Teen Mom’s Amanda Conner continues to face the consequences of her recent DUI arrest.
According to online court records viewed by Us, a judge in Chattanooga, Tennessee, ordered Conner, 35, to submit to weekly drug screenings. (She was previously ordered to only undergo random drug testing.)
Conner’s next court date is scheduled for October 21. The Ashley’s Reality Roundup was first to report the news.
Although Conner has not publicly commented on the judge’s ruling, she posted a TikTok from the courthouse on Friday, August, 7.
“Alright, just left the courthouse,” she said in a video. “On my way to see my PO [probation officer] and then on my way to work.”
Diddy’s song “Can’t Nobody Hold Me Down” later played in the background as she danced in her car.
Back in May, Ryan Edwards’ wife was arrested and booked on a DUI charge. At the time, Conner was also charged with child abuse/neglect for allegedly driving under the influence with a baby in the car.
“I relapsed. After three years of me busting my ass and getting my life together, I relapsed. I think I got too comfortable, let my guard down and it happened,” Conner shared via TikTok on May 27 while addressing her arrest. “I do know addiction does not care how long you’ve been clean, how much you’ve built, it doesn’t care how many people believed in you, it doesn’t care about none of that.”
She later apologized for disappointing the people who “believed” in her.
“You all ride so hard for me and I appreciate the f*** out of that,” she continued. “I have let you all down and I’ve let my family down. Just saying that out loud, just letting it be known, it’s just so uncomfortable, it’s shameful, I’m disappointed, I feel guilty, scared. I’m not perfect. I’ve never come to be perfect.”
In a separate TikTok video from Thursday, August 6, Conner shared a positive update on her reality as she continues to focus on her sobriety.
“I just wanted to give you guys an update on how life has been going for me,” she said. “Still doing good, I’m working. I clean houses and restaurants. I do go to meetings. I try to go at least two a week, but if not two, I will definitely go to one a week.”
