TEEN Mom fans slammed star Mackenzie Edwards for buying her “sober” husband Ryan a wine decanter set for Father’s Day.
The father of three, 32, has had multiple stints in rehab, which is why this gift is “the most ignorant thing ever,” according to some reality show viewers.
Mackenzie, who married Ryan after his split from ex Maci Bookout, revealed the two presents she got for Ryan on social media on Monday.
The couple shares son Jagger and newborn daughter Stella, and Ryan also has son Bentley with Maci, and Mackenzie, 23, also has son Hudson with ex-husband Zachary Stephens.
In the beginning of her video reveal, she spoke directly to the camera: “I just got Ryan’s Father’s Day present in the mail, and, oh my God, it turned out so much better than I was expecting.”
She turned the camera onto gift number one, and it was a wallet engraved with his initials on it.
The issue that fans took with this one, though, was the message the Teen Mom star had inscribed inside.
The note said: “You keep me safe. I’ll keep you wild. Happy Father’s Day! Xoxo Mackenzie.”
One Reddit fan said they “def raised an eyebrow at that one,” while another one said it “alarmed” them.
After revealing she plans to keep her husband wild, she showed the second gift she got her husband, after he’s been through multiple stints in rehab — a wine decanter set.
The set has a couple of engraved glasses with the letter E for Edwards, and a tall wine decanter with the same marking.
While describing the present, Mackenzie said: “I just think that it is so special. Everything is etched.
“And you can change your own etching, but this is the style that I thought he would like best.
“I had to block him from the Stories so he wouldn’t know what he was getting, but the quality is just so fantastic for the price point. It’s affordable.”
Fans realized that it was a sponsored post because she was tagging the brand and had a discount code, but that didn’t stop them from being upset about what she decided to get Ryan from the brand.
They said she could’ve gotten him anything, but “some people just don’t get it.”
Another Redditer wrote: “Wow this has literally got to be the most ignorant thing I've ever seen.”
Someone else called Ryan’s wife “utterly stupid” and told her to read some literature on addiction or recovery.
In late 2018, Ryan entered a 90-day intensive treatment facility, where he could only have two 10-minute pone calls each week, and he missed the birth of his and Mackenzie’s son Jagger.
His mother Jen said during an episode of Teen Mom OG: “It is a relapse or slip, it was getting out of control.”
Mackenzie added: “It was about to spiral bad.”
He’d also gone to rehab in 2017, for less than a month, after he was caught driving to his wedding to Mackenzie while high.
Ryan was also arrested in early 2019 after allegedly not paying his bar tab while he was on probation, and he ended up staying in jail for a few months.
