Briana DeJesus is speaking out about her baby girl in a new interview.

As the Teen Mom 2 star continues to deal with the absence of her youngest daughter’s father, Luis Hernandez, DeJesus has been faced with an even tougher ordeal with Stella: a devastating heart condition.

“She has holes in her heart. It’s been difficult dealing with Stella right now,” Briana DeJesus revealed to Radar Online on September 22. Little Stella reportedly also has a lactose intolerance.

Although Briana DeJesus claims Stella will be “fine,” she noted that she and her doctors were having to closely monitor the child’s breathing. DeJesus also said that while her mother, Roxanne, has been quite helpful with both of her kids in recent years, she is currently facing a health crisis of her own after discovering she’s suffering from Lupus.

“She’s always tired, always sick, always in the hospital,” Briana DeJesus said.

Roxanne is also recovering from a double mastectomy.

As for five-year-old Nova, Briana DeJesus said her oldest child has been doing her best to be a big help as she continues to parent her children without any help from their fathers, including Luis Hernandez and Devoin Austin, the latter of which is currently incarcerated.

While Briana DeJesus’s second baby daddy, Luis Hernandez, appeared to be interested in being a part of Stella’s life at the time of her July birth, he has since disappeared from her life entirely.

As Briana DeJesus explained to Radar Online, Hernandez completely disappeared as soon as their daughter was born.
