Jenelle Evans Back In Rehab For Heroin Abuse
Feb. 26 2013, Published 6:50 a.m. ET
Troubled Teen Mom star Jenelle Evans has checked into rehab for the second time, and RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that she’s trying to get help for her heroin abuse problem.
The 21-year-old MTV star is “seeking treatment for her drug addiction issues and related stresses stemming from her tumultuous last few months,” a source close to Jenelle told RadarOnline.com.
“Everyone has been worried about Jenelle doing heroin, even though she was denying that for a long time.”
Since being involuntarily committed to a rehab center for 72 hours in November, Jenelle has been on a downward spiral, and she volunteered to go into a treatment center this time.
“Jenelle has been through the wringer lately,” the source said. “She got married to a guy that she now thinks is a disaster, got pregnant, had a miscarriage and is basically falling apart.”
Her estranged husband Courtland Rogers accused her recently of doing drugs, but Jenelle, who was in a California rehab in 2011, previously told RadarOnline.com that she’s been clean since she found out she was pregnant.
However, the source said she wasn’t telling the truth.
“She has been doing drugs, and she really wants to stop and live a clean life for herself and for her son Jace,” her friend told RadarOnline.com.
Jenelle’s mother Barbara Evans still has custody of Jace.
Season 4 of Teen Mom 2 airs on MTV Monday nights.
