It’s been one month since Jenelle Evans and David Eason regained custody of their kids.
Of course, it’s also been several weeks since Jenelle has had any kind of steady employment, so most of that time has been spent launching business ventures and posting sponsored content so that the Swamp Spouses won’t be forced to get real jobs.
But if you were worried that David and Jenelle are neglecting their kids again, fear not.
At the very least, they’re taking the time to snap pics of them and sell the content to tabloids, which is totally the same as parenting, right?
Yes, Evans took to Instagram today to inform fans that she and David are “BACK!”
(Someone should tell her that she never went anywhere; it was her kids who were relocated.)
She then encouraged her followers to click the link in her bio, but we have the latest on Jenelle’s summer, in case you want to keep up on the latest without helping her get paid for doing nothing.
We’re just trying to do our part:
They’re Baaaack!
Jenelle Evans and David Eason want fans to know they’re on the rebound. They’re still unemployed and widely despised, but we guess that’s their idea of a rebound.
A Growing Family
Jenelle and David don’t even have custody of all their kids (They each have a son that lives with his grandmother.), but hey — it looks like they’re gonna end the summer with three more kids than they started with!
Speaking Too Soon?
Actually, there’s a couple weeks before Labor Day, so we suppose they could still mess this thing up, but for now, it looks as though the Easons will start fall as a semi-complete family
Summertime and the Living’s Swampy
For the last four weeks, at least, Jenelle has had most of her kids at home, and she wants to be praised for it, dammit!
Whatever You Say
She also wants you to know that they immediately put the trauma of being forcibly relocated behind them and had a totally awesome summer.
Wheeling and Dealing
Anyway, that’s the fairy tale the Easons sold to Us Weekly in exchange for a link to the puff piece about Jenelle that appeared on their site today.
The PR Campaign Begins
The article consists entirely of pics from Evans’ Instagram page, and they seem to be curated by David and Jenelle.
Win-Win
So not only did Jenelle get paid to link to the article on her page, she also got to spread some BS about how happy and stable her home life is.
Jenelle Sells
In exchange for the propaganda, Jenelle really had to sell the piece on her page. But she’s been at this for years, so we’re sure it was nothing.
Fashionable Ensley
The folks at Us captioned this photo with a caption about how stylish Ensley’s dress is. Seems like they’re burying the lede, and the real story is about how this child was recently removed from her home after CPS found her living in an unsafe environment.
Fixed It For Ya!
The Easons made sure to include some pics of David playing with Kaiser in their Us piece. This pic was captioned, “The pipe welder played Operation with Kaiser in August.” We’d like to take this opportunity to point out that David is not a pipe welder; he’s just some unemployed dude.
David and Daughter
But hey, we guess unemployment means David has more time to spend with his kid … at least the ones he has custody of.
Ensley Eating
Some fans might wonder why the piece included pics like this one. Our best guess? It’s been widely rumored that Ensley is incapable of feeding herself, and this is Jenelle’s way of setting the record straight.
Homesteading Ensley
The Us album focused primarily on Ensley, Jenelle and David’s only child together. Seems like a missed opportunity to dispel the rumor that David wants nothing to do with Kaiser, but what do we know?
Where’s Maryssa?
Interestingly, David’s daughter Maryssa only appears in one photo — a group shot featuring the entire family.
Strange Development
During the custody battle, Maryssa reportedly testified against David, and he was apparently so upset that he refused to visit her.
Yikes
Sources say the situation got so bad that David declared he no longer wanted to regain custody of his eldest daughter
Strained Relations
With all that drama, you would think the Easons would be focused on rewrite the narrative regarding their relationship with Maryssa.
Truth Teller
Of course, that’s the problem with building your public image on a foundation of lies, as Jenelle has. Some truths simply refuse to stay buried.
