Teen Mom 2’s Jenelle Evans’ baby daddy Andrew Lewis abused her, says he’s been sober for two years
Tonight’s Teen Mom 2 Season 3 Check-Up with Dr. Drew was pretty intense, and kind of confusing as per usual because of all the drama that has happened since (at the time this was taped, Jenelle was with Gary Head, the first time.) Dr. Drew got to talk with Jenelle Evans’ baby’s daddy Andrew Lewis, who has returned to their lives after a few years of absence. When Andrew, first came out, he noted, “I just remember the good times, not the bad times.”
For a while, Jenelle questioned whether Andrew was really Jace’s father because she had hooked up with another guy at the time. Teen Mom 2 cameras were with them when they sought paternity results, and much to Jenelle’s mom’s dismay, Andrew IS the father of Jace.
On the taped reunion, Jenelle said she didn’t want Jace around Andrew because he had hit her, and she was afraid he might do the same to Jace. She also expressed concerns that he might hurt Jace while he was drunk. Andrew hadn’t seen Jace since he was two months old.
Andrew doesn’t deny that he hit Jenelle, in fact he responds to her accusation with “I don’t care.”
Jenelle: “I hold a grudge agaist him because he abused me.”
Andrew: “That doesn’t matter. I’m the father of Jace, I want to see him. it doesn’t matter. Stop keeping me away from him.”
Jenelle: “How do I know you’re not gonna hit him.’
Andrew: “I couldn’t do nothin like that, I’m not stupid.”
Jenelle: “But you hit me.”
Andrew: “I don’t care. Yeah that was the past, I already done that, that’s over with. I’m not gonna do anything like that It’s my child, it’s my son. I wanna see Jace, I wanna be a part of his life. I’m gonna step up and do it, it doesn’t matter with that Koofer Kid.”
Jenelle: “But you don’t care if I get hit, but what if you stumble over Jace when you’re drunk.”
Andrew: “I dont’ even drink. Last time I drank was two and a half years ago.”
Jenelle: “I didn’t know that. You took off.”
Andrew: “I didn’t take off. I didn’t take off at all. She just stopped talking to me.”
Jenelle: “You took off to Florida.”
Dr. Drew: “If you took off to Florida, you took off to Florida.”
Andrew: “Yeah, I took off to Florida.”
