Amber Portwood To Fight Gary Shirley For Full Custody Of Leah?

Teen Mom OG Amber Portwood

Is there a Teen Mom OG custody battle happening behind the scenes? In a preview of tonight’s episode, Amber Portwood declared that she plans to fight Gary Shirley for custody of their six-year-old daughter Leah. Amber voluntarily gave full custody of Leah to Gary in 2011.

In the clip, Amber meets up with Dr. Drew while promoting her book, Never Too Late. When Dr. Drew asked Amber how often Gary allows her to see Leah, she shared, “Since she started school, it’s been weird because he’s acting weird. He won’t let me have her on the days she is in school, which is Monday through Friday. Something’s going to happen because I will be getting her.”

Dr. Drew asked, “Full custody?” Amber nodded, adding, “I will.”

Amber went on to say that Gary‘s refusal to let her see Leah during the week was a new development. “This just started, because I wasn’t going to be doing anything about the custody,” she said. “I think maybe communication first and then after that we’ll see what happens, and if he doesn’t want to budge, then I just have to do what I have to do.”

I don’t know what to think about this. On one hand, Gary has ALWAYS played games with Amber, so I sympathize with her. On the other hand, Gary stepped up and took care of Leah when Amber couldn’t. Leah seems like a happy and well-adjusted little girl, for which Gary deserves all the credit, and I would hate to see her subjected to a nasty fight.

Tonight on Teen Mom, in addition to Amber‘s book tour, Tyler upsets Teresa and Brandon when he posts a video of Carly on social media and Maci tries to communicate with Ryan. Sadly there’s no mention of Farrah Abraham in the episode synopsis. Reality Tea will be live tweeting during the show. Join us.
