Teen Mom stars Briana DeJesus and Ashley Jones were removed from Family Reunion, along with their mothers, following an explosive fight between the families.

It was during the most recent episode that the pair had begun a heated row after a string arguments throughout the night – bickering amongst each other.

During an altercation, Ashley spat on Briana, escalating things much further as Briana grabbed a steel water bottle – hurtling it towards Ashley.

The hard-to-watch fight continued and show staff were forced to intervene – separating the pair during the large bust-up between the two girls and their mums Roxanne and Tea.

Both breaching their contract, during the episode they were told by producers that they had to leave, sitting for a chat with Dr. Cheyenne Bryant, also known as Coach B.

Ashley said: "The alternative to my spit was my fist. I regret that all I did was spit on her after they came for my mama. None of this feels right to me."

A member of MTV staff also told Briana the incident was a "significant breach of contract", explaining the bottle could "have caused serious, serious injury".

Taking to Twitter, fans blasted Briana and her mum for their roles in the fight, with one saying: "Briana and Roxanne ruined the Teen Mom franchise."

Another said: "Bro briana and her fam from teen mom are deadass so problematic and cry for everything."

While a third wrote of the fight: "Ashley and Tea on Teen Mom would’ve dog walked Briana and Roxy."

Someone else penned: " Ashley and her momma are messy Brianna and her momma are messy. Roxy and bri start the fight but Ashley’s the villain for spitting?

"It was nasty but it was called for. Seems like no one knows what knuck if u buck means these day."

Another suggested the bust-up wasn't real, adding: "Teen mom family reunion…a terrible opportunity to see grandmothers unable to hold their tempers."

"Makes me wonder if this grandma fight is staged," they added.

Another viewer fumed: "Ashley really wants a fight. I can’t believe she spit in Briana’s face. No wonder they couldn’t see each other at the Teen Mom reunion."
