LAS VEGAS, NEVADA: 'Teen Mom' star Jenelle Evans recently shared on social media that she injured her leg and was hospitalized. She has been using a wheelchair for about a week. However, she has faced backlash online for reportedly leaving her kids behind to party despite her injury.

Jenelle recently shared a series of videos partying in Las Vegas with her friends on Instagram Stories. However, concerns arose among viewers as Jenelle's alleged manager and new beau, August Keen, lives in Los Angeles. This led to worries that her children might have been left alone in an unfamiliar house.

Jenelle's children’s father, David Eason has been uninvolved in parenting, and she also has no contact with her mother. Meanwhile, on Reddit, one user noted, "Tori wheeling Jenelle around Vegas. Kids nowhere to be seen, as usual. They seem so proud of themselves."

Another user added, "All while her 3 kids are alone in a strange house in Vegas, Jace is 14 and has mental health issues and she lets him smoke w**d. Talk about a horribly dangerous situation waiting to happen. Worst "mother" ever." One critic said, "Literally where are her f*****g kids."

Another user said, "She’s in Vegas rn and I would hope the kids are with her at least. But wouldn’t surprise me. She left then home when she went to Miami." One user wrote, "Poor kids. Jace probably tells Kaiser “hey bro I’m gonna go out and hang with my friends, you’re old enough I trust you don’t tell mom” lmao."

How many kids does Jenelle Evans have?

'Teen Mom' star Jenelle Evans shares three kids with her ex-boyfriends. She was a high school senior when she was expecting her first child, son Jace Vahn, who is now 14 years old. She later welcomed Kaiser Orion, 10, with her ex-boyfriend Nathan Griffith, and daughter Ensley Jolie, 7, with her estranged husband, David Eason, from whom she legally separated in March 2024.

However, Jenelle recently reflected on the idea of having more children. She shared on social media, "I would be open to it with the right person but my tubes are tied so that would be a lot of money for IVF." Meanwhile, she mentioned that a third marriage is not currently in her plans.

'Teen Mom' star Jenelle Evans's new beau joins MTV show

'Teen Mom' star Jenelle Evans has recently sparked romance rumors with her alleged new beau, August Keen. In a previous episode of 'Teen Mom: The Next Chapter', she told Briana DeJesus that August was the only man David Eason allowed her to speak to while they were together.

Jenelle was in the midst of her divorce from David and sought a fresh start away from North Carolina. August made his MTV debut by supporting Jenelle during this challenging period. However, while Jenelle admitted on the show that she and August Keen had flirted, she later clarified on social media that they are just good friends.
