‘CHILDISH’
While the MTV stars eventually came clean to their producers, fans made it clear that they believe the friend were immature for the prank.
Taking to Reddit, many Teen Mom 2 fans agreed that Kailyn and Leah act “so childish together.”
One fan wrote: “I’d be so annoyed by this. These are women nearly 30. Grow the f**k up Kail.”
An additional fan asked: “but why? this isn’t ‘quirky’ lol. it’s just causing a panic and wasting peoples time.”
In response to the prank, a following person added: “This is humiliating,”
A fourth chimed in: “Omg this is cringe. They think they’re the Kardashians or something. It must be nice having executive producers to call anytime you get arrested (like Jenelle and Amber). Whatever these girls do, MTV will make sure they cover it up.”
Kailyn and Leah heavily documented their trip on social media as they highlighted spending quality time together.
Throughout the trip, the TV stars flaunted their bodies in swimsuits and opened up about if they would join the cast of 90 Day Fiancé.
Leah was even able to meet Kailyn’s 1-year-old son Creed for the first time during the vacation.
