Jenelle Evans has never been a fan favorite on Teen Mom 2.
In fact, if you’re a fan of the show, you may find frequently find yourself wondering how it is that Jenelle’s not incarcerated.
These days, of course, Jenelle is engaged to David Eason.
It’s part of her new “after three kids, I’m finally settling into some semblance of quiet domesticity, j/k I’m still completely bonkers” persona.
It makes for compelling viewing and social media stalking because you never know what Jenelle you’re in store for from one day to the next.
One day, Jenelle is pretending to be a sane human being, the next, she’s attacking Eason’s sister on Facebook.
It’s all very exciting.
Anyway, as Jenelle and David spend more time in one another’s presence they spend less time wearing their masks and more time showing their true selves.
And some TM2 fans aren’t liking what they’re seeing from Eason.
“David is starting to behave differently,” tweeted one fan. “You need to be careful.”
Jenelle quickly fired back, writing:
“Not true, you will see. Everything is always manipulated.”
It might sound like Jenelle is delving into a Morpheus-like argument about the mutable nature of reality, but really when she claims that everything fans see is “manipulated,” she’s accusing Teen Mom 2 editors of creating a false impression of her homelife.
It’s a common tactic, and at this point, just about everyone on the cast has used it at least once.
But in Jenelle’s case, it seems viewers may have good reason to believe Jenelle’s sons really want nothing to do with her fiance.
Unfortunately, it seems Jenelle is doing everything in her power to avoid addressing or even acknowledging the issue.
One recent scene in particular touched a nerve, as Jenelle’s oldest son, Jace, begged his grandmother to let him stay with her so that he wouldn’t have to spend time with Eason.
“Jace doesn’t want to go,” tweeted one fan while the episode was airing.
“Show Jenelle that footage. As a mom, she should understand,” the viewer continued.
Unfortunately, it seems that despite the fact that Jenelle has been engaged five times (that we know of), she remains susceptible to the sort of love blindness that prevents her from seeing the many red flags surrounding David.
Watch Teen Mom 2 online to decide for yourself if David is dangerous, or just harmlessly douchey.
