All hope is lost for Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans and her mom Barbara. Evans recently discussed their complicated relationship and why she thinks they can never recover.

After years of a custody battle of Jenelle’s oldest son Jace, Jenelle and Barabara finally came to an agreement which gave Barbara primary custody but Jenelle scheduled visitation rights. Babs has had custody of Jace since 2010, but this is the first time the two have a formal visitation schedule set in place. Evans told E! News,

“We are in the same situation. You know we went to court about Jace and I got a visitation schedule set, but she’s still kind of bent out of shape because I still have resentment towards her for still keeping my son and we still butt heads.”

And she doesn’t foresee their relationship getting any better in the future.

“I think our relationship’s lost. I don’t ever think there’s really coming back at any point in time.”

Jenelle currently has primary custody of her other two children, 3-year-old son Kaiser and 6-mos old daughter Ensley. All three children have different fathers.

The new season of Teen Mom 2 premieres July 17 and Jenelle’s book Read Between the Lines comes out July 25. The book details Jenelle’s life as a teen mom in the public eye.
