Chelsea Houska Quits Teen Mom 2
Farewell to this auburn hair and little Aubree! Teen Mom 2 star Chelsea Houska is leaving the MTV franchise for good. According to the blog The Ashley's Reality Roundup, the expecting mother announced her decision to leave the program while filming the show's Season 10 reunion special. A source told the outlet that Chelsea informed producers of her decision in early October 2020 but waited until her final appearance to tell her cast members and the rest of the crew.
"The girls were filming from their homes, along with Dr. Drew [Pinsky] and Nessa, and at the end when all of the girls were on-screen together with [the hosts], they let Chelsea make her announcement to them," the insider dished to The Ashley.
"Chelsea told everyone that she has decided that it's best for her family if they move on from the show, and that it was a really hard decision, but that she feels like a weight has been lifted from her shoulders," the source continued to explain. "It's obvious Chelsea's life doesn't really fit the show anymore, though," the insider added. "The girls were all supportive of her decision, but no one else announced that they were leaving."

Chelsea Houska's dad was first to confirm the news
Although Teen Mom 2's Chelsea Houska has yet to go public with the news, her father, Randy Houska, confirmed her retirement on Twitter. "Well kids, that's a wrap. Been a fun run on @MTV @TeenMom #teenmom2 What's next? Seriously, tho, it has been a part of @ChelseaHouska entire adult life. We all expanded our horizons and grew as people #NoRegrets See ya all on the flip side," he wrote on Oct. 30, 2020 while sharing a link to The Ashley's reporting.
Several fans commented on Randy's post, sending well-wishes to the mom as she embarks on the next chapter of her life.

But I wish her luck on all the amazing opportunities that will come her way!" another Twitter user added.
Chelsea has been a part of Teen Mom 2 since the show first aired in 2010. She was one of the four original members of the franchise. Since she welcomed her daughter Aubree with ex-boyfriend Adam Lind, fans have seen her develop into the woman she is today. She went on to marry Cole DeBoer and the happy couple share two children and have another on the way. We wish Chelsea all the best now that she's a mature mama and no longer a teen mom.
