TEEN Mom Ashley Jones has fans questioning her fate on the show after the star shared a cryptic post.
The reality star posted a message about her “amazing experience” on Teen Mom 2 following the season finale.
Ashley took to her Instagram Stories to share a promotional photo of the cast, including her costars Jade Cline, Kailyn Lowry, Leah Messer, and Briana DeJesus.
The 25-year-old wore a body-hugging floral dress and white strappy high heels for the shot with her hair tied back into a high ponytail.
The mom of one gushed over her appearance and wrote a heartfelt message about her two-year run on the show.
“I look gooood,” she joked, adding a pair of laughing face emojis.

“TM2 was an amazing experience. Thankful for the opportunity. See y’all in the future,” she continued with a red heart emoji.
Her followers questioned if her post meant she was leaving the franchise after her costar Leah, 30, shared a similar message hours earlier.
The MTV stars aren’t going anywhere just yet as the show is rumored to be getting a revamp.
In March, The Ashley Roundup reported that Teen Mom OG and Teen Mom 2 were condensing into one new show.

Sources told the publication that the new show’s “working title” is “Teen Mom Legacy,” inspired by the mom’s long-standing run on reality TV.
TEEN MOM MERGE
They also revealed that filming for the new show kicked off in March as producers from both sides of the franchise came together.
The cast includes fan-favorites Catelynn Lowell, Maci Bookout, Cheyenne Floyd, Amber Portwood, Leah, Ashley, Jade, and Briana.
Kailyn recently announced that she has opted out of the franchise.
“Eight girls are filming for the show; whether or not all of the girls’ segments make it into the episodes will depend on how exciting their footage is,” an another source revealed.
“Everyone agrees that the original shows have become stale and forced, with the girls desperately trying to come up with storylines.”
They continued: “With this format, only the girls with actual events happening in their lives that are film-worthy will make the final cut.
“The producers hope this will keep everything exciting for the fans and also for the girls who are filming.”
MTV has yet to comment on the supposed merge.
‘CAN Y’ALL STOP’
The news of Ashley’s return comes after she clapped back at a fan who claimed MTV paid the Teen Mom stars to keep having children.
The debate took place on Twitter after one user noted: “Damn, these kids from Teen Mom and Teen Mom 2 out here living in mansions!
“What’s MTV paying these kids?”
Among the responses, one follower answered: “Maybe they got a bonus for each new baby!”
Ashley – mom to 4-year-old daughter Holly with her husband Bar Smith – got wind of the tweet and fired back at the user.
“Can y’all stop saying this.” she snapped on Twitter. “We don’t get paid per baby.”
Instead, the TV personality explained the money goes into what is known as a Coogan account, named after the Jackie Coogan Law, which requires 15% of the child actor’s gross earnings to be set aside and monitored – but not withdrawn – by a legal guardian until the child reaches legal age.
Or, as Ashley explained: “Our kids cash CAN NOT be touched as it is protected by state laws that govern child ‘actors’ and how their money needs to be deposited AND what account is needs to be deposited into.”

In addition to fighting off critics on social media, Ashley has been busy planning her secret wedding to Bar, 25.
The pair previously tied the knot in January in an impromptu ceremony.
