Barbara Evans Posts Pic of Jace and Ensley Looking Happy After Jenelle Loses Custody

It is no secret that former Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans has been having her share of trouble, but despite the drama, it seems that her children, Jace and Ensley, are happy hanging with Grandma.
Evans’ mother, Barbara Evans, posted a picture on Instagram of the little ones in front of a helicopter on Saturday with a caption that said, “Coast Guard Day.” The children look like they are having a fun day outdoors in the picture, with their grandmother and cousin Gabriel.
Around the same time Barbara shared the photo of the children, Jenelle posted a photo of her homegrown vegetables.
27-year-old Jenelle and her 30-year-old husband, David Eason, recently failed to regain custody of her kids and his daughter, 11-year-old Maryssa, during their May 28 court appearance.
Us Weekly reported that “Barbara already had custody of Jace, 9, who Jenelle shares with ex Andrew Lewis, while Ensley, 2, Eason’s daughter with his wife, was placed in her grandmother’s care. Kaiser, 4, is still with his father, Nathan Griffith.”
The North Carolina judge denied Jenelle and Eason custody after Eason killed Jenelle’s dog, Nugget, after she supposedly bit Eason’s daughter. The judge told the couple that they “failed to protect the children while they were in her care.”
Barbara has remained supportive and hopeful of Jenelle, telling E! News, “Of course I would like for Jenelle to get them all back eventually, but certain things have to happen first.”
