More baby daddy drama! After eight long years of absence, it looks like Jenelle Evans's ex might want back into Jace's life. Andrew Lewis recently admitted that he wished he had a relationship with their son, despite having only seen him once since his 2009 birth.

Jenelle's first baby daddy (she also has Kaiser, 3, with ex Nathan Griffith, and Ensley, 10 months, with husband David Eason) lamented that he hasn't had a relationship with his son, and that he would like to finally establish one.

Andrew talked about how when Jace was born, he wasn't sure if Jace was really his or not.

“[Jenelle] waited until the last minute to say Jace may not be your son,” he shared. “I was scared when they called for the paternity test." As longtime fans of the show know, a DNA test revealed that Andrew was indeed Jace's biological father. That doesn't mean he was ready to be a dad, though.

Andrew moved away from North Carolina to New York when Jenelle was pregnant, but apparently may want a relationship with him now, more than eight years later.-placeholder

Andrew moved away from North Carolina to New York when Jenelle was pregnant, but apparently may want a relationship with him now, more than eight years later.

Andrew has reportedly only seen his son once since he was born, although he has been paying child support to Barbara Evans for the last three years. Jenelle gave guardianship of her son to her mom when he was an infant and she was more interested in partying than parenting. She's fought to regain custody for years, but a judge ultimately decided last spring that Babs would retain custody, while Jenelle was granted visitation rights.

It seems as though Andrew has changed his tune on being a father to at least some degree. He said on the show, "I would love to have a relationship with Jace. I dream about him every day. I think about him every day. The reason I don’t Google him or look him up is because it’ll hurt me."

It's a prospect that Jenelle is completely against.-placeholder

Jenelle was not impressed by Andrew's apparent and sudden dedication to being in Jace's life. She said, "I’d rather Andrew be completely out of Jace’s life instead of being in and out. Maybe he should just stay out."

As much as it's important for kids to have a relationship with their parents, until Andrew proves himself consistent, it's probably a good idea not to introduce him into Jace's life. Here's to hoping he's serious about getting to know his son, and willing to put in the work to do it.
