Former 'Teen Mom 2' Star David Eason Returns to Instagram With Controversial Posts
By Kwadar Ray
Former Teen Mom 2 star David Eason is no stranger to controversy. The 30-year-old husband to Jenelle Evans has a long history of infuriating Teen Mom fans due to his alleged assault on Jenelle, along with his homophobic comments and strong political opinions.
Among the controversies Eason has instigated includes an Instagram post from last November featuring him shooting multiple rounds of fire in the woods, with the caption: "They will say I've gone off the deep end just wait for it! #bangbangbang #bumpfire#bumpthis #nancypelosi #trump#maga."
The mentioning of Donald Trump and Nancy Pelosi got the former reality star in hot water, and reportedly led to Secret Service visiting his and Jenelle's home due to the possibility of a terroristic threat. In another IG post last December, Eason said he, "hopes and prays that nobody ever tries to trespass on my property as they will be met with fire and fury, the likes of which they have never seen before."
Since his gun-cuddling post, Eason only shared one more post to his IG page before taking a hiatus, leaving many fans confused. However, he returned to the 'Gram on Saturday with a brand new account.
Eason explained what happened to his old account in one of his four new posts. “And just [to] kind of fill you guys in on what’s going on here. My other account still works, but not for me,” he said in a video. “It’s there, it exists, it’s still on Instagram, but for some reason, Instagram has blocked me from using it. Would you believe that s**t?"
"My other account is still there, it still obviously works for everyone except for me," he continued. "It just goes to a blank white screen, it’s like, ‘Oops, sorry! There’s a problem!’ Obviously, there is a f**king problem."
Eason's most recent post features the kids with a rifle, which led to many fans condemning Eason and Jenelle's parenting skills.
"How can u let a little boy hold a gun or even be near one?," one user commented on the post.
Eason was fired from MTV last year due to homophobic tweets, so since he essentially has nothing to lose now, we expect more controversial social media posts.
