Teen Mom fans slam Jenelle Evans for her 'awful treatment' of daughter Ensley, 6, in new video

Publish date: 2024-03-05

JENELLE Evans has been called out by Teen Mom fans for her treatment of her daughter, Ensley.

Critics slammed the ex MTV personality after she shared a clip of her six-year-old daughter eating half-cooked eggs- and sporting a filter- on her Instagram Stories.

In the video, Ensley sat at the table with her mom, chowing down on toast and eggs.

While she was chomping away, Jenelle tried to feed her some eggs she picked up with her fork off the plate that they shared; however, Ensley refused her.

The young girl told her straight up, shaking her head: "Don't put any [eggs in her mouth]."

She only stopped the Teen Mom 2 alum's fork so she could personally stuff her mouth with eggs herself, using her toast as a utensil.

Cheering on her daughter for loving a particular egg style, the 31-year-old commented: "Oh yummy, runny eggs" in the video.

The former 16 & Pregnant star captioned the Story with a poll that asked: "Does your child eat runny eggs?"

Though the star intended for the clip to be heartwarming, many fans took offense to her filtering the video of her daughter.

The filter used in the video changed Ensley's eye color to crystal blue and extended her eyelash length.

Some fans thought that the once-was TV personality adding a filter to her children's snaps and videos was "wild."

'CREEPY'

Fans took to a forum on Reddit to express the issue that they found with Jenelle's video and why it was problematic.

"Filter your own pictures, fine. But beauty filters on your children in ever pic/video is just so wild to me," one fan admitted.

Someone else declared: "I will die on this hill. It is not ok to use these types of filters on kids."

A third person ranted: "Stop putting filters on kids. It's creepy."

"I hate seeing kids using filters or being filtered. I think it sets them up for a warped view on... image," a user reacted.

Another fan noted: "It’s so creepy that she’s very specifically using the beauty filters on Ensley..."

WHY THE FILTERS?

Earlier this month, critics ripped Jenelle's controversial parenting decision to add a filter to another video of Ensley's.

In the image shared on Jenelle's Instagram Stories, Ensley sat on a kitchen barstool holding up a spiral notebook and a pencil with the eraser touching her nose.

On the pad of paper, the little girl had written: "Spaghetti, beer."

Jenelle used a heavy filter on the image, giving Ensley the appearance of wearing a full face of makeup.

The mother-of-three captioned her post: "She asked what I wanted," with a laughing emoji.

Fans were appalled by the content, as they took to an online thread to slam Jenelle for asking her little one to get her a beer and for covering her face in filters.

"Between the filtering of her daughter, and the gross pairing of spaghetti and beer she should go to jail immediately... one ripped at the time.

"The real crime here is using a beauty filter on her child. Disgusting," a second agreed.
