Fans of the TLC show Unexpected have gotten to know 19-year-old mom McKayla Adkins really well because the YouTuber had not one but two teenage pregnancies chronicled on the series.

In a recent episode, viewers saw McKayla and her baby daddy Caelan Morrison — who’s the father of both her children — split before the birth of their daughter Gracelynn in January. Now, social media followers want to know if the makeup influencer is dating again.

Does McKayla from Unexpected have a new boyfriend?

In an Oct. 2 YouTube video, McKayla reveals that she is currently single and planning to move out of her grandparents’ home in November. Though she’s not seeing anyone at the moment, the reality star would like to find herself a husband within the next 10 years.

"I want to be married… I am hoping, I am praying, that is the goal. We’ll see if I can accomplish it," she tells subscribers on the video-sharing platform. As for kids, McKayla’s happy with the ones she’s got. 

"I don’t want any more kids," she admits. "If I do have any more kids it’s going to be years down the line when I’m married, have my own house, and all of that. Financially stable, have a good job, all that stuff. And I would probably have just one or two more."

McKayla also shares that she’s on better terms with Caelan these days after initially keeping the 20-year-old away from Gracelynn and their 2-year-old son Timothy. "Caelan does have contact with the kids now… He does see them," she says.

"He wasn’t seeing them because there were just some things he was doing in his life that were questionable to me and I just didn’t feel he was in the right headspace to see the kids," she continues. "There was just a lot going on that I’m not gonna put out there."

In a video posted to her channel on Oct. 4, McKayla confesses that she lost herself in her relationship with Caelan. "I started dating Caelan when I was 14 years old, and at 14, I was giving everything to this boy and it just wasn’t healthy," she explains. "I definitely don’t recommend getting in a relationship at a really young age…"

McKayla reveals she’s not attracted to any one gender.

The blonde beauty opens up about her sexuality in the Oct. 4 video. "I am attracted to people. If I think you’re beautiful and you have a good personality, then I’m attracted to you," she remarks. 

Though her two serious relationships have both been with men, McKayla specifies, "I really don’t care: male, female, trans, that doesn’t bother me. I’m just attracted to people I’m attracted to and I don’t put a label on it because I don’t even know what you would label that."

Will McKayla return to Unexpected?

We’d be surprised if the young mom came back for another season given that she partially blames the TLC show for her breakup. 

"I feel like me and Caelan weren’t in a good place anyways, but I definitely feel like the show ruined our relationship because they just asked, like, really invasive questions," she states in her Oct. 2 video. "I feel like they made drama between us."

Welcome to reality TV, honey! New episodes of Unexpected air Sundays at 10 p.m. ET on TLC.
