‘Teen Mom 2’ Star Jenelle Evans Sets Record Straight About Pregnancy Timeline
She's setting the record straight!
Jenelle Evans and her boyfriend David Eason just welcomed their first child together — a baby girl named Ensley Jolie — earlier today, but it didn’t stop her from silencing her haters who claimed she was lying about being pregnant. The Teen Mom 2 star took to Twitter just hours before her daughter’s birth to lay out her pregnancy timeline.

During last night’s episode, MTV producers confronted Jenelle, 25, and David about a conversation recorded on a camera planted in their car, which made it seem like they had just gotten the news that they were expecting. Her producer asked her flat-out if she was pregnant, and Jenelle said no.
Then they showed a clip of her mom Barbara Evans reading a police report about the car accident she was involved in last summer, which revealed that she was about 10 weeks pregnant at the time of the crash — but she denied reports about her pregnancy until she announced that she was expecting baby No. 3 last August.
In a series of tweets, she explained that she first found out she was pregnant in April 2016, which was when the car scene with David was filmed.

“A week or few days later we flew out to the reunion, end of April 2016,” she continued. “At that time I had to go see a doctor because I thought it was the time of my month. Saw the OBGYN The Doctors show connected me with in LA. He conducted an ultrasound and told me I was not pregnant.”
This confirms that she did have a miscarriage prior to conceiving little Ensley. Jenelle found out that she was pregnant for a second time last June, one month before her car accident report was leaked. She explained why she didn’t want to tell anybody about her third pregnancy — especially her mother.
“After finding out of course I kept it a secret [because] everyone claimed I was already lying,” she wrote, “but as for my mom — she tells everyone everything.”
