Sometimes, it takes maturity to see why people worried about your immaturity.<\/p>\n

We reported that Unexpected<\/em> Season 7 will feature a 13-year-old father-to-be<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That child is Hunter. The child who has since given birth to his baby is now 15.<\/p>\n

Will Bella Vaughn face legal consequences for getting pregnant by a then-12-year-old? Here\u2019s what she has to say.<\/p>\n

Unexpected <\/em>is both an indictment of society as a whole and an attempt to be the next Teen Mom<\/em>.<\/p>\n

But when Hunter and Bella conceived, he wasn\u2019t a candidate to be a \u201cteen dad.\u201d <\/p>\n

She was 14, and he was 12.<\/p>\n

Bella has just recently turned 16. She says that Hunter turned 13 shortly after their catastrophic contraceptive failure.<\/p>\n

This week, she took to TikTok<\/a> to address speculation that she will \u2014 or \u201cshould\u201d \u2014 face legal consequences.<\/p>\n

@_izabellamarie<\/a> sorry i talk with my hands a lot lol #rumors<\/a> #15andpregnant\ud83d\udc99<\/a> #boymama<\/a> #teenmom<\/a> #mamasboy<\/a> @KrisNFalen \u266c original sound \u2013 bella\ud83d\udc06\ud83c\udfb1 | boy mama \ud83d\udc99\ud83d\udc76\ud83c\udffc<\/a> <\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cI definitely think it is overdue for me to make this video,\u201d the 16-year-old began.<\/p>\n

\u201cY\u2019all have really hit the mark with me,\u201d Bella admitted.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know they say that when you\u2019re on TV, you can\u2019t let things get to you,\u201d she acknowledged.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut,\u201d Bella emphasized, \u201cyou guys are way<\/em> overdoing it.\u201d<\/p>\n

She declared: \u201cThere\u2019s so much more that people have put out there that is a lie.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are a lot of things that should never happen to children. \u2018Unexpected\u2019 star Bella Vaughn is showing one of them. (Image Credit: TLC)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cHunter is a father! Just because he was 12 [when he got me pregnant], he turned 13 a few days later!\u201d Bella argued. <\/p>\n

\u201cI understand it doesn\u2019t make it any better. I understand,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Bella continued: \u201cHe was sexually ready faster than I was, and that\u2019s OK. But I was ready when we had sex.\u201d<\/p>\n

She urged: \u201cYou can all stop saying it was illegal and that I raped him, because I didn\u2019t. It was both consensual on both sides.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bella emphasized: \u201cPeople have already said that. We have already talked to the cops about it. It was consensual.\u201d<\/p>\n
