Teen Mom star Amber Portwood had some choice words for Dr. Drew Pinksky recently. MTV released a sneak peek of The Next Chapter Reunion, which is scheduled to air tonight. In the clip, Portwood can be seen getting defensive when speaking with Dr. Drew. Keep reading to see why.

Struggles With Custody And Co-Parenting

It is well-known that Amber Portwood is going through a rough time. She lost custody of her four-year-old son last summer to her ex, Andrew Glennon. She has been fighting to regain custody ever since.

When asked about how she has been handling things, she has said she’s doing well but really struggling to be so far away from her son. After he was given custody, Andrew Glennon took his son and moved into his grandmother’s mansion in Los Angeles. That is 2,000 miles away from where Amber Portwood is living.

“Honestly, this is what it feels like—two different states,” she told the U.S. Sun. “Nothing feels any different. I’m going back and forth, and if that’s what I need to do, then that’s what I’m going to do.”

Portwood also mentioned that she is not the only person going through something like this. In fact, plenty of people have it worse.

On top of that, Teen Mom fans will know that Portwood also has a 13-year-old daughter who lives with her dad, Gary Shirley. Amber and Gary have been able to successfully co-parent their child.

The same cannot be said of Amber and Andrew. In fact, Andrew seems to not want Amber to be a part of their son’s life at all. Discussing this and other problems in her life is likely what led to the tense moment MTV showed in the teaser trailer for The Next Chapter Reunion.

MTV posted a clip teasing some of what will unfold in the upcoming reunion. The 25-second video showed many tense and emotional moments. Tears were shed, but what really grabbed the attention of many people was the interaction between Dr. Drew and Amber Portwood.

The good doctor was calling Portwood out for being “unclear” with the things she says. He stopped and said, “Amber, I gotta be honest with you. You’re being a little bit unclear and…”

However, he didn’t get the chance to finish his statement before Portwood cut him off. “No, I’m being clear,” she snapped at him. Dr. Drew was visibly stunned and silent for a moment. Fans will have to tune in to see what unfolds.

Teen Mom: The Next Chapter Reunion will air Tuesday, December 20 at 8 p.m. EST on MTV. Will you be tuning in?
