Amanda Conner, the wife of former Teen Mom personality Ryan Edwards, was taken into custody by the Chattanooga Police Department in Tennessee during the early morning hours of Sunday, May 24, 2026. Authorities booked Conner on multiple charges, including driving under the influence, child abuse and neglect, reckless endangerment, and operating a vehicle on the wrong side of the road.
The arrest followed a 911 call placed by Ryan Edwards, who reported his wife for driving while intoxicated with their one-year-old child inside the vehicle. Edwards further alleged to dispatchers that Conner had potentially used narcotics and noted that she refused to submit to a drug screening during the encounter with law enforcement.
According to official court documentation, a bond for Conner was set at 16,000 dollars. As part of the conditions for her potential release, a judge has issued a mandatory no-contact order prohibiting her from being in the presence of the infant until the conclusion of judicial proceedings.
This incident occurs amid a history of legal challenges for both individuals. As noted in reports detailing the arrest, Conner previously entered a guilty plea for charges of driving under the influence and possession of a controlled substance in 2023. A court appearance for the current case is scheduled for June 3, 2026.
