CONDEMNATION: Teen Mom Star Whitney Didn’t Bother to Attend Her Son’s Funeral Because She Was Busy Hanging Out with Her New Boyfriend
In a shocking and heartbreaking twist that has left fans reeling, Teen Mom star Whitney Thompson is facing an avalanche of public outrage after reports surfaced that she skipped her son’s funeral to spend time with her new boyfriend.
According to close family sources and multiple eyewitness accounts, Whitney, 27, chose not to attend the memorial service of her 5-year-old son, Aiden, who tragically passed away two weeks ago after a sudden illness. Instead, she was allegedly seen just hours away, enjoying a weekend getaway with her new romantic partner at a luxury lakeside resort.
The revelations have sparked fury across social media, with fans and even former Teen Mom cast members publicly condemning the young mother for what many are calling “the ultimate betrayal.” Twitter and Instagram have been flooded with comments labeling Whitney as “heartless,” “disgusting,” and “unforgivable.”
“I’m honestly speechless,” wrote one fan on Reddit. “You don’t have to be a perfect parent, but skipping your own child’s funeral to shack up with a boyfriend? That’s inhuman.”
Family insiders claim that Whitney had been emotionally distant in the days leading up to Aiden’s death, and her relationship with the child’s father, Chris Delgado, had become strained since the breakup earlier this year. Chris, who was seen visibly devastated at the funeral, reportedly attempted to reach out to Whitney numerous times to include her in the arrangements but received no response.
“She didn’t even return my calls,” Chris told Star Insider. “I kept hoping she’d come to her senses. But she never showed up. It was like Aiden meant nothing to her anymore.”
Whitney, who rose to fame on MTV’s Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant, has not publicly commented on the situation. However, she was photographed smiling and holding hands with a heavily tattooed man, identified only as “Nate,” at a resort in Lake Havasu, Arizona, on the same day as her son’s funeral service in Ohio.
A representative for MTV has yet to issue a formal statement, but insiders at the network are reportedly “deeply disturbed” by the allegations and considering whether to terminate Whitney’s involvement in any future Teen Mom projects.
Meanwhile, fans continue to voice their disbelief. “We’ve followed her journey for years,” another viewer wrote. “We watched her struggle, cry, and try to be a better mom. But this? This is unforgivable.”
Some supporters have urged others to wait for Whitney’s side of the story, suggesting that she may be dealing with severe grief or emotional trauma. However, the vast majority of public sentiment appears to remain firmly against her.
As of now, Whitney’s social media profiles remain silent, with comments disabled and her most recent post—a photo of her with Nate in matching swimsuits—sparking further backlash.
Whether she will ever be able to recover from this public condemnation remains to be seen. But for many, the damage may already be irreversible.
