Kailyn was absent from a recent episode of Teen Mom 2, which led many viewers to question if she had been fired by MTV. Although there was no indication that Kail would be leaving the franchise anytime soon, their concerns were seemingly confirmed by Kailyn’s castmate, Briana DeJesus, who claimed that she knew the truth about why Kailyn wasn’t included in the most recent episode.

She wrote on social media, “She doesn’t want to film about breaking and entering into Chris’s momma house and beating him for cutting his child [Lux]’s hair. I don’t want to be [part] of any type of franchise that isn’t real. Let [people] know [you] got arrested for hitting your [baby daddy] and talk about it! For someone to be able to pick and choose isn’t being real, and I signed on a show to be real.”

Briana’s post was in reference to Kailyn's 2020 arrest, where she was subsequently charged with domestic violence against the father of her two youngest sons, Chris Lopez. In response, Kailyn took to Instagram to address Briana’s claims of being cut from the show.
