A separate post seemed to call out one person for causing Autumn’s death. After a little digging, the man that Misty called out on social media was someone the 16 & Pregnant star recently dated. He has a lengthy criminal record.

The profile of the man who was called out in the post says that he married Autumn in October 2020. However, the man and Autumn both currently have “single” marked as their relationship status on Facebook now.

Although there aren’t any additional details about how the 16 & Pregnant star died, Misty shared her thoughts online. She wrote, “YOU robbed my babies of their mother. YOU robbed my mother of her baby. YOU caused a mother and father to bury their youngest child. YOU robbed my child of his other mother. YOU robbed me of my only f***ing friend.”

When Was Autumn On 16 & Pregnant?

For those needing a refresher, 16 & Pregnant fans met Autumn Crittendon on the fifth season of the show. She appeared alongside her son’s father, Dustin Franklin.

At the time, she was a 16-year-old high school student from Richmond, Virginia. Before giving birth to her son Drake, Autumn was extremely concerned about her boyfriend’s maturity. She also wasn’t sure he was fit to be a dad because he did not hold a job and smoked marijuana.

During their time on the show, they had several disagreements about how the baby should be brought up. Ultimately, things came to a head when Dustin told Autumn that he wouldn’t stop smoking after the baby was born. They made a scene in a restaurant.

However, 16 & Pregnant showed Dustin eventually getting a job and passing a drug test at home before Drake is born.

Following the birth of their son, Autumn is still concerned about how Dustin will support them. She eventually seeks child support from him. Despite that, they wound up working things out.

After they had their son Drake on 16 & Pregnant, the pair went on to have two more children together, a girl and a boy. Autumn leaves her three children behind as well as countless friends and family.
