It's time to set the record straight!
During Monday night's season finale of Teen Mom OG, Tyler Baltierra and Catelynn Lowell were able to reunite with their eldest daughter Carly in a special visit organized by their adoption counselor.
Before spending some quality time at the local zoo, however, the couple admitted to running a little late because they wanted to finish making a special gift.
Ultimately, some viewers weren't impressed leaving the pair forced to defend themselves on social media.
"We were a half hour late putting finishing touches on her very special scrapbook with our handwritten letters. If this makes us horrible people, then so be it," Tyler wrote on Twitter Tuesday morning. "It was SO worth it to see the look on her face in person & guarantee that she actually gets it! The visit was amazing."
Catelynn added, "Carly didn't care about the time on the clock she only cared that we spent quality time with her and played etc. also that she got to spend time with her sisters and that's all that matters."
For those who may not follow the MTV reality show, Tyler and Catelynn placed Carly up for adoption when they were teenagers in hopes of giving her a better life.
Since then, the pair has been able to stay in touch with Carly and her adoptive parents. While cameras weren't rolling during their most recent reunion, fans were still able to catch a glimpse into the unforgettable day.
"It's never going to be easy to go see everyone and say hello and hang out and then say goodbye but all of us that are involved would trade the couple days of sadness to have the visits—to just have that bond," Tyler shared on last night's episode.
Catelynn added, "I would say birth parents are some of the strongest people out in the world."
