Amanda Bynes

These days, Amanda Bynes' public appearances are even rarer than usual, given the pandemic.

But she and fiance Paul Michael continue to go strong.

Two months ago, troubled Amanda Bynes returned to Instagram to remind the world that she's alive and as well as she can be.

Now, she wants people to know something else: she and her fiance are going strong!

Amanda Bynes is back on social media about six months after deleting her Instagram account.

Bynes' half a million followers might have been taken by surprise by the actress' return for a couple of reasons:

Back in February, Amanda Bynes announced her engagement to Paul Michael, a man she met during her latest stint in rehab.

Shortly thereafter, Bynes and Michael broke up, only to announce a few days later that they had reconciled and were still planning to marry.

On Valentine's Day of this year, Amanda Bynes became engaged to a man she met in rehab. 

Now, the couple are expecting their first child.

Just three weeks after announcing their engagement, reports claimed that Amanda Bynes and Paul Michael had broken up.

Now, they're both making it very clear that they're together, and Paul is explaining the apparent mix-up.

Over the weekend, Amanda Bynes and Paul Michael ended their engagement only three weeks after announcing it.

Now, she has reportedly been ordered into a live-in rehab facility. 

On Valentine's Day, Amanda Bynes announced her engagement to a man whom she had met in rehab.

In a shocking twist, just weeks later, the two of them have broken up.

It's tough to know what to make of Amanda Bynes' personal life and mental health these days.

The past year has seen several encouraging updates from the former child star, but these have frequently been followed by distressing updates that seem to indicate the former child star is not well.

It can be tough to keep track of what's going on with Amanda Bynes these days.

There have been some encouraging updates in recent years, but sadly, they're almost almost always followed by distressing news of a relapse or mental breakdown.

These are sad, strange times in the life of Amanda Bynes.

For a while there, it looked as though things were finally turning around for the troubled former Nickelodeon star.

Back in September, Amanda Bynes checked into rehab to be treated for substance abuse and mental health issues.

In many cases, such a development in the life of a former child star would be greeted with consternation, but in Bynes' case fans saw it for what it was -- a sign of progress.

The child star who goes off the rails and squanders their talent in the flurry of partying and bad decisions is an all too familiar trope these days.

But as much as we've come to expect it from performers who were thrust into the national spotlight several years before their brains fully developed, it still came as something of a shock when such an unfortunate fate befell Amanda Bynes.

Today, on this very special Tuesday in September, I'm happy to share that Amanda Bynes has joined Instagram.

The 33-year-old just made her first-ever post, and as usual, she is leaving quite a big impression.

Earlier this year, the world learned that Amanda Bynes was back in rehab. It was her very brave choice after suffering a relapse.

After the extreme drug use of her past, she's taking all of the necessary steps to maintain her health.

About two weeks ago, it was reported that Amanda Bynes was back in rehab following an unfortunate relapse.

Fans had been so happy seeing the once-troubled star retake control of her life. Now, things may be worse than ever.

Back in November, fans rejoiced at news of an Amanda Bynes comeback.

Bynes was one of TV's most popular entertainers at the height of her fame, and her foray into film acting was highlighted by roles in such films as Hairspray, Easy A, and She's the Man.

Amanda Bynes has posted a new photo of herself on Twitter.

And you may need to brace yourself for this one, celebrity gossip followers.

For Amanda Bynes, the road to recovery has been a long and difficult one with many potholes and detours along the way.

Bynes' struggle with mental illness played out in the public eye, and when she began to show signs of recovery earlier this year, fans rejoiced at the thought of having "the old Amanda" back.

It's been a very long time since anyone has heard from or laid eyes on Amanda Bynes, who quietly resurfaced on Twitter over the weekend.

The actress gave fans and followers a nice surprise when she shared a photo of herself posing with a friend and bouquets of flowers:
