Great interview Adam. I’ve always loved Maci on TM. She was one of the few that demonstrated that a teen mom can take her responsibility of being a parent seriously despite getting pregnant so young. 💖

Maci has always been my favorite Teen Mom. She’s always been smart, kind, and respectful. Definitely someone to look up to. 💯

Adam, Please, please ( during the interview or not ) convey to Maci her honesty about the struggles with addiction in the family, and how that affects her and her children (including his parents denial and enabling ) have helped SO MANY people!!!!! I know so many people that have never understood how addiction affects the people around them. And with her BRUTAL honesty Re anxiety ptsd from the shooting … 🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖🙏 Macy, you are an amazing, strong beautiful role model for all people, but esp women of all ages, younger and older than you! And thank you for being so brutally honest about things that are so hard.. and YOU ARE GREAT PARENTS!! #madrespect!

I didn’t realize you have known each other for so long. How sweet. Must have been fun times!!!🎉❤

Absolutely adore Macy! She’s one level headed, grounded mama. She’s done an amazing job putting her child first while trying to co-parent with someone with addiction problems. Her husband is also a stand up guy who seems to have given solid support for this chaotic situation. 👏 Bravo to both of em! Beautiful blended family❤

Great interview Adam! Maci and Chelsea had the most supportive parents with a stable home life. It’s not surprising that they both went on to marry great guys and build a healthy family. Maci is such a great mother…so proud of her and Bentley!

I agree. I think it's safe to say these 2 were the most well rounded, grounded, and put together than anyone else in the franchise. But I have to say this, Chelsea was my absolute favorite when TM2 aired. I loved her hair, her dark brown with blonde highlights she had in the beginning and even took a pic of her and had my hairdresser dye and highlight my hair the same colors. Loved it and really liked her but unlike Macy Chelsea changed as the years passed. Of course she was growing up and maturing as we watched but she started to give off an attitude of "I know I'm better than my cast mates" which technically was true as far as her parenting skills and support system but her attitude started to make her unrelatable at least to me. I got pregnant at 17 and was only about 4yrs older than them so I could relate to the show. But unlike Macy who seemed to always stay the humble person she was from the start Chelsea just gave off that attitude that was just a flaw to me. For instance I remember this one episode the cam crew had to meet her at Starbucks and her reasoning was something along the lines of "well y'all know how I like my privacy and sometimes just want my home to be for me and my family" and you could even tell her producer lady was even a bit offended by it. Ummm ma'am, you've been on this show for years now and u get paid a nice chunk of change to let us into ur world which means ur home and follow your life as you go. Since when did meeting at a Starbucks because you want privacy and won't let the crew come to ur house ever become part of the show?? And I can guarantee MTV nipped that in the butt immediately after that one time cuz I'm sure all of them would rather if they didn't have to let cameras into their home and could sit at a Starbucks or in the producers car and give a summary of what's been going on but uhhhhh nobody would watch that and if they let Chelsea do it then they would have to let everyone do it. I honestly think she thought she could just try to maneuver that and somehow believed MTV would just go with her new format. It rubbed me the wrong way. And her and the husband have been in a lawsuit cuz they're being sued by the company she went thru who handled her sponsorships and money making opportunties and they claim her and the husband were taking full profits from the sponsorships and deals and not giving them a percentage which they were contractually obligated to do. So not everyone is as lovely as we think they are. It's also my theory that she got tired of being in that show and probably asked MTV for her own spinoff or she was leaving and they obviously didn't see this as a success and she left to do her own show renovating homes with the husband and this was like 2years ago....I can't find the show anywhere to save my life so if anyone knows if it even aired at all plz let me know where I can find it. I'm curious if anyone else got the same offsetting vibes from Chelsea as the years went on. Anybody??

bentley was america’s baby 😂 so crazy to see him grown up 💓

Love maci, she’s so real and down to earth.

Maci is wise beyond her years. She has always had a broad understanding and wisdom. Doesn’t surprise me her son is so grounded .

I love that Maci wants to talk housewives and vpr. Maybe you oughta have her on again during season 11 vpr and dish.

Yes!

This interview just proved why she’s shears been my favorite!!

I didn’t watch teen mom, but this young lady really has it together.Maci is clearly very responsible and mature and I enjoyed her and this interview very much. She showed too that it helps tremendously to have very supportive parents and family, it does take a village. It’s unfortunate everyone doesn’t have that. Very enjoyable and eye opening interview Adam. 😊

I would love a Maci & family show, I think it would be great! I personally haven’t watched Teen Mom in years but I enjoyed Chelsea and Cole’s show on HGTV.

