Birthdays: a time for cake, awkward family photos, and, if you’re Baylen Dupree, a full-blown relationship crisis. This week’s “Baylen Out Loud” finds our protagonist celebrating another year of navigating adulthood with Tourette’s, but the festive spirit quickly sours. The culprit? A well-intentioned but spectacularly misjudged birthday surprise from boyfriend Colin.
While the specifics remain shrouded in pre-broadcast secrecy, let’s just say Colin’s attempt at romance backfires with the force of a poorly-aimed confetti cannon. The ensuing fallout leaves Baylen questioning not only the gift itself but the very foundation of her relationship. Are she and Colin truly compatible? Can their connection withstand the added pressures of living with Tourette’s?
“I Have News” also turns its lens to the ever-supportive Dupree family. As Baylen grapples with romantic uncertainty, her family rallies around her, offering advice, comfort, and probably a healthy dose of eye-rolling at Colin’s blunder. It’s a familiar dynamic for viewers, but one that continues to be the show’s heart and soul.
This episode looks to be a potent cocktail of awkward humor, family warmth, and genuine relationship drama. Will Baylen and Colin find a way to bridge the communication gap? Or will this birthday blowout mark the end of their romantic road? We’ll find out Monday.
“Baylen Out Loud” airs Mondays at 10/9c on TLC.
