As fans have tuned in to the show for the second time around, Todd opened up about Kyle's current state and confessed on the show that he has struggled with bipolar disorder.

The reality TV dad's comments came just around the time that Kyle hurled accusations toward Todd that he not only took his two-year-old daughter Chloe from him, but forced him to leave the show.

Kyle, who says he is now happily married and drug-free told Daily Mail Friday, "My dad showed no interest in Chloe at all until the show and until it was pointed out that having a mixed race child and getting her and all that would be good for his demographic.

He didn't want to see her before then. He said he wanted nothing to do with her. This show has been nothing but bad for me. At this point he's ruined me and he's ruined the other three kids he's had who are spoiled."

He added that he has taken legal action and should have custody of his daughter again within the next few months.
