A transgender teenager and his pregnant girlfriend are part of the cast of the new “Teen Mom” series “Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant.”

MTV dropped the first trailer for the series which introduces a new group of young moms-to-be: Brianna, 17, Ashley, 20, Jade, 20, Kayla, 18, and Lexi, 17.

Brianna’s story follows her and her transgender boyfriend Danae as they prepare for the baby’s arrival.

According to MTV’s show description, “Brianna and her transgender boyfriend Danae have always had a tumultuous relationship and during one breakup, Brianna hooked up with an old friend and got pregnant. Now Danae is back in the picture and has promised to raise the baby as his own, but Brianna’s mom questions Danae’s ability to support her daughter with their on- and off-again relationship.”

In the trailer, Brianna explains that she fell in love with Danae for “who he is.”

“Me being trans I can show them there is so much more to this world,” Danae says in the trailer.

“Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant” premieres on Monday, March 12 at 10 p.m. on MTV.
