It's not looking good!
Drug Addiction & Child Support
She added that on one instance, he “ripped the bedroom door off of its hinges and threw it across the room and then put a hole in the bedroom wall.” She alleges that, after drinking a six-pack of beer in just a few minutes, “[h]e threw a beer bottle and it smashed on the wall next to [her] and cut [her] leg and foot and hand.”
Of course, even Chelsea has had her fair share of legal battles with Adam. In a recent episode of Teen Mom 2, she revealed that Adam owes massive amounts of money in overdue child support.
“His drug use is out of control,” Chelsea spilled to her friend in the episode. “His depression is getting worse.” She added, “I’d like it to be where his visits need to be at a visitation center, but if she were to go visit his parents, he couldn’t be around. I’m going to talk to my lawyer and see what she thinks.” She also revealed that the entire situation is frightening for her. “It does scare me… He’s getting worse,” she said.
In another scene, she revealed to her father Randy that Adam “Will be willing to agree to the name change if [we] eliminate child support, adjust child support, or take into consideration [Cole’s] income. Obviously he’s fine with doing it, but he’s trying to [get something out of it.] Why would we eliminate child support to hyphenate her last name?” She revealed that Adam wanted to eliminate close to $10,000 of back child support he still owes her in addition to future child support.
Busted!
Clearly, Adam is in a dark place and a deep financial hole. According to an update by Radar, Adam could be at risk of losing his home.
The outlet reports that the Treasurer’s Office for Minnehaha County Court revealed that Adam owes $1,780.24 in property taxes for the 2016 year as well as $858.61 for the first half of 2017. HIs home isn’t currently on foreclosure, but Radar reports that “the county will take out a tax certificate if the debt is not paid off.”
In addition to this, Adam is currently in major trouble with the law. On May 28, he was served with a warrant for “violation of a protection or no contact order” as well as one for “non-support of a minor charge,” according to Radar.
Needless to say, Chelsea probably won’t be happy about this news. She has recently spoken out about Adam’s apparent custody violation as well.
Adam’s visitation is strict, so imagine Chelsea’s surprise when he blatantly violated his custody agreement and posted it on social media!
“Chelsea let his parents have [Aubree] for a couple of hours,” a friend of Chelsea’s spilled to Radar Online after Adam posted a picture of him and Aubree together when they shouldn’t have been. She let them spend time with their granddaughter even though the source says “It wasn’t their time to have her.”
“[Chelsea is] livid and won’t do that anymore,” the source said. “These grandparents haven’t learned a d*mn thing. Can definitely tell where Adam gets the law and rules don’t apply to him attitude!” They added that Chelsea even “emailed her lawyer to find out what her next step should be.”
Imagine fans’ surprise when only a few weeks later, Adam posted a picture of him and Aubree hanging out at her school together — and clearly not in a visitation center!
Father Daughter
“Is this supposed to be at a visitation center?” asked Twitter user @TMMamaDrama. “So many questions…” However, Chelsea quickly settled everyone’s concerns.
“The agreement states he’s allowed to attend one school lunch a week if he chooses,” Chelsea cleared up on Twitter, adding, “And to attend events such as concerts etc. I appreciate you guys looking out for me and my girly though.” She also pointed out that this is the first time Adam has gone to a school lunch with his daughter.
This isn’t the only thing that seems to be concerning for Chelsea. She has recently opened up with her fears about Aubree eventually watching the show!
“It’s inevitable that [my children are] going to see [the show] someday. I think Watson is going to be fine because he’s seeing fun, family times. I think Aubree is going to be a little more difficult because she’s going to see the relationship with her dad [Adam Lind] and she’s going to have a lot of questions about our relationship and her relationship with him,” she explained in an interview with E! News. She added, “We’ve always been open with each other. She is open with me and can talk to me so I just want to keep it that way so for when they do watch it, she feels comfortable and won’t have any surprises.”
Even though she wants to protect her daughter, she spilled that fans can count on her to keep her stories truthful and honest. “You want to be open and honest because people are going through the same things that we’re going through and it does kind of feel nice when other people can relate to it,” she spilled. “You want to be open but it’s also scary. Even after nine years, it’s definitely still scary.”
