Amber Portwood of MTV’s reality show Teen Mom was caught on camera assaulting her boyfriend, Gary Shirley, after he told her he planned to call child services on her over their 23 month old baby, Leah. On the show, Amber smacked Gary in the face and continued to hit him cornering him into the apartment wall.
The Department of Child’s Services began their investigation on September 28th, after the episode aired. Anne Holton of the Department of Child’s Services told OK Magazine, “We have an ongoing assessment with regard to the family of Amber Portwood and we continue to work with law enforcement on this matter.”
On last Wednesday, the teen apologized to fans and stated that she plans to seek help and hasn’t struck Gary Shirley since the taping took place months ago.
Ever since the news and the video of the assault went viral, MTV has removed the episode from their site which says it isn’t currently available but will be again soon.
Meanwhile, Amber and Gary are scheduled to have a formal interview with the police department sometime next week.

Why is Amber a dirty little hampster? That apartment is filthy. The babies bed is disguisting. She puts the baby in bed while she is crying and slams the door shut. The baby needs a hair cut or her hair needs to be fixed. The only time this season we saw the baby look half way decent was when the “new boyfriend” WAS MEETING THE CHILD? Ugly filthy dirty dishes all over the place. She is a dirty girl, ewwwww. I feel sorry for the baby, I’m sure she is wearing dirty clothes since she never likes to change her, AND LETS A STRANGER CHANGE HER OWN CHILD, WHO SHE JUST MET????? Are you for real????
amber ur a loser!!! Your gona die an old lonely person….i truely hope they take leah and give that baby to gary…hes an amazing man and great father…u shoud be so lucky to have a man like that in ur life….you deserve everything that’s coming ur way….and for gary i hope he has a great happy and health life with someone who will respect him…amber u can kiss it!!!
Amber is a horrible mother, but both her and Gary are extremely sloppy, nasty, ignorant, and lazy. He cant even hold a job. He’s over 22 years old and still lives with whoever will let him. The producers at MTV say that he asks for them to pay outrageous expenses and fees for allowing them to film him. He’s a loser and so is she. I also can’t believe she let that ex-con change her baby’s diaper. How desperate is she. I can’t believe she lost so much weight because her ass is always laying down. She sure didn’t lose it cleaning house. Her feet are filthy when she walks around barefoot in her apartment. That is the floor that the baby plays on. They should take that child from both of them until they go to parenting classes and life skills classes.
We don’t have the right to condemn Amber, she doesn’t even know where to place herself! I just think that it will not happen if the parents of this girl show their love and concern,we sometimes see things from the negative side of this person but the fact that we are giving them word of discouragement instead of encourage her, and live life with harmony!,,if there are person to be blame for amber’s situations and attitude these are the person who don’t even have the capacity to show her the perfecte way of self discipline.An MTV show cast member, Amber Portwood from “Teen Mom,†may encounter felony allegations and prison time for assault. I found this here: Teen mom Amber Portwood faces felony charges Presumably, she assaulted Shirley several times. Shirley is her previous fiance and daughter’s dad. When show footage aired showing Shirley being attacked by Portwood, authorities got involved.
Just now noticing this? I have notice this since the first day she started. I have TV everywhere with my employer DISH and I watch this show when ever it comes on. I have never seen more abuse then this girl has given the father of her child. That little girl of theirs doesn’t deserve they life like this she deserves so much better!
