Tyler Baltierra and Catelynn Lowell from MTV's popular TV shows "Teen Mom OG" and "16 and Pregnant" have probably been the show's most consistent couple. Of course, they have had their fair share of ups and downs, but they've made it very apparent since the very beginning how strong of a couple they are. Considering that, they have been a lot of fans favorite couple. But now, they are receiving backlash from their fans for their "inappropriate" clothing line for toddlers.
What's so inappropriate about their clothing line?
Catelynn and Tyler have expressed many ideas of what they want to do with their lives.
At one point, Tyler wanted to be a social worker or a therapist, and Catelynn wanted to so something to help girls who also find themselves to be young and pregnant like she was.
These careers seemed fitting for them after having gone through getting pregnant and putting their first daughter, Carly, up for adoption when they were just teenagers. But now, Tyler's dreams have changed. He now dreams of owning a clothing line for toddlers. And that is just exactly what he's been working on.
When looking at the photo, there honestly isn't a whole lot that appears to be inappropriate about the child's clothing, but fans are saying something different.
In the photo, you can see a young girl of maybe two years old modeling one of their shirts.
It's black with lace and is very cute. But fans are saying that the shirt comes too low in the front. And they complained about the black choker the toddler was wearing. Some even went as far as saying that the shirt being the color black was too inappropriate.
How did Catelynn and Tyler respond to fans who were turning this into a scandal?
Tyler responded to this backlash by posting a photo of the power couple's second daughter, Nova, and commented that the model they used for the photos, Emma, was two sizes too small for the shirt she was wearing. He went on to say that the director of the shoot most likely had to tie the back of the shirt to make it tighter, thus making the shirt appear as if it was cut too low.
He also mentioned that they had brought many accessories for the toddler models to choose from and that in that photo, Emma had chosen, herself, to wear the choker.
In the photo he posted of Nova, you can clearly see what he means as her shirt fits perfectly and comes just below her neck. He also showed a picture of the back of the shirt on Nova to give people more of an idea of what he's talking about.
Tyler stated that he usually doesn't respond to hate on the internet, especially not with a photo of Nova, but that he just had to because the claims were just so ridiculous. But despite that, he reminded fans that not everyone is going to like their style and that that's okay. He also reminded them that he and Catelynn are paying attention to the feedback and appreciate it dearly.
