Who is Jenelle Evans' Brother? Ex 'Teen Mom 2' Star's Daughter Ensley Appears on Colin Evans' Social
Former Teen Mom 2 stars Jenelle Evans and David Eason have lost custody of their children, and while the couple plans to fight to get them back, the kids are all in other family members' care as of now. Jenelle's mom Barbara is taking care of both Jace, nine, and Ensley, two, and it looks like Jenelle's brother Colin is now in the picture as well.
Jenelle has two siblings: Colin and Ashleigh, both of whom she says she does not get along with nor has contact with. As Us Weekly reports, Colin shared a video of Ensley crying to social media this week, which was brought up by Jenelle during her argument with Barbara outside the courthouse yesterday. You can watch the video of Ensley here. The 27-year-old reality star also spoke out on the post, telling Us: "This video was sent to my phone today of my daughter being in extreme distress and crying for her 'Mommy.' I have no clue why this video was posted by my brother."
She also explained that she's taking legal action over her brother being involved. "I do not speak to him and do not want him around any children with the state of mind that Colin is in," Jenelle said. "This has already been reported by authorities and taking the correct steps to handle this situation the best we can."
This is hardly the first time Jenelle and Colin have had drama. As we previously reported, the former MTV star's 2017 book Read Between the Lines: From the Diary of a Teenage Mom recounted growing up with her brother, claiming he had developmental problems and accidentally burned down their childhood home. More recently, Colin called out Jenelle on Facebook in Aug. 2018, saying that she was "[lying] for fame."
Fans are pretty much in agreement that Colin might not be the best person to take care of Ensley, but as long as Barbara has temporary custody of her, it doesn't seem Jenelle has much say in who's around her daughter.
