On Father’s Day, Teen Mom star Cory Wharton shared a heartfelt post that left fans emotional and inspired. The reality star, who’s become known for his open, family-oriented approach to parenting, gave followers a rare glimpse into his personal life by highlighting four generations of his family in a powerful tribute.
“Four generations deep 💯💯💯💯,” Cory captioned the post, which featured a touching video of him standing alongside his grandfather, father, brothers, and children. “We got grandpa in here, then we got my dad, my brothers, and then my kids. Special day today. Shoutout all my dads out there.”
Cory, who first rose to fame on MTV’s The Real World and later joined Teen Mom OG alongside Cheyenne Floyd, has become a fan favorite thanks to his commitment to co-parenting and his evolving role as a father. He shares daughter Ryder with Cheyenne and has two more children with long-time girlfriend Taylor Selfridge: Mila and Maya. Despite the challenges of parenting in the public eye, Cory has always been open about fatherhood’s ups and downs, offering support and honesty to fans going through similar experiences.
The Father’s Day tribute struck a chord not just because of the rare multi-generational moment, but because it reminded viewers of Cory’s growth since his reality TV debut. From a carefree bachelor to a deeply devoted dad, his journey has been one of personal transformation.
The Teen Mom franchise has evolved over the years, but moments like Cory’s highlight the heart of the series: family. Fans quickly flooded the comments with praise, calling the video “beautiful,” “emotional,” and “a reminder of what matters most.”
While drama and controversy often dominate headlines surrounding Teen Mom, Cory’s Father’s Day message brought things back to basics—love, family, and legacy.
As Cory continues to balance fatherhood and reality TV, one thing is clear: he’s proud of where he came from, and he’s even prouder of the future he’s building for his kids.
