'Teen Mom OG': Reunion Drama Between Co-Stars Sparks Social Media Clash

What Sparked the Drama

The situation began after Bookout posted a short clip on Instagram in which she, Portwood, Lowell, and Floyd could be seen having fun while shooting promotional material for Teen Mom. The comments section was soon flooded with those wondering why McKee was absent from the shoot.

Mackenzie Comments

McKee soon weighed in when a fan commented on Bookout's post to ask where she was. She wrote, "Chey hates me so I did it solo. They are editing me in."

Maci Responds

Bookout posted a screenshot of McKee's comment to her Instagram account and defended herself. She wrote that McKee is "far too worried about how you're portrayed to people than you are on how you treat people." Bookout also noted that she would "continue this conversation" with McKee privately and asked her not to delete any further comments. As the Teen Mom Tea account shared, Floyd liked Bookout's post, which has since been deleted.

A Video Statement From Mackenzie

Shortly after Bookout posted her statement, McKee published a video in which she addressed the situation. She began by saying that she was unsure how it got to this point. The reality star then reflected on her relationship with Floyd. In January 2021, McKee referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as a "colored" woman. Amid that controversy, McKee sought out to chat with Floyd, the only Black mom on the Teen Mom OG cast.

McKee said on Friday that when she and Floyd did speak, she apologized for her past comment. She also said that she told Floyd "I love you" several times and claimed that her co-star laughed at her in response. McKee said that she apologized to Floyd again shortly before the reunion and claimed that her fellow Teen Mom star, in turn, unfollowed her on Twitter.

Cheyenne Weighs In

Floyd later weighed in on the whole drama on her Instagram Story. She first wrote that she is "not a MTV producer" and that she has no say in what material is filmed with the cast. In reference to McKee's account of their video chat, Floyd said that it was a "beyond delusional" version of what apparently happened. During their conversation, Floyd said that she taught her co-star a "history lesson" regarding segregation and the background of the term "colored." The Challenge alum claimed that McKee said that her husband, Josh McKee, thought that Floyd was going to be "one of the angry Black women" and that they were "surprised" she agreed to chat.

Floyd also said that she agreed to be on the call when McKee spoke with the Color of Change organization. She said that she did not laugh at McKee when she told her "I love you." Instead, she explained that "I love you" isn't a phrase that she would "throw around." In addition to addressing their conversation, Floyd also claimed that McKee made several "uneducated" and "ignorant" statements about the situation during the previous Teen Mom OG reunion but that they were edited out.

Mackenzie's Clarification

Once again, McKee addressed the situation on Instagram. She wrote that she would like to have a private conversation with Floyd, but that her co-star "refuses" to chat with her. The reality star said that her husband never referred to Floyd as an "angry Black woman." McKee also said that she "was not putting my foot in my mouth" during their conversation and said that she thought they had a "good" discussion. Finally, she acknowledged that it was MTV that decided to not include her in the photoshoot that originally set the whole matter off.

Aftermath

While McKee did issue these statements on social media, you would be hard-pressed to find them now. She reportedly deleted both her Instagram and Twitter accounts in light of this dramatic situation.
