Teen Mom Amber Portwood’s ex reveals plan to move their son James, 3, away to $5M Malibu mansion & decrease her visits
AMBER Portwood's ex Andrew Glennon, 37, revealed his plan to move with his son James, 3, to a $5 million Malibu mansion and only allow the Teen Mom star monthly visits.
The Sun can exclusively reveal that during a two-day trial last month over custody of Andrew and Amber's three-year-old son, the California native revealed his plan to relocate to his mother's massive estate in the exclusive zip code.
Andrew is asking the court to allow him to take their son away from Amber, 31, in Indiana to his home state where he and James would live with his mother, Charmaine Witus, as they get settled into California.
He currently lives with their son in a home Amber owns in Indiana, while she is living in a rental nearby.
Charmaine's estate sits on over three-acres of property, and her home features five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a swimming pool, which can be seen in aerial photos, according to listings.
In testimony during the custody hearing, Andrew's mother revealed there is also a separate guest house too where his sister and her fiance currently reside.
Amber Portwood
During his testimony, Andrew answered his attorney's line of questioning and affirmed he would encourage a relationship between Amber and James.
When he was asked about the proposed parenting time schedule for Amber, her ex said he would allow her visitation: " Three every month, three times a month for 10 hours at a time."
He also is asking for no overnights, and that her parenting time be exercised in California.
During the hearing, Amber's ex also testified that he was unable to obtain a job in Indiana and that he had three job offers on the table in California.
However, Amber's attorney inquired during Andrew's cross-examination if he had attempted to find a job in Indiana since he was last employed by MTV in 2020.

"What steps have you taken to obtain employment here in Indiana, after the end of your employment with Viacom in 2020?," the attorney asked of the former Teen Mom cast member.
"I got picked up by a film group in Canada to do a small courtroom shoot that was for about $250 bucks."
"Okay, and have you applied for jobs?," she pressed.
"I'm a full-time father so I'm doing what I can while spending as much time with my son. There's no industry out here," Andrew shot back.
The back and forth continued, with Andrew revealing that Amber had told him he should get a factory job, and when her attorney asked why he hadn't tried that he said he couldn't because of a "fused ankle."
"Have you applied for disability because of your fused right ankle?" she asked to which Andrew replied that he had not before the attorney continued to ask questions about the physical nature of his job as a cinematographer- the job in which he first met Amber doing.
Amber's attorney also worked to show that the jobs Andrew had submitted offers for were not in the film industry.
There was one real estate job offer, and the other two offers were sales-based.
Andrew also admitted that he had not taken his real estate test yet either.
Additionally, Andrew had told the court that he selected two options for schooling for James out in California, near his mother's home, however, on the cross-examination he said that he did not know how much either school would cost.
