Unlike many of Amber’s ex-boyfriends, Gary has never watched her on the MTV franchise. “All the guys Amber has dated before she met on social media and were fans of the show,” the source shared. “This new man in her life has actually never seen Teen Mom so she feels she can finally date in the way she’s always wanted to.”
Gary made his debut on Teen Mom: The Next Chapter during the June 6, 2024, episode, with Amber formally introducing him to her costars as her “boyfriend” during a group Zoom call. “We are now officially a couple,” she added.
