Leah’s fans witnessed the then 18-year-old juggling her parental duties and education while making several sacrifices along the way.

Leah put in her best effort to make it work with her baby-daddy, and Corey also seemed to reciprocate her feelings with sincerity. Yet, they had way too many disagreements to share a stable relationship. Leah and Corey briefly took a break in 2010, during which the young mom began to date her longtime boyfriend, Robb Kidd. But as parents to two daughters, they thought it best to give their relationship another shot.

On October 17, 2010, Leah walked down the aisle for Corey, and it seemed like the end of their dark phase. However, Leah admitted to infidelity in April 2011 and even elaborated that it had been two weeks prior to their wedding, a confession inevitably leading to their divorce in June 2011. But did the two give their relationship another chance?
