Teen Mom: Cheyenne Floyd Justifies Her Casting in the Show as a 24-Year-Old Mother!
Cheyenne Floyd, in a recent Snapchat video, revealed that she was a young mother and faced the same kinds of struggles as her co-stars. Fans have often pointed out that she was never a teenage mother and called her a misfit for the show. In the video, Cheyenne explained that she never claimed to be a teen mom, but somehow her daughter Ryder’s paternity story ended up in the hands of Viacom executives.
Cheyenne’s ex, Cory, shared the video with MTV, and since they were in a hurry to replace Farrah, they decided to move forward with her story. Furthermore, at that time, she had not revealed that Cory was her daughter’s father. This mystery element really worked in her favor. The producers liked her background story and reached out to her. At that point, she had no idea her entire family would end up being a part of the show.
Cheyenne talked about her struggles as a young mom, but fans were not pleased with her explanation. Many argued that although she was a young mother and had her own challenges, she was not a teenager. They felt she had certain privileges, especially because her family was very supportive, unlike some of the other cast members who had very different struggles.
Cheyenne did not argue further on the matter and has not responded to the subject again. The diva is currently pregnant for the third time and is very excited to experience motherhood all over again. This is her miracle pregnancy after years of trying, and Cheyenne is trying her best to stay positive and motivated. For all the latest reality TV updates, stay tuned to TV Season & Spoilers.
