Teen Mom Stars Catelynn & Tyler Baltierra Host The Own Podcast Series, Cate & Ty Break It Down
Catelynn first rose to prominence in 2009 when appearing on 16 & Pregnant. She later appeared on the spin-off series, Teen Mom.
Catelynn and Tyler Baltierra saw the birth of their first child in 2009, who was named Carly by her adoptive parents. The couple married in 2015. Since then, they have had three daughters together, Novalee Reign, Vaeda Luma, and Rya Rose.

The couple is also known for hosting the podcast series, Cate & Ty Break It Down. On social media, however, Catelynn recently got fans worried about her appearance in a recent video.
One fan shared a photo of Catelynn, noting, “Cate on her new podcast & she doesn’t look well.” They continued, “REGARDLESS of what has been happening, she really doesn’t seem okay! She looks so sad! I hope she can get into some type of serious therapy. ( I’m not sure if she’s still seeing her old therapist) she should really stay off social media and just be with her family.”
Taking to the comments, many fans shared similar sentiments. In particular, looking back at the podcast, many viewers felt that Tyler did most of the talking during the conversation.
Some noted that Catelynn and Tyler are still dealing with the adoption of their first child. As previously reported, back in September, it was reported that they were blocked by Carly’s adoptive parents.
Fans Were Worried For Catelynn’s Physical & Mental Well-Being
However, some fans also felt that multiple things could be impacting Catelynn. As one fan noted, “She doesn’t get any enjoyment out of life. She looks like she’s just existing and nothing else. I don’t think it’s all about the adoption either. I don’t think she knows how to be anything other than miserable.”
A few were also worried about her physical health. As one fan wrote, “Cate has never been tiny, but she’s put on a lot of weight very quickly it seems. It’s not hard to relate that to the prolonged meltdown she’s been having the last year or so. She looks absolutely beat down, mentally. The body truly does keep the score.”
Another suggested, “It could be antidepressants. They packed weight on me overnight, it seems. Still trying to get rid of it”
Fans weighed in on what could be affecting Catelynn at this time. A few also looked back at her earlier times on MTV. Some comments included:
- “I recently saw a flashback from an old episode and she has completely lost the spark and life in her eyes, it’s really sad.”
- “She’s a mom and a wife and…. What else exactly? She’s a podcaster but she’s only doing that because that’s what’s popular right now. Not because she’s passionate about it.”
- “I think it’s a great viewpoint I hadn’t thought about before. She may be focusing so hard on this adoption peril because everything else is s***.”
- “At a certain depression point you don’t even feel or live in your body anymore. You are in your head, disconnected, faking it through life. Going through the motions. She looks like she’s down deep. Been there.”
- “Weight aside, my first thought was the color of her skin. It’s almost grey.”
- “The eyes, tell more than words could ever say.”
