Teen Mom OGstarAmber Portwood‘s boyfriend, Andrew Glennon, is speaking out about Portwood’sarrest earlier this monthafter she allegedly attacked him while he was holding their 14-month-old son, James.

Glennon, 35,filed for custodyof James shortly after her arrest and says that he is now trying to cultivate as safe an environment as possible for the toddler.

“The future’s unknown,” he said. “All I know is what I need to do, like, right now, and that is to provide James with a safe, secure happy environment.”

Glennon said that the incident, which allegedly took place on July 5, brought his world crashing down.

“If you could imagine having your whole world and everything that you love flipped upside down in a heartbeat, that’s it,” he told theDaily Mail. “There’s gonna be a lot of healing that needs to be done and repairing between James and I.”

Nearly two weeks after Portwood, 29, was arrested and charged with domestic battery, she posted acryptic messageon Instagram about infidelity, leading some to wonder if Glennon had cheated on her.

But Glennon told theDaily Mailthat the message was not about him.

“My name was never mentioned in the post that she released,” he said. “I guess it was just rough timing.”

“People are just going to slap it on me,” he added. “It’s a bashing of my character, and what hurts, I guess, is the fact that she hasn’t come out and made a statement to say, ‘You know, I wasn’t talking about Andrew, I was talking about somebody else.'”

This isn’t the first time that Portwood has had problems with domestic violence. Shepreviously served 17 monthsfor domestic violence after a fight with ex Gary Shirley in 2010.

Shirleytweeted in supportof Portwood — with whom he shares their 10-year-old daughter Leah — on Monday, saying he wishes her well.
