Teen Mom's Jenelle Evans Is Pregnant Again. Let's Look Back at Her Year of Bad Choices.
LatestTeen Mom 2‘s Jenelle Evans is thrilled to be pregnant again, posting a photo to her Instagram account of her growing baby bump and tweeting her amusement at being able to breastfeed with implants. The rest of the world is not nearly as happy for the reality star—who has yet to regain custody of her three-year-old son Jace—mostly because she seems absolutely incapable of making a single good decision. Here, we present 12 months worth of bad ideas—involving multiple arrests, nude photo scandals, bad tattoos, Twitter wars, and marriage engagements—that have led up to this pregnancy.
January 2012
Jenelle, then 20 and on probation from prior arrests, started off 2012 by getting arrested twice in one week, first or harassing a former roommate and again for violating a domestic violence protective order. She’s smiling in both mugshots. Later that month, she shows up in court in prison stripes and shackles on her feet, facing five charges (two no contact orders, communicating threats and harassing phone calls, and domestic violence protection order violation).

She gets back with Gary and one week later they are engaged. Two weeks after that she calls off the engagement and accuses him of breaking into her home and stealing jewelry.
June 2012
Gary and Jenelle reunite briefly and are both arrested (her fourth arrest of the year, thus far). He was charged with “assault on a female, possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of a controlled substance” while she was charged with “simple assault, possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of a controlled substance.”
July 2012
Having reunited with Kieffer, she brings him to her court date, where she will face-off with Gary. She recounted the events of the day on social media:
