Cheyenne Floyd Admits ‘We Need Help’ as Fertility Fight Tests Marriage
At 2 AM, nothing feels more emblematic of modern misery than scrolling through a reality-star meltdown—and “Teen Mom” alum Cheyenne Floyd just handed us another. In the April 17 episode of Teen Mom: Next Chapter, Cheyenne and husband Zach Davis mark a year of failed baby-making, and spoiler alert: it’s a train wreck in slow motion. According to PEOPLE and her own Instagram confessions, she’s spent months tracking cycles on apps, popping hormone shots, and staring hopelessly at negative pregnancy strips—while Zach keeps plastering on a grin and praying it’ll all turn out fine.
Cheyenne tells a friend she’s “compassionate” about Zach’s initial fertility scare, but admits she can’t fathom how he doesn’t grasp the uniquely female agony of a body refusing its prime directive (PEOPLE, April 17). She even fumbles telling him what she needs—refreshing honesty, right? Instead, she shrugs, “I don’t know if I know how I want him to show up,” and lands on the TV couch feeling utterly “alone.”
When Cheyenne finally brings it up with Zach, his positivity morphs into friction: he insists he’s “all in,” wants to “bring light,” and prays she’ll quit “beating herself up.” Cheyenne shoots back, exasperated: “Do you understand how it feels taking test after test and strip after strip?” His solution—a mental-space makeover—lands about as well as a cactus in a balloon factory. No surprise, tension spikes when Zach suggests she’s perhaps too consumed by cycle apps, while Cheyenne accuses him of undermining her pain.
Cue mom Margaret for a dose of motherly intervention. In a confessional that reads like a how-to manual for doomscrollers, Cheyenne admits obsession is creeping in: tracking ovulation, swiping through fertility forums, every negative sign a dagger to the soul. Margaret’s advice? Marriage coaching. Because nothing says “we might survive” like sitting on a couch with a stranger doling out communication hacks. (Dotdash Meredith feeds us this cautionary tale.)
So here we stand: a couple on the brink of deciding between IVF, more hormone injections, or letting go of their dream altogether—while desperately attempting to patch up their relationship wreckage. Will therapy transform this fertility fiasco into a triumph, or is it simply the prelude to a deeper collapse?
