Teen Mom OG stars Catelynn and Tyler Baltierra took to social media today to share some jokes with their followers and fans. However, the results backfired and the couple spent the remainder of the day battling with strangers on the web.
Tuesday morning, Catelynn, revealed that she was wanting to have another baby with her husband. “Wahhh I’m ready for another baby @TylerBaltierra,” she tweeted.

“Me too babe,” Tyler, 25, tweeted in response.
Just a few hours later, the MTV personality made a fake announcement on Instagram that she was pregnant with their third child.
“Proud to announce a new baby Baltierra @tylerbaltierramtv,” she captioned an ultrasound photo that featured a cutout cartoon baby.

But not long after the reality star posted the image, she set the record straight โ and confirmed that she is in fact not expecting another child.
Though she followed up the fake announcement with an Instagram photo that featured the text “I’m just kidding โฆ but seriously,” she did confirm that she does want baby number three. “I would love one soon,” she captioned the image.

Tyler also took to social media to address the stunt saying it was a cruel thing to do and he was sorry.
Despite Catelynn and Tyler’s attempt to make a joke via the announcement, the couple received major backlash from social media users who believed it was true. Users especially took aim when Tyler took to social media addressing the stunt.
“It was a cruel thing to do, I’m sorry lol,” Tyler first tweeted, and followed minutes later with, “Apparently the world can’t take jokes anymoreโฆdon’t worry #TeenMomOG will be back on the air soon so we can disappoint you some more.”

@TylerBaltierra It’s not a joke when someone can’t have their own child it’s actually very insensitive to those who struggle by making a mockery of it
