Well, it looks like one of the longest-lingering questions in the Teen Mom universe has finally been answered.
For years now, fans have been speculating that Leah Messer and Jeremy Calvert are still hooking up on the down-low.
Some might say that mystery was not resolved in any satisfactory fashion on last night’s episode of Teen Mom 2.
To those people, we say — did you see how they were acting around each other?
A camera crew may not have filmed them in the act, but come on — those two are doin’ it.
But you don’t have to take our word for it.
Check out the evidence and decide for yourself:
Reunion Revisited
Remember when Teen Mom 2 was a show about the struggles of small-town lower-class single mothers? Yeah, neither do we. Last night’s season premiere saw Leah and Jeremy living it up in Manhattan, having hit the Big Apple together for yet another TM2 reunion special.
Return of the Baby Daddy
The fact that Jeremy was on hand for the reunion at all was an indication that he and Leah are on goods terms. The fact that they stayed in the same hotel, well … that may have meant they were on better than good terms.
What’s Going On Here?
Rumors about Leah and Jeremy rekindling their romance have been circulating for years, and to be fair — there’s good reason for that.
Spilling the Tea
During past reunions, Leah admitted to casually hooking up with Jeremy.
Nothing Serious
She denied, however, that it was anything more than a fling for old time’s sake. But maybe this time would be different …
Ideal Conditions
Once again this year, Leah and Jeremy were both single, both in New York, and both feeling … nostalgic.
Sister Vickie
And this time, Leah’s sister, Victoria, was on hand to do some sleuthing on behalf of the audience.
Cool and Single
“We are cool. We’re both single, we can hang out if we want,” Leah told Victoria when asked about her relationship with Jeremy.
Riiiiight…
Asked why Jeremy chose to book a room in Leah’s hotel, Messer replied, “Probably so he’s around somebody he knows.”
It Begins
We probably don’t need to tell you that Leah and Jeremy did more than just sleep in separate rooms. They’re two healthy adults with a strong mutual attraction, so obviously they … went out for drinks?
Playing Innocent
And if you take Leah’s word for it — that’s all they did.
Wherever Would They Get Such an Idea?
“I posted some pictures and now everybody’s commenting, asking if we’re back together,” she complained.
On the Outs
At the time of Leah and Jeremy’s NYC rendezvous, her relationship status with Jason Jordan was unclear.
Open For Business
Over the course of the trip, however, Leah made it clear that she had not spoken to Jordan in over a month.
Hammering the Point Home
In case her intentions were unclear, she added that she’s “single again” and “back on the prowl.”
Vickie’s Take
“When you two are together, you’re not single,” Victoria chimed in. Jeremy joked (we hope), “I’m gonna throat punch your sister.”
Busted!
Victoria accused Leah of “sneaking” back into their hotel room at 7 am, but Jeremy refuted the claim, insisting that he and Leah had simply gone to the gym together early that morning.
Confessions
Later, while filming the reunion, Leah admitted, “This weekend, we’ve had fun,” when asked about Jeremy,
Worked Out, Eh?
Back at home, Leah admitted that she “wanted the weekend to last a little longer,” but also didn’t “wanna get too worked out” about Jeremy.
All About Addie
“I’m okay having fun times with Addie and feeling it out. I’m okay with all that,” she told her sister, referring to her daughter with Jeremy.
Mulling It Over
“At the end of the day, I am thinking about it,” Messer said of her possible reconciliation with Jeremy. “I would never want to do anything that would hurt her in the long run. If it didn’t work out.”
Text Confessions
Jeremy later texted Leah joking that the two of them “had a lot of people’s minds going WTF” with their behavior over the weekend.
Heads Spinning
When Leah told him, “People’s? My mind is like that!” he agreed, texting her back, “Lol same.”
Yep …
Yeah, like we said — these two are definitely bonin’ on the regular.
