Kailyn Lowry & Elijah Scott

With construction worker Elijah, Kailyn felt she had finally built that strong foundation. “It’s been very different from my other partners and my kids’ other dads,” she told People of Elijah, dad to her son Rio and twins Verse and Valley. “He pours concrete, he gets down and dirty at work. But he’s also just a real family man. He’s very, very much connected with his own family, with our family, and so he’s been a really good partner to me, and I feel like it’s a really good match.”

A strong enough one that she finally said yes to one of his many proposals, in fact.

“He asked me to marry him several times and I never said no,” Kailyn insisted to E! News in September 2024 of her neighbor-turned-life partner. “I was just like, ‘Yes, but not right now.'”

Ultimately, though, the timing wasn’t right, Kailyn revealing in July 2025 that they had split.

“I get a lot of s–t for leaving my kids’ dads,” she detailed on the Give them Lala podcast. “I left all of them because I, to some degree, take no s–t.”
