Eason Family To The Rescue
“David’s family is calling to speak with a CPS worker today to let them know who his mother and two sisters are,” a source close to the Eason family told RadarOnline.com.
Good Call
The insider continued, “If something happens where they try to take Ensley and Maryssa, they want CPS to have family contacts on hand so the girls won’t end up in foster care.”
Tough Times
The family hopes the girls will be in their care so they could “make them happy” amid the difficult situation.
Everything Ok?
“It is very sad and unfair to them,” the source said.
Jenelle’s Hell
A source previously told RadarOnline.com, “CPS is looking to take Maryssa and Ensley away too.” Maryssa is David's daughter from a previous marriage.
Save Kaiser
This comes after multiple sources confirmed to RadarOnline.com that Kaiser, 4, who Evans shares with ex-fiancé Nathan Griffith, was removed from her care on Friday, May 10. The Ashley’s Reality Roundup broke the story.
Grandma’s Care
“Nathan’s mother Doris got a call from CPS and they told her they had done the investigation and she should go get Kaiser out of daycare,” a source told RadarOnline.com.
Parents’ Nightmare

The couple rushed to Ensley’s daycare to pick her up as soon as they heard. “CPS wanted to talk to Jenelle and David, but they both refused to talk to them,” the source said. “David cussed CPS out.”
Losing Jace Too
RadarOnline.com also reported that CPS visited Jenelle’s son Jace. Jenelle’s mother Barbara has full custody of the 9-year-old. “They told Barbara she needs to keep him home right now,” the source said.
Sad Mother’s Day
Although Jenelle was supposed to have him for Mother’s Day weekend, Barbara kept him at her home. “Jenelle was told that Jace doesn’t want to go over there at all,” the source said. “She was told Jace is terrified of David because David is escalating.”
Disturbing Shooting
The CPS investigations come after David admitted to shooting and killing her dog Nugget. David defended his actions, claiming the pooch bit Ensley in the face. In a now-deleted video posted on David’s Instagram, the tiny pooch could be seen harmlessly nipping their daughter.
She’s Out!
The shooting resulted in the firing of Jenelle from Teen Mom 2. “MTV ended its relationship with David Eason over a year ago in February 2018 and has not filmed any new episodes of Teen Mom 2 with him since," the statement read. "Additionally, we have stopped filming with Jenelle Eason as of April 6, 2019 and have no plans to cover her story in the upcoming season.”
Not Doing Well
Jenelle is “a mess” over the situation. “It’s rough right now,” a source told RadarOnline.com. “ CPS went behind her back. She’s working with her CPS lawyer to get him back.”
Dad’s Ready For War!
The latest development could help Nathan’s custody trial against Jenelle. Nathan, who currently has supervised visits with Kaiser, is fighting for full custody with his mom as an intervener. Nathan and Doris have accused David of abusing Kaiser.
Court Is Coming Up
They are expected to face off in court at the end of May.
