SECOND TIME’S THE CHARM
In August, Rachel took to Instagram to announce that she was pregnant with her second child.
She announced in her caption: “I’ve been keeping this a secret for quite some while now.”
“I’m very happy/nervous to finally announce that I’m having another baby!!!” she continued.

“These past few months have been full of some of the most life changing moments in my entire life but I wouldn’t change a thing for the world. Your daddy & I can’t wait to meet you!”
Rachel finished her caption by asking her followers to be “kind” in the comments, as it took a bit of courage for her to share the news.
In an earlier interview with The Ashley’s Reality Roundup, Rachel shared that her new man’s name is Scott, who is a co-worker – and more.
“We live together and co-parent two kids, as he has a daughter himself,” Rachel told The Ashley, clarifying that the pregnancy was planned.
“I didn’t want my children to be too far apart,” she added.
DITCHING DREW
Rachel is no longer with her baby daddy Drew, who was previously taken into custody at Monroe County Sheriff’s Office in Tennessee on April 6, 2022.
He was arrested on charges of homicide and attempted murder.
Drew and Rachel got their claim to fame after appearing on the first season of MTV’s Teen Mom: Young & Pregnant.
The ex-couple dated on and off since February 2019, though for a time the Teen Mom was unsure if Drew was truly the father of her child.
However, Rachel later confirmed his paternity in a January 2020 episode.
By June of 2020, the pair had split for good but maintained a rocky co-parenting relationship.
“Glad we’ve put the past behind us,” Rachel shared on Instagram at the time.
“I know you love our baby girl so much & I’m so happy that your takin the steps to change for the better. Much love for you… (No we are not together & we don’t want to be together but we are friends & co-parenting),” she explained.
Season three of the MTV spinoff showed Drew being released from jail before he entered a treatment facility for recovery.
During a November 2021 episode, Rachel discussed his relationship with his toddler daughter.
“This isn’t the first time that he’s attempted to straighten up his life and now that Hazelee’s getting older, I don’t want her to get hurt if he keeps getting in trouble and isn’t around.
“She doesn’t need to be calling him ‘Dad’ right off the bat [if he comes over to the house] because she doesn’t know who he is,” she remarked.
