As fans pushed back on Johnny's seemingly-controlling demand that Amy go on birth control despite her health concerns, the reality star spoke to People about what he really meant with all of this.
First, Johnny wants fans to know that the whole topic was "kind of spun the wrong way," as he told People.
"I do want to have kids, but I want to, number one, be able to actually experience life with Amy and grow and really evolve with her as a couple before we welcome kids into the mix," he told the outlet.
Johnny went on to clarify that he would welcome the opportunity to become a father once the couple has a "strong foundation."
"When things come up with kids, because I hear for a lot of parents too, the first couple of years are rough. You're sleep-deprived, you're not really your normal self you were way back when," Johnny also said. "So I wanted to know Amy for herself first and actually to know her before we were welcome kids into the mix."
Still, fans aren't really vibing with Johnny, with many taking to social media, including his Instagram, to urge the reality star to consider a form of birth control that hasn't been discussed: condoms.
