Pregnant Teen Mom UK star trolled for ‘trapping her boyfriend’ after ‘forgetting’ to take the morning after pill
A PREGNANT Teen Mom UK star has been accused of "trapping her boyfriend" by cruel trolls after she "forgot" to take the morning after pill.
Shannon Wise, who appears on the hit MTV reality series, announced her second unexpected pregnancy in last week's episode after admitting that her and her long-term boyfriend Charlie, 21, had not been using contraception.

However the 19-year-old, from High Wycombe, insists that they had "always been really careful".
Shannon- who already has two-year-old son Theodore - revealed that she'd fallen pregnant when Charlie whisked her on a romantic getaway to Brighton earlier in the series.
Narrating her segment on the reality show, Shannon admitted: "I've been feeling really tired lately and now I'm worried I know why.
"A couple of weeks ago I was going to take the morning after pill and I forgot."

But what should have been a happy for couple instead drove a wedge between them as Shannon confessed that Charlie was "really angry with" her because "he's been saying for ages that he doesn't want another baby yet."
On the very trip Shannon fell pregnant, Charlie said: "I honestly don't even want another kid. I feel like it would break us."
What's more, the couple - who have been in an on/off relationship for years - have previously fought over how their son Theodore was conceived.

Last season, Charlie accused Shannon of getting pregnant "on purpose" after supposedly coming off The Pill without telling him.
In a heated argument during a family holiday abroad, Charlie said Shannon's best friend told him her plans "not to take The Pill because [she wanted] a baby."
He said: "It baffled me. I'm not saying I believe her but that's your best pal, where did it come from?"
However, Shannon has always denied that Theodore was planned.

Since announcing her second pregnancy on the show, viewers have now accused Shannon of trying to "trap" her boyfriend with a baby.
One wrote: "Shannon is literally crazy. She has been trying to trap Charlie for ages with another baby.
"She 'forgot' to take the morning after pill. And Charlie even said last season that she trapped him with the first child.
"This behaviour should be illegal, it's messed up."
Another replied: "Can't cope with Shannon off Teen Mom UK. 'It takes two to make a baby' - you intentionally didn't get the morning after pill to trap him."
Meanwhile, a third responded: "It makes me so cross. No job, first child doesn't sleep through [the night] yet, failed GCSE re-sits, boyfriend didn't want another one straight away... all his fault apparently."

In response to the wave of negative comments concerning her second pregnancy, Shannon tweeted: "There's having an opinion and then there's being nasty!
"I don't expect everyone to like me but I also don't expect people to bully me online.
"Just because I'm on TV doesn't mean I don't have feelings like the rest of you."
Meanwhile, fellow Teen Mom UK cast member Chloe Patton jumped to Shannon's defence.
The 20-year-old mum told her 30,000 followers: "Me, the girls and the dads open our doors to you and doing EVERYTHING and our BEST for our families.
"We are human remember that before saying horrible and some disgusting comments.
"Think if we were saying these things to you how you'd feel!"
