Remember Kailyn Lowry? She was one of the teens featured in MTV’s “16 and Pregnant” and “Teen Mom 2″ — and earlier this year, she told her Twitter followers that she was an atheist:
Well, now she’s getting married and her fiance Javi Marroquin happens to be a Catholic.
Problem? Not at all. In news that’s not-really-news-but-what-the-hell-it’s-still-amusing, Lowry says her wedding won’t be a traditional Catholic one:
[Kailyn], who is an open atheist, says that she and Javi won’t be getting married in a church. However, after Javi posted a tweet asking fans to pray for the couple’s dog, many thought [that] Lowry may have changed her mind on her religious views.
“I still don’t believe. But it doesn’t matter to either of us that he is catholic,” Kail revealed to fans.
Here’s how the conversation broke down:
Keep bear in your prayers please. 🙁 he’s trying to get through this.

No word yet on how they plan to work out their religious differences, but it’s nice to see a couple not letting one person’s religious beliefs take over what’s supposed to be a meaningful day for both of them. Hopefully, they can compromise on which aspects of the wedding they want to keep and discard the rest — including the church setting.
