From being sacrilegious to being boastful of future careers, it’s been a busy week for the stars/former stars of the “Teen Mom” franchise! In an effort to bring you up-to-date on the latest “Teen Mom” news, The Ashley brings you the Teen Mom News Pile.

Here are some of the major (and minor but interesting) ‘Teen Mom’-related things that happened over the last week or so…

Farrah Abraham Calls Jesus Her “Sugar Daddy” & Claims He Loves Money

Farrah recently opened up about her higher power, Jesus— whom she also called her “sugar daddy” during a recent interview.

AS.YOU.DO.

The Backdoor Teen Mom ruffled some feathers with her appearance on the Legally Goff Podcast this week. During a segment in which Farrah was talking about how she made it through her most trying times (such as her sex tape era, her troubles with her parents and her driveway porta potty clogging up), Farrah gave it all to Jesus, crediting Him for pulling her and her daughter Sophia through.

She then referred to The Big J as her “sugar daddy.”

“Thank God for my sugar daddy Jesus up in heaven,” Farrah stated.

“That is all that I can do…” Farrah continued. “Praise God with the grandmas at church every Sunday. That is how I know there was a will and a way for Sophia and I…God’s got his own relationship with Sophia but Sophia has her own relationship with God.”

Farrah then advised everyone to “have a higher power.”

In addition to loving her “sugar daddy” God, Farrah also spoke about her love for money.

“Freedom, safety and peace comes with money. And so I will need my money to have my peace, my safety and my happiness for my child and I,” the fired ‘Teen Mom’ star said. “So I can’t say enough about money. I do love money and I’m just gonna stand by it.

“I think God loves money, too,” she continued. “He created it.”

As The Ashley previously reported, Farrah spoke a great deal on the podcast about the toxic relationship she has with her estranged mother, Debra Danielsen. You can read more about that here. 

 

Jenelle Evans Claims She’s Producing TV Shows Now

Jenelle recently revealed that she’s staying very busy these days, making money and producing television shows.

The fired ‘Teen Mom’ star recently posted a video to social media to dispute a comment saying she’s using her MTV money to stay afloat. Jenelle insisted in her video response that she doesn’t rely on her ‘Teen Mom’ money anymore, as she hasn’t been paid for being a trainwreck on TV in over two years. 

“My last [‘Teen Mom’] check was like two years ago so I’m surviving on my own, thank you very much,” Jenelle said smugly. “I don’t need a TV show to keep me alive and to keep my family supported.”

Jenelle— who makes her money via social media and by posting nudie cutie pics on OnlyFans— then offered to give everyone some “tips and tricks” on how to stay home and be a “content creator.”

“I have multiple streams of revenue,” Jenelle bragged. “Not just my mattress actress skit I got goin’ on, but I also— behind the scenes I’m doin’ so much work!” 

Jenelle went on to brag that, besides social media, she’s now “producing.”

“I’m getting involved in, like, creating TV shows and stuff like that.”

After being asked during a follow-up Instagram Q&A session by someone wondering what kind of “TV shows” Jenelle is “producing,” Jenelle refused to answer.

(As of press time, Jenelle has no credits or upcoming credits listed on the Internet Movie Database for producing anything.) 

 

Mackenzie Standifer Returns to Social Media After a Year Hiatus; Says She’s Learned to “Shut Up”

The (original) Mrs. Ryan Edwards has made her return to TikTok, after staying off The Interwebs for a year.

Mackenzie posted a video to update her fans on what she’s been up to since we last saw her, which was around the time she and Ryan finally finalized their divorce. That same month— August 2025— Ryan and Mack worked out a custody plan for their two kids, and agreed to refrain from making disparaging remarks about one another online.

Mack has seemingly followed that court order…by getting off the Internet completely. In the video, she spoke about why she went M.I.A. from posting cryptic responses to things that Ryan’s new Mrs.— Amanda Conner— would post to taunt her on The Interwebs.

“So much good has come from being off the Internet…when there’s just too much noise, remove yourself from the situation,” Mackenzie stated.

Mackenzie— who is back to using her maiden named Standifer on TikTok— said she learned that she doesn’t need to provide a snarky response every time something is said about her on social media.

“Not everything warrants a response, which is, like, so hard for me as a person,” she said. “I just want to have the last word sometimes— most of the time. But as I’m getting older I’m learning to just let it go. It doesn’t matter. The world keeps turning whether you say something or whether you don’t.”

After providing some positive updates on her job and kids, Mackenzie revealed the biggest lesson she learned during her year-long sabbatical from online nonsense.

“I’m working really hard— and have worked really hard in this last year— to just shut up,” she said. “Not everybody has to hear you talk. So, that’s one thing that I’ve learned.”
