KAILYN Lowry has finally confessed that she is indeed a new mother of twins.
The U.S. Sun broke the news last year that the Teen Mom had given birth to the twin babies, a boy and a girl, less than a year after welcoming her fifth son Rio.
After months of silence, Kailyn shared she’s given birth to twins
But Kailyn’s new additions may have been her worst kept secret.
Two sources exclusively confirmed to The U.S. Sun in November that Kailyn had officially given birth to the twins.
The former TV star shares both Rio and the newborns with her boyfriend Elijah Scott, 25.
She also has a son, Isaac, 13, with her ex, Jo Rivera; a son, Lincoln, nine, with her ex-husband, Javi Marroquin; and sons, Lux, six, and Creed, three, with her ex-Chris Lopez.
BIG REVEAL
Rumors began in May after photos of the Teen Mom 2 alum, exclusively obtained by The U.S. Sun, showed her sporting what looked like a baby bump while running errands.
Although fan speculation had run rampant, Kailyn didn’t confirm that she was even pregnant until just a week before giving birth.
The MTV alum revealed the news on her Barely Famous podcast.

In a video from the episode posted on her Instagram, Kailyn showed off her rounded tummy while sharing her pregnancy with her guest, Allison Kuch.
“We both came home with permanent souvenirs,” Kailyn told her friend while discussing their recent trips to Thailand.
“Wait, you came home with a permanent souvenir?” Allison asked, looking confused.
Kailyn then directed the camera at her extended stomach beneath her skintight gray T-shirt.
Shocked by the reveal, Allison noted: “We both got pregnant in Thailand.”
SECRET SLIP
In the following weeks, fans scoured Kailyn’s social media looking for clues that the babies had arrived.
Just before the start of the new year, fans thought she accidentally leaked a photo of one of the babies while promoting an episode of her Barely Famous podcast.
The pic showed a baby, initially presumed to be Rio, lying on his father’s chest at their $750,000 Delaware mansion.
However, some eagle-eyed viewers suspected Kailyn posted a snap of one of the twins instead.
“On Kails IG post from today, recapping the BF episode about Rios birth, there’s a photo of Elijah laying g with a baby on his chest. It appears that the photo may have been put there by mistake,” one person pointed out on an online forum.
“I definitely could be wrong. But if you compare that baby to Rios pics that she posted when he was born, Rio has much more hair than the baby in the pic. And Rios is much darker hair too!!
“I wonder if the pic accidentally got posted in the IG thumbnail,” they concluded.
EIGHT IS ENOUGH?
With the twins, Kailyn has seven children and it looks like she might not be done.
The 16 & Pregnant alum revealed during an episode of her Barely Famous podcast that she previously considered having more kids but not carrying them herself.
She was joined on the episode by her gal pal Bone Estrada, whom fans will recall from past episodes of Teen Mom 2.
During the episode, the pair unveiled a plan they hatched for Bone to carry the MTV star’s child.
“You just know when you’re not done having kids and you know when you are done having kids. So there was a point where I had said that I was not done having children – we’re gonna do gender selection – and then Bone was going to carry my children or child,” she said.
The Pennsylvania native went on: “An Elijah [Scott] was on board. I don’t know if your boyfriend was on board.”
Bone revealed that she “had already agreed to it” when she met her romantic partner.
