‘Teen Mom 2’: Pregnant Chelsea Houska has Covid-19 scare as husband shows all symptoms, gets tested

Chelsea says she is pregnant and it’s very important that she and everyone around her is perfectly healthy

Chelsea Houska, currently pregnant, had a Covid-19 scare previously when she thought she might have contracted the disease. This time she was scared for her husband who showed many symptoms of the virus and asked him to get tested. A preview of the next episode of ‘Teen Mom 2’ was posted by its official Twitter handle with the caption, “On Tuesday’s #TeenMom2, @ChelseaHouska’s anxieties about catching COVID during her pregnancy are at an all-time high."

The video starts with Chelsea’s voiceover saying she is pregnant and it’s very important that she and everyone around her is perfectly healthy. So when husband Cole DeBoer started feeling sick the family collectively decided that he should get tested. In the video we can see Cole driving to the Covid testing center. He says, “Woke up this morning feeling like garbage,” and that he explained to Chelsea’s doctor how he was feeling and was told the symptoms he had were all symptoms of Coronavirus. He said with their little kids in the house and Chelsea being pregnant he would, “rather just know and not wonder.”

Before doing the test we could see in the video that Cole was nervous of having, “the thing shoved in the nose.” After the test Cole says, “I'm pretty sure they touched my f*****g brain.” The video ends with Chelsea going over that fact that she herself had a Covid scare so she totally understands how her husband might be feeling. “It’s hard to like just be patient and wait for your results to come out,” says Chelsea. She hopes for the best case scenario where he is negative but she said she just couldn't help but worry everytime someone gets sick during these troubled times.

Chelsea gave fans an update on her growing belly on August 6. “I swear I already have a bump and I’m fairly early, but I guess once the fourth baby [comes], you just be popping right away,” she said on her Instagram Story. “It still feels crazy that everybody knows… I was so afraid that I was going to say something because I am such a bad liar and not good at hiding things so I haven’t been on social media. But I am so excited to share this whole process with you.”

'Teen Mom 2' airs on Tuesdays at 8 pm ET on MTV.
