She’s telling all. Leah Messer from Teen Mom 2 says she’s single, and that her relationship with Jason Jordan “was just a toxic relationship. It wasn’t great,” according to Us Weekly. She spoke with the outlet on April 5 — before the Teen Mom 2reunion taping — and revealed quite a bit about their relationship and the decision to break it off. Learn more in the gallery below.
Leah, 26, told Us Weekly in October that one of the things that drew her to Jason, 40, was their kids. He has a 2-year-old son from a previous relationship, and Leah said, “It’s just a different responsibility, it’s a different life than someone that’s single … he’s a good dad … he’s an all around good person.”
Parenting is definitely a unique experience, so we can see how it brought the Teen Mom 2 star and Jason together. But apparently, it wasn’t enough.

“Definitely Done”
“It’s definitely done. Last time, he was going through a little bit of things, like, with his custody stuff. I was, like, ‘He is going through a lot, let’s give it another chance,’” she told Us Weekly. Not so this time.

Not on Speaking Terms?
The Teen Mom franchise star noted that it was a “toxic relationship,” and that the two “don’t talk” following their break up. Ouch.

Not Easy
Leah also admitted to the outlet that dating isn’t all that easy for her. “You don’t know who’s in it for the right reasons and who is not in it,” she explained. Is she hinting that she’s been burned before?

Roll With It
Apparently, Leah’s also not that interested in jumping into any other relationship right now. “Being on TV makes it difficult dating. I just roll with it. I’m not looking for anything.”

Single AF
The Teen Mom 2 mama noted that she’s “been single for about a month,” but that her split won’t be shown on the show just because of the filming schedule. “You’ll see me talking about it on the new season,” she added.

Not Meant to Be
It seemed like Leah addressed the breakup on her Instagram Story on March 14, where she wrote, “So thankful for this beautiful journey that we call life! My thought of the day … Everyone comes into our lives for a reason, a season or a lifetime. I’m thankful for everyone I’ve journeyed with and continue to learn and grow. When we can live in the present with appreciation, there’s no room for judgment. Some things are just not meant to be and that’s ok.”

Curious …
Is it just us, or is that a far cry from it being a “toxic relationship”?

What’s Up?
As of March 18, every picture of the couple or of their families together was gone from Leah’s Instagram account. Why did she change her tune?

So Vain
Leah also retweeted some lyrics from Carly Simon’s famous “You’re So Vain” song on Twitter: “You’re so vain / You probably think / This Tweet is about you.” Was she being shady about Jason?
