Teen Mom star Jenelle Evans is reported to be pregnant with her second baby.

It will be the 21-year-old and her boyfriend Nathan Griffith's first child together.

'Jenelle is definitely pregnant,' a source told In Touch Weekly while another source added that the reality star 'has only told her closest friends and a few people in her family.'

However, despite Wednesday's happy news, Evans still does not have custody of her four-year-old son Jace with her mother Barbara currently in charge of the youngster.

'Jenelle is obviously going to go through with the pregnancy, but is scared of all the backlash from haters who still judge her for not having custody of her son, Jace,' the source continued.

But the new pregnancy is unlikely to help Jenelle regain custody, says a source.

'It sucks,' said the insider. 'I know she wants to prove she's doing better, but having another baby without custody of her first isn't helping.'

The couple are said to have planned the baby, with E! reporting that she told friends over the summer that they were 'trying.'

It is not yet clear how far Jenelle is in her pregnancy, but E! claims MTV, who airs Teen Mom 2, has already filmed her doctor's appointment for season five.

Griffith also has a daughter, Emery, 2, from a previous relationship.

To make this situation even more interesting, Evans is still legally married to Courtland Rogers, who is currently in jail, and E! News learns that there are "no plans to divorce."
