How Long Have Each of Kailyn Lowry’s Major Relationships Lasted?
Kailyn Lowry’s love life has always received a fair bit of criticism. The mother of seven has children by four different men, and while she’s only been married once, not everyone is okay with how she manages her romantic life. Javi Marroquin, the father of her second-oldest child, exploded about Lowry’s current romance on Instagram, which ignited further discussion from Teen Mom fans. Do you know how long each of Kailyn Lowry’s relationships lasted, though?
‘Teen Mom’ fans met her as Jo Rivera’s girlfriend
When MTV viewers first met Kailyn Lowry, she was already pregnant with her first child. At just 17, she had moved away from her mother and moved in with her then-boyfriend, Jo Rivera, and his family. The couple, who began dating in 2008, cohabited while awaiting the arrival of their first child, Elliot. While they were technically a couple at that point, the tension was palpable even during her 16 & Pregnant episode.
They officially split up in 2011 before their son could even talk. While Kailyn briefly stayed with the Rivera family after the split, she moved into her own apartment after they condemned her for dating after the breakup. Since then, she’s co-parented with Jo and his wife, Vee Torres, with varying levels of success.
They spent 3 years together in total.
Kailyn Lowry moved on to Javi Marroquin
A year after her split from Jo, Kailyn introduced Teen Mom viewers to Javi Marroquin. The couple developed their relationship quickly, with Javi moving in and proposing within months. They married privately in late 2012 and also had a televised wedding ceremony the following year.
The pair’s son, Lincoln, was born in 2013. Together, they navigated deployments and other logistical issues during their marriage, but by 2016, they had split. Kailyn and Javi cited trust issues and infidelity as the cause. Despite no longer being together, Kailyn and Javi continue to get involved in each other’s drama regularly. Kailyn was dragged into a scandal that involved Javi cheating on his now-wife while she was in the same house. Javi inserted himself into Kailyn Lowry’s relationship struggle with a recent Instagram Live event.
Kailyn and Javi’s relationship lasted 4 years. They were married for three of those years.
After their split, she had a tumultuous relationship with Chris Lopez
Following her divorce, Kailyn Lowry rebounded with her former friend, Chris Lopez. They fell into a chaotic and often violent relationship. During their courtship, they welcomed two children together. Their son, Lux, was born in 2017. Their second son, Creed, was born in 2020 during a brief reconciliation. The former flames split for good in 2020.
Kailyn and Chris have, by far, the most troubled relationship. They both regularly discuss each other negatively on social media and have yet to establish an effective co-parenting relationship. It seems unlikely that they’ll ever work together well.
The romance lasted for around four years.
Kailyn Lowry had a secret romance with a man named Malik
Kailyn Lowry has been pretty open about her love life despite Teen Mom fans judging her harshly for it. Still, she has managed to keep some secrets. In fact, she kept an entire relationship mostly secret from the public. Between 2020 and 2022, Kailyn was actually dating a man named Malik Montgomery.
The nature of their relationship wasn’t revealed to the public until he was named during a court hearing for a defamation lawsuit Kailyn filed against her former co-star Briana DeJesus. According to the U.S. Sun, Kailyn explained that she “refused” to film Teen Mom because she was hoping to keep her relationship with Malik private, not because of anything to do with Chris Lopez. He also appeared on her podcast shortly before their split. Kailyn never acknowledged the end of the relationship; Malik did.
Malik and Kailyn were in a relationship for around 2 years.
She linked up with Elijah Scott and welcomed three more children
After ending her secret romance with Malik, she moved on to her neighbor, Elijah Scott. Scott, now 26, was first linked to Kailyn in April 2022. Despite their seven-year age gap, love blossomed quickly, and Scott moved out of his own house and into Lowry’s. Together, they welcomed their son, Rio, in 2022. The following year, they announced the birth of their twins, Verse and Valley. They even announced an engagement before ultimately breaking up.
Neither Kailyn nor Elijah has discussed the end of their relationship. Despite their silence, social media followers believe things hit a rough patch in April. In April, a TikTok content creator claimed to have hooked up with Elijah while on a cruise. Video evidence showed her with the Delaware resident. He didn’t address the cheating, but it seems that he was unceremoniously booted from the house.
Kailyn and Elijah’s relationship lasted for three years.
Kailyn Lowry is now dating a man named Isaac
While Kailyn and Elijah’s split is still pretty new, that doesn’t mean she hasn’t moved on already. In fact, her sudden change in relationship status was what bothered Javi. According to several sources, she’s already in a new relationship and bringing her newest man around all seven of her children.
Kailyn is rumored to be dating a man named Isaac Knighton. While Kailyn hasn’t spoken about her new romance, Teen Mom fans have spotted evidence of the fledgling relationship on social media. Reportedly, Isaac is from Allentown, Pennsylvania, close to where Kailyn grew up. Little else is known about him.
