING THROUGH THE DRAMA
Kailyn claimed that Briana sent her a treadmill as a mean body-shaming jab during their nasty feud as their court date approached.
In an email to Kailyn's attorney, Briana's attorney claimed that the treadmill “seems like an awfully expensive thing to send to someone as an insult.”
Back in June, Kailyn sued Briana for defamation after claiming her co-star “asserted that Kailyn physically beat Christopher Lopez, the father of two of Lowry's sons, and broke into and entered the home of Mr. Lopez's mother.”
The Sun can exclusively reveal the two are expected to face off in court on January 14, according to court papers.
The hearing is to rule on Briana’s anti-SLAPP motion, which protects a person’s freedom of speech, that was filed in August to have the case dismissed.
BRIANA'S CLAIMS
The drama began when Kailyn was excluded from the June 8, 2021 episode Teen Mom 2.
After the episode aired, Briana claimed Kailyn's absence was because she allegedly “committed violent, physical crimes towards Mr. Lopez.
"Defendant also asserted that Lowry was arrested for breaking and entering into the home of Mr. Lopez’s mother.”
However, Kailyn hit back that she did not break into Chris’ mother’s home or beat him up.
She claimed the statements “threaten” her “ability to earn a living" and requested $30,000, reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees and a jury trial.
Briana's lawyer called Kailyn’s lawsuit "meritless" and demanded she pays his client's legal fees.
He also requested the entire lawsuit be dismissed, arguing: "It is meritless and directed exclusively at protected speech on a matter of public concern brought for the purpose of harassing and trying to silence a critic.”
CHRIS'S INVOLVEMENT
The Sun also reported Chris has also been dragged into the court war, as he has been served a subpoena in his baby mama’s case against Briana.
According to Delaware courts, Chris was issued the subpoena, which orders a person to appear in court, testify or produce documentation, on September 16.
Kailyn claimed Briana and Chris hooked up after her baby daddy attempted to back Briana in her legal battle against the mother of four.
According to documents obtained by , on November 24 Chris offered a statement to the court, assisting Briana in her claims against Kailyn.
Chris shares sons Lux, 4, and Creed, 1, with his ex Kailyn.
The TV personality recently welcomed his third child with his new partner, further adding fuel to the flame.
Kailyn and Briana's feud first began when the Florida native shared a short-lived relationship with Kailyn's ex-husband Javi, with whom she shares her son Lincoln, eight.
BRIANA'S HEALTH SCARE
Briana, meanwhile, shared on her Instagram Stories on Tuesday that she was rushed to the hospital while filming the new show.
She captioned it: "BTS #FamilyReunion. Out of everyone, I was the one that ended up in the hospital."
The reality star was seen being rushed to the hospital in a dramatic teaser from the reunion - which premiered last night - back in December.
She yelled "I can't breathe" before collapsing on the pavement in the explosive trailer.
