After years of publicly feuding with his baby mama Kail Lowry, Chris Lopez finally received some validation this week from an unlikely source– Kail’s ex-husband and second baby daddy, Javi Marroquin– though Chris insists that Javi’s words won’t ultimately improve his own strained co-parenting situation with Kail. In a series of posts on Tuesday, Chris reacted to Javi’s online dragging of their shared baby mama.
As The Ashley told you on Monday, Javi took to Instagram Live to fire off an unfiltered tirade at Kail, during which he called out the former Teen Mom 2 star for having an alleged secret boyfriend and for allegedly neglecting her parental duties for their son, Lincoln.
Amid his lengthy (and at one point, emotional) rant, Javi accused Kail of crafting “a fake persona” of a good parent on social media despite allegedly falling short in that department and for allegedly planning to move her new boyfriend into her Delaware home just months after ending things with her fiancé and fourth baby daddy, Elijah Scott. (As fans know, Kail shares eldest son Isaac with Jo Rivera; son Lincoln with Javi; sons Creed and Lux with Chris; and twins Valley and Verse and son Rio with Elijah.)
At one point during his Live, Javi also surprisingly told viewers that Chris has been speaking the truth about their shared baby mama in his (many) social media rants about her over the years.
“Everything Chris has ever said has always been right,” Javi stated, before going on to reveal that anytime he has communicated with Chris, Kail “always f**king calls me and bitches me out.”
“I just want you guys to know what we– not even just me– but what [all of Kail’s baby daddies] have to deal with,” Javi continued. “Chris is the only one who’s ever said anything.”
In response to Javi’s comments, Chris posted a snarky photo to his Instagram Story on Monday, before going on to tell followers that, although his past comments about Kail have been validated and “people are now seeing the truth,” it doesn’t change what he’s “been living.”
“ … Let’s be real…. That validation doesn’t undo anything,” Chris wrote. “It doesn’t erase the pain. It doesn’t stop the damage. It doesn’t fix the nights I lost sleep. It doesn’t fix what me and my kids have to deal with… the stuff people don’t see. The stress, the emotional toll, the moments that no camera or post ever catches.”
Chris– who, in January, accused someone of calling the police on him to report that he was harassing them by posting about a certain custody court case online– went on to reveal that he and his children are “still going through it” and that he isn’t optimistic that the latest (alleged) developments involving Kail will lead to any real change when it comes to him “fighting for [his] kids.”
“ … I’m still dealing with the same system that ignored all this when it mattered,” he wrote. “And even with proof, even with the truth out in the open, there’s a real chance the court still won’t see it for what it is because when you’re a father fighting for your kids, the truth doesn’t always get a fair hearing.
“So no,” Chris continued. “Validation isn’t justice. It’s not healing. It’s just confirmation of what I already knew. I’ve been standing on truth.”
As The Ashley previously told you, while giving his take on what had transpired in the latest court battle against Kail, Chris claimed in January that Kail had filed a new Protection From Abuse (PFA) order against him for allegedly “harassing and posting about them online.” Though Chris has admitted to being physically abusive towards Kail in the past and stated that her previous PFA against him was warranted, he insisted that the latest one had been filed without merit and accused her of “abusing the system.”
Chris also alleged at the time that Kail, whom he never mentioned by name, prefers to have their court dates in a certain county that she feels gives preference to mothers over fathers. He also noted that Kail and her (now former) fiancé Elijah had allegedly gotten physical with his sons and refused to let the boys speak to him when they wanted to. He also accused Kail of once lying about her income during the child support process, among other things.
On Tuesday, Chris returned to social media for a Q&A that was largely focused on his current situation with Kail, during which he revealed that, in order to “remain positive and level-minded,” he goes to the gym, prays and focuses on the “end goal”; however, he said he still struggles “really bad,” claiming that May was a particularly rough month for him.
Chris was also asked about his relationship with Javi, to which he said that, despite the two nearly coming to blows the first time they saw each other, they’ve “come a long way” over the years.
” … Now, when we cross paths there’s mutual respect…communication…even laughs,” he wrote. “It’s different now because we’re not in the same toxic space we once were. We’re not being pulled into chaos by someone who benefits from division. We’ve both grown, matured, and realized the only thing that truly matters is the kids. And when the focus is on the children…not drama…not ego…not the past, everything runs smoother.”
Chris was also asked by one of his followers if a part of him sympathizes with Kail, to which he claimed he cannot.
“I can’t sympathize with someone who moves the way they do,” Chris replied. “Someone who shows no remorse, no accountability, no real care for anyone but herself, who can hurt people, lie, manipulate and walk around like it’s justified like the truth doesn’t matter.
“I can’t feel bad for that,” he continued. “I can’t respect that and I damn sure can’t sympathize with it.”
