Trigger Warning: This story discusses domestic violence and abuse.

Amanda Conner recently told police that her husband, Ryan Edwards, has allegedly been physically abusive to her in the past, and now Amanda’s sister Ashley is coming forward with more (alleged) claims of the “Teen Mom” star’s physical violence, including a recent incident in which Ashley claims Amanda almost died.

As The Ashley reported on Monday, Amanda called the police to ask for an assist to retrieve her things from Ryan’s house, noting in the call that Ryan “has a history of physical abuse towards [her].” That call came one day after Ryan called the police on Amanda to inform them that Amanda hadn’t slept for two days and had taken off with their daughter Presley in her car, and was allegedly driving high. Amanda was arrested Sunday on charges of DUI, child abuse and more.

Anyway, Amanda’s (look- and sound-alike) sis, Ashley, hit Facebook on Monday and Tuesday to post a series of videos giving more details about Amanda and Ryan’s volatile relationship, as well as their sobriety status. She also opened up about alleged acts of violence that Ryan has committed against Amanda over the course of their relationship.

“I did just wanna get on here and clear up a few things … in this whole situation involving my sister Amanda Conner and Ryan, y’all definitely don’t have the whole story,” Ashley stated. “There are large, like, very crucial elements to the story, to the situation, and not just that night … there’s large pieces of information missing that y’all don’t know about or whatever, because they were not brought to your attention…”

Ashley went on to explain what she says happened that night between Ryan and Amanda. 

“I’m not taking up for Amanda, because you know, I’m not taking up for that at all, but I was on the phone with Amanda, she called me,” Ashley said. “[Ryan and Amanda] had got into it. They have been getting into it a lot here lately, and even to the point of him being physical with her, whooping her [a**], choking her out…

“… I mean, it was a couple of months ago and he about killed her,” she alleged. “I mean, choking her out, whooping her a** and everything. [He] about killed her and y’all don’t know about that because she didn’t call the police.” 

Ashley added that she believes Amanda “probably definitely should have” called the police because “she thought that her life was going to end.”

“She lost consciousness multiple times and continued to be choked and strangled,” Ashley said.

This is not the first time it’s been alleged that Ryan has gotten violent with Amanda. Earlier this month social media creator Rei Clarke admitted during an online spat with Ryan and Amanda that Amanda had previously sent her a few photos in which Amanda was sporting a black eye and that Amanda had told her that Ryan had been the one who gave her the black eye.

In addition, Ryan’s ex-wife Mackenzie has also accused Ryan of domestic violence numerous times. In a petition filed in 2024 for a protective order (which was eventually granted), Mackenzie stated that Ryan repeatedly got violent with her and made threats against her, sometimes in front of their children. She also accused Ryan of throwing her down, threatening her with weapons, slamming her against a wall, throwing nicotine in her eyes, and committing other violent acts.

In the same series of videos, Amanda’s sister also stated that she feels it’s “unfair” that Ryan is being presented as a hero for calling the cops on Amanda, seemingly to protect Presley. 

“ … first of all, that was so low-down of him to make that phone call, to call the police and get them involved in their stuff,” she said. “That’s so low-down. The phone call was not even placed out of concern for Presley’s well-being. That phone call was placed because it was a power
control move thing.”

When addressing whether or not she believes Ryan is still sober, Ashley stated that she doesn’t think so. 

“I have a strong feeling that everything done in the dark is about to– will come to the light,” she said. “And I will say, there are no innocent victims– there are no innocent adults in this situation, scenario, case, so let’s get that clear.”

In another video, Ashley continued to hint that she believes that if Amanda is using again, so is Ryan.

“There are no innocent bystanders in that situation,” she said. “They’re right there, hand-in-hand; they are husband and wife, they live together. I mean, they’re both addicts so take from that what you will … I’ll say that, that no, these assumptions that because he called the law that he is sober, that is a completely false narrative. That’s not true at all.”

She did state that there was a period of time where Amanda and Ryan— who met while both were attending court-ordered rehab— were happy and healthy.

“They were doing good for a good year-and-a-half [to] two years that I know of,” she said. “They were doing good, and when I say doing
good, they were taking care of business, doing what they were supposed to be doing, sober– everybody was sober … .”

As The Ashley previously reported, Ryan’s mother Jen Edwards appears to be caring for the couple’s one-year-old daughter Presley, whom Amanda is currently not allowed to have contact with, due to the restrictions placed on her for her release from jail.
