JENELLE Evans finally admitted she is back together with husband David Eason and even claimed he “never abused her” despite filing a restraining order against him.
The former star revealed in a YouTube Q&A on Saturday that she and David “are deciding to work this out right now.”
, 28, separated from , 31, in October 2019 and moved with their daughter Ensley, 3, and her son Kaiser, 5, from a previous relationship, to Nashville, Tennessee.
In January, Jenelle dropped the restraining order request and was spotted on dates with David in Nashville.
She explained in the video: “Me and him are deciding to work this out right now. We’re taking it slowly."
She explained their relationship is “going pretty smoothly.”
Jenelle continued: “A lot of things have changed. Me and him have decided to try to remain positive no matter what. If we have an issue we need to talk it out.
“We would have disagreements that turned into big arguments... I decided to go back home and work out my relationship. It’s for my family.”
She continued that she was the one who reached out to him first.
Jenelle revealed: “I said, ‘I’m sorry… I think we ended things abruptly. I think we need to try to work things out for our family and marriage’ and he said, ‘Okay.’ He did come visit 2-3 times.
"I told him things have got to change. We cannot be unhappy. We need to start communicating. We have to sort it out.
"Things got so bad into our relationship where I was so unhappy that I needed to come out of it. The only way to come out of it was to distance myself. I realized that’s not what I wanted and I wanted to work out my marriage. I didn’t want another failed marriage.”
In Jenelle’s restraining order, she accused him of being “abusive," “violent” and feared he would “harm” her children.
She wrote in the protective order request: “Because of his recent threats, his history of violence, his erratic behavior and his large stockpile of weapons, I am scared for my life and my children’s well-being.”
But in the video she claimed: “David has never abused the children. He’s never abused me. We’re all happy here as a family.”
Jenelle, who is also mom to son Jace, 10, then explained how she is permanently living in North Carolina now and is no longer renting an apartment in Tennessee.
She said: “I reason I came back to NC is because I cannot afford a rent and mortgage. I need to choose one or the other. And I have a house here that I own. I don’t own the apartment in Tennessee.
“All the kids have their own space here. We have 11 acres of land to play on. Kaiser and Ensley missed the animals. There is no point in going back to Tennessee unless something changes like selling this house.”
She also shot down pregnancy rumors and admitted she is “feeling pretty blessed.”
The reality star said: “I realized when I was gone what I was missing. I wanted to come back home and I did. I’m happy I did.”
