Jenelle Evans and David Eason remain at odds after the former "Teen Mom" star claims she left her husband and took the kids. As the holidays are approaching and family activities would normally fill David's life, he is getting emotional on not having his daughter or wife at home. The reality star turned blacksmith took to Instagram this week and shared a video of their 2-year-old daughter, Ensley Eason. The video appears to be from a past hunting trip David took his daughter on. Listening to the noises around her, Ensley gets excited when she tells her dad that she has spotted a deer.

David captioned the video and its clear he's having a hard time with the collateral damage of not seeing his daughter after splitting from Jenelle.

"Deer Daddy, I see a deer, deer!"
I miss my baby more than she could ever imagine and I know she misses me too! I would give anything to take her hunting again right now!"

It was a shock to everyone that after years of sticking by David's side, even through his most controversial times, Jenelle made the decision to leave and allegedly file for divorce. In her message to fans, the former "Teen Mom" strongly implied David's violent behavior was to blame.

In her break-up announcement, Jenelle told fans that she had taken the kids away from David. The move comes on the heels of a long custody fight the two went through after their children were taken away by a judge.

"The kids and I have moved away from David. Nobody gets into a marriage expecting it to end but I know thats what is best for me, and for my kid."

"Today I've filed papers to start that process. I appreciate the support from everybody who has asked how I am. Me and the kids are doing great. We need some time to be together. But you'll hear from us again soon."

Jenelle admitted that much of her life has taken place in front of the cameras, and it's had lasting effects on her behavior. She claims to be taking a break from everything to focus on her kids.

"I've mostly kept off social media the past few days because I've been focused on making some big life decisions. I've life muy life on camera since I was 17 years old. And alot of it hasn't been pretty. But it's been my life."

"Like anyone else I want what's best for my kids and I want to be happy. With time away from Teen Mom I've started to look at my life differently and I know I need to make changes. I'm starting that now."

The big question everyone is asking is whether the split between the two is for real. It's no secret Jenelle has wanted to get back on "Teen Mom" ever since she was cast out of the MTV family, but that hadn't seemed possible while she was still affiliated with David. Now that she's broken things off, some think Jenelle will make a play to get back on "Teen Mom," and hope they can cover her story of redemption. MTV has not commented on whether she would still have a future and made it pretty clear at the time that the professional relationship was over.
