Tragedy and Tension: Whitney Purvis Misses Son's Funeral
SHOCKING EXCLUSIVE: 16 and Pregnant Star Whitney Purvis Missed Her Own Son's Funeral - And Now the Drama Unfolds!
In a jaw-dropping turn of events, former MTV reality star Whitney Purvis allegedly skipped her own son Weston Jr.'s funeral, just two weeks after confirming his tragic death at the tender age of 16.
Whitney, who rose to fame on the hit show 16 and Pregnant during its first season, welcomed Weston Jr. with her then-boyfriend Weston Gosa while they were still in an on-again, off-again relationship. The couple also brought their younger son River, now 11, into the world.
In a heart-wrenching Facebook post earlier this month, Whitney announced the devastating news of Weston Jr.'s passing, saying: "This is so hard to write. My beautiful son, Weston has passed away. He was only 16 years old. Life is so cruel and unfair. I just don't understand."
But now, sources close to Whitney's camp claim that she was refused entry to her son's funeral due to a misunderstanding over the timing of the service.
According to TheScholarlyNote.com, Weston Sr. allegedly told Whitney that the viewing would begin at 2 pm, with the actual funeral service starting promptly at 4 pm. However, when Whitney arrived at the chapel in Georgia on Saturday, she was reportedly informed that the service had already started at 2 pm - and the doors were locked by the time she got there.
Weston Sr. disputes Whitney's version of events, insisting that he explicitly told her the funeral would begin at 4 pm sharp after the viewing at 2 pm. He claims that Whitney turned up late, around 4:15 pm, when the chapel doors were already closed.
But it gets even juicier! TheScholarlyNote.com sources claim that not only was Whitney refused entry to her son's funeral, but so were members of her own family - including her mother, aunt, and uncle. Yes, you read that right!
Weston Sr. claims that he called Whitney a week in advance to invite her to the service, warning her that it would have a strictly controlled guest list. He also alleges that when Whitney arrived late, she became angry with him over text, claiming that she wasn't on the guest list and accusing him of being "evil" for barring her from her own son's memorial service.
The drama doesn't stop there! Weston Sr. revealed to TheScholarlyNote.com that he and his wife Amy Gosa have since purchased a separate urn for some of Weston Jr.'s ashes, which Whitney can keep - as if the situation wasn't already messy enough!
As fans of 16 and Pregnant will recall, Whitney's tumultuous relationship with Weston Sr. has been well-documented over the years. The couple welcomed two sons together before eventually splitting up again.
But despite their troubled past, the sudden loss of their son Weston Jr. has brought them together in grief. Amy Gosa shared a heartbreaking tribute on Facebook, saying: "We are completely heartbroken and in shock. It was so unexpected."
Whitney also posted a heartfelt message, saying: "Rest in Peace, my baby Weston. I love you forever, precious. I'll never understand why life has to be so cruel. You'll always be my baby."
As the news of Weston Jr.'s tragic passing continues to send shockwaves through the reality TV community, fans are left wondering what could have driven Whitney to miss her own son's funeral.
