TREAD LIGHTLY
In December 2021, amid a similar back and forth between Briana and Kailyn, the mom of two sent her costar a treadmill.
Kailyn revealed the unsolicited "gift" on her Instagram Story.
The Teen Mom star placed the exercise equipment in her "dog room."
In her short clip, the treadmill was seen still inside its open box and had not been put together.
The MTV star thanked Briana, seemingly sarcastically.
She added: "My dogs will love it."
Kailyn joked about being "lazy" and how she did not "have to walk" the dogs by herself.
In another story, the reality star asked her followers if the treadmill should be on the left or right side of "the dog bath."
reported at the time that Briana had allegedly sent Kailyn a treadmill before their court date was approaching.
According to court documents filed at the time, Kailyn was upset when the treadmill arrived at her home.
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.”
“If Ms. Lowry doesn’t want it, I could stand to lose a few pounds myself,” Briana’s attorney jokingly added.
LEGAL ISSUES
In June 2021, 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 hearing was intended to rule on Briana’s anti-SLAPP motion, which protects a person’s freedom of speech, which was filed in August 2021 for the case to be dismissed.
The drama kicked off when Kailyn was excluded from the June 8, 2021 episode Teen Mom 2.
After the episode aired, Briana alleged that Kailyn's absence was due to her reportedly committing "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.”
