Background

Isaac Elliot Rivera was born on January 18, 2010. He was born to Kailyn Lowry, a reality star on “Teen Mom 2,” and Jonathan Rivera. (His parents were both teenagers then.) His parents’ relationship began to deteriorate when they couldn’t handle the pressures of everyday living and of raising Isaac. In the midst of their frequent feuding, his mother walked out. Following his parents’ bad breakup, they battled for custody of him in court several times.

During the fourth season, his mother began dating Javi Marroquin. After a few months, the two got engaged and married on September 4, 2013. Isaac became a big brother for the first time in November 2013, when his mother and Marroquin’s son, Lincoln Marshall, was born. The family of four, as well as his father Jonathan, and his then-girlfriend Vee Torres, relocated to Delaware so they could remain involved in Isaac’s upbringing. (Torres gave birth to a daughter in 2015.)

Lowry divorced Marroquin in December 2015, though the latter had built a deep bond with Isaac as a stepfather. Isaac became a big brother for the second time when his mother gave birth to Chris Lopez’s son, Lux Russell. Isaac welcomed another brother, Creed Romello, on July 30, 2020. All in all, Isaac has four half-siblings.
