Teen Mom OG's Cory Wharton and his recently fired girlfriend Taylor Selfridge are once again facing backlash.

The couple, who welcomed their first child together back in April of this year, were photographed out vacationing in Mexico this past weekend at the adults-only O’Tulum hotel, according to The Sun. Pics published of the pair show them soaking up the sun in bathing suits, seemingly without their baby girl Mila. Of course, fans of the MTV franchise started talking, criticizing the two for carelessly going on vacation in the middle of a pandemic. Clearly from the pics below, they aren't even taking appropriate safety measures such as wearing face masks.

The post above received comments such as, "She looks good for just having a baby but I still think it’s irresponsible to be traveling to a different country while you have a newborn during these times," "There’s an entire virus going around and they have young children. Why would they risk it[?]," and "[People] really think corona is fake."

The conversation about Cory and Taylor's controversial trip also turned to Reddit, unsurprisingly, where one person wrote, "You know you're privileged when you're on vacation during a pandemic. A pandemic that has shut down many public places," and another added, "I tried really hard not to judge this situation but how can you leave your 2 month old?! I just don't understand. My mom guilt would eat me alive worrying that she's upset or confused that the 2 adults she depends on are all the sudden not there." A third scathing comment read, "I can’t imagine going straight from airplane/airport to see my two month old infant. These two are f**king idiots."

Clearly, taking an international trip right now is going to lead to major criticism, especially if you're leaving a young baby at home to do so.
