Maci Bookout’s Teen Mom OG costars — minus Farrah Abraham — congratulated her on her new baby, who she welcomed this week with fiancé Taylor McKinney. Incidentally, Bookout’s bundle of joy arrived on Tuesday, May 31, Abraham’s 25th birthday.
Bookout’s friend and Teen Mom OG castmate Amber Portwood was the first to take to social media to share her enthusiasm over the Bulletproof author’s latest addition to her family, a boy named Maverick Reed.
“Congratulations @MaciBookoutMTV love you!!,” Portwood, 26, wrote.

Fellow 16 & Pregnant alum Catelynn Lowell also sent a sweet message to the now-mom-of-three: “@AmberLPortwood@MaciBookoutMTV miss you two ladies! Maci congratulations on that precious prince.”
As Us Weekly previously reported, Bookout, 24, welcomed her little one with McKinney, with whom she also shares daughter Jayde Carter, 12 months.
The MTV personality announced the exciting news via Twitter: “Mr. Maverick Reed has officially made his debut & completed our family. So much love, so many blessings!”
However, Abraham has not yet acknowledged Bookout’s happy news. The entrepreneur — who now shares the same birthday as baby Maverick — was busy not only celebrating the big 2-5, but also opening her new yogurt shop, FroCo, in Austin, Texas.
“Thank you for all the Birthday Love!,” the reality starlet and mom of Sophia, 7, tweeted on Tuesday. “Can’t wait2see everyone tonight celebrate my dream Grand Opening @FroCoCoba.”

As fans will recall, the young mothers have had a fraught relationship ever since Bookout criticized Abraham for participating in two adult films, Farrah Superstar: Backdoor Teen Mom and its sequel, Farrah 2: Backdoor and More.
The drama came to a head when Bookout refused to let her 7-year-old son, Bentley (who she shares with ex-fiancé Ryan Edwards), film for Teen Mom OG, so as not to have him associated with Abraham, “the one who did a sex tape.” Their fallout played out on MTV in May 2015.
“Hey Maci, why are you here?” an angry Abraham shouted on a heated episode of Teen Mom OG. “I think you should not be here because you don’t want to be here. Bye-bye! My life’s not about porn. I have a child too, I see her every day, and it doesn’t affect her. If it was about Bentley, that would be something else. Bentley doesn’t even know my name.”
“I don’t feel like I need to apologize,” Bookout replied at the time. “I’m not going to change what I think is right for my own son just because I hurt your feelings.”
