The son of reality TV personality Jenelle Evans, Jace Evans, was reported as a runaway but has since been found unharmed. Following Jenelle’s regaining of custody of her eldest son, the local authorities issued a report stating that Jace had gone missing, and efforts were made to locate him. Jenelle responded to the situation, asserting that their family was experiencing challenges that are common while raising children.
According to local officials, Jace Evans, the 14-year-old son of Jenelle Evans, ran away from home. This occurrence follows his mother’s regaining of custody just a few months ago.
As reported by TMZ, Jace did not return home to his Teen Mom star mother after school. Jenelle provided a statement, addressing the situation as a normal occurrence of teenage behavior.
Details regarding the circumstances that led to Jace being declared a runaway by the Brunswick Co. Sheriff’s Department remain unclear. A public alert was issued to locate Jace, and he was found safely at 6:11 pm EST.
The initial report indicated that Jace was last seen leaving school at 2:45 pm on August 15th. He was wearing a gray sweatshirt bearing the words “Classical Charter Schools of America.”
Jenelle expressed that these challenges are part of the common experiences families go through. She emphasized that dealing with teenage behavior and rebellion is not unusual.
“This has absolutely nothing to do with my situation with David, we do not argue in front of our children or fight in front of our kids,” Jenelle clarified.
Despite her statement, the situation seemed to be at odds with the ongoing public turmoil between Jenelle and her husband, David Eason.
While the context of the situation appears to be distinct from the online drama involving Jenelle and David, the incident underscores the complexities of their situation.
Jenelle’s 14-year-old son, Jace, had been living with his grandmother before Jenelle won full custody earlier this year. Jenelle had been vocal about her desire for her son to live with her, stating that if there were no issues, he should be with her.
