It seems that drama never ceases to follow the young mother's of reality TV.
Much like Teen Mom star Amber Portwood, 16 & Pregnant's Jennifer Del Rio was also accused of assaulting her baby's father Josh Smith, yesterday.
But now the 17-year-old says Smith set her up, doing the deed himself, and then lying to police about the circumstances.

The young mother told TMZ the drama all started when she drove Josh home from an interview on Monday.
When the teenage father lifted one of their twins out of the child seat, he asked Jennifer if the child could stay overnight with him and a then fight ensued.
When Jennifer told him 'no' and attempted to take the twin out of his hands, the baby began to cry.
'Give me back my kid. You’re hurting him,' she cried.
Jennifer claims it was then when she was pushed into a fence, forcing her to call the cops.

She alleges that in that time Smith disappeared inside his house, only to emerge moments later with a bloody nose and a ripped shirt.
He told the brunette that he had called the cops and informed her that it was 'her turn to go to jail.'
He said that she would 'pay' for an incident stemming from last November, in which the 19-year-old was arrested for an alleged attack on the mother of his children.

Jennifer claims that when police arrived, Smith told them that it was her that caused his injuries.
While Jennifer and Smith were not arrested over the incident, she told TMZ that she would press child endangerment charges against Smith, as well as obtaining a restraining order.
But this is not the first time.
Last month Jennifer filed a restraining order against Smith after he was 'harassing and threatening her and saying he would have her raped.'
According to TMZ, Jennifer’s police report claimed that Smith had attempted to kidnap the children and that she was 'frightened for her life and children’s life.'
Smith's November arrest for domestic violence will be shown on an upcoming 16 & Pregnant episode later this month.
16 and Pregnant is an MTV reality series which follows the stories of pregnant teenage girls in high school dealing with the hardships of teenage pregnancy.
Each episode features a different teenage girl, with the episode usually beginning when she is four-and-a-half to eight months pregnant.
The episode concludes when the baby is a few months old.
Teen Mom and Teen Mom 2 are spin-off series of the show.
Both the series became notorious with the antics of Amber Portwood and Jenelle Evans respectively..
The two girls have both been in trouble with the law.
Amber spent a night in jail last December after being charged with two counts of domestic battery and one count of Neglect of a Dependent, as well as a misdemeanour charge of domestic battery after an altercation with former partner Gary Shirely.
The charges stemmed from when she was caught on camera allegedly physically abusing the father of her child.
Jenelle has also been in hot water with arrests for both drugs and assault.
