Leah Messer losing full custody of her twin daughters to ex-husband Corey Simms has been a nightmare for the Teen Mom 2 star, but for the 5-year-old girls it’s a blessing in disguise.
“They’ve been thriving in school,” a source told In Touch. “They have a lot of friends.”
Ever since Ali and Aleeah began living with their father and stepmother Miranda during the weekdays, they have been “really well.”
