'Teen Mom' Amber Portwood Required Court Approval for Reunion Show

'Teen Mom' star Amber Portwood and her baby daddy Gary Shirely were required to get permission from court to appear on an MTV reunion show.

RadarOnline.com is reporting that Portwood and Shirely, along with their two-year-old daughter Leah, needed to get permission from the Madison County court to appear on a 'Teen Mom' reunion show. This stems from a request made to the court by Child Protective Services who had asked that the couple have no contact in the presence of their daughter.

A source close to Portwood is reported saying, "Amber and Gary were given a special dispensation to be together for the show with the child in California. And they were more than civil together."

The source continues, "There was some talk of trying to reconcile but now they're young adults and no longer teens, they are thinking more realistically about what it means and how to reconcile in the face of the history they have had together."

Last year, Leah was temporarily made a "ward of the state" after images of Portwood drinking underage surfaced online. Portwood was also being investigated for domestic violence for allegedly assaulting Shirley and spent a day in jail for felony domestic abuse charges.

Portwood was reunited with Leah a day after her release from jail.

The 'Teen Mom' star recently got into some hot water when nude images of the 20-year-old leaked online. There have been claims that Portwood had leaked the images herself.

She should have to have court approval to reproduce as well.

She should have her tubes tied and in addition I am disturbed that trash like this gets called a "star". How can anyone watch this MTV garbage?

I wish we could get a court order to pull MTV off the air. They have hit a new low with garbage programs like this and Jersey Shore. You can stop morons 18 and over from losing brsin cells but any parent who permits their minor children to watch these programs needs a few good kicks in the rear end.

I find myself worrying about the child with this amber girl.
Amber is not fit to help herself, how does she take care of her child when the cameras are not rolling?
Some things in this country are just plain wrong, this girl having a child is one of them. There should be laws that prevent a teenager from keeping a child. Nothing good ever came from a unwed teenager, but a child with little family.

ALLEGED domestic violence? When it's on tape, it's not alleged anymore, sorry! This girl is an abusive wench who needs that child to be taken away for the sake of the child's future!!
