Amber Portwood storms teen mom reunion and slams “garbage” Gary after taking her by surprise with Leah Reveal

Amber Portwood and Gary Shirley seemed in a good place when the newest “Teen Mom OG” was finalized last week. However, at the end of today’s reunion episode, that was definitely no longer the case.

All season long, Amber has struggled to bond with her daughter Leah, who feels like her mother abandoned her because of men in her life and during her time behind bars. While she was hoping to go there with Leah, Gary was against it. In the end, he at least agreed to see a therist with Amber who told Shirley about the borderline personality disorder and the diagnosis of bipolar disorder in his ex.

When a highlight of the season aired, Amber looked dejected, which Dr. Drew Pinksy made her ask why she looked “locked”.

“I’m closed because I listen to my daughter say certain things I see online,” Portwood said after Leah asked if Amber’s tears about their broken relationship were real. Dr. Drew then reminded viewers that an emotional breakup could be part of their diagnosis of borderline personality disorder, with Amber explaining that is why she wanted Gary to join her.

“I just don’t want to [Leah] write myself off like I did with my own mother at a young age. I know growing up I regretted it because I lost four years with my mom, “she added. Then after Amber said things were” good “between her and Gary, he came up with that Stage … and it went downhill for a short time.

Gary stated that he spoke to Leah about what her mother’s borderline personality disorder meant after seeing her with Amber. As he spoke, Amber began to check out again. When Dr. Drew then asked Gary if he thinks Leah should see someone for himself now, after initially resisting the idea, he dropped a bomb.

“She’s talking to someone now, a professional,” he said before turning to Amber and adding, “You probably didn’t know that. According to Leah’s request, she did not want it to be discussed. I have your permission to talk about it, to make it known. “

Amber was definitely surprised when she said that Leah was good to see a therist … “if I know about it.”

“Part of Leah’s leaving she didn’t want anyone to know. They are working on various things that she can do to facilitate communication between her mother and her, “Gary continued. “She’s gone by 10, I think [times]. “

Portwood couldn’t hold back her frustration at this point.

“Here’s the thing, I’m her mom, I need to understand what Leah is going through so I believe the communication should be for that,” she told her ex. “I also think Leah is a kid, she is not grown up, I’m her mother. She doesn’t have to say anything, but you can tell me. “

“So should I break her trust and tell you what not to know?” Gary asked before Amber said, “That doesn’t break your trust, though.”

She then sarcastically thanked Gary for letting her know Leah was receiving treatment, “on this stage, here”. She added, “I don’t need a camera in front of my face to know something. This mistake or mistake has been happening for years. Every time I find out something, it’s in front of a camera. “

Dr. Drew tried to make a positive impact on the situation by telling Gary that it sounded like Leah was letting him keep Amber updated. Portwood didn’t think it was, however – which Gary confirmed when he said that would be Leah’s fault as well. The two then got into a screaming fight, with Amber telling Gary not to yell at her while he told her not to put her finger in his face.

“You got out of here with a Bullcr. I just found out on camera. Everything you do is for TV. Done. Everything he does for TV. I’m out, bye! Live your life” , she said before he got off the couch and left the stage. Then she arched back and started yelling at Gary right on the platform. “And by the way, your first class ticket is coming back, you won’t be sitting with me,” she told him. “You can’t use me for the rest of your life and for your money. How do you get your money today, Gary?”

“It’s all because of you, thank you,” he replied with a mocking tone. “I said thank you, thank you so much for all you’ve done for me, I appreciate it.”

When she stormed backstage, she said, “You’re welcome. Trash” – before turning to a producer. “He can still make his living with me, that’s ridiculous. You know damn well that Gary only does this when we have screens. I’m done. I’m done, ”she said.

The camera then showed Gary’s wife in the studio before the camera cut on a “To be continued …” when Amber said, “Kristina, do you want to keep secrets from me? I’m the mother. I should have just wanted to know that she would go at all, that would have been nice. “

“Teen Mom OG” airs on MTV on Tuesdays.
