Amber Portwood is out of the slammer -- for now.
A day after going behind bars in a Madison County, Ind. jail on a domestic violence arrest, the Teen Mom star, 20, was released after bail was posted for $5,000.
According to TMZ, Portwood pled not guilty on four counts related to several alleged attacks against Gary Shirley, her ex-fiance, in front of Leah, their 2-year-old daughter.
A Madison County official told Us that Portwood is barred from contact with Shirley, 22, until the case is resolved in court.
Portwood has been frank with Us Weekly about her struggles with anxiety, depression and anger management. "I'm trying to put the pieces back together," she told Us.

12How can she have pled not guilty when the show Teen Mom showed her do it a lot? Makes no damn since.... time to grow the hell up!
to vanessa below me are you FREAKING KIDDING ME? gary did everything for her! i think you need to go back to her very first show and watch because he did alot for her and NEVER once hit her back. and if you ask any man around if you hit a man enough he is going to snap and hit back and HE NEVER DID!he worked so she didnt have to. gary should take leah and never look back.
I by no means agree with what Amber has done ... though I do feel that Gary has done enough to Amber to make her snap. A person can only take things for so long! He never cleaned and never wanted to help Amber with anything! Even went and bought video games instead of things for the baby! He was always instigating her in some way or another! I feel that what HE put her through was emotional abuse and that he should be charged also!!!
I believe that if this was turned around and it was Gary doing the abusing he would have been stopped on the show and put in jail. Since it was Amber a female she was allowed to hit over and over and abuse Gary both verbally and mentally and in front of her daughter. She does not deserve to have custody of her daughter and she should be in jail. If I were you Gary I would file charges and for full custody of Leah. Amber is trash and needs to go back to Wal Mart to meet another looser. Oh yeah remember Amber you were fat at one time also and Gary accepted you for who you were why I don't know because you were always a witch. But at least he can loose weight you on the other hand are ugly both on the inside and out and will never change...
how could she be on the show 16 and pregnant if she was 18 when she had her daughter cuz it says that she is 20 and that her daughter is 2 which means that she was 18 when she had her . so being on 16 and pregnant was a big lie.
been abused, it DON'T stop...dude best not go back with this slob...and she should not be allowed to have her daughter. Who's next, her child?
Once an abuser, always an abuser. Her daughter should not be allowed to be with this idiot.
funny, per her local paper she makes $140,000 for a season, which is 6 months on MTV. She listed her occupation as TV personality. Get real people the show, which I applauded for showing how hard it is to have a child and be parent, but this behavior like this doesn't reflect being a parent. It shows a girl that needs to grow up and stop being self centered
I agree with you as well Nathan.
@Nathan i agree with you
I pray she finds God and gets her life straight.
What about contact with her daughter? She needs to stay away from her daughter until she can grow up and be a mother.
