During Thursday’s episode, Kailyn, 30, had an honest conversation with her co-host, Lindsie Chrisley, 33, about the potential of expanding her brood down the road.
The discussion began when Lindsie admitted that she was unsure if she would have a second child due to not wanting to take time away from her nine-year-old son, Jackson.
Kailyn then assured her pal that “love multiplies” as more children are added to the mix before revealing she’s considered having more kids.
“I think about having more kids and one – am I even raising children to be good citizens, good adults, good people, all of those things? Do I want to do that another time?” the Teen Mom 2 alum confessed.
She went on to say that she’s not opposed to the idea, though she might wait 10 years before doing it.
“Do I want to be responsible for raising another person and hope that they’re a good f***ing human, and then on top of it, what would that look like in terms of my other children, or could I wait 10 years from now and have another one when I’m 40?
“I don’t know. There’s a lot to consider when having kids. I don’t know. It’s just a lot.”
Kailyn is already a mom to Isaac, 13, with her ex-Jo Rivera; Lincoln, eight, with her ex-husband Javi Marroquin; and Lux, five, and Creed, two, with her ex-Chris Lopez.
And the Teen Mom star is suspected of welcoming her fifth child in November with her boyfriend, Elijah Scott.
BABY #5
Last month, The U.S. Sun exclusively confirmed that Kailyn quietly gave birth to her fifth child.
A source close to the star exclusively claimed to The U.S. Sun: “Kailyn gave birth to a baby boy on November 20 with Elijah. She has only told close family and friends.”
It came after months of speculation that Kailyn was pregnant after she was seen sporting what looked like a baby bump on numerous occasions.
Fans then noticed her seemingly slim down after her supposed due date and were convinced she had given birth after spotting various clues in her social media posts.
Most recently, Kailyn’s followers pointed out an empty baby bottle in the background of a selfie.
Just days earlier, the TV personality’s son Creed was suspected of spilling the beans about his mother’s supposed fifth child in a TikTok video of him counting his siblings.
However, Kailyn has been tight-lipped on the matter and has not publicly addressed the chatter.
TROUBLE IN PARADISE?
She did, however, leave fans confused about her relationship status after comments she made on her Baby Mamas No Drama podcast on Tuesday.
During the episode, Kailyn and her co-host, Vee Rivera, 31, sat down with influencer and author Chris GQ Perry.
At one point, the trio discussed the “roles” of women and men in relationships, leading the young mom to share her financial responsibilities in her household.
“I have a hard time in my relationships, I think, accepting a man who will provide and protect and do all of those things,” she began before revealing that she takes care of all her expenses.
“I pay 100% of the bills at home, and I pay for all my kids, and it would be very weird for me to be with someone who does those things,” Kailyn admitted.
The remark caught fans’ attention since the mom of four resides with her former next-door neighbor turned boyfriend, Elijah, 24, at her $750K Delaware mansion.
The Pennsylvania native again referenced her financial contributions, saying she doesn’t have a “choice” but to make the payments.
“I’m paying all the bills because I don’t have a choice. I feel like if it was my choice to pay all the bills, and that’s how it was, it would be more of a 50/50 split.”
Kailyn continued: “I feel like I almost use it to my advantage when it comes to my relationships which is super unhealthy.”
RELATIONSHIP WOES
The podcaster’s confession prompted Vee and Chris to share their thoughts on her situation.
“I feel like you need an alpha man to just come in and be like, ‘Baby, I’m paying this,’ and that’s it. You need someone that will take initiative, and I don’t think you’ve been with someone like that yet,” Vee suggested.
Chris then asked Kailyn what she would do if “a man came into her life tomorrow” and provided for her, to which the TV star replied: “It would be very uncomfortable for me. I would feel like I don’t have control of anything.”
Throughout the conversation, Kailyn did not mention that she had a partner, and it was apparent that her guest wasn’t aware of her live-in boyfriend.
At the end of the episode, Chris told the ladies: “Vee, you’re awesome too, and I wish you the best in your relationship. You too, Kail. I’m sure you’re going to find somebody amazing for you.”
Kailyn just laughed at his comment and said, “thank you,” instead of mentioning her rumored baby daddy.
