Amber Portwood Dismisses That Daughter Leah, 16, Experienced 'Trauma' from Her Absence: 'I Had a Way Worse Life'


Amber Portwood took to TikTok Live to answer fan criticisms of her relationship with 16-year-old daughter Leah.

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. Portwood conceded that the constant fighting and contention wasn't a healthy environment for Leah's early years, but it was only a short time. Following that period, Portwood previously served out a prison sentence in 2012 and 2013 after a drug possession conviction in tandem with a parole violation following domestic-violence charges.
