Per The US Sun, Beaver, 22, and Fernandez's co-parenting relationship was tumultuous, and allegedly, Beaver kept Emerson from Fernandez and his wife.

"We ask Malorie to see her and she has us blocked," Kylee Rose told the publication mid-last year.

"When she chooses to unblock us, she ignores us or says, 'Oh, Emerson doesn't want to talk to you.'"

"Emmy has a father and stepmother that care about her so much and love her unconditionally. Malorie chooses to let her jealousy get in the way of her child's happiness, and that's not only sad, but low as a mother," Kylee added.

Beaver and Fernandez starred on MTV's Teen Mom: Young & Pregnant's second and third seasons throughout 2020 and 2021, and their storyline revolved around them trying to work on their relationship.

At this time, Fernandez's cause of death is unknown.
