It looks like it's official this time -- Mackenzie (Douthit) McKee is divorcing husband Josh for real. Although these two have had breakups in the past, they've always made up fairly quickly. But Mack just made a confession on Instagram that we weren't expecting, and it looks like things are good and done this time around.

It started out as a sweet picture of the newest 'Teen Mom OG' star and her furbabies, but she dropped some knowledge in the comments section.-placeholder

Mackenzie's marital strife with Josh was chronicled on the latest season of Teen Mom OG, which she joined as Bristol Palin departed. She was previously seen on Sixteen and Pregnant, and also the short-lived Teen Mom 3. We've also been watching her deal with her mom's terminal cancer diagnosis, which seems to be what ultimately put her marriage to Josh into a tailspin.

When someone complimented the mom of three on her physique, Mack had quite the reply.

A fan said that she was looking lean, and Mackenzie replied that it was the result of divorce stress.-placeholder

First off, should we be worried about Mackenzie losing 15 pounds? Girlfriend is already teeny-tiny -- we didn't know she even had 15 pounds to lose. Hopefully she's taking care of herself and not dropping more weight. We know she's been through so much stress lately, but she needs to stay healthy, for herself and her kids.

Second, Mackenzie revealed in a second comment that she is the one who filed for divorce from Josh, and not the other way around.

Considering what else she's said about Josh lately, we're going to consider this the final nail in the coffin.-placeholder

Considering what else she's said about Josh lately, we're going to consider this the final nail in the coffin.

It wasn't until Mackenzie started watching her storyline on MTV that she realized just how deceptive Josh had been to her. She said in an interview with Us Weekly last month, "Turns out, Josh is not a good man whatsoever. Watching the show and catching him in lies, seeing how independent he is, I realize I deserve better."

She added, "I have fought for this marriage for many years, and lately, I've really opened my eyes to what a horrible person he is."

Even though Josh and Mackenzie have reconciled in the past, this time seems different.-placeholder

Even though Josh and Mackenzie have reconciled in the past, this time seems different.

After all, Mack is the one who is calling the shots this time, not the other way around. By the time women file for divorce, it usually means they are D-O-N-E, and over any second (or third or fourth) chances they may have given. Plus Mackenzie has had the stress and trauma of caring for her mom, not knowing how long she has to live, and having to tell her children that their grandma is dying.

We hate that she's going through a divorce right now, too, but if Josh really isn't going to be the husband she needs and deserves, then it's for the best. We just hope she keeps herself healthy and doesn't lose any more weight.
