As someone who has watched their relationship unfold on TV, I would definitely say Maci Bookout and Taylor McKinney are one of the cutest Teen Mom couples. Not only did Taylor move across the country to be with Maci after they did the long-distance thing, but he also had MTV help him stage a fake photoshoot on the beach so that he could propose.

The pair already share two kids, four-year old Jayde and three-year old Maverick, as well as Maci's 11-year-old son Bentley, who she shares with ex Ryan Edwards. Bookout and McKinney married in 2016, and despite their marital bliss, according to Us Weekly, the couple is "on different pages" about whether or not they want to extend their family.

The publication reports that Bookout revealed on an episode of the Watch With Us podcast, "One of the things that we really tried to stay consistent in is that it’s normal and not completely crazy that we are on different sides of the fence when it comes to that. And we’re both also very respectful of how the other one feels about it." It seems like even if the couple disagrees, they still respect each other's opinions. Maci added, "I think just as long as we keep talking about it — even when we’re not on the same page — it’s best.”

The mother-of-three also revealed that watching the show has actually helped her and McKinney reflect on their relationship. “It’s easy to watch the show and then, especially if it’s more of the difficult or harder moments, it’s easy to kind of bring the conversation back up in a different time,” Bookout said. “It’s kind of like how people say, ‘Your show helps me talk to my kids about sex and birth control.’ It’s the same for me and Taylor, I’d say. We can actually use the show to open the conversation without being offended or come across wrong or right or hateful.”

Good for Maci and Taylor for being so open and positive about their feelings, even if they disagree!
