While she didn’t specify the post was related to Kyle’s case, many fans assumed she was referencing Friday’s verdict.
One MTV fan posted a screenshot of the since-deleted post on , writing: “Jenelle deleted the ‘not guilty’ post, but here she is reminding us that she still has yet to learn when to quit.”
Others agreed that the post was related to the verdict, as one person wrote: “I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that we all know what her opinions are on the matter. We aren’t idiots.”
While one Reddit user said Jenelle is “so stupid,” another chimed in: “This is why I don't have sympathy for her when she complains that the haters won't leave her alone.
“She knows how controversial this is and she continues with it, then whines when she can't capitalize off her fan base.”
