Maci Bookout recalled her 15-year-old son Bentley’s reaction to his dad Ryan Edwards’ drug overdose in April
at the time. Maci told her friends that Ryan had to be revived by Narcan — a medication that reverses opioid overdoses — twice.Teen Mom fans have watched Maci Bookout and Ryan Edwards’ drama play out for more than a decade. The pair’s rocky relationship was first documented on season 1 of 16 and Pregnant in 2009. After welcoming son Bentley in October 2008, the duo were briefly engaged in 2009 before calling it quits for good.
After Maci told her eldest son that his father had overdosed, Bentley — who had just seen his dad several days prior when Ryan came to his baseball game — was “just angry,” she recalled. “The way things have been going the last four or five months and how good things were going, even in the midst of all this crap with [Ryan’s] soon-to-be ex-wife … I think Bentley is angry because he’s like I used to be,” Maci explained. “Like, ‘Man, do you realize how much potential you have?’ I just think for Bentley, he’s just like, ‘Damn, 10 pieces of the puzzle had been put in the right place and you still couldn’t get the five pieces left in there.
“Heroin. Using that s—t’s rough. I mean, it could kill you and you wouldn’t even know it,” he said in a confessional, sharing how he didn’t want to go down that path again.
