Following Hernandez's death, Jenkins made a deliberate decision to pull Avielle back from the glare of national media. The family relocated to Rhode Island, where Jenkins sought to build an ordinary routine grounded in school, community sports, and childhood friendships. In 2018, Jenkins welcomed a second daughter, Giselle Guilmette, with partner Dino Guilmette, giving Avielle a younger sister and a broader family support system.
On social media, Jenkins has occasionally shared snippets of Avielle’s achievements, particularly in competitive cheerleading and youth athletics. Observers frequently note the striking physical resemblance between Avielle and her father, from her facial features to her athletic build. In March 2025, Jenkins and Avielle shared a rare family tribute online, marking what would have been milestones in their shared journey with a quiet acknowledgment of resilience rather than sensationalism.
Public sentiment around Avielle has remained fiercely protective. On digital platforms like Reddit and TikTok, where true-crime documentaries frequently rehash the Hernandez case, users routinely push back against intrusive commentary regarding his daughter. The prevailing public consensus treats Avielle as a victim of circumstances far beyond her control, someone who deserves anonymity as she navigates adolescence.
