The site also claims that the second driver was taken to the hospital, but that Edwards refused and was instead picked up by a friend. 

The MTV star is the father of Bookout's 6-year-old son Bentley and got his start in reality TV on the first season of 16 and Pregnant. Bookout, 23, took to Twitter on Saturday, Dec. 13 to update fans on her ex's condition. 

"Ryan was involved in a car accident yesterday, the articles 'reporting the story' have many errors in their facts. Thankfully Ryan is okay!" she tweeted after posting a new picture on Instagram with her grown-up-looking tot.
