LEAH Messer’s eight-year-old daughter Addie seemed all “grown-up” in new Instagram photos as she prepared for her soccer tournament.
The Teen Mom 2 star recently faced backlash for making the child complete her own Covid test.
Leah, 29, took to Instagram to share two new photos of her daughter Addie, 8, as she prepared for a soccer tournament.
The elementary schooler posed with a friend in their soccer attire all while sticking out her tongue and making funny faces.
The reality star captioned her post: “These kiddos are ready for their soccer tournament this weekend. 
P.S @nstegall_ I’m pretty sure that I said I’d never be a soccer mom – time to switch the Denali out for a minivan 
#jk.”
Fans rushed to the comments to share their shock over how grown up Leah’s youngest daughter is, as they called her “so big” and “adorable.”
“Omg she’s gotten so big too fast I can’t believe it, good luck at the tournament!!” one gushed.
“Addie’s getting so big. She’s so adorable and funny. Good luck in her soccer career,” a second agreed.
“Oh my goodness I didn’t even realize that was Addie. How time flies!” another admitted.
“Why does she look about 15 all of a sudden,” a final asked, before adding: “All your girls are lovely xx.”
Despite the positive fan feedback over Addie’s soccer career, Leah recently faced controversy when she made her three kids administer their own Covid tests.
During an episode of Teen Mom, the TV personality expressed concern over her kids getting the virus, saying that the situation made her “really anxious.”
After her confessional, the cameras watched as Leah instructed her child: “Lean your head back a little bit,” as Addie stuck the swab up her nasal cavity.
“Good job, you take it better than most people,” she praised, as Addie moved the swab through her nose canal uncomfortably.
Later in the episode, Leah also made her two older daughters, twins Ali and Aleeah, 11, swab their own noses as well.
Despite fan backlash in regards to her parenting, the MTV star has seemed unbothered as she recently partied with friends in Virginia Beach.
The young parent flaunted her curves in a red bikini and white macrame coverup while laughing and joking with three companions.
Alongside several photos of the girls posing and cheersing their drinks, Leah wrote: “Chillin’ with my sea squad celebrating two birthday Queens! 
“@nstegall_ & @nishaaa06 I hope your birthdays were just as amazing as you both are! It was an unforgettable and much needed weekend. I LOVE YALL!”
Leah and her ex Corey Simms have expressed concerns over their daughter Ali’s health of late, as the child suffers from Titin Myotonic muscular dystrophy.
The parents recently invested in a new wheelchair for their daughter, after raising concerns over her difficulties with walking and previous incidents of dangerous falls.
While cameras were rolling the West Virginia native explained to her pre-teen: “My job as a mom is to protect you and keep you safe. I’m always going to worry.”
