'Teen Mom OG Special': Cory Wharton and Taylor Selfridge welcome their baby girl amid coronavirus lockdown
Cory Wharton and Taylor Selfridge welcomed their first child, a baby girl recently and in the upcoming 'Teen Mom OG' special, the pair will be revealing some behind the scenes of what went down as they came close to the birth of their child. MTV will be releasing 'Teen Mom OG At Home: Cory & Taylor’s Baby Special' on June 9.
This special will document Taylor's pregnancy journey while reflecting on how Cory and Cheyenne Floyd were there for her throughout the journey. The episode will also highlight how the couple had been dealing with their everyday life after coronavirus pandemic forced everyone to quarantine at home. It is hard to have a life while staying at home but it is harder to be expecting parents while the pandemic affects the entire world. In the self-shot episode, Taylor and Cory can be seen gearing up to welcome the baby. The sneak peek shows Taylor telling the baby that she would be coming to a world where people have been roaming in masks.
Things do not get easier for the couple as it is revealed Cory is not allowed to be in the birthing room with Taylor because of the rules that have been put in place due to Covid-19. Since the risk of a newborn getting infected is more, there have been rules in place to make sure everyone is safe and sound. However, Taylor was not happy to hear this. She broke down crying and felt emotional and scared about not having Cory by her side. Despite this, the couple stuck through it all and welcomed their baby girl. Taylor and Cory were excited to announce their pregnancy and parts of their journey had been shown on the show.
Unfortunately, Cory could not be there for Taylor during the initial months as he had to leave to shoot for 'The Challenge'. However, he made it a point to call Taylor often and check on how the baby was doing. After he returned from the shoot, he was excited to see Taylor's baby bump showing and looked forward to becoming a father again.
The one hour special will document their highs and lows as they expand their family.
