BENTLEY, the eldest son of Massey Bookout, thinks his famous mom is a carbon copy of TEEN Mom OG fans after seeing an adorable throwback photo.
The MTV star shares son Bentley, 13, with ex-boyfriend Ryan Edwards.
On Wednesday, several throwback photos of the Teen Mom teen appeared on Reddit, where fans debated which of his parents he looked more like.
“Does Bentley look more like Maci or Rhine? What do you think?” the original poster wrote, seemingly alluding to Maci’s Tennessee accent with the spelling of Ryan’s name.
Fans flocked to the thread to weigh in and within a few posts, Maci emerged the clear winner.
One fan declared: “Definitely Maci. Ryan’s other kids look like him though.”
Another commenter added: “I think he looks more like Maci; also Maverick looks so much like Bentley but Ryan’s kids with Mack don’t look as much like Bentley…”
A third slightly critical commenter wrote: ” Maci’s face on Ryan’s (big) head. You can really see it in the baby pics slide.”
While most people seemed to feel he looked like one parent or the other, one commenter wrote: “He looks like whoever he’s next to. I think he’s a good blend of them both. As a baby he didn’t look like Ryan at all but as he grows he’s starting to.”
In February, Ryan shaded his ex as he shared a TikTok video slamming “single mothers.”
The clip showed a brunette woman in a green crop top pointing to words on the screen that read: “FYI: You’re not a single mom if you collect child support and keep the kids from their father.”
The girl then leaned in close to the camera as the words switched to: “You’re a trash parent.”
Ryan’s cryptic post follows his near-decade-long battle with ex Maci over their son Bentley.
A month earlier, the reality star confessed that she could not “remember when was the last time she spoke to” her troubled ex.
During the Family Reunion premiere, the TV personality revealed her thoughts on her former partner.
During the opening of the episode, Maci mentioned she had been part of the show for about 13 years.
She said: “Ryan is my oldest son’s biological father.”
During the footage, the former couple appeared to be yelling at each other just before the reality star stormed out of the car.
Maci added: “I couldn’t tell you the last time I spoke to him.”
Bentley became estranged from his father due to his long battle with substance abuse and rehab stint in 2018.
The Teen Mom star also shares daughter Jayde, six, and son Maverick, five, with her husband Taylor McKinney, 32.
Ryan and his now-wife Mackenzie, 25, are parents to son Jagger, two.
The young mom also has her son Hudson from a previous marriage.
Ryan has struggled to connect with his firstborn and his ex after battling serious substance abuse and addiction.
Their issues spilled out onscreen causing a blowout fight to break out during the reunion special between Ryan’s father and Maci’s husband Taylor.
The argument led to Ryan and his entire family being fired from the show by MTV producers, although Maci and Taylor were not penalized.
Ryan blamed Maci, saying it was “retaliation” for the reunion show fight.
At the time he told The Sun: “Maci is in fear that my mom and dad will start telling the truth. She will always fight to have us off the show.”
The ex-couple’s contemptuous co-parenting relationship has continued for years, and even Mackenzie has used her social media as a method to throw shade at her husband’s ex.
After Maci slammed Ryan on Teen Mom Family Reunion, Mackenzie took to her stories to share a cryptic post.
The photo read: “Wake up. Kick butt. Be kind. Hair flip. Repeat.”
They did not address Macy’s comments on the show, nor did they add any more context to the post.
