Farrah Abraham Claims MTV Staged Her ‘Teen Mom’ Reunion Fight With Amber Portwood
Nov. 30 2017, Published 1:45 p.m. ET
Farrah Abraham got into one of the most explosive fights in Teen Mom OG history when Amber Portwood slapped her across the face during the reunion last year. But Farrah is now claiming that the whole thing was staged by MTV, and that the TV crew “instigated” the shocking fight!
“Amber was provoked by production to run on stage and instigate a fight with me,” Farrah told RadarOnline.com exclusively. “They shut off all TVs on set and tried to remove all families and children beforehand. They instigated bad criminal behavior on set.”
During the intense episode, Amber ran onstage when Farrah said her then-fiancé Matt Baier looked like a pedophile. Amber pushed through crew members to try and hit Farrah, and soon after, Matt ran onstage and pushed down Farrah’s dad, Michael Abraham.
Farrah claimed it wasn’t the first time MTV created tension on set. She also accused MTV of forcing fights between her and her parents. “I had producers always ask me questions and then go run and tell my parents,” she said. “They make things manipulated, not authentic.”

“Production should never cross boundaries and ruin the natural family interactions as the Teen Mom associated production companies and MTV allowed repeatedly,” Farrah told Radar. “It becomes an issue and struggle between what’s real and manipulated by production rather than focus on the real lives and stories.”
Farrah said her other co-stars, including Amber, Maci Bookout, and Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans have all accused the show of “manipulations and fake story lines.”
