Jenelle was one of the first ‘Teen Mom’ girls ever when she joined the franchise back in 2009. It didn’t take long until she became a nationwide sensation and accrued tons of fans.

She was later cast for MTV’s ‘Teen Mom 2’ as well which only helped her get more famous. But despite her fame, Jenelle wasn’t able to hold her ground after a family incident invoked her getting fired from the series.

This was a few years back, and she hasn’t filmed for the show since.

Jenelle’s new surgery

The ex ‘Teen Mom 2’ star seems to be very open to sharing whatever is happening in her life, even if it’s something serious.

Jenelle recently announced that she had a surgery and fans flocked to show support. “Going alone to get a procedure done for my esophagus today and I’m really scared,” she wrote beforehand.

But fans also noticed that she appears to enjoy medical-related attention as well.

“As someone who has been sick previously for long periods of time, it completely baffles me why someone would WANT to be sick,” one fan commented.

“The only time she looks happy is when she’s at the doctor,” another fan wrote.
