Teen Mom OG star Amber Portwood and her ex-boyfriend, Andrew Glennon, are in a heated custody battle. As previously reported by The Inquisitr , Amber reportedly filed court documents recently that claimed Andrew interfered with her parenting time over the holidays. Now, a new report from TMZ sheds some more light on the incident, including details about an alleged dog bite that occurred.
According to TMZ , Andrew reportedly contacted Amber on Christmas Day to let her know about an incident that occurred in which their son was “nipped” by a family dog. Their son reportedly had to be seen at the emergency room to take care of the injury. However, Amber claims she never received information about the emergency room visit and that she wasn’t shown a photo of the bite until three days after it allegedly occurred.
The photo Amber received supposedly showed her son with a “black eye” as well as a “bandaged nose, indicating that the injury was more than a ‘nip.’”
The couple allegedly agreed not to share photos of their son on social media as part of their custody agreement, but Amber claimed that, on New Year’s Eve, Andrew posted a photo of their young son on his Instagram account.
Amber wants Andrew held “in contempt of court” for the alleged custody violation, details TMZ . Since she claims she did not receive her visitation with her son over the holiday, she is also reportedly seeking more parenting time to “make up for” what she lost over Christmas. She is also asking that her legal expenses be paid for by Andrew.
Amber and Andrew announced their relationship in late 2017. The two met while Amber was filming Marriage Boot Camp . Not long after going public, Amber announced she was pregnant. She gave birth to her second child, baby James, in 2018. In July 2019, Amber was arrested for an alleged domestic attack against Andrew, though Amber struck a plea deal that kept her out of jail. Since then, Amber and Andrew have been involved in a heated custody battle, which includes Andrew wanting to relocate back to California.
Teen Mom OG is set to return to MTV sometime this year. As previously reported by The Inquisitr , the new season will talk about Amber’s arrest and will show her co-stars’ reactions to the event. Last year, Maci Bookout, Catelynn Lowell, and Cheyenne Floyd traveled to Indiana to be there for Amber at one of her court hearings.
