Maddie has previously opened up about the challenges she faced when welcoming her first child at the age of 14.
Speaking on her YouTube channel, she explained how she was subject to cruel trolling after she became pregnant at 13.
She said: "I broke because I wasn't used to the amount of hate I was getting.
"Just because I got pregnant I was this horrible person.

"So many people that I thought were my friends would talk behind my back and make fun of me. I became the laughing stock of everyone I knew."
Maddie has also opened up on the judgement that teen mums receive, admitting that she had in the past 'looked down' on teen parents, too.
“I’d always look down on teen mums, if I’m being completely honest,” she told Truly.

“I think that was just from a lack of knowing what it’s really like.
“Whenever you would see the media surrounding teen mums, you see the TV shows, and it’s just really negative and it shows a lot of drama.
“When I actually got pregnant, I was so scared of the reaction people were gonna give.
“I did get a lot of negative reactions, a lot of hate.”
