One fan desired to know: “Do you share custody with Josh?”
Her answer was alarming: “Can’t even reach him,” with a shrugging emoji, “Wish him well though.”
Josh McKee is the Teen Mom’s ex-husband and the father of her two sons and daughter – Gannon, Broncs, and Jaxie respectively.
The couple started dating in 2009 and they got married in 2013.
Almost a decade of marriage later, Mackenzie confirmed that she was headed for divorce from Josh.
MAJOR SPLIT
In the same Q&A session, the MTV star made a heartbreaking confession that her break from Josh probably saved her life.
One follower asked: “When did you really realize it was over in your last relationship?” before adding that the poster was “struggling” as well.
Mackenzie held nothing back and said: “When that switch happens, it’s over! My business was going down because I no longer valued myself.

“I was told I was ugly and no good every day of my life. So how could I wake up and have the strength to even live?”
She finished her statement with: “I didn’t want to leave, I HAD to or I was going to die.”
Fans on Reddit showed the mother of three a lot of support after her confession.
One said: “Yes. I believe it. I remember when she said she wanted to unalive and he yelled at her to go ahead and ran off. He is a real garbage person.”
Another said: “He’s a total piece of s**t that would resort to degrading her in that way. He knows her insecurities better than anyone else. I dislike her as a person but have no doubt she’s been abused.”
A third chimed in: “If someone finds a button to push, and they are evil, they push it as much as possible. She’s believable to me.”
HAPPIER NOW
After her split from Josh, she jumped into a new relationship and debuted her new man in December.
First, she hinted at her new relationship with a cryptic selfie on Twitter where she was cuddling with a mystery man.
The TV personality smiled brightly while wrapped in a blanket with her unknown beau and captioned the post with a heart emoji.
The man appeared again at the beginning of January on her Instagram Story where he popped out of a pantry dancing with a packet of cookies in his hands.
A few weeks later, the young mom posted and then deleted a tweet about her relationship.
She tweeted: “Funny how in my relationship, people are warning me about things he might do. Those things being everything my ex-husband did.
“All because of his outward appearance. But no one warned me about it when I was with a white countryman.”
