Chelsea Houska, known for her debut on Teen Mom 2, has expanded her family with husband Cole DeBoer, now welcoming three more children—Watson, Layne, and Walker—following the birth of her eldest daughter, Aubree.
Houska’s journey began in 2009 with her appearance on 16 and Pregnant, where she gave birth to Aubree, fathered by ex-boyfriend Adam Lind. She became a staple of Teen Mom 2 when it started in 2011, sharing her experiences with custody disputes and her evolving relationship with DeBoer.
After 11 years with the show, Houska announced her departure in 2020 via Instagram, citing her children’s privacy as a significant factor in her decision, expressing a desire to protect them from the scrutiny of reality television.

"I would never go back to anything that’s about my kids’ personal life for sure," Houska stated in an interview with E! News, emphasizing her commitment to family privacy. However, she remains open to light-hearted opportunities. In 2023, Houska and DeBoer debuted their own HGTV renovation series, Down Home Fab, which chronicles the couple’s journey in starting a design business while managing their growing family.
