Mackenzie Douthit and Alexandria Sekella have earned promotions from 16 & Pregnant. They will reportedly be among the cast of MTV’s new Teen Mom 3!
According to Radar, anyway, so who knows. Mackenzie, an Oklahoma native, is mom to son Gannon, and she’s engaged to her baby’s father Josh McKee.
The cheerleader got attention ever since this season’s 16 & Pregnant trailer (below), posing in her cheerleading uniform and lamenting her weight gain.
Douthit was an easy choice for MTV. “She comes from a stable family; seems to have her life in order,” a source says. “They wanted someone like that.”
Alexandria Sekella, meanwhile, lives in Pennsylvania (the same state as Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry and Jo Rivera), and is mom to daughter Arabella.
On Alex’s emotional episode she gut-wrenchingly considered giving her baby up for adoption, much like original Teen Mom star Catelynn Lowell has.
Her ex-boyfriend and former fiancee, Matt McCann, entered rehab in December for a drug addiction, something Teen Mom 2‘s Jenelle Evans knows well.
“Both of them are excited to be on Teen Mom 3,” the source claims. “It’ll be quite a journey for them. Viewers loved them and can’t wait to see more.”
