Jace Evans Leaked Texts Between Jenelle and Him

Jenelle Evans told Jace he makes 'things worse' on himself in a leaked text.
As OK! reported, Jace posted private text messages between Jenelle and himself on Tuesday, August 19, via his Instagram.
Alongside the first message, Jace insisted he was “finally putting out” how his “mother really is." In the text, she insisted, “You’re the one saying you’re going to have my custody taken. F— YOU.”
In the next message, Jenelle shockingly accused Jace of lying about her ex-husband David Eason strangling him.
“You make things worse on yourself,” she said.
In the final screenshot, which Jace captioned, “I need to go back to NC she is just really unstable,” he shared an extended version of the first text message. When Jenelle cursed him out, Jace said, “Got it. Thank you.” She threatened him again, saying he wouldn’t “get a d--- thing from me anymore, including a phone.”
Jenelle quickly issued a response to his text on her Instagram Story, writing, “My children are my whole world. And everything I do is to try and protect, guide and love them. Like any parent, I set rules and boundaries. And sometimes that isn’t easy.”
Jenelle's Response to Jace's Leaked Texts

Jenelle Evans said it 'hurt' to see the texts 'shared publicly.'
Jenelle claimed Jace posting their “private texts” was “his reaction to being rightfully disciplined.”
“And while it hurts to see those moments shared publicly, I know it comes from a place of struggle,” she continued. “Navigating Jace’s medical diagnoses has not been easy, but I have never stopped fighting to make sure he has the resources, love and support he needs. I will always stand by him. No matter what challenges come our way. And I will continue to work on being the best mom I can be to all three of my kids.”
Jenelle asked for “empathy, kindness and prayers during this time” for herself, Jace and their family as they “work through this together.”
She returned to her Instagram Story to tell her followers Jace had “recently” been “in trouble with the law these past few months” and “is having a hard time adjusting to the rules set before him.”
“I’ve been trying everything to help him navigate it, but we are butting heads in the process,” she concluded. “Please give us grace at this time. This is hard on all of us.”
After Jenelle’s post, Jace deleted the text messages from his social media.
