Bluebonnettex theorized on reddit, “Maci decided to film again and Bristol’s negotiations started falling through. So she gets pregnant to keep the negotiations going and secure her contract.”
However, it seems that things are set in stone. “MTV has been shooting with her already,” the source told The Ashley. “They’ve been out there filming her for the last few weeks under a code name.”
Bristol, 27, has three children: her son Tripp and her daughters, Sailor and Atlee. Bristol confirmed the announcement on Instagram, writing, “I am excited to join MTV’s Teen Mom OG. I look forward to sharing my experiences and hope that I can help others on their journey.”
Though her mother announced her engagement to Tripp’s father Levi Johnston, they ended their engagement shortly after Tripp’s birth. During custody negotiations in 2010, they rekindled their relationship and became engaged again before it fell through for good.
She married her husband, Dakota Meyer in 2016. Dakota is an outspoken veteran and the youngest person to ever be awarded the Medal of Honor. He is the father of her two daughters.
The couple’s drama is all ready for TV. He filed for divorce in February, noting on the papers it was due to “discord or conflict of personalities.” But since then, the couple has been all over social media with affectionate posts.
For how much money MTV is paying her, it makes sense that Bristol would do anything to keep her spot. According to Us Weekly , producers are paying Bristol an incredible $250,000 for the first season of the show. Additionally, she will also receive an extra $50,000 for a possible second and third year on the show.
Their source added in shock, “She could be making $350,000 [a year] in three years!”
