The video consisted of Jenelle taking fans through the process of her sons Jace and Kaiser, 8, getting braces.
The video ended with Jenelle saying, “Hopefully, this fixes Jace’s overbite and Kaiser’s underbite.
“Teen Mom” fans could not believe how grown-up Jenelle’s eldest son Jace looked in the video.
“Jace looks so grown up!! 🥺,” one TikTok user commented.
“Look at Jace! So grown,” a second user wrote.
“Jace has some dirt on his top lip,” a third user commented, referring to Jace’s lip hair. “How did this happen?! He’s just a baby.”
“Jace should not have facial hair growing!😭,” a fourth user wrote.
Who Is Jace’s Dad?
Fans were first introduced to Jenelle Evans in 2010 on the hit MTV show “16 and Pregnant.” At the time of filming, Jenelle was pregnant with Jace and dating high school boyfriend Andrew Lewis. After Jace’s birth, Andrew said he would be present in his son’s life but the former model has been mostly absent since 2009.
In 2019, Jenelle got a blast from the past when a “Teen Mom 2” producer approached her with news that her ex-boyfriend Andrew Lewis had reached out to production.
“I have to tell you something,” a producer told Jenelle, People reported. “Andrew has been getting in contact with me. He wants to see Jace.”
Jenelle was reluctant to allow Andrew back in her son’s life.
“I do feel bad because that’s Jace’s dad. But I know how he is, and I don’t want him to disappoint my son,” she said during the episode, People reported.
Later in the episode, Jenelle and her mother got on a phone call with Andrew where they expressed their reservations about the situation.
“You’re hitting me out of the blue, nine years have gone by and all of a sudden you’re contacting me,” Barbara told Andrew, People reported. “I know in the past you’ve had a drinking problem. I gotta see you. Maybe I can come to New York and meet you alone and make sure that everything’s OK and I feel that Jace is safe around you.”
Barbara did end up going to New York to meet Andrew but she was stood up by the former model.
The “Teen Mom” grandma called Andrew after he was a no show to let him know he lost his chance.
“This will be the last time I ever make an attempt to come see you again,” she said. “To stand me up is just wrong.”
