Despite the concerns of many, Evans stands by Eason. She wished him a happy Father’s Day, thanking him for how “loving” he is to their family in a message on Instagram shared amid ongoing controversy surrounding the Teen Mom 2 alum’s relationship. Evans shared a poolside family photo featuring Eason and three of their four combined children — Eason’s daughter Maryssa, 13, whom he shares with an ex; Evans’ son Jace, 11, whom she had with ex Andrew Lewis; and 4-year-old daughter Ensley, whom Evans and Eason welcomed in 2017. Evans’ son Kaiser, 6, is spending the summer with his father, Nathan Griffith, so he wasn’t photographed with the rest of the family.
“#HappyFathersDay! To see how loving you are to our family is so amazing to me, compared to my bio dad,” Evans captioned the shot. “I didn’t know what it was like having a family until I met yours. You’re not only the step-dad but the one that stepped up. Our love for you is endless and I wouldn’t want it any other way.”
