‘Teen Mom’ Did Kailyn Lowry Unknowingly Confirm Baby #5?

Reports have dogged Teen Mom star Kailyn Lowry ever since the US Sun first reported that she had given birth in secret to a fifth baby. But those reports remained unconfirmed. Perhaps until now.

One little slip-up may have given away the whole ballgame and revealed the truth behind the mystery baby.

Kailyn’s Mystery Baby #5 – Or Not?

The rumors around Kailyn’s “mystery” baby started all the way back in July of 2022.

At the time, Kailyn Lowry was in a nasty back-and-forth with ex baby daddy Chris Lopez, with whom she’s had a contentious co-parenting relationship for a few years. Chris tweeted, “Out here talking about you’ll beat me up now you know you gotta protect the belly, stop it.” And the rumors started flying.

Shortly after that, the former Teen Mom star was photographed outside of her Delaware home with the mystery baby’s alleged father, Elijah Scott. And fans thought they spotted a baby bump. Lowry fueled the rumors for the next few months by only appearing in photos on social media above the rib area.

In November of 2022, The Sun reported that Kailyn Lowry gave birth.

Despite ‘Confirmation’ Of Baby #5, Lowry Has Kept Her Lips Zipped

But no official word came down from Kailyn, leaving fans scratching their heads and wondering what was really going on.

Sounds of a baby crying, glimpses of baby gear; they’ve all fueled even more belief that Kailyn Lowry gave birth in secret with Elijah Scott and just hasn’t shared the happy news with fans.

But she may have just dropped a huge bombshell hint by accident.

On Monday, eagle-eyed fans spotted a hint in a photo of the mom of 4 (or 5) attending her son Lux’s baseball game.

In the photo, Kail is carrying her phone and the background is just visible. The image on the phone appears to show five children, and at least one of them seems to be a baby.

Fans zoomed in on the phone screen, and one person commented, “Kail’s screen saver, is that five kids?”

Others agreed that there appear to be five.

Why So Secretive?

According to sources who have spoken with The Sun, Kailyn gave birth to the mystery baby in November, with Elijah Scott as the father. And the source claims that they named the baby Rio.

It’s unclear why the reality tv star has been so tight-lipped about the alleged bundle of joy. But Elijah has certainly been more low-key than Kailyn’s previous beaus, and he could be behind the drive for privacy.

As of mid-March, sources claim that Kailyn Lowry and Elijah Scott are still together.

So maybe they’re just parenting in peace and enjoying the babymoon before they can’t avoid the media circus any longer.

What do you think? Has Kail given up her secret for good this time? Or is the mystery baby rumor much ado about nothing?