Addiction is hard. I’ve always respected maci with her coparenting or not really. It’s up to us in the formative years, as they get older they will excited their own choice and we should respect that as well (even as the other parent, even if it hurts)

not macy lettin yall know mtv pays better than bravo 😂💅

Thanks for listening! ❤️❤️❤️

I was so Looking forward to this interview and was not disappointed! I love Maci! You two sounded just like friends, I forgot you were even interviewing her! I’m so jelly that you are moving to Hilton Head! I couldn’t handle that side of the coast but you’re already used to it. This was a great episode 😊

Loved it. Maci is our girl. My daughter was going through a pregnancy at 16 and we watched together when Maci was the same age. My daughters baby daddy is in and out of rehab, and my daughter also met and married a great guy. Can't believe my Grandson is in high school either. He contacts his real dad hete & there & when his dad is doing good he may show up to a hockey game. I think it's good that Maci is letting her son navigate his relationship with his dad. Bentley is old enough to protect himself will be 18 before you know it and making decisions on his own. ❤ Great interview 👍

Yay. Love that you know her and got an intrview. She is my FAVORITE OG TEEN MOM❤

So many things I could say about this. One Maci is an amazing woman and mother. I’m just a year older so I grew up watching her and she’s shears been an inspiration. It’s also crazy to think that Bentley is almost the same age as her when she started the show😮

dont, i know. i feel depressed watching this because it reminds me of 2009 nostalgia and being 14 coming home from school and watching it on MTV. things were much simpler back then

You’ll absolutely love Hilton Head!! We have a house there…. but our main residence is in Myrtle Beach…..The Jazz Corner is an excellent place to eat…it accommodates vegetarians… 🌸💕💕💕🌸

Great interview! Macy is so chill and real! ❤

I love that Maci had questions about rhoa!

I love Maci!!! Excellent interview!!!! Thank you.😚 ❤💓

Damn I just had to give this brother his props on his interviewing skills. Tbh I really clicked in this vid cuz it popped after watching an old episode of 16& pregnant and I really just wanted to hear about what was going on with Ryan but he kept me interested from the second it started. I was expecting to watch this interview but for skipping to find out about how things are with Ryan. Had to come and give this man his interview flowers

I can’t believe Beny is in HS getting his license!! 😮 I wish she’d give a house tour. I try to picture how it looks just from what we see on camera it doesn’t look as big as it does from the outside view.

Great interview!! Who doesn’t love Maci

Awesome interview Adam! It would be awesome to have Maci on for one of the recaps of real housewives or when Vanderpump Rules comes back on! She’s one of my all time favorites from teen mom. She is just such a great mom and person. Truly an inspiration for a lot of young woman.. I’ve loved watching her journey over the years. It’s like two of my favorite worlds are colliding. 😂😂😂 Thank you for this amazing interview Adam! I hope you and Jason have a great weekend! 💜💜

This is amazing news to hear ab Ryan!!!

This interview flowed soo well. You and Maci have a way with conversing🤗

I love the relationship that Maci has w Bentley especially how he feels he can share his feelings and anything else w him mom. And Maci listens, is open and then makes adjustments on her end as needed. She is by far my favorite OG teen mom. Such an amazing person & mom. Fantastic interview Adam!!

Was great to hear Maci sort of spill the tea in re: who she preferably to work for and how her pays set/ higher with a certain outlet vs the other. I think THIS is what stars and interviewers should be talking about. It's wild to see these production crews manipulate the reality of reality tv. Then potentially get the talent canceled for their editing choices. I think stars/talent/people in general need to realize it's 2024. We don't necessarily NEED these companies. As talent, you should be choosing where and who you work for. Create your own narrative. And money! Don't let these companies have SO much control. It's nuts. We as regular folks have for sure seen this. It's pretty clear (& unfortunate) that drama sells. Toxicity sells now.. and it's just like why subscribe to that when you can have your own platform. Take control my parasocial friends 😂 💯

Absolutely loved this! Please do it again!

Love Maci always kept it Classy

Great Interview! Maci will always be my favorite OG ❤

OMGOSH you know each other? I adore maci. She’s one of the success stories from her franchise. What a wonderful woman she is !! Love this.

I’m rooting for Ryan to have the strength to take this disease one day at a time, and for he and Maci to peacefully coparent and find what works for the sake of Bentley.🙏🏻

That’s my problem with reality tv these days, there has to be drama. At this point the shows we watch we grew up with, their like our besties, im sick of the drama, I just want to see them succeed and navigate through life like the rest of us

You guys need to do more videos together!!

My mom was a teen mom but unfortunately she had addiction struggles etc. I grew up watching maci and wishing she was my mom.

💜💜💜💜💜💜

I did not know you lived in Chatt!

Omg I’m an idiot it’s prerecorded lmao .. Macy if you read this, this is directed to you. Adam when you talk to her convey my thank you 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Adam, if you and Jason go down that path of becoming fathers, I say go for it. A friend of mine and her wife have a daughter. She never got teased for having 2 moms. Just go for the experience of being a parent. You and Jason would make great parents.

Since Tara Reid thinks SandoVILE is such a great bloke then she should date him and then when he cheats on her with her best friend we can all remind her how much she thought he was so great and not feel sorry for her at all, she makes her bed she can lie in it!!!!!
