The single life seems to be treating former Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans very well. The newly 28-year-old TV personality finally returned to her Instagram today to post some birthday pictures of herself.

In the wintry pics, she seems to be glowing while looking beautiful in a mustard sweater. Evans captioned the post, “‘Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself to become a new person.’ - Gerard Way #HappyBirthdayToMe.”

This is the first post the mom-of-three has shared on the platform since she announced her split from her estranged husband, David Eason, on Halloween. Since then, Jenelle has moved from “The Land” in North Carolina to Nashville, Tennessee. She has also obtained a restraining order against Eason, who she reportedly claimed in the paperwork was physically and verbally abusive to her “at least 11 times” during their two-year marriage.

Fans and followers immediately took notice to Jenelle's radiance. One user posted, “It's a new start, go and show everyone sweetie. You do [not] need a man, be [an] independent woman first, love your self [sic] and some will then love you fully x.” Another commented, “You look happy and healthy.”

Hopefully Jenelle can keep her new shine as the divorce continues next year.
