Amber Portwood's Boyfriend Andrew Glennon Says Restraining Orders Are 'Jeopardizing Our Relationship'
There is a trouble in paradise for Amber Portwood and Andrew Glennon.
Portwood and Glennon graced the red carpet of 2017 MTV VMAs together. During the event, the couple looked happy and adorable together. However, less than a week later, their relationship apparently got seriously tested after she learned that he received two restraining orders from his exes.
Addressing how his past has affected their relationship, Glennon recently admitted that the restraining orders have indeed put a strain on their romance. "This is jeopardizing our relationship, which tears my heart," Glennon told Radar Online. "She is still processing. Right now everything is up in the air."
Glennon added that he believes their relationship is real. He also admitted that he made a mistake not opening up about the matter with Portwood, especially since they have been dating for a while now. "I feel like a total idiot for not bringing this up to her first, but it was such a difficult time in my life that I blocked it out of my mind," Glennon explained. "I apologize to you, Amber, her fans, and anyone following us."
According to the publication, Glennon's ex-girlfriend, whom he dated for three years, requested for a domestic violence restraining order against him. The court granted her the restraining order, which lasted for three years and expired on Oct. 30, 2016.
Glennon's ex claimed that he showed up uninvited to her home and sent her flowers using a false name. She added that he "threw rocks" at her window. Portwood's new boyfriend denied all the allegations. However, Glennon explained that he did send flowers to her, but his name in the card had only been misspelled.
The second restraining order was filed by another one of his exes on April 23, 2015. A temporary restraining order was issued by the court on May 14 of the same year. It was dissolved, and the case was dismissed on June 4, 2015 when neither of them appeared in court.
"Since breaking up with him, I have received hundreds of emails, phone calls, text messages and Facebook messages from him harassing me," Glennon's second ex-girlfriend claimed. "He has shown up at my work, home and the bus stops I take to and from work as well."
Glennon also denied the accusations of his second ex, insisting he was not aware of the restraining order she filed against him. According to him, he has three sisters and would never stalk or harass any woman.
Just recently, Glennon and Portwood opened up about their romance in an interview, where they admitted that they are taking things slow. The "Teen Mom" star stressed that she is happy with her new flame and added that Glennon has already received the approval of her daughter.
