Teen Mom Kailyn Lowry boasts she ‘makes more money from her podcasts than an episode of Teen Mom’

TEEN Mom Kailyn Lowry boasted to her followers in a lengthy Instagram Story that she "makes more money from her podcasts" than on an episode of the hit MTV show.

Kailyn, 29, took to her Instagram Stories to set the record straight with her fans about her unexpected absence from this week's episode of the MTV show.

The mom of four explained: "I chose not to appear in tonight's episode because I didn't feel that the content that was being asked for was genuine or authentic to who I am."

She alluded that MTV producers wanted to gear her storyline towards her children's fathers, while the reality star wanted the focus to be on her business, house and kids.

The Coffee Convos podcast host boasted: "Truthfully I make more money on my podcast than I do on an episode of Teen Mom."

Kailyn assured fans that she was not "cut out" of the episode and the decision had nothing to do with her Teen Mom castmates despite fan speculation.

"It's literally because I chose to not film things that didn't feel genuine to me or my story."

She added: "I'm choosing my piece of mind over a paycheck."

The Young and Pregnant star admitted that she has accepted the choice to not appear in all 12 episodes of the reality show.

"I want to continue filming for Teen Mom as long as it feels genuine and real and if it doesn't then that's okay for me to skip out on an episode."

Instead, Tuesday’s episode of Teen Mom 2 heavily featured Jade Cline’s Brazilian butt lift and recovery process while in Miami with Briana.

Some viewers tried to get to the bottom of Kailyn’s absence, as one person asked on Instagram: “Did bri cut kails part?”

Briana responded: “We sure did.”

Kailyn then weighed in on the drama, as she took to her Instagram Story to slam her co-star.

While tagging Briana, new Teen Mom 2 star Ashley Jones was heard in the background of Kailyn’s video calling the mother of two a “punk a** b***h in the motherf***king comments. B***h, put a name on it!”

Briana fired back by claiming on her Instagram Story: "Kail doesn't want to film about breaking and entering into Chris' momma house and beating him for cutting his child's hair."

Kailyn previously called out her baby daddy Chris Lopez on social media for cutting their three-year-old son Lux's long locks without asking her first.

The drama between the co-parents escalated when Kailyn was arrested for "punching Chris several times with a closed fist" over their oldest son's haircut.

The Sun exclusively reported that the Teen Mom 2 star was arrested on September 26 for offensive touching, though she denied to police the fight turned physical.

The Sun exclusively revealed in February that the charges against Kailyn were dropped.

Briana continued to assert that Kailyn wasn't on the episode because she refused to film about the arrest.

The mother of two slammed Kailyn on Instagram for not wanting to share her authentic life on the show, writing: "Like someone is filming on the show legitimately filming about a wallpaper color choice when she could be filming about a domestic abuse situation with her baby daddy that I was told she was trying to hide.

"This is back when a child's hair was cut as was allegedly arrested after allegedly getting into a physical altercation with with Her baby daddy."

Briana continued: "While I understand all of us want to be shown overcoming our struggles and that we all take pride in our names (and someone takes pride in her brand and her podcasts) at the end of the day she shouldn't try to cover up the real her or things that are going on in her real life."

Briana asked: "Why should she get away with just talking about buying a dream house and letting her son design a bathroom when real life problems actually are occurring in her home?"
