Jenelle Evans’ Son Jace Was Reported Missing 3 Times: His Runaway and CPS Timeline Amid Reunion
Teen Mom 2 alum Jenelle Evans’ son, Jace Evans, made headlines for running away three times within the span of two months. The teen was first reported missing in mid-August 2023 after he was last seen leaving school, but he was found hours later. Jace went missing for the second time about two weeks later and was found at a gas station near the family’s North Carolina home.
Jace’s third runaway attempt was reported on September 28 after the teen snuck out of a window. Jenelle revealed in a video two days later that he was found.
In Touch exclusively confirmed on October 2 that Jace was checked into the hospital, where he received a mental health evaluation, and that CPS got involved in the case.
