Prior to her current marriage, Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans was briefly married to a man named Courtland Rogers. According to Us Weekly , reports have surfaced that Jenelle’s ex-husband was recently arrested.
The outlet revealed that the New Hanover County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the arrest, which reportedly took place on Saturday, January 18 in North Carolina. The report states that Courtland was booked on “one count of felony larceny” as well as a “felony possession of a schedule I drug.”
Along with the felonies, Courtland also faces two misdemeanors, including “possession of a schedule II drug” as well as “possession of drug paraphernalia.” According to the report, Courtland remains behind bars as of Tuesday morning — where he is being held on a $15,000 bond.
This is not the first time that Courtland Rogers has been arrested. As previously reported by The Inquisitr , Courtland was arrested last July on a felony probation violation.
The general public may not be aware of Jenelle’s first marriage, as the short-lived couple tied the knot while Teen Mom 2 was off the air. Jenelle announced her engagement to Courtland back in November 2012. At the time, the couple had been together for less than three months before getting engaged. The two quickly got married in December 2012, just two weeks after announcing their shocking engagement.
However, the couple separated a few months later in April 2013. Unfortunately, Jenelle had to be separated from Courtland for a year before a divorce could be granted. Their divorce was finalized in June 2014, shortly before Jenelle welcomed her second child — son Kaiser with then-boyfriend Nathan Griffith.
While Courtland was Jenelle’s first husband, their brief relationship was not her final marriage. After splitting from Nathan Griffith, the reality star moved on with David Eason. The two married in September 2017, and David appeared briefly on Teen Mom 2 alongside Jenelle.
In October 2019, Jenelle announced that she had left David Eason and would be seeking a divorce after two years of marriage.
She moved from her home in North Carolina to Nashville, Tennessee. Upon moving, Jenelle sought a restraining order against her estranged husband. However, the order was reportedly dropped voluntarily earlier this month. Following the protective order being dropped, Jenelle was spotted in public with David and their 2-year-old daughter in Nashville.
However, many reports suggest that Jenelle is not getting back together with her second ex-husband. Instead, the two are reportedly trying to co-parent for their daughter.
