TEEN Mom OG star Catelynn Lowell was slammed by fans for posting that she’s “giving away” her daughter Nova, 5, ten years after placing her eldest child with husband Tyler Baltierra for adoption.
The shocking admission was made on Thursday to help promote a click-bait article on her Instagram page.
Catelynn, 27, captioned a photo with daughter Nova: “We’re giving Nova away. #LinkInBio.”
But when readers clicked the link, it brought them to an article where Catelynn defended fan backlash for giving her daughter rainbow hair extensions.
The post has since been deleted.
Followers slammed the TMOG star for the tease, as Catelynn and Tyler, 28, placed their oldest daughter Carly, 10, for adoption in 2009.
In the past, different reality stars have claimed they don’t write their own captions for the click-bait article posts, but it is unclear if that is the case here.
One follower wrote: “Given their whole storyline, with Carly, her saying that they’re giving another child away, even for a click bait tease, or a joke is in such poor taste. What a piece of vile trash!!”
A second slammed: “I don’t give a flying f**k if they post it or not. They give permission for people to post this s**t day after day after day and it’s always super gross.
“This one in particular, considering her past, is deplorable.”
Another wrote: “She’s a CHILD. Children aren’t ‘given away’ like old clothes. They are placed for adoption because they are human beings who deserve love and care.
“For even implying that she would ‘give her away’ is completely vile. It’s Cate’s account, her child and she is absolutely accountable.
A fourth fired: “She should be ashamed of herself.”
Catelynn and Tyler, who married in 2015, are also parents to daughter Vaeda, 11 months.
Since Catelynn and Tyler joined Teen Mom OG after appearing on 16 and Pregnant, they have been advocates for adoption.
The two have filmed their struggles over the years of having a semi-open adoption for Carly.
Catelynn and Tyler have expressed their frustrations over adopted parents Brandon and Teresa sometimes denying them yearly visits with Carly.

After a visit last season, Catelynn and Tyler were left in tears after seeing their daughter.
Tyler cried in the car: “They looked like they were comforting her. I want to comfort her.
“Everytime we see her she’s like a totally different kid.”
