Teen Mom OG‘sTyler Baltierrais clearing the air about his relationship with wifeCatelynn.
“You don’t deserve Cate,” one viewer tweeted at Tyler, 26, on Tuesday. “I hope karma bites you in the a—.”
“You’re absolutely right…I don’t deserve Cate & trust me, karma has bitten me many times before, so I’m well equipped when she comes knocking again!” he replied.
Tyler and Catelynn, 26 — who share daughterNovalee Reign, almost 4, and placed daughterCarly, 9, for adoption in 2009 —announced in Octoberthat they are expecting another daughter theyare naming Tezlee.
In an episode ofTeen Mom OGin November, the coupledecided to live apartfor 30 days.
“He decided he wanted to try living separately for a month,” Catelynn revealed. “I was devastated, at first, but now that I’ve started my own therapy, I’m more comfortable with the idea.”
In a later episode, Catelynn worried that 30-day period wouldlead to a divorce.
“I get scared. I’m a normal human,” she said. “That’s why I wanted to know for sure, after these 30 days, if I was going to be coming over there and living with you. Or were you planning on, after these 30 days, being like, ‘No, I want a divorce’? Is he doing this just to get away and then tell me we’re over with?”

On Twitter Tuesday, Tyler defended his and Catelynn’s arrangement.
“The 30 days wasn’t even a total isolated ‘separation,'” he wrote. “I was 8 min down the road & we had dinner dates, family movie nights, went on a mini vacation & it was EXACTLY what we needed for US! People can hate on me all day but my self assurance is not reliant on society’s acceptance.”
“I only spent the first week of the ‘separation’ in the new house on an air mattress in the middle of construction to get it completely ready for Cate & Nova,” he continued. “Then I went to the old house for the rest of the time. I wasn’t going to let my girls live in chaos!”
Earlier this month, Catelynnalso defendedthe unconventional 30-day plan.
“I am supporting what he wants now! WE love each other and ALWAYS WILL!” she wrote on Instagram in a since-deleted post.
