Teen Mom alum Ryan Edwards owes nearly $300K in taxes, all while his wife, Amanda Conner, has been charged with a DUI. So, when is this from, and what caused the failure to pay? Keep reading for more details on what is happening.
Ryan Edwards Falls Behind
Teen Mom fans saw Ryan Edwards become a first-time dad to Bentley at a very young age. He was dating Maci Bookout, and they eventually got engaged. That did not work out, and he fell into addiction. It could have ended and taken his life, but he met and married Mackenzie Standifer. The two had two children before they split, and he went to jail. While there, he was transferred to rehab, where he met Amanda Conner, someone Maci went to high school with. The two fell in love and ended up having a daughter, all while cleaning up their lives.
Unfortunately, Amanda relapsed and was arrested at the end of May 2026 for driving while intoxicated. Now, Ryan is dealing with more drama amid all of that. He has been slapped with nearly $300K in unpaid taxes from 2018 and 2019. It is actually the responsibility of Ryan and his ex-wife, Mackenzie, from when they were married. However, Ryan has claimed he does not have much money, especially when asked to pay child support. It seems that Teen Mom has been canceled, and without that income, he will have to rely solely on a regular income.
Allegedly, Ryan is making $27 per hour at a truck and trailer repair shop. Yet, he has so much on his plate, trying to stay sober and keeping tabs on his current wife. She had taken their daughter and driven off while intoxicated.
What’s Next For Ryan?
The Teen Mom star has been through a lot, especially recently. Having Amanda Conner drive off with his daughter was terrifying, but followers had suspected she had relapsed for some time. Ryan Edwards is staying strong, but he does need to find a way to work with his ex-wife to solve their tax problems. Mackenzie Standifer and Ryan owe exactly $291,812.48, and it won’t go away anytime soon. They can try to make a deal or payment plan, but they need to do something ASAP. For now, Ryan’s focus is likely on his wife and his daughter.
