Teen Mom OG star Maci Bookout has had enough. The MTV reality star reveals she is fed-up and ready to blast fans with the truth about her ex- Ryan Edwards.
When it comes to fierce moms, Teen Mom Og Maci Bookout is one of the fiercest. Maci has had it with ex-Ryan Edwards and is ready to spill the truth about him, according to In Touch Weekly reports.
The drama between Maci and Ryan came to a head during the Teen Mom OG Season 9 Reunion. Maci did not face the Edwards family without backup; husband Taylor McKinney stood by his wife’s side during the emotional blowup over Ryan and Maci’s son Bentley.

“If Ryan spoke to the therapist as much as he has spoken to the tabloids over the few months, he might actually have a relationship with Bentley,” the 29-year-old stated.
Ryan Edwards dipped out when it came to his face-off with Maci. However, despite his decision to skip out on the reunion sitdown Ryan still took a few verbal blows at Maci’s husband Taylor.
Edwards spoke with The Sun following the heated showdown between his parents Larry and Jen Edwards and Maci. There is a lot of miscommunication and tension going on between the families.

Ryan stated on Taylor, “People do that because they feel incompetent, threatened or less than whatever makes him feel that way. He could be like my one-year-old that does stuff like that for attention.”
As usual, Ryan’s mom and dad, Jen and Larry stepped in to defend their troubled 33-year-old son. Larry claims he believes that Maci plays a massive part in how much time Bentley spends with their family.
Taylor did not sit still to Larry’s bashing of Maci. “Since I’ve been around, I know this woman has bent over backward to make sure Bentley has kept a relationship with them. Even after everything that Ryan has put us through,” he states.
McKinney did not stop there. He went to question Ryan’d sobriety. He adds that Bentley being around Ryan after his addiction struggles gave him great concern.
“It’s based [on] when he shows up to something or when you see him sitting there in a scene, and he can’t hardly hold his eyes open,” Taylor explained.
Ryan reveals in a later statement that he understood why Taylor felt that way, but, the reason for his sleepy appearance is because “99 percent of the time he is exhausted.”
The hostile relationship between Maci,Taylor, and the Edwards family is ongoing. But, MTV took it upon themselves after several meetings with Bookout to fire the Edwards family from the reality series.
Maci reveals she feels that the focus on the relationship between Bentley and Ryan and family is not what she wants to focus her story on any longer.
Doing it all for Bentley
This news shocked the Edwards clan. However, Ryan’s wife Mackenzie Standifer stepped in to make light of the situation, stating;
“We’ve been having this conversation for a long time, but it’s hard to pull the trigger on something like that,” Mackenzie, 24, said. “We got the phone call saying we’re not going to be doing Teen Mom anymore, and we both felt at peace.”
Hopefully, the new Teen Mom OG relationship dynamics will take most of the stress off of Bentley where it comes to his dad Ryan Edwards. How will this affect Ryan? Well, it appears he may have more time to get the rest he claims he needs, and perhaps a job?
Somehow though, we feel Teen Mom OG fans have not heard the last of the Edwards family. But kudos to Maci Bookout for standing her ground.
