Chelsea Houska is bidding goodbye to 'Teen Mom 2'. The reality star reportedly made this shocking announcement when she was filming for the Season 10 reunion episode with the rest of the cast members. As per The Ashley's Reality Roundup, the producers knew about her exit for a long time. 

However, this was new news for the rest of the cast members who were present when she made the announcement. "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," said the source. 

"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 added. "The girls were all supportive of her decision, but no one else announced that they were leaving."

Chelsea has been currently occupied with her fashion brand and has been working on it all the time. She often posts about her latest collection on her social media. The latest season also showed viewers a glimpse of how she had been doing in her business. While the show has been renewed for Season 10B, there is no news of Season 11. 

Chelsea's exit also opens the door for another teen mom to enter the show. If MTV follows its previous route, chances are they will bring someone from another 'Teen Mom' franchise to fill up the spot. However, no announcements have been made yet. Fans were not too happy to hear about this news as one wrote, "Oh that’s a bummer l did enjoy watching her story, cause she got her s**t together."

"I am sad. She is the one who was an example of how your life can change and be happy and positive. She also has the best supporter of a husband and great cuties as children. She is a breath of fresh air after one who whines about how it is so hard without the dad’s though she bitches when they want to be involved or sleeps with them she also has a very supportive mom and sister," wrote one user. I have learned to appreciate Jade but hope she puts herself first with Sean and their daughter and still supports the other two originals. "She was my favorite," read another comment. 

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