Leah, Amber's eldest daughter, was also upset and felt that it would be weird to see her brother only on video calls.

Amber Portwood shares 13-year-old daughter Leah with her ex-boyfriend Gary. In Seasons 1 and 2 of Teen Mom, she was seen slapping Gary and was asked to do community service by CPS to get custody of Leah.

Amber was charged with criminal recklessness committed with a deadly weapon, domestic battery, and domestic battery committed in the presence of a child less than 16 years old.
Since then, the couple were involved in an intense custody battle as Amber lived in a rental property and Andrew was allowed to stay in Amber’s big family home. In 2022, Glennon was awarded sole custody of their son James.
In the latest episode, Amber confessed that she would have to spend a lot of money to travel so she could visit James. She would also have to pay child support.
Additionally, she revealed that she had not seen her supposed family home, where Glennon lived, in three years. She made plans to live in that home in the future. Later on in the episode, Amber's ex Gary took Amber and Leah to take a look at the family home.
Upon reaching, they were shocked to see the condition of the house, which smelled like urine and had a lot of stains on the floor. Leah told her mother that she should have called CPS on Glennon. Gary reminded Leah that she never had to live in such conditions.
