Teen Mom alum Ryan Edwards’ wife, Amanda Conner, was reportedly arrested and booked on a DUI charge.
TMZ was first to report the news on Sunday, May 24, citing a spokesperson for the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office Jail in Tennessee who confirmed that Conner was taken into custody. The report also claimed that she was charged with child abuse/neglect for allegedly driving under the influencer with a baby in the car. Conner was also charged for allegedly driving on the wrong side of the road.
Her bond was set at $16,000. It’s unclear if she had posted bond. However, TMZ reported that if and when she’s released, Conner will not be allowed to contact the alleged child victim. Her court hearing is set for June 3.
According to dispatch audio obtained by TMZ, a husband allegedly called the police on his wife because he was concerned that she had been using narcotics. The audio alleged that the wife would not submit to a drug test and had left with their baby. (The dispatcher did not share Edwards and Conner’s names during the call.)

‘Teen Mom’ Star Ryan Edwards and Amanda Conner’s Relationship Timeline
Earlier this year, Edwards and Conner faced a barrage of split rumors, which they denied.
“Just because I make a post doesn’t mean there’s anything going on with me and Ryan or me and anyone else,” Conner shared via Instagram in January. “I also have a life, and I also have other family. Everything I post does not directly mean it’s about me and Ryan or whatever.”
Her response came after a cryptic Instagram post in which Conner wrote that she was “OK” but “more aware.” It’s unclear exactly what she was referring to.
Conner told followers that she and Edwards were “offended” after a journalist reached out for comment in response to her post.
“Stop being messy and stop taking everything out of context that I post, he posts or anybody for future reference,” Conner wrote at the time. “Me and Ryan are good other than the every day little bickering because he don’t pick his clothes up from the floor or he won’t wash the sink out after he brushes his teeth. Other than that, we’re good.”
