Jenelle Evans Defends David Eason Before Dog Killing Incident: He ‘Doesn’t Have the Chance’ to Tell His Side

Lights, Camera, Action

Jenelle, 27, got candid about her relationship with David, 30, on the May 6 episode of Teen Mom 2. While chatting with a friend, she expressed how frustrated she was with the filming situation.

Show Disclaimer

Before the scene began, a message on the screen flashed. “Because of David’s earlier texts threatening that he would show up to shoots and force production to shut down, MTV crews are still not able to film in North Carolina with Jenelle,” it read.

Shocking Comparison

Jenelle explained how she was tired of David not being able to tell his side of the story. “It’s kind of like the R. Kelly thing,” Jenelle said. “They went and interviewed all these different people but they didn’t interview R. Kelly to see what he had to think about it.”

Firing Back at Nay-Sayers

“I feel like everyone here is, like, just filming about David, David, David, David,” she added. “And David doesn’t get to say nothing about anything. He doesn’t get to say s–t about nothing.”

On the Go

The mother-of-three later met up with her costar, Briana DeJesus, and revealed how the constant traveling for filming is impacting her relationship with David.

Facing the Consequences

“He gets mad and he’ll text, ‘This is BS,’” Jenelle explained. “‘My wife has to go out of town. This is f–ked up.’ Larry was like, ‘Because of what David texted we won’t come down.’ I was like, ‘Larry he won’t do anything I promise!’ He was like, ‘Nope we’re not comfortable.'”

Sticking By His Side

Even so, Jenelle revealed that she was happy with the state of their relationship at the time. “He doesn’t cheat on me, he doesn’t do anything wrong as a husband. He’s perfect. It’s just, we argue about filming,” she said.

Sharing His Thoughts

“You have to understand where he’s coming from as a person. Like, his family’s being filmed, and he can’t be involved,” she added. “That hurts his feelings.”

Another Perspective

“It’s about being a dad, showing he’s a dad, because everyone says he’s not a dad and that he doesn’t do s–t and he’s a piece of s–t,” Jenelle continued. “They think he just sits at home every day. No, he’s home schooling his 10-year-old daughter every day.”

Facing Backlash

Jenelle and David have been at the center of controversy as of late. On April 30, a shocking report surfaced revealing that David killed Jenelle’s dog Nugget.

Reason Revealed

She later confirmed that David shot the pup for “snapping” at their two-year-old daughter, Ensley. Many fans were outraged by the incident and several begged MTV to take action.

End of an Era

On May 7, it was announced that MTV “cut ties” with the reality star, although they didn’t reveal if the dog killing ordeal had anything to do with it.

Moving On

“MTV ended its relationship with David Eason over a year ago in February 2018 and has not filmed any new episodes of Teen Mom 2 with him since,” a spokesperson told Us Weekly.

The Latest

“Additionally, we have stopped filming with Jenelle Eason as of April 6, 2019 and have no plans to cover her story in the upcoming season,” the statement continued.

Next Chapter

That evening, an insider told In Touch exclusively that Jenelle “respects” MTV’s decision, noting how she and David will also be going to marriage counseling going forward.
