Well, we all knew this was coming.
From the moment that Jenelle Evans and David Eason "broke up" for the 478th time last week, many fans were quick to call out the split as a desperate publicity stunt from two people who are coming to terms with the fact that they have no power over MTV.
To be clear, it's very, very likely that Jenelle and David will break up at some point.
But when it happens, it won't be some quiet police-presence-free affair that's civilly announced on Facebook.
So if Jenelle and David's breakup was a fraud -- which seems to be the consensus among fans -- why would the couple go to such great lengths just for a failed attempt at duping the public?
Join us, as we attempt to answer that question and more:
1. The Easons
Jenelle announced the split on Facebook by changing her relationship status to "separated" and posting the words "single AF."
2. Confirmation
David took things a step further by skipping the "Separated" stage and jumping straight to "Single".
3. Where's David?
At one point, Jenelle posted the question, "Where's my husband?" implying that Eason had fled the property.
4. Cracks Start to Appear
It wasn't long, of course, before fans began to question the veracity of Jenelle's claims.
5. A History of BS
Jenelle has a long history of lying to the public, but if she really staged her breakup with David, it might be her most bizarre stunt to date.
6. Sweeping It Under the Carpet
Jenelle has a flair for the dramatic, and usually, when there's some sort of major development in her life she shouts it from the rooftop.
