Amber Portwood is officially a mother of two! The Teen Mom OG star gave birth to a baby boy named James with her boyfriend, Andrew Glennon, a rep for the star exclusively confirms to Us Weekly. The couple welcomed their son on Tuesday, May 8.
James was born at 1:39 a.m. and weighed 7 pounds, 11 ounces.
Portwood, 27, also shares 9-year-old daughter Leah with her ex-fiancé, Gary Shirley.
The Never Too Late author opened up to Us in March about staying physically and mentally healthy during her pregnancy.
“I’m on medication for depression now that’s safe for pregnant women, because it was getting pretty bad and we had a scare that maybe I would fall into a postpartum depression after the baby,” Portwood explained at the time. “But everything’s going smoothly.”
“I just want a healthy baby. I want everybody — me, Gary, [his wife] Kristina, Andrew — to blend together and stop the back-and-forth,” she continued. “I have a really calm, chill life and I’m happy for the first time, genuinely.”
Us Weekly exclusively confirmed in November that the MTV personality was expecting her first child with the cinematographer. The couple started dating in summer 2017 after meeting on the set of Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition.
Portwood told Us in March that she and Glennon “haven’t talked about marriage or anything like that.”
“We’re happy where we’re at,” she explained. “If it happens, it happens, and there’s no rush.”
