FANS were convinced that Sean Austin got new teeth after Jade Cline shared a selfie of him flashing his pearly whites.
The Teen Mom 2 dad recently returned home from rehab after battling ongoing substance abuse issues.
Fans were convinced he celebrated the end of treatment with a brand new set of teeth after Jade, 24, shared a photo with her baby daddy.
The couple enjoyed a sunny day in Redondo Beach, California, and snapped a selfie to commemorate the fun.
In the image, the reality star sported reading glasses, her hair in a messy bun, and a black tee-shirt.
Sean, also 24, beamed next to his girlfriend, showing off a full beard, diamond chain, and bright shiny smile.
Re-shared by the fan account @teenmom.tea, many rushed to the comments to share their speculation about the young dad’s teeth.
“Sean’s showing off his new smile,” the account captioned the post.
“Got a bag and fixed his teeth,” a second joked, as he was cast in the recent Teen Mom spinoff.
“Nice ok sean has some beautiful teeth,” another admitted.
“Free set of veneers!?” a fourth asked, while another inquired: “I don’t understand were his teeth nor good before?”
“He got them teeth fixed!” a final noted.
SEAN’S STRUGGLE
Sean’s new smile followed the TV mom opening up about his difficult addiction battle on Teen Mom Family Reunion.
In an emotional scene, Jade revealed that he voluntarily checked himself into a facility.
A preview was shared on the Teen Mom official Instagram page, which captured the difficult moment the 24-year-old left for treatment.
In the clip, Jade explained her ex’s decision and talked about how she grappled with his addiction in a confessional interview saying: “My life has definitely been harder.”
Cameras also captured Sean walking out the front door with luggage, as he was seemingly on his way to the facility.
Viewers were already aware that Sean had entered rehab after the young mom discussed his whereabouts during the season premiere of the spin-off series Teen Mom Family Reunion.
While many of her co-star’s significant others were in attendance, Jade opted to bring her BFF Chau along instead of Sean, leaving some to question his absence.
While talking to her fellow Teen Mom stars, Jade admitted: “My kid’s dad is in the same rehab facility, I guess, that one of his family members went to.”
She added: “He’s been there for about a month and a half and he comes back in like two and a half months.”
Clips followed Sean’s struggle with addiction in the past, which included a Teen Mom 2 scene in which Jade explained he punched a hole through a window.
MAKING CHANGES
Following the episode’s air date, the TV personality updated fans on Sean’s progress in an Instagram Q&A.
After a fan praised Sean and wished them both good luck in the future, Jade shared a lengthy message with further explanation.
“This is the first time anyone has known about Sean going to rehab,” she wrote, confessing that during the time they were filming, Sean was across the country in “intense” rehab.
“It was so hard doing it all, but I knew I had to step up and take care of everything so he could better himself.
“Sobriety is hard but he’s made it.”
