Why did Chelsea DoBoer quit ‘Teen Mom’ star?
Chelsea DeBoer decided to leave the "Teen Mom" franchise as a heartfelt commitment to protect her daughter Aubree Lind-DeBoer's privacy. Despite feeling uncertain about what the future held after leaving the show, Chelsea, 31, expressed that she was at peace with her decision to ET.
She admitted that leaving the MTV series, after more than a decade, was initially scary. However, now that she's no longer sharing her personal life on TV, Chelsea feels a significant sense of relief, describing it as the "hugest weight" lifted off her shoulders.
"I feel so proud of the show and to share the show," she added. "There were times where I'd be so nervous about Teen Mom airing because I'd feel guilty -- Did I share too much? Did I share something that should have been kept personal to my kids? And I just don't feel that at all [with this show]. You still do get to see a little bit with the kids, but I feel like it's very lighthearted."
