Tyler continued, “Then someone’s outside perspective like yours comes along & just instantly hits you in the feels. Sincerely…thank you ??”

Tyler and Catelynn have both been open and candid about their struggles with mental health. Teen Mom OG viewers have seen Catelynn attend in-person therapy to manage her depression.

When Tyler and Catelynn met, they were just teenagers, but they were dealing with many adult situations in their lives.

Tyler’s dad Butch ended up marrying Catelynn’s mom April, technically making Tyler and Catelynn step-siblings. Butch and April later divorced, but Tyler and Catelynn were living with them under the same roof during their marriage.
