Many of the disillusioned fans suggested that the message as well as Mackenzie's breakup from Josh may be a ploy for the former Teen Mom to return to the long-running series.
One Redditor commented: "You’re not gettin back on the show, girl. Go to some parenting classes."
Another person, pretending to be Mackenzie, wrote: "MTV are you watching me!!??"
A third fan questioned: "Another fake divorce to try [to] get back on teen mom?"
Other commenters focused on the message itself, with one person writing, "I still don't believe they're actually done but I believe SHE believes it."
Another Redditor commented: "Unleashed Mackenzie… I actually feel like that’s always described her. Manic and unleashed."
While a third fan agreed, stating "Mackenzie is so manic I feel like she’s trying to fly through this divorce process in a week and she’ll have a new live-in boyfriend in two weeks."
The response wasn't all negative however as one Redditor voiced: "I hope this is for real. This girl deserves space to heal and find happiness outside the trauma-filled households she’s lived in her whole life."
BREAKING THE SILENCE
Mackenzie broke her silence on her split from husband Josh, confirming that "it's over" and admitting she "fought hard."
The TV personality posted the message to her alongside two photos with her former man.
One of them on a beach, another a couples' selfie - she wrote, "With all the messages I'm receiving and articles coming out, I wanted you guys to hear what's going on from me alone.
"Sometimes things work and sometimes, no matter how hard you fight, it just doesn’t work out.
"I am breaking my silence about Josh and I being done."
The Teen Mom 3 alum continued on the split, "I will always respect him as the father of my children but it’s time for me to find my happy."
She then asked her followers to go to her bio for "my full statement." with a broken heart emoji.
There she linked to a news story that confirmed the first definitive words from her on Tuesday.
The outlet had written, "After ups and downs in her relationship with Josh, she’s exclusively confirming that her marriage is over."
THE FULL STATEMENT
"Josh and I are both still young with an entire life ahead of us,” the former cheerleader added to the outlet on their 12 years together and nine of marriage.
“And I wish nothing but peace and happiness for him and his future. Everyone has their own story, and this is mine.”
She told them she's "stepping into an entire new life and new me" and did not elaborate on the reasoning but said she walked away.
"Us women do not leave until we are ready, until we can wake up, notice the coffee [doesn’t] smell right and something is off. That was my marriage,” she shared.
“But my marriage is all I’ve ever known since I was a young teenager.
“I wasn’t sad, I wasn’t sad about anything, I wasn’t angry, I wasn’t depressed. I gained my power back as a female who finally knows her self-worth.
