Jace, the 17-year-old son of Teen Mom alum Jenelle Evans, is back on Instagram. He posted a mini vlog this week, and he looks happy in it.
It is a rare update. Jace entered a mental health facility in February, and fans have not seen much of him since.
A Normal Day on Camera
The video shows everyday moments. Jace films his grandmother, Barbara Evans, picking up after the family dog. He rides an electric scooter with a friend, and the two take a tumble and laugh about it. He also takes a car ride with more friends.
Jace smiles and laughs through most of the clip. He kept the caption short. “hope u guys are having a good day,” he wrote.
There is nothing dramatic here, and that is the point. After a hard year, a video of a teenager goofing around with friends is a quiet and welcome change.
What Led to Treatment
A troubling incident at Barbara’s home in North Carolina in February led to a 911 call. Jace entered a treatment facility afterward. Reports say he left treatment over the summer and moved back in with his grandmother.
We are keeping the details out of this story on purpose. Jace is a minor, and the focus here is on how he is doing now.
