TEEN Mom alum Nathan Griffith looks like he’s aged quickly during his latest stint in prison.
In his latest mugshot, former MTV star Nathan, 38, has deep wrinkles in his brows and a long beard as he serves time behind bars in Nevada after he was arrested twice for domestic violence in the past few years.
As The U.S. Sun previously reported, he was sentenced to four years in prison in May 2025 after he was charged with domestic battery in 2023 and again two years later.
He was busted for strangling his sister Heather in the first incident, then charged with assaulting his ex-girlfriend Anastasia and violating his probation in the second.
Nathan had a hearing to request an early release on parole in April, The Ashley’s Reality Roundup first reported.
“I have failed in my decision-making,” Nathan said during the hearing, according to the outlet.
“I have failed in numerous of things I have done in life. And I have failed as a human. Words cannot express how regrettable I am in for my decisions and actions.
“Over the last few years, I became so pathetic that I didn’t care about myself or anything, not even my life.
“I’m sure the parole board has received a few letters describing who I was in my former years, of how great of a person I was.
“We can sit here listening to the many marvelous things I have done and accomplished, or how nice, kind and charitable I am.”

“But the attributes and accomplishments did not land me here in prison.
“My lack of insight and compassion, and selfishness has put me here. I was hurting so intensely inside that I couldn’t manage my pain nor myself.”
He also admitted he struggles with alcoholism, The Ashley added.
As The U.S. Sun reported, he checked into rehab in 2024, though sobriety did not seem to stick.
Nathan is actively working to change his life in prison, he claimed during the parole hearing, completing 11 education certificates, including a trauma program and anger management course.
His parole was approved in July, though he does not have to legally be released until November.
Nathan is the ex-fiancee and second baby daddy of Teen Mom star Jenelle Evans, with whom he shares son Kaiser, 12.
Nathan is still married to May Oyola after their 2022 wedding, despite separating for a brief time in 2025.
In 2021, he told The U.S. Sun he struggles with PTSD and other mental health issues after serving time in the United States Marine Corps.
