Is Teen Mom star, Maci Bookout’s clothing line, Things That Matter (TTM), at risk of shutting down? It appears that this could be a very real possibility but why would that happen? More so, are Maci and her husband, Taylor McKinney ready to let their beloved business go? Keep reading for more details.
Maci Bookout has been on reality television since she was a pregnant teenager. She started on 16 & Pregnant along with her boyfriend, Ryan Edwards. They then welcomed their son, Bentley, and soon joined the spinoff, Teen Mom where they got engaged and tried to make their romance work. Unfortunately, they failed and Maci moved on as did Ryan. Eventually, Maci met and married Taylor McKinney. The duo had two children and raised Bentley together while Ryan was struggling with substance abuse issues. He had gotten married as well to Mackenzie Standifer Edwards and they also had two children.
Along with reality television, like other Teen Mom cast members, Maci penned some books and started a clothing line with her husband. They developed Things That Matter (TTM) in 2013 with him taking over in 2015. Now, they had struggled in the past with their line, per In Radar Online. Back in 2019, TTM had been dissolved as the couple failed to file the necessary paperwork. A clerk had this to say:
“The company failed to file the annual report that was due on April 1, 2019.”
Luckily, Maci and Taylor could save TTM if they did what was necessary, everything would be fine which it seems they did. They had the same issue in 2016 and now, it appears they have yet to learn their lesson. According to The Sun, their license was dissolved as of August 10th, 2024. This was done by the Tennessee Secretary of State’s office. Once again, their annual report was not filed and Maci Bookout’s husband must do so to get it back.
Despite not being in “good standing,” Taylor and Maci can keep running TTM for the time being.
When it comes to their business credit score, TTM allegedly has a 46 out of 100 on Experian. That means that they are a “medium risk” business. So, what does that mean in the grand scheme of things?
“This score predicts the likelihood of serious credit delinquencies within the next 12 months.”
Maci Bookout and Taylor McKinney have not slowed down when it comes to promoting their business on Instagram. They posted as of one day ago, with a bag in Maci’s handwriting. The brand also has T-shirts, sweatpants, sweatshirts, and a variety of relaxed options. Maci and Taylor have modeled for the company so hopefully, they can file what they need to to get back on track.
Are you shocked by this turn of events or do you think they got away with falling behind twice so they will keep operating this way?
