Teen Mom 2’s Kailyn Lowry has a new romance to be thankful for – with a woman.
The 25-year-old Nazareth, Pennsylvania native, on her podcast Coffee & Convos with Lindsie Chrisley, revealed that she’s in a budding relationship with a member of the fairer sex.
Asked if they’ve stepped out ‘on a legitimate date,’ Kailyn said, ‘Yes and no,’ pointing out that she’s mom to three boys, including three-month-old son Lux Russell, with ex Chris Lopez.

New romance: Teen Mom 2’s Kailyn Lowry, 25, seen in NYC last month, confirmed Wednesday that she’s dating a woman
‘We go out to eat, but it’s kind of hard because I have kids, I have a baby,’ said Lowry, who also has sons Isaac Elliot, seven, with ex-boyfriend Jo Rivera; and four-year-old Lincoln Marshall, with her ex-husband Javi Marroquin.
While Kailyn didn’t name who she’s dating – speculation pointed to Dominique Potter, a woman she’s been seen with frequently on social media – she said they ‘were friends for a year’ and their relationship ‘kind of just turned into’ a romance.
‘It’s not like she was trying to wine and dine me to ask me to be her girlfriend, you know what I mean?’ the MTV personality said. ‘It more or less just happened … so far, so good.’
Potter’s social media account has numerous pictures of the pair enjoying one another’s company.
