Father of Kailyn Lowry’s Newborn Baby Speaks Out

After welcoming her newborn son earlier this month, MTV reality star Kailyn Lowry’s baby daddy, Chris Lopez finally took to social media to speak up about “Baby Lo.”

Lopez shared a status on Twitter earlier this week writing how happy he was seeing his son.

“My lil’ man put a smile on my face every time I look at him lol,” he wrote.

Lowry revealed in an episode of Teen Mom 2 that she couldn’t believe she was pregnant with her third as she was told she couldn’t “carry any more children.”

“I was told I would have to go through fertility treatments and IVF and all kinds of things,” she revealed to Jo Rivera. When he asked if she was planning to be with the father of her baby, Chris Lopez, she said “yes,” but revealed he was not willing to be a part of the show.

However, speaking to Radar Online this week, Lowry might change her mind as she shared she hopes Lopez will be part of their son’s life.

“Every child deserves their dad,” Lowry told the news agency. I’m positive he’ll be around.”

She went on to share that Lopez has so far been involved with Baby Lo’s arrival, stating he was in the delivery room with Lowry when she gave birth, stayed at the hospital with her and drove Lowry and their newborn home on Aug. 7.

“I think he has been as supportive as he can,” Lowry said. “He does the best to his ability even though it doesn’t necessarily meet the standards of what everyone else expects of him. I think people need to keep that in mind.”
