Chelsea Houska

Chelsea Houska, now Chelsea DeBoer, is an American reality television personality and entrepreneur who first rose to fame on MTV’s hit series “16 and Pregnant” and its spinoff “Teen Mom 2.” Born on August 29, 1991, in Vermillion, South Dakota, Houska was featured on the second season of “16 and Pregnant” in 2010, documenting her pregnancy as a teenager. Her relatable personality and the drama surrounding her relationship with her daughter Aubree’s father, Adam Lind, made her one of the show’s most popular cast members.

Houska went on to become a central figure on “Teen Mom 2” from its premiere in 2011, appearing on the show for ten seasons before departing in 2020. During her time on the show, viewers watched her navigate the challenges of young motherhood, pursue her education to become an aesthetician, and eventually find lasting love with Cole DeBoer, whom she married in 2016. The couple’s relationship became a fan favorite, and their growing family, which now includes four children, has been a source of positive content on her social media platforms.

After leaving Teen Mom 2, Houska successfully transitioned into entrepreneurship and social media influence. She launched Aubree Says, a children’s clothing line, and has partnered with various home decor and lifestyle brands. Her collaboration with Lauriebelles, a South Dakota-based boutique, and her involvement in designing and building her dream farmhouse in South Dakota have been particularly popular with her fanbase. She has also leveraged her large social media following for sponsored content and brand partnerships.

With an estimated net worth of $2 million in 2026, Houska’s wealth comes from her years on reality television, her business ventures, and her social media presence. She has successfully reinvented herself from a teen mom on a reality show to a respected lifestyle influencer and entrepreneur, building a stable and prosperous life for her family in South Dakota.
