TEEN Mom star Kailyn Lowry’s son formerly known as Isaac has come out as gay and revealed his new name on her podcast, Barely Famous.
Kailyn‘s oldest son told fans he has decided to start going by his middle name, Elliott, and spoke out about his personal life for the first time.

Kailyn said she believes he prefers Elliott to separate who he was on MTV as a child, and who he is now. Elliott agreed that was at least partially true.
Elliott also said he wanted to speak out about his sexual orientation for the first time publicly, and disclosed he identifies as gay.
“Happy Pride, everybody! I’m very nervous for this episode,” he said. “I’m here today to show you who I am, not who you saw on TV for 12 years of my life.”
“It’s very important to me because I feel like growing up on TV, it’s hard to show who you really are when a camera is in front of you all the time. It’s harder to be yourself.”
Kailyn burst into tears just seconds into the podcast.
“I’n crying because this shows your strength, and I’m just really proud of you,” she said. “It’s a really brave thing to do.”
BORN ON TV
Elliott’s birth was captured on 16 & Pregnant when Kailyn was just 17 years old. (Elliott’s dad is Kailyn’s high school boyfriend, Jo Rivera.)
She went on to star on MTV spinoff Teen Mom 2, and eventually left the show in 2022.
As he got older, Elliott he stopped appearing on the show as much, and was rarely present on her social media.
In recent years, he has emerged with his own Instagram account, and often shows his passion for American Sign Language, reading, and baking.
Elliott is the oldest of seven siblings, also including Lincoln, Lux, Creed, Rio and twins Verse and Valley.
He lives with Kailyn half the time, and also lives with his dad Jo and stepmom Vee.
DRAMA ON HOLD
Kailyn revealed her son had a big announcement to make earlier this week, and urged fans to stop talking about her own personal life.
“I’m going to address it at a later time, but this week was dedicated to Elliott,” she said in a social media message to fans.
“It’s super important to him and to our family to keep things as planned and I’m not going to take this moment away from him.
“So I would just love for everyone to support my son, and what he has to say and let him share his story this week.
“I will address everything else at a later time.”
As The U.S. Sun previously reported, Kailyn is now dating local Delaware fisherman Isaac Knighton just months after her split from fiance and baby daddy Elijah Scott.
Elijah is the father of Kailyn’s youngest three kids.
