Brittany and Marcelino Santiago might be pregnant with their second child together; theres also Giovanni who Brittany had with her ex Tito. But this week on ' Life After Lockup' Brittany still can't seem to forget her first two children who she gave up for adoption when she was a teenager. 

The couple has a strong bond despite Marcelino finding it hard to trust Brittany in the beginning. They seem to have crossed the bridge where Marcelino was worried that Brittany might get back to her old habits after being released from prison. Now with the baby on the way, the couple have been trying to better their life. 

Recently we also saw Brittany's mom and sister move to Las Vegas just so they could help her out with the babies and spend more time with them. Brittany also opened up about her past where she ran away from home at the age of 12 and how she landed in prison because her parents were alcoholics. Brittany also spoke about the two kids she had to give up for adoption because she was too young to take care of them. 

Last week on 'Life After Lockup' Brittany found herself thinking about her those children and their whereabouts. We then saw her make her way down to the court to get their adoption records.

Picking up right where they left off last week, Brittany returns home from court but reveals the records didn't give her much information about her two kids since they are juveniles and their records are sealed. But she did figure out the father had been contacted and requested to get custody of the kids. 

This leaves Brittany shattered, as she claims that the birth father of her children isn't the best role model because of his past. She also finds out that he is back in prison and will be released on parole in a month. Though Marcelino tried not to let Brittany get too worked up about her first two children's whereabout, she was devastated. 

While Brittany thinks she is in a better position to look after all her children, fans claim she should let them be and not interrupt the life they are living now. 

"Brittany, leave your teenage kids ALONE? They don't need or want you. You make bad choices. Just look at your trashy tattoos. Ugh!#loveafterlockup," a fan wrote. Adding to that another said, "Brittany, your adopted children need protection from you as well as their biological father. Don’t wreck their lives with the horrific story of their creation and biological parents backstory. Brittany is being selfish. #loveafterlockup." 

"This Brittany story pisses me off. I feel bad about what happened to her, but IT ISN'T ALL ABOUT HER. Leave those adopted kids alone. Give their parents your info and then wait and stay out of it. THEY AREN'T YOUR KIDS. #lifeafterlockup #loveafterlockup," a fan shared. While another added, "Brittany if your kids were adopted then its a done deal until they're 18yo, unless the parents ok it. #loveafterlockup." 

"I feel like Brittany should leave her older kids alone tbh. If they've been adopted they're probably living a nice life. If they want to see her they'll find her. #LoveAfterLockup #LifeAfterLockup," a fan wrote.
