Ryan Edwards Moves Onto His Second Marriage, Weeks After Ending His First
The Teen Mom cast never fails to deliver in the love department. While we don’t know the future of the longstanding MTV franchise, the cast members are out here living their lives. Someone is always making up, breaking up, or getting married. Ryan Edwards has embarked on a new marriage this week. He is officially a married man again after spending just a few weeks as a legally divorced man.
Ryan Edwards is on to his second marriage, weeks after finalizing his divorce
Ryan Edwards ended one marriage and began another. The former Teen Mom OG star and his gal pal, Amanda Conner, tied the knot in a courthouse ceremony this week. According to People, the couple was married on September 4, almost exactly three weeks after Edwards finalized his divorce from his previous wife. A judge signed off on their split on August 15.
The duo, who have shared their romance on social media since meeting in a court-ordered rehab in 2023, were eager to make things official. They’ve been engaged since at least January and welcomed their first child together in February. The only thing stopping the pair was the lengthy divorce process.
Interestingly, their meeting was actually facilitated by the breakdown of his previous marriage. Edwards was forced into rehab after destroying the home he once shared with his first wife, Mackenzie Standifer. He met Conner there, and they transitioned into a relationship after leaving the sober living facility. They moved in together in 2024, and followers suspected they were engaged and expecting months before they announced either life event.
Neither Conner nor Edwards is new to the marriage game. As noted, Edwards has been married once before, with the union ending in an arrest. Her marriage to Edwards marks Conner’s third trip down the aisle. She was briefly married to an unknown man while living in Florida. She later married the father of her eldest child, though they split in 2019. Conner regained custody of her 11-year-old son just before welcoming her daughter with Edwards. He previously resided with family members.
Is Mackenzie Standifer in a relationship?
While Edwards and Conner are settling into wedded bliss, things are a bit messier for Mackenzie Standifer. While she’s officially free to marry again, it appears she is dating around and may have stumbled into a relationship with the ex-husband of a former friend. Standifer was accused of having an affair with the husband of her former friend in July.
Since then, the former friend has been calling Standifer out on social media, but the mother of three has opted to offer vague updates instead, like requesting recommendations for a good lawyer. It is unclear where she and the unnamed man stand at the moment. Still, it is probably safe to say a trip down the aisle is not in her near future.
