Mackenzie McKee has been in the news often of late, for reasons both disturbing and also intriguing.
But the former Teen Mom 3 star and future Teen Mom OG cast member is not making headlines here for allegedly abusing her dog or being chosen to take over for Jenelle Evans.
As you've likely heard by now, it looks as though Mackenzie McKee will be joining the cast of Teen Mom OG.
Rumors of the big casting news leaked on Monday, and we assumed there would be an official announcement by now, but thus far, all parties are playing this one close to the vest.
Earlier this week, the world learned that Mackenzie McKee will be joining the cast of Teen Mom OG.
The news didn't come as a tremendous shock, as producers had reportedly been looking for a fifth cast member ever since Bristol Palin quit the show after her first and only season.
Last fall, Teen Mom 3 alum Mackenzie McKee shared the surprising and uplighting news that her mother was done with chemo.
Fans had followed Angie Douthit's cancer battle, and celebrated the joyous news. Unfortunately, Angie's story has taken a dark turn.
Mackenzie McKee is now 24 years old.
Her mom, who is finally done with chemo as of only a few weeks ago, took to Facebook to wish her the happiest of birthdays.
