'Teen Mom 2' Star Kail Lowry Opens Up About "Physically And Emotionally Traumatic" Abortion In New Book

Teen Mom 2 star Kail Lowry has opened up about two devastating rapes and a tragic abortion in her new memoir.

In her new book, set to be released at the end of the month, Lowry chronicles her younger years, recalling how an ex-boyfriend forced himself on her, leading to her first pregnancy, and another rape which happened soon after.

“Toby wouldn’t take no for an answer," Lowry wrote of her second sexual experience. "I didn’t want to sleep with [him], but he persisted. Denying him seemed fruitless."

Since Toby showed no signs of stopping, Lowry eventually gave in, pleading that he at least wear a condom, but unfortunately, he did not, and weeks later, at just 15 years of age, Lowry took her first pregnancy test.

After discovering that her scary encounter with Toby had resulted in a baby, Lowry informed her mother of the news. Right away, Suzi instructed her to have an abortion, which she did on her 16th birthday.

“I swear they didn’t just suck out my uterus,” she explained. “It felt as though they had taken every fiber of my being…I felt a mother’s grief.”

Sadly, Lowry's "physically and emotionally tragic abortion" wasn't the end of Lowry's troubles.

After welcoming her first son, Isaac, with Jo Rivera, the pair split, and Lowry was left as a single parent. Months later, she fell in love with a man named Jordan, but that relationship was short-lived as well.

At that point, Lowry began seeing a man named Caleb who would eventually become the second man to rape her.

“He was plastered and insisted he needed to talk to me, so I let him in,” she remembered of Caleb's unannounced visit to her home. “But he had no interest in talking. He pulled me into the bedroom and slammed me onto the bed, taking my clothes off roughly…His strength was overpowering. I felt a tear and knew I was bleeding….It felt like I was dead.”

Pride Over Pity hits stores on April 22.
