Jenelle Evans has reconciled with her ex-husband David Eason, but there are a few good reasons she’s doing her best to keep that fact hidden.
On Wednesday, someone sold TMZ yet another story about Jenelle, in which a “witness” (who is absolutely, positively not Jenelle herself) claimed to have seen Jenelle and her reinstated soulmate David dining together in Las Vegas with their daughter Ensley and Jenelle’s son Kaiser. That “witness” (who, again, is definitely not Jenelle herself) claimed that the soulmates are not back together and that the vibe between Jenelle and David “was anything but romantic” and that they were “kinda cold” and acting distant toward each other.
According to The Ashley’s source, this is all BS.
“They have to make it seem like they don’t like each other and are just ‘coparenting’ for several reasons,” the source stated. “First, Jenelle can’t handle the backlash she’s getting for going back to David after accusing him of being abusive and having materials on his phone that were sexually exploiting a minor.”
However, the source says there are two even bigger reasons for someone to plant the story insisting David and Jenelle are not back together.
“First, her custody court hearing is coming up,” the source said, referring to the hearing next month in which she will go head-to-head against her mom Barbara, who is trying to get custody back of Jenelle’s eldest son, Jace.)
“The fact that Jenelle is back with David will absolutely be used against her in the court battle, and it will look very bad for her if she admits to reconciling with the man who has charges against him for [allegedly] assaulting Jace,” the source said. “A few days ago, people online figured out that Jenelle and David were at the same restaurant together based on their separate posts, so they had to do damage control to explain that away.
“That is also why Jenelle hasn’t been posting those sly hints online about her being back with David that she had been posting before Barbara filed for custody of Jace,” the source added.
However, there is an even bigger reason for Jenelle to hide the fact that David is back in the mix.
A court clerk for Brunswick County, North Carolina, confirmed to The Ashley on Thursday that the domestic violence protective order (DVPO) that Jenelle took out on David in May 2024 and had renewed in December 2024 is, indeed, still active.
The court clerk confirmed that the DVPO would have to be dismissed by a judge and that no judge has dismissed it as of press time.
The protective order is valid and in effect until November 13, 2026, meaning David is not supposed to be near Jenelle, or her home. (David is not legally barred from seeing Ensley, however.)
“There is nothing new in the file,” the court clerk confirmed to The Ashley, meaning a judge has not yet dismissed the protective order.
You can listen to the video below to hear audio of Jenelle testifying in court in December 2025 about why she was in fear of David and in need of a two-year restraining order.

The Ashley does great work staying on top of this, doing legwork and using public records instead of just reposting the same stuff everywhere else.
i just wanted to say thank you. Especially since it’s helping Jace, and keeping tabs on him so Janelle cant just shove him off until after swamp monsters trial.
Honestly wish the judge could sentence him to be forced to remain in his natural habitat and be confined to either 1) the Louisiana bayous, or 2) the Florida evergaldes.
Bless Barbara.
Didn’t she admit it while texting with the other teen mom Ashley? She showed the texts
It’s hilarious Jenelle thinks selling stories lying about her not being back with David is going to help her. What happens when she’s asked under oath if she is back with him? Perjury is a felony Juh-nelle…
I don’t see my comment in the previous post anymore so I will ask again here. Does anyone know of a way to get mail to Jace? I would love to start a letter-writing and/or card-sending campaign to show Jace how much we all support him and believe in him. Given that he has NEVER gotten these things and that his vile witch of a “mother” has now cut off communication with Barbara (aka: the only one whoever gave a damn about that kid), I think that it would be really helpful if he were to see just how many of us are out here wanting the best for him and the fact that we want it so badly that we are writing him to tell him so would really help him to deal with the ongoing trauma that he keeps being put through by Jenelle.
That’s weird. He’s a minor leave him alone .
Please do not try to contact Jace. It’s sad enough for the boy to have his whole traumatic childhood aired on television. He doesn’t need to deal with strangers contacting him while he’s locked away.
This is completely inappropriate. Leave him alone!
We already told you this is a terrible idea. I get you wanna cheer him up but its weird to contact a minor. Leave him alone
Wasn’t there supposed to be a psychological evaluation before UBT was allowed any time with Ensley? Curious what will happen when the courts find out he has been around her without this being completed.
So why can’t somebody in Vegas call police and say David is violating the RO order? Why can’t he be put in handcuffs and arrested in Vegas? This has been going on since early February now with these 2 losers.. Jenelle is the biggest loser, and so is David. Both need to be held accountable, BOTH!!
As soon as they get wasted and fight that should happen.
LOL funny you say this because I’ve literally been just waiting for this to happen because it will and it will also be what blows up her little story about supposedly NOT being with her in a romantic sense/in general.
You dont even have to be in Vegas. Call Columbus County PD @ (910) 642-6551 (where the report was originally made and filed) and tell them she’s making a laughing stock of their department and restraining orders in general and breaking the order, with pictorial proof on social media. She could be arrested for this, dependant on how far the PD wants to take it. The more reports, the more likely something will be done. Do ittttt
Why can’t?
Why hasn’t anyone?
God, i hope karma gets her reeeeeal good soon. She is such an vile excuse of a human
I’m sure Barb will be bringing up the active protective order she has against him in court that they are both proudly violating on social media. This shows clear abuse of and disregard for law, not to mention safety and welfare risk of the children.
She’ll be calling the cops on him in no time. You can take the girl out of the trailer, but you can’t take the trailer out of the girl.
Does anyone know how Jenelle is making money now? She’s been off TV for several years and I can’t imagine she was smart enough to invest any of her her money she made before so I highly doubt she’s making money that way. I can’t imagine she makes a lot of money off of her onlyfans lol (if she even does that anymore).
Only Fans is her income.
Only Fans. She has made A LOT of money over there.
There are some pervy weirdos out there if she makes enough to live on with OF. Mr Homophobe David was also on OF for awhile because he is allergic to work due to Vitiligo 🙄 He’s too stupid to realize it wasn’t women that were looking at his site 🙄🙄 Same with Tyler and his red thong 🤮
Lol, Shes made wayyy less than what she reports. Most of her subscribers are there purely for morbid curiosity and aren’t regulars at all, one or two time watchers. Personally I cant imagine spending anything to see her gross swampy roast beef even once but..
Only Fans and social media. She receives a lot of money from social media platforms each month. Thousands. Unfollow and do not click or watch unless you want to sponsor her horrible efforts to purposely hurt Jace and others.
It’s only fans, and sadly it’s a lot of money. However, she blows it immediately.
David is her photographer again.
I am not surprised she is back with David, she doesn’t cope with being on her own and he is the only person that can tolerate her
I can’t say I’m at all shocked, honestly. I always thought that’s why she wouldn’t part with the house or any of the things on the land. I think she always planned to reconcile.
Who could love that dipshit looking face! (😉Choose your own adventure on which one I am taking about 🤣)
Is there a way those pictures she recently posted with David can be used as a means to discredit her in court? Gosh I hope so. That needs to be brought up. That, along with the fact that David is now around Kaiser, who Jenelle herself confirmed is terrified of David, surely something can be done and it can be used against her as evidence? The system has failed all these kids on every front. Our justice system is ass.
Yes, and ai guarantee you they will be.
She needs to lose custody at this point. She’s a certified vile witch! Can’t handle the heat your getting from going back to the only beast that would have you? Interesting. Getting all she deserves.
She’s really something wow
