TEEN Mom star Jenelle Evans has been shamed by fans for buying a $13k sports bike.
The MTV star made the big purchase after giving her 13-year-old son, Jace, a similar gift, weeks prior.

Pirate Ship Power Sports posted a photo of Jenelle on Instagram on one of their bikes on Friday.
“Congratulations Jenelle! We hope you love your new GSXR 750! Welcome to the Pirate Ship Powersports Family!” they captioned the post.
In the photo, the mother-of-three smiled at the camera as she sat on the blue motorcycle.
She wore her hair down, along with a graphic tee, shorts, and sneakers.
Jenelle has not posted on her personal page about the bike yet.
This expensive purchase comes just a few weeks after the Teen Mom star gifted her son with a similar, less expensive bike.
Reddit fans took to the platform to decide on what the name of the bike should be.
They also ripped her for such an expensive purchase.

Many fans offered NSFW names and one fan dissed the motorcycle, saying: “That’s a very ugly bike.”
Another fan thought that she will probably ride the motorcycle twice and then it will sit and not be ridden.
“I guess she’s putting her OnlyFans money to good use,” wrote another fan.
‘NOT SAFE!’
Jenelle was also scolded by fans for purchasing a dangerous bike for her son.
She gave him a $1.8k motorcycle for his 13th birthday last month.
The 30-year-old gave it to him a week before his actual birthday on August 2 and documented the new bike on her Instagram stories.
The Teen Mom 2 alum bought him an Apollo RFZ Z40 dirt bike.
Jenelle captioned the post: “Happy Early Birthday to Jace.”
In the next Story, the shirtless teenager had on his denim jeans and helmet as he hopped onto his bike.
On a long stretch of empty road, Jenelle filmed her son as Jace raced his bike across.
She then took a photo of Jace as he posed with his stepsister Maryssa.
Jace flashed a smile through the helmet as he placed his hand on his waist.
Jenelle captioned the post: “Dirt bike besties.”
Fans were not thrilled with the MTV Mom for giving a “dangerous” and “cheap-looking” present to her son, who was deemed “too young.”
One fan wrote: “This feels like a bad idea. Here Jace, have this cheap dirt bike.”
Another fan added: “She could’ve at least got him a decent used one other than this cheap crap.”
A third fan mentioned: “Bold of her to buy a child a dangerous vehicle.”
A fourth person chimed in and warned: “I actually bought this specific bike last year after looking for months. There is no inventory for used bikes right now.”
MONEY TROUBLES
The purchase comes as a surprise to fans because Jenelle has claimed that she had to join OnlyFans to make money, after being fired from Teen Mom.
Last November, the former reality TV star and her husband, David Eason, owed over $46,000 in taxes from a 2017 tax bill.
The Sun can exclusively reveal the lien remains active as of then, as a clerk for the courthouse confirmed the amount has not been paid off.
The tax debt comes after the mother-of-three was fired from Teen Mom 2 in May 2019 when her husband admitted to shooting and killing the family’s French bulldog for nipping at their daughter, Ensley, 4.
David was fired from the series a year prior for homophobic social media comments.
After being fired, Jenelle turned to selling items on social media to make money.
She also had a podcast, The Jenelle Evans Podcast, and a Youtube page, which give her a source of income.
The Teen Mom alum had a failed clothing line that never came out.
The couple had no choice when their money was running out, so they both made OnlyFans accounts this past May.
Jenelle encouraged her followers on Instagram to subscribe to her page and charges $20 for anyone who does subscribe.
The ex-MTV star included in her bio her decade-long run on the network and noted she’s a “Popular Social Media Influencer on all platforms.”
David joined a few weeks later and promoted it by posting a NSFW photo on his Instagram.
The couple often posts provocative pictures on the site and promotes them on social media.
Along with Jace, Jenelle is also the mother to Kaiser, and Ensley.
