New Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant star Rachel Beaver's life has been difficult even before she got pregnant at 16 years old. RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal Rachel’s mom, Stephanie Bollen, who has appeared on the MTV show, has been sued multiple times for failing to pay child support.
In court papers obtained from Cobb County Court, the Human Resources Department sued Stephanie on April 30, 2008 for recovery of child support for her three daughters Malorie, Rachel and Carter.
Stephanie has “failed, neglected or refused to provide adequate and timely support for said minor children,” the court papers claimed. She was also required to provide accident and sickness coverage for the children and/or health insurance.
Stephanie was served, but failed to appear in court, the papers claimed. She was ordered to pay $350.16 per month starting September 1, 2008.
Then on December 30, 2009, a complaint for contempt was filed when Stephanie “willfully failed and refused to comply with said order.” She owed $3,612.29.
On February 1, 2011, the Plaintiff dismissed the case without prejudice because they were “unable to locate the defendant.”
Then on April 19, 2013, a Complaint for Contempt was filed against Stephanie. As of February 28, 2013, she owed $17,495.73 in child support.
She was served on June 21, 2013. An arrest order was issued on July 18, 2013 when she failed to appear in court.
By February 28, 2014, she owed $20,889.30 in child support.
The warrant was returned on March 4, 2014. The Cobb County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to RadarOnline.com that they have no record of an arrest for outstanding child support.
She was ordered to pay $70.03 per month towards the debt. An Income Deduction Order was made effective immediately.

Can’t Hide!
The family moved from Georgia to Tennessee. In court papers obtained from Monroe County Circuit Court, Stephanie was hit with a Petition for Registration of Foreign Judgment on April 20, 2016. She owed $21,384.16 in child support.
Stephanie’s Side
Stephanie filed a motion to dismiss, claiming the Petitioner “has failed in material respects to comply with the rule and such requires the dismissal of the Petition.”
Her Truth?
The court papers continued, “The respondent cannot properly assess possible defenses or other responsive pleadings until such time as the Petition is properly filed and served upon her.”
Court Docs Revealed
Stephanie then filed an Answer to Petition for Registration of Foreign Judgment. “She does not deny being in arrears with the State of Georgia as of the entry of the Order setting the same at $6,305.54 and would show the Court that she has been paying on the same regularly and but for the lack of information being made available by Georgia DCS to date may have satisfied the bulk of that arrearage,” the court papers read.
Order Revealed
An agreed order revealed, “This matter only pertains to the $4,176.84 in arrears owed to the state of Georgia.” A judgment was granted in that amount.
Deal!
She agreed to pay $50 a month in past due child support.
Sad Childhood
On Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant, Rachel opened up about her mother’s past battling addiction.
New Life
It appears Stephanie has turned her life around, as she has been supportive on the show. She even helped throw Rachel’s baby shower.
Baby Daddy Drama
As viewers know, Rachel believes her baby daddy is longtime boyfriend Drew. But it could be his best friend Jacob, as she’s been on-and-off with them both.
Pregnant & Alone
Because she’s not 100 percent sure of who the baby daddy is, Drew hasn’t been involved in her pregnancy.
Absent Dad?
“My biggest fear for my baby is that her dad is going to jump in and out of her life like he does mine,” she said in a “Meet Rachel” clip.
Rachel’s Fears
She added in the video, “I don’t want him to show up and her get attached to him and then him just disappear out of no where and break her heart.”
Helping Out!
Fortunately for Rachel, Jacob vowed to be involved in the baby’s life even if she's Drew’s daughter.
Who’s The Dad?
“Jacob would definitely care more for Hazlee and take care for her a lot better than Drew would, I hope the baby is Jacob's,” she said.
