Amber Portwood is shutting down rumors about her exit from Teen Mom: The Next Chapter.

On Saturday, March 15, a video was shared via TikTok from a TikTok Live in which Portwood, 34, addressed claims that she was fired from the popular MTV series.

“Not only am I not being let go, I quit three days ago,” Portwood said. “I told Larry, the producer, I quit. My mental health was one of the things I said other than the yelling and crying from being so damn hurt from stuff.”

She said it was “so weird” that the hearsay was circulating based on claims heard “through the grapevine.”

PEOPLE has reached out to MTV for comment on Portwood’s claims but did not immediately hear back.

Portwood — who shares daughter Leah, 16, with ex Gary Shirley and son James, 6, with ex Andrew Glennon — has appeared on MTV’s 16 and Pregnant, Teen Mom, 16 and Marriage Bootcamp.

The star has been navigating her estrangement from Leah during recent episodes of Teen Mom: The Next Chapter. Fans of the reality series have long been split on Portwood’s inconsistent presence in her children’s lives and in a TikTok Live, which was shared via YouTube on Feb. 27, Portwood addressed those criticisms head-on.

When someone noted claims on the show that Portwood hadn’t spoken to Leah in four months at the time of filming, the reality personality shared her side of the story.

“I was told to stay away. Not to stay away, but… all that stuff,” she said, emphasizing she “would never” go that long without talking to her daughter.

Another commenter mentioned that Portwood had “put Leah through enough,” at which point Portwood claimed she and Leah, “already talked about everything from the past.”

“She doesn’t remember anything, guys. She said it on the show that she didn’t remember anything bad. She didn’t remember anything, but she would watch clips online. And she said that’s what she hated,” Portwood said.

On the Feb. 20 episode of the reality show, Leah reacted to clips of 16 & Pregnant and Teen Mom she had seen on TikTok.

“I see the older ones from when I was like 2 and it’s just weird to watch because it’s always just Amber screaming at you and you leave,” Leah said of her mom and dad’s fights on the show. “I think those ones are painful to watch because it’s little me,” she added of being so young while filming.
