TEEN Mom Amber Portwood's MTV salary has been revealed as an Indiana judge is ordering her to pay a shocking amount to her ex-Andrew Glennon after she lost custody of her son James, 4. 

The Teen Mom star, who has been ordered to pay massive child support arrears dating back to 2019, has an MTV salary of $600,000 a year, according to court documents exclusively obtained by The Sun. 


"Mother’s discovery responses, her listed contract amount was $600,00.00 per year. Other expenses, such as costs associated with agents and lawyers, come out of her contract amount," the judge wrote in her decision.  

After Amber pays people on her team, she brings home closer to $475,000 according to the custody documents. 

The judge also noted: "No evidence was presented as to any additional income associated with Mother’s recent book." 

Meanwhile, the judge, who gave full custody to Andrew and also granted his request to relocate with James to California, is ordering Amber to pay child support dating back to the start of their July 2019 split following the MTV star's arrest for domestic violence.

In determining the amount Amber has to pay, the judge took into consideration that Andrew has been living in her Indiana home rent-free with James, that the Teen Mom star has not had any overnight visits with her son and that the 38-year-old dad has been the primary caretaker since their breakup. 

"The court orders that the mother's child support arrearage is set at $52,266.81.

And mother shall pay this arrearage by making a lump sum payment within 90 days or by paying an additional $176 per week in child support until her arrearage is paid in full, for the total weekly child support payment of $800 per week," the documents read.

Amber's regular weekly child support to Andrew outside of the back support, has been set at $624 per week, according to the documents.

The court is also ordering Amber to pay $3,000 towards Andrew's attorney fees, and that the "parents are to divide all work-related childcare expenses… pursuant to their respective income percentage shares." 

The court also factored in the massive expenses that will likely be incurred as a result of James living in California and away from Amber in Indiana. 

"The court orders the parties shall divide the costs associated with the child travel expenses associated with parenting time pursuant to their respective income percentage shares. Any travel expenses incurred by the party for their own travel in relation to parenting times will be paid by that party." 

ALLOWED TO RELOCATE 

As The Sun exclusively revealed earlier, the Indiana court ruled in the 38-year-old father's favor and is allowing him to relocate with James to his family's $5 million Malibu estate. 

The court battle, which started in 2019 when the couple split after the Teen Mom star was arrested for domestic violence against Andrew, was decided just over three years later. 

In court documents, the judge granted Andrew's request to relocate and gave him sole legal and primary physical custody of James, while ordering that he "seek out and consider the mother's opinion before making any major decisions relating to the child's medical treatment, education and religion."  

The MTV star, who has not had overnight visitation with James since the 2019 domestic violence incident, has been granted overnights under the new custody arrangement which will be phased in incremental time frames. 

Amber's time with James will be exercised every month and it will alternate between California and Indiana. 

Amber will begin having three days of visitation including overnights in California first, then the following month Andrew will bring James to Indiana.   

In phase two, her visitation will be upped to five days, and in phase three there is an undetermined amount of days set forth with the document noting that "mother will have parenting time pursuant to the Indiana parenting guidelines with distance as a major factor based upon the age of the child."  

The phasing in of Amber's visitation schedule is to help their four-year-old son adjust to the new overnight routine, according to the judgment.  

The judge is also ordering that both Andrew and Amber submit to monthly drug screens for the next six months, while Amber is ordered: "to participate in individual counseling with the counselor of her selection and follow any recommendations made by the counselor."  

A WIN FOR AMBER   

As The Sun previously revealed, the reality star successfully completed her probation in relating to the July 2019 arrest.   

According to Indiana court records, Amber was officially discharged from probation on April 26, 2022.  

She completed a 26-week Batterer’s Intervention Program and paid a fine of $1,285.  

NASTY FIGHT   

In audio previously obtained by The Sun, Andrew revealed his plan in his petition to the court to relocate their son away from Amber in Indiana to his home state where he and James would live with his mother, Charmaine Witus, as they get settled into California.    

He currently lives with their son in a home Amber owns in Indiana, while she is living in a rental nearby.   

Charmaine's $5 million Malibu estate sits on over three-acres of property, and her home features five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a swimming pool, which can be seen in aerial photos, according to listings.     

In testimony during the custody hearing, Andrew's mother revealed there's also a separate guest house where his sister and her fiancé reside.   

Andrew was asking that the court not allow overnight visitation between Amber and James and that the reality star exercise her parenting time only in California.
