Hunter Johnson knocked up his girlfriend Bella Vaughn when he was only 12 years old and, in a new clip of the upcoming season of Unexpected, he revealed that the pregnancy ruined whatever relationship he had with his dad.
“It all fell apart after Bella got pregnant,” Hunter’s mother says in the clip. “His dad [was] like, ‘I give up now because you’re having a kid and I can’t help you with your kid.”
“He said I ruined my life,” Hunter added, getting emotional. “I do not feel like I ruined my life.”
Hunter insisted that he didn’t care about what his dad said, adding, “I know Bella won’t believe me.”
“I think he may not show it but sometimes it really upsets him,” Bella explained, to which Hunter insisted, “No it don’t.”
“I think he lets in more than he lets out,” Bella said.
Hunter— being a typical 13-year-old boy— then makes a poop joke to cover the awkwardness. (No…seriously.)
Hunter and Bella have caused a lot of controversy since it was announced that they would be appearing on the seventh season of ‘Unexpected.’ As The Ashley previously reported, Hunter was only 12 years old when Bella became pregnant. Bella was 14 years old at the time they conceived their son, Wesley. Over the last month or so, Bella and her family have defended themselves on social media numerous times.
Later on in the newly released clip, Bella and Hunter are shown arguing about the possibility of Hunter failing the eighth grade.
“I don’t want to be two grades above you! Tenth grader dating an eighth grader and we’ve got a toddler!” a pregnant Bella tells him. “I’m not going to let him fail. He’s going to go to school and he’s going to do what he needs to do because he’s got a kid on the way.”
Bella seems more concerned about not being able to go to prom with Hunter if he fails the eighth grade , than how she is going to raise her baby with a 13-year-old.
“If I go to prom my 11th grade year, he won’t get to go…freshman can’t go. That’d be awful,” Bella insists.
(According to a social media post by Bella’s mom in October, Hunter did advance to the 9th grade and wasn’t required to repeat the 8th grade, as Bella feared he may have to do.)
Hunter and his parents have yet to really speak out about the situation about Hunter’s alleged estrangement from his dad. However, Bella hinted about Hunter’s problems with his parent (or parents) in a post to TikTok in November. In the caption of a video of Hunter playing with their son Wes, Bella wrote that she is considered “the mean daughter-in-law.” (Bella and Hunter are not actually married, though.)
“No I just saw how you did nothing for your son,” Bella wrote to Hunter’s parent. “How you made him question if he could be a good dad. How you only talked to him if he reached out and didn’t make any effort to meet your grandson.”
@_izabellavaughn it shouldn’t be materialistic when it comes to being a parent, but you never had to be one so it makes sense. #15andpregnant💙 #teenmom #boymama #grandparents @KrisNFalen @Hunter_00🦆🕊️ ♬ original sound – dannyvarr

The thought of a 14yr old giving birth terrifies me. Their own bodies aren’t done developing yet.
What the fuck were these two sets of parents (not) thinking?
The narrative these two are trying to push. You are TOO YOUNG to be having babies. Period. I think Hunter’s dad was just telling the truth, the kid was 13 when Wes made an appearance…the way they are talking about this I doubt he will be raised any differently. Poor kid. Can some actual adult adopt him please??
Bella was 14 and Hunter was 12 when they got together. Still wrong. However, people need to stop attacking Bella. The way I see it, is BOTH kids are victims. HER parents and HIS parents are at fault and should take the blame. Especially Bella’s mom. I don’t see Bella as a “predator” at all. Just two kids whose parents have failed them.
exactlyyy and even if it was the other way around and hunter was older people would still find other reasons to pick on bella besides for getting pregnant, all that energy needs to go to both their parents ESPECIALLY hunter’s because wtf did u do wrong for a 12 year old boy to be having sex already
Eh…there was some questionable things reported to be said by her. She started to like him when he was 9 or 10 and “wanted him” but then “waited for him” until he was older. That’s not normal behavior.
This is so disgusting, I just wish they would all go away and that baby should be in foster care ASAP. No person involved in this story can properly raise a kid for what we are seeing
Foster care can be pretty bad. Unfortunately, the baby is probably better off having parents with family to help. I know this won’t be a popular opinion.
That girl is a predator, sorry…. A 15 year old having sex with a 12 year old is insane.
If you read the article, Bella was 14 not 15. And another article by TheAshley said that Hunter turned 13 a week later. Bella is only a year & a half older than Hunter. Is that still WAY too young to be parents? Of course but she’s in no way a predator for dating someone a grade below her.
everyone keeps talking about bella’s weirdo fame wh0re parents (rightfully so) but people are forgetting to also call out his parents because why was he already having sex at 12 and had sex with other girls before bella???
Even Arkansas isn’t that Kentucky.
The more I read about this story, the more I hate everything about it.
This makes me sick. The parents should face charges, this is abuse to allow such a young Child to have sex. 12 is no different than 11 or 10 or 9 when it comes to being a PARENT!!!
This just gets worse and worse. Of course a 13 year old BOY cannot be a good father to a child. He’s can’t even legally work.
