The first mom Dr. Drew checks up on is Chelsea, who is now married to her longtime friend, Cole. They have a young daughter, Aubree, and are also in the process of building a new house. Dr. Drew asks Chelsea how she is doing, and she shares that things are going well with Cole, and they are excited about their new house.

Finally, Dr. Drew checks up on Leah, who has three daughters with her ex-husband, Corey, and one daughter with her ex-husband, Jeremy.
