Jade, 23, took part in an Instagram Q&A with her followers as she allowed her fans to ask questions about her life.
After a series of inquiries about her cosmetic procedures, tattoos, and her past in cosmetology school, the mom of one was asked about her childhood.
“You were adapted [sic]?” one inquired, to which the TV personality responded: “No. I was in foster care then aged out.”
A second follower then asked: “You said in foster care, so is your mom not your real mom, sorry I don’t know the whole story.”
Jade then explained her familial dynamic, admitting: “Long story on how I ended up there. But yes my mom is my biological mom. I was in foster care when I was in high school then ended up aging out.”
The MTV star’s confession comes just one month after she shared with fans her hopes to adopt her next child.
“I plan on adopting my next child,” she explained in another Instagram story.
“There are a lot of children in the system that need homes, I plan to foster to adopt.”
Jade already shares her three-year-old daughter Kloie with her on-and-off again boyfriend Sean Austin.
The young mom also expressed that she had a timeline in mind, saying she would be ready when “Klo is around five or six.”
Fans were unsure about the choice, though, as many reminded her of the serious nature of adoption.
“The entire point of the foster system is REUNIFICATION – not adoption,” one reminded, while another referenced her broken family life, explaining: “Her intentions are good, however, her home life is not.”
In January of 2020, The Celeb Report exclusively disclosed that Jade and Sean had been court-ordered to pay thousands of dollars in an eviction battle.
The couple had stopped paying rent for their Indiana home featured on the television show.
Additionally, Jade’s mother and step-father were arrested in 2019 for possession of meth and suffer from drug addiction.
The brunette’s boyfriend also struggled with drug problems, but she recently announced that he has been clean for a “very long time.”
A fan asked the star about Sean’s parenting, writing: “How are things with Sean? Is he involved in yours and Kloie’s lives?”
“Sean is involved. He has really changed over the last year. He has really impressed me,” she gushed.
“He’s been clean for a very long time and completely turned his life around. He’s a great dad. I always knew he had it in him. That’s why I was always so tough on him. Sometimes people need tough love.
“But also a big credit to him because he wanted to change. I thank God for that everyday. Klo deserves an amazing dad and she has that.
“Me and him both agree that breaking the cycle is so important to us.”
