Aug. 13 2013, Published 1:19 p.m. ET
It's been a whirlwind 24 hours for Teen Mom 3 star Mackenzie Douthit, whose putting some of the show's other stars to shame with her itchy social media finger, as she's suggested she's married, declared she's pregnant, and had an online meltdown within the span of a day.
The 18-year-old first took to her Facebook Monday, declaring, "And yes. For everyone wondering, im 12 weeks pregnant.... time to tell the truth."
She then jumped onto Twitter and wrote she's "been married for months but im not allowed to get pregs with my husband without miami girls subtweeting... do i look like I care????" (Subtweeting is short for subliminally tweeting, calling someone out on Twitter without actually mentioning their name.)
Of course, Mackenzie, who has a 1-year-old son named Gannon, got plenty of reactions for her life-changing proclamations, and followed up with a Facebook post on why it took her so long to break her silence about the marriage and pregnancy, saying she didn't want to be roasted by her peers over her actions.
