Kieffer Delp— the most well-known ex of Teen Mom star Jenelle Evans— recently popped onto social media to give the world an update on his life.
When we last checked in with him, Jenelle’s infamous former booooooyfriend— who appeared for years with her on Teen Mom 2— had recently gotten out of jail, was newly sober and had just become a first-time father. In a series of recent posts to Facebook and X, Kieffer informed his followers that he’s about to be a father again.
“Well I’m having another baby and I just found out she’s she,” he tweeted on Thursday. “Awww can’t wait to meet you lil lady.”
Over the past few months, Kieffer expressed how fatherhood has changed his life.
“It’s good being a daddy,” he wrote on X last month.
“My little girl is my whole world and I ain’t got no problem with that,” he posted several months ago.

Unfortunately for The Kieff, it appears that he is no longer with his baby’s mother. In November, he hinted that he was in a custody fight over his oldest child. (It is unknown if Kieffer’s unborn second child has the same mother as his first.)
“Well as soon as you think s**t’s going well bam life hits,” he wrote. “Now I’m single and fighting to see my daughter but I’m still clean. No excuses no dramatic fall. Just persistence and a love for my little girl that will not be broken by anything. I’ll never give up baby I promise.”
On Facebook, he expressed his feelings about the custody fight and got a surprising show of support from Jenelle.
“I will not live without my babies……. pray for me,” Kieffer wrote in a post, which Jenelle liked.
He also wrote about his promise not to go back to his previous life of drugs and crimes.
“Yea in two years I could be sitting in rehab or jail with a real good sob story as to why I relapsed,” he wrote. “A bunch of good excuses why I’m not taking care of my daughter and a whirlwind of intentions to get back on track. Yea, f**k that. Stay strong. Drugs will ease the pain for 5 seconds and bring you years of misery for it no matter what the obstacle how f**ked over you think you have been stay clean. Keep a clear head..”
As The Ashley previously told you back in June 2022, Kieffer was thrown behind bars and charged with one count of misdemeanor theft and one count of criminal conspiracy. (Much like Jenelle’s feelings for Kieffer, the conspiracy charge was eventually dropped.)
Before that, Kieffer pleaded guilty in 2018 to operating a meth lab (in the kitchen of his apartment, as you do), as well as a manufacturing charge and a “risking catastrophe” charge. He spent 18 months in prison before being released in February 2020.
It’s no surprise that Jenelle is offering Kieffer support. In September, she named Kieffer as the one man from her past that she’d like to reconnect with.
“If he had his life together and stable I would be up for that,” Jenelle said of Kieffer in an interview with The Sun. “He’s really funny, he was really protective of me and the only problem between our relationship was him, ya know, being on drugs.”
Jenelle has yet to comment on Kieffer’s latest posts.

As an older woman I will tell you the truth as hard as it is.. unfortunately men like him do not change. Sure you’ll hear a story about how it happened to someone’s friends bf, he was a total loser his whole life and eventually grew up.. but men like this do not change. He will always be what he is right now, it’s too late to change a man at this point. He’s all talk
Janelle still liking his posts after allll these years is actually pathetic as fuck.
I hope he remains clean and sober and has a positive relationship with his children. Nothing but positive vibes here.
Ps- One way to stick to the clean and sober thing is to stay as far from Janelle as humanly possible.
Pretty sad and ridiculous that out of all people, he got his life and shit together before jenelle.
Janelle went on to date and marry much more violent men than Kieffer. It’s good to see Kieffer clean. I bet he’s 100% clean and not “California sober” too. When you have no money, you are forced to turn to State funded rehabs where they push the 12 step model on you daily.
Glad to hear Kieffer is still trying and seems to be sober. That definitely takes accountability, patience, and self work. Hopefully he gets to see his children and is involved in a healthy way coparenting with the mother(s) as well.
Keifer was an angry drunk during that second season he appeared, just before the drug stuff. Jumping out of cars, etc.
He was scary more than he was funny when he was drinking.
Glad he got his life together.
He needs to stop creating broken homes, just like all of the men and women on TM.
Thank you. I think people forget that he was not a big teddy bear. He was a hardcore addict. Hope he stays sober for his kids.
He definitely wasn’t nice. Back in the day on Twitter, I got friendly with his gf at the time and we exchanged dms a few times. He completely randomly went off on me for no reason, even his gf was shocked. He was a nasty piece of work.
Every once in a while there’s a villain you can’t help but love and Keiffer is one of those for me.
I’m glad he’s doing well!
Agreed. I did see potential in him. He had some serious demons stemming from a terrible childhood. I’m glad to see he’s doing well.
Well, it looks like this guy is at least trying now. Fighting for custody, do you hear that Nathan, you POS?! He just needs to stay away from Jenelle. Don’t go back, she will make you relapse again.
I love how she mentions drugs as the problem as if she wasn’t also on those said drugs.
I think Jenelle’s new man will be some bum who doesn’t know anything about her past. Just like David’s now ex didn’t.
Just stay away from Juhnelle
Keep at it Keiffer! We wouldn’t want to see you living on the streets with ya girlfrennnnnnn.
Out of her 4 main soulmates, K-dawg is the only one that I’d root for. I really hope he keeps going….and stays the HELL away from Jenelle! That girl will bring you down faster than the Titanic in green sweatpants, Kieffer!
I thought Kieffa had a child older than Jace too.
He was the best of Janelle’s soulmates and hopefully he continues with a successful recovery. He’s more redeemable than Nathan or David.
He does. I forget the gender but now that I think about it, I remember Jenelle saying he had a son. So now he has three kids.
I swear, whenever I see a persons face on here I think they have died. I am rooting for him, hopefully he keeps up the good work on his sobriety. It must be hard to try to stay clean while also going thru a breakup and living without your kids.
It’s almost an inevitable headline considering how many of these reality ppl live their lives.
Same!
I pray he is lifted out of darkness for everyone’s good sake, including his own daughters
Yes, prayers will cure addiction lol. Clueless
