Her husband, Tyler Baltierra, continues to be a strong support system for his wife. On Thanksgiving, the CEO of Tierra Reign retweeted a Teen Mom OG clip featuring Lowell and wrote, “My god! My wife looks absolutely beautiful in this #HappyThanksgiving @TeenMom clip!  It’s going to be a rough holiday without being able to kiss her & tell her how thankful I am for her, but we have a strong resilience crafted by our past, we got this!”  The Conquering Chaos authors have been married since 2015.

Baltierra also praised his wife for seeking treatment on November 18 after he took her to an undisclosed facility: “Incredibly proud of my wife…when she thought she had no choices left, she reached out & decided to LIVE today! My life would be desolate without her in it. You are beautiful, strong, worthy, & loved @CatelynnLowell.”
