Bio:
Jenelle Evans (born on December 19 1991 in Oak Island, North Carolina) is an American reality TV star. She rose to fame in MTV’s hit shows 16 and Pregnant, where she chronicled the trials and tribulations faced as a pregnant teen. She then starred in Teen Mom 2, which documented her new life with her son, Jace Vahn. Jenelle is a notorious partier and drinker and has run away from home before. She has an impressive criminal record: she has been arrested for breaking and entering, drug possession, driving without a license and assault. In 2017, she followed a tailgater to his house and pulled out a gun with her son in the car. Currently, her mother has custody of Jace. The grandmother of her other two kids, Kaiser and Ensley Eaton, is battling her for custody as well.

Personal Life:
Jenelle gave birth to Jace in 2009, whose father is Jenelle’s ex-boyfriend, Andrew Lewis. Jenelle also dated Keiffer Delp, with whom she was arrested for breaking and entering and drug possession. In 2012, the reality star was engaged for two weeks to on-again off-again boyfriend, Gary Head, who has been arrested for assaulting Jennelle. Jenelle continued to waffle back and forth between Gary Head and Keiffer, before marrying Courtland Rogers in December 2012 after a whirlwind romance. Soon after, she suffered a miscarriage when she alleged Courtland assaulted her and filed for divorce. She entered rehab in March 2013. Soon after going through recovery, she started dating Nathan Griffith. The pair announced Jenelle was pregnant again in Dec. 2013, and their son, Kaiser, arrived on June 30, 2014. After splitting from Nathan, Jenelle began dating David Eason, and their daughter, Ensley, was born in Jan. 2017.
