Unexpected star Caelan Morrison had to deal with being a teen dad while also navigating his declining relationship, and he’s moved on since appearing on the hit reality TV series. Caelan and fellow Unexpected star McKayla Adkins had been together since they were both 14 and found themselves becoming teen parents twice over. They had a baby boy at 16 and got engaged, but their tumultuous relationship halted their plans as preparations for the wedding were underway. What happened to Caelan after the cameras stopped rolling?
After initially ending their marriage plans, Caelan and McKayla seemed to resolve their issues and moved into their own house. Although Caelan tried to keep his family together, mainly because McKayla was pregnant with their second child, it was not meant to be. McKayla felt alone in the house and said that although Caelan financially supported his family, he was not there for her emotionally. McKayla moved back into her grandparents’ house, leaving Caelan by himself. Ultimately, the two broke up. McKayla became toxic and immature as she started using the children as weapons against Caelan and his family. Unexpected fans have slammed McKayla for many reasons, including her behavior toward Caelan.
Caelan Fought For Visitation Rights After Unexpected
After their season of Unexpected ended, there was a lot of drama between Caelan and McKayla. According to TV Shows Ace, Caelan fought for visitation rights with their kids, and McKayla took out a Temporary Restraining Order against him. The courts awarded him with weekend custody. Since then, their relationship has continued to struggle. In 2021, Caelan posted a video on TikTok featuring his children.
The Instagram page TLC Unexpected Tea posted it, and McKayla was unhappy. The post has since been removed. Apparently, she has said she doesn’t want her children on social media, and Caelan’s post directly violated her wishes. In a comment on the post, McKayla wrote, “I love how one of the very few times he has spent time with his children he can post a 15 sec tik tok and people think he should have custody of the kids. This world is insane.”
Caelan Has A New Girlfriend After Unexpected
Although McKayla and Caelan’s relationship remains contentious, it seems Caelan is enjoying his life. Although his children aren’t featured heavily on his feed, he posts many selfies and outings with friends. Caelan also used to post on YouTube regularly, though his most-viewed videos are responses to the never-ending drama between him and ex-fiancée McKayla. In early 2020, rumors emerged that Caelan was seeing someone new (via Soap Dirt). While he wasn’t seen with this woman again, he’s been in a relationship with Allycia Flowers for over two years.
Caelan finding a stable relationship seems to be a good sign. After issues with McKayla, he mostly keeps his kids off social media, though he sometimes posts pictures. Though he appears to be moving on, his relationship with McKayla doesn’t look like it will improve anytime soon. In situations like this, the most important thing is the kids, so hopefully, both Caelan and McKayla will remember to put their kids’ feelings before their own as they navigate their co-parenting relationship that began on Unexpected.
