Teen Mom OG's Maci Had An Emotional Breakthrough With Ryan's Parents

An arrest. A restraining group. Ninety days in rehab. A brand-new baby. Maci, Ryan, Bentley, Jen, Larry, and the full Edwards/McKinney crew have endured so much this season on Teen Mom OG. Yet on tonight’s season finale, the blended family member had an emotional breakthrough, putting the past aside and vowing to move forward for their sake and, most importantly, for Bentley’s.


As Ryan readied himself to come house soon after 90 days in treatment, Maci and Taylor met up with his parents, who talked on their son’s behalf, to discuss what was next in regard to Bentley. They told Maci that Ryan wanted to be a more involved co-parent and not feel like the males “uncle” and that he was apologetic for a lot of the decisions he’d made.


“I guess because the sober Ryan, he just wants to feel like he matters,” Mimi cried.


Right following the couples agreed that it was Ryan’s addiction, not Ryan, that was to blame for several of their familial struggles — Larry bawled recalling the rift he and his son had — Maci confessed that one thing that never wavered was her love for the whole Edwards crew.


“I love you both and Ryan, and that will never go away,” Maci cried, adding that they should all continue to be able to see each other and go to counseling.
