Jenelle Evans Fires Back At Claims David Eason Is Racist And Homophobic: It’s ‘Ridiculous’

“I think that’s just ridiculous because a lot of people even say he’s racist, but his best friend is black,” the 27-year-old told the outlet. “And he also has no problem with gay people.”

David was given the boot from the hit MTV show after he fired off bigoted comments about the LGBTQ community on Twitter last February.

Not only did he claim they were “abominations” but said he would “teach” his children “not to associate with them or be that way.”

He added, “If you lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas.”

Yet this isn’t the first time Jenelle stood up for her man. Back in April, she tried using David’s Ancestry.com analysis to prove why he wasn’t, in fact, a racist.

The results concluded the 30-year-old was considered less than 1% African, though. It was also under a section labeled “low confidence regions,” which doesn’t even show up unless you select “show more.”

Needless to say, people were pissed. “Jesus Christ, Jenelle. You have never sounded more like an ignorant hillbilly,” said a Twitter user. “Having African ancestors does not make him black. There are white people in Africa too moron.” Another took a low blow, saying, “She wants to be like Kail Lowry so bad that she’s trying to lie about her baby daddy’s race?” Ouch!

There was also that time David posted a pic holding a Confederate flag above what appeared to be the Grand Canyon and captioned the snap, “‘Merica.”

Again, the haters came out in droves. “@j_evans1219 how sick that you support a racist man,” one person wrote of his wife, while another added, “My beautiful state… with a moron flying his flag of death, oppression, and pure pestilence! Go back where you came from!”

Jenelle responded to the backlash by rocking a Confederate flag T-shirt. “Get mad,” she wrote on the snap along with a shoulder-shrugging emoji. The tee itself read “SOUTHERN PRIDE.”

But it seems like regardless of what her unpredictable husband does, she will continue to back him up. In October, she tweeted, “I will stand by my husband until the day we die… #SorryNotSorry.”
