MTV hit major success with the reality television series 16 and Pregnant which debuted in 2009. With six seasons, each season featured an episode focused on a different pregnant teenage girl in high school who was dealing with becoming pregnant at a young age. As fans know, producers then picked four girls each from seasons 1, 2 and 4 to participate in the spin-off shows Teen Mom OG, Teen Mom 2, and Teen Mom 3. While viewers could keep up with those twelve ladies, many wonder what ever happened to the other 16 and Pregnant stars who didn’t get to continue their on-screen work. Check out whatever happened to these 10 stars from 16 and Pregnant.
10. Ebony Jackson
Ebony Jackson was featured on the first season of 16 and Pregnant when she became pregnant at 17 with her fiance Josh Rendon. Both had plans to join the Air Force, but after welcoming their daughter, Jocelyn, and getting married, only Josh joined the Air Force. In 2011, however, both were arrested and Child Protective Services took away their daughter because of “untenable living conditions” in their Arkansas home. Authorities reported finding drug paraphernalia while there was “human and dog feces on the floor, walls, and clothing. The house was full of flies and in some areas, maggots.” The two then regained custody of Jocelyn and welcomed a second daughter, Jayda, in 2012, but the two split less than a year later. Ebony went on to date James Baldrick and welcomed their daughter and Ebony’s third, Jaelyn in June 2015 while Josh retains custody of their two daughters.
