Amber Portwood’s fraught relationship with daughter Leah has been documented on Teen Mom OG over the years.

Portwood gave birth to her baby girl in 2008 with then-boyfriendGary Shirley. The former couple split three years later, with Shirley going on to wed Kristina Anderson, with whom he shares daughter Emilee.

As for Portwood, the MTV personality is also the mother of son James with Andrew Glennon, whom she lost custody of in 2022 following a three-year court battle over a 2019 domestic violence incident.

Her relationship with Leah, meanwhile, has been strained over the years due to Portwood’s substance abuse issues, mental health problems and previous prison time.

“I feel like I’m never going to win,” Portwood said during a September 2021 episode of the MTV show, claiming that her daughter was “acting weird” and had “turned” on her. “I wanted us to have a great coparenting family that I thought we had until it became weird.”

Portwood added at the time: “This is not [Leah]. She does not ignore me like this. Even if I take responsibility for every single wrongdoing I’ve ever done, it just feels like it’s never enough.”
