Personal life

Kailyn was born in Honesdale, Pennsylvania on March 14, 1992, to Suzanne "Suzi" Irwin.[7] Her father was absent from her childhood, and did not pursue a relationship with her after the two met for the first time when in 2009, when she was 17 years old.[8][9] In 2018, she told the press she was estranged from both her parents, and was unsure as where her mother was living or working or if she was even alive. In 2020, Lowry received a phone call from her mother while filming. She hung up on her mother after telling her that she was no longer a part of her life due to her lack of contact with her daughter over the years. Since then, her mother has made no more attempts to reconnect with Lowry.[10]

Kailyn is divorced. She married the father of her second child, Lincoln, Javi Marroquin, a member of the United States Air Force, on September 4, 2012, gave birth to their child Lincoln Marshall in November 2013, and filed for divorce in December 2015.[11][12] Some of their marriage was televised; in one segment of Teen Mom featuring the two, Javi blamed Kailyn for suffering a miscarriage, and later, the two appeared together on Marriage Boot Camp.[13] The two agreed to share custody of their son and Kailyn denied rumors that their marriage had ended due to infidelity.[14]
