Andrew first appeared on television in 16 And Pregnant. He was in a relationship with his then-girlfriend, Jenelle Evans. Andrew and Jenelle had a son, Jace, but they soon broke up. Both Jenelle and Andrew were also a part of Teen Mom. However, Andrew hadn’t met Jace since the latter was a baby. But now, not only is Andrew a part of Jace’s CPS case, but he also met Jace for the first time in 14 years.
Teen Mom: Andrew Meets His Son For The First Time In More Than A Dozen Years
Andrew Lewis starred on 16 And Pregnant when he was dating Jenelle. The pair had a son, Jace. However, Jace had never met his dad. Jace had initially been in Jenelle’s custody, and after that, the Teen Mom star’s mother, Barbara, got his custody. But even then, Jace ran away from his grandmother’s house three times. And during his last attempt, cops found evidence of abuse on his body. Since then, Jace has been fighting a CPS case against his step-father David Eason.
Jace’s case also included Jenelle and Barbara. But the court surprised Jenelle and the fans when it included Jace’s biological father, Andrew. Sources revealed that he was brought to the December hearing through video chat. And in a newer update, Andrew even met Jace for the first time.
According to TheAshley, Andrew met Jace for the first time since the latter was a baby. One inside source revealed that the court had brought Andrew in because he was Jace’s biological father. They also added that he “could potentially have a claim for (Jace’s) custody.” Andrew has also been talking regularly with Jace for the past months.
The source had revealed that initially, Andrew had become lax with his interactions with Jace. However, he is now trying to be more involved in his son’s life and “has made real effort(s).” Andrew might not get Jace’s custody, but he can have a say in who does. For now, Jace and Andrew were very happy with their first meeting. Reports revealed that it happened in court last week. The court has also permitted Andrew to visit and call Jace more often.
Teen Mom: Andrew Is Also One Of The Family Members In Jace’s CPS Case
Teen Mom star Jenelle Evans’s husband, David Eason, had allegedly abused her son Jace. While retrieving Jace from his third runaway attempt, the cops found abuse marks on the teen’s body. The marks and other evidence pointed towards David, and a CPS and child abuse case has been going on. David’s charges include assault by strangulation now, and the case has gone to a higher court.
Jace is in CPS custody. Along with Jenelle and David, Jenelle’s mother, Barbara, is also a part of the case. The court brought Jace’s biological father, Andrew, in as well. The latter recently met his son for the first time in 14 years. Before that, he had sat in an interview with TheSun, requesting Jenelle and Barbara to let him meet Jace. Andrew also wanted his family to be able to meet his son. Keep coming back to TV Season & Spoilers for all the newest Teen Mom tea.
