Amber Portwood Charged in Baby Daddy Beatdown

Teen Mom star Amber Portwood has officially been charged for hitting and shoving her former fiance Gary Shirley on an episode of the MTV reality show.

Portwood was charged by the Madison County (Ind.) prosecutor’s office with two counts of domestic battery and one count of neglect of a dependent.

Those are all felonies, in part because their two-year-old daughter Leah was there for it. A misdemeanor charge of domestic battery was also filed.

THAT HURTS! Amber is feeling the pain of felony charges.

Portwood faces up to three years in jail and fines of up to $10,000 for each of the counts, which also led to her temporarily losing custody of Leah.

Privately, the reality of facing criminal charges has brought Amber to the edge as she is facing the sobering truth about her future slipping away.

Here's hoping she gets it together sooner rather than later, for all of their sakes. Here's just one of her televised attacks on Gary Shirley ...
