Jenelle Evans better put on her “more classier” court heels— and hoof it to the bank!
The Ashley recently released details from the fired Teen Mom star’s divorce settlement with ex-husband David Eason, revealing who got what in the couple’s court battle for their martial assents, including their North Carolina home on The Land. Now, The Ashley can reveal even more details regarding the financial decisions made during the couple’s mediation session earlier this month. The judge officially signed off on the couple’s mediation agreement on August 10.
As The Ashley reported, Jenelle was awarded the house and The Land that it’s on, while David received several parcels of surrounding land that was purchased by the couple. (For a whole list of items given to each party, click here.)
The Ashley can also reveal that Jenelle has been assigned to take on the couple’s giant tax lien!
According to court paperwork obtained by The Ashley, Jenelle is now solely responsible for paying off the tax lien and debt that she and David owed to the North Carolina Department of Revenue, which currently sits at $40,000.
Jenelle is also responsible for paying what’s left on the mortgage for The Land, which is $138,920.
The house and The Land awarded to Jenelle is valued at $388,000, while the plots of land given to David are estimated to be worth $95,000. David was awarded the bulk majority of the couple’s “stuff” (i.e. vehicles, electric toys, tools, etc.), bringing the value of assets he received to just under $200,000. Jenelle’s share (including the value of the home) amounted to just over $439,000.
Because Jenelle’s share is larger than David’s, she is also now required to make monthly payments to him. That cash is to equalize the division to 50/50. North Carolina is not a 50/50 state in regard to divorce asset distribution. Instead, it follows the principle of equitable distribution, which means the judge can award an unequal distribution of marital assets if deemed fair. Jenelle and David settled via mediation, though.
The Ashley can reveal that Jenelle now owes David $33,450.52 in cash, with the payments to be sent to David’s lawyer each month until it is paid up.
“Wife shall pay to Husband a distributional payment in the amount of$33,450.52,” the court docs obtained by The Ashley read. “Wife shall pay Husband within seven (7) months of the execution of this Consent Order. Beginning August 1, 2025, Wife shall pay a monthly installment of no less than $4,778.65 until paid.
Jenelle’s payments are to be sent to the office of David’s lawyer, so it does not appear that they will have to interact to exchange the funds.
Another interesting thing to note is that David was awarded the bulk majority of the Eason gun collection. However, because Jenelle has an active restraining order against him, he is not supposed to have firearms. Oddly, he has been ordered to give up all of the ammunition for the guns.
“Ammunition for all guns awarded to Husband in the Consent Order to be surrendered to the Columbus County Sheriff’s Office,” the court paperwork reads.
