Studying Time: 4 minutes
Final month, we realized that Jenelle Evans had despatched son Jace to Florida to dwell along with his father, Andrew Lewis.
The choice raised pink flags for plenty of causes, not the least of which was that the 16-year-old had scarcely even met Lewis earlier than, and he had only in the near past moved from North Carolina to Nevada with Jenelle.
Within the weeks after the transfer, Jenelle gave a number of interviews during which she claimed that Jace was thriving in his new surroundings and bonding along with his dad like by no means earlier than.
Now, nevertheless, there’s motive to consider that the association has already fallen aside, and the 2 are not residing collectively.
Jace’s scenario in Florida was ‘not good,’ insider says
In line with a brand new report from The Ashley’s Actuality Roundup, Jenelle shipped Jace off to a extremely unstable scenario, and the residing association didn’t final very lengthy.
“The situation at Andrew’s home was not good. Andrew is in no way in the position to be raising a kid, especially one who barely knows him and didn’t want to be there in the first place,” says The Ashley’s supply, including:
“Jace lasted lower than two weeks with Andrew. He’s not there anymore. Andrew just isn’t mature sufficient to boost a baby by any means.
The insider explains that Jenelle “took Andrew and his family’s word that he had changed,” however she didn’t really go to the house herself or in any other case examine the scenario earlier than sending Jace there.
“Jace didn’t choose to go live with Andrew. It was decided for him,” the supply added. “And he hated it here. And he was very upset with Jenelle for sending him. No one is surprised this didn’t work out.”
Jenelle’s facet of the story
That information might come as a shock to followers, as Jenelle has spent the previous few weeks gushing about how effectively Jace and Andrew are getting alongside.
“He just, he needed his dad. And his dad hasn’t been involved in his life since he’s been a baby,” she stated throughout a current look on the “Fargo Talks” YouTube present.
“It was time. Everyone’s like, ‘Why’d you send him to a stranger?’ But that’s his dad. That’s his other side of his family,” Evans continued.
“And they’ve actually been keeping in contact and visiting each other for the past two years. So, they’ve been reconnecting and they’ve been texting each other. And I’ve been monitoring everything.”
Jenelle went on to elucidate that Andrew had suffered from alcoholism for years, however he now claims to be sober (and naturally, no addict has ever lied about their sobriety).
“[Andrew] was an alcoholic, but his family says [Andrew] is sober now. And that was years ago when I was, like, 16,” Jenelle stated, including:
“They’re doing great. Ever since I sent him there, they’ve sent me pictures of them fishing. He’s in Florida so they went out on the beach. They eat at the pier. They do so many good things, and they’re not posting about it, which is great. Because I told [Andrew], I said, ‘He needs privacy right now.’”
Sadly, The Ashley’s supply says that Andrew remains to be as much as his outdated tips and is in no place to be elevating a teen.
“Andrew has not changed. I don’t understand why she would say that. Anyone around here knows that’s not true,” stated the insider.
Sadly, we don’t should guess at Jenelle’s motives right here, as she advised “Fargo Talks” that she wanted to get Jace out of the home attributable to his psychological well being points, however non-public care amenities value “$30,000 a month, $1000 a day or more,” and Evans’ “hands are tied” as a result of she doesn’t “have the money.”
In feedback each on YouTube and to Entry Hollywood, Jenelle has expressed optimism about Andrew and Jace’s new relationship.
As The Ashley factors out, we don’t know when these interviews have been filmed, so we don’t know if Jenelle was mendacity, or if the scenario had not but deteriorated.
Regardless of the case, the insider appears sure that Jace is not residing with Andreww
