The 28-year-old has reportedly failed out of the Fashion Institute Design & Merchandising, according to a new report, after less than a full year there.
Amanda Bynes’ DUI arrest earlier this week sparked concerns that the mentally fragile aspiring fashion designer is headed down a dark path again.
She’s reportedly on Adderall and off her medication for schizophrenia and bipolarity, and worse yet, insiders say she’s “smoking pot and drinking again.”
Bynes’ conservatorship, under which her parents controlled her financial, legal and medical decisions after her meltdown last year, just lapsed.
They simply didn’t ask the court to renew it, believing their daughter was better.
It’s a decision that would’ve been baffling even before this week’s news, given the extent of Amanda’s bizarre and destructive downward spiral.
Now that she’s been arrested for DUI a second time and failed out of school? Her parents’ denial of her mental illness may have dire consequences.
According to a source, “Amanda just stopped going to classes. Everything had been going very well for her up until the conservatorship ended.
“Her instructors have tried to reach out to Amanda, given her history of very public breakdowns, but got no response. As a result, Amanda flunked out.”

Said the source, “It’s really sad, because Amanda had been doing so well.”
That feels like a distant memory now, even if it’s been a matter of weeks.
Bynes had been commuting from her parents’ house in Thousand Oaks, Calif., to the Irvine, Calif., campus, which took up to two hours each way.
But when the conservatorship ended, she moved into an Orange County apartment near the school, by herself, and things quickly went downhill.
“Amanda is smoking pot again, and drinking,” a source close to her says.
“She stopped taking her psychiatric medications. She is out of control, and having the conservatorship end is probably the worst thing in the world for her.”
“This is truly just sad. Amanda had been making such great strides.”
“Several networks were in contact with her lawyers about doing an in-depth interview, and follow Amanda around New York City for Fashion Week.”
“A couple of weeks ago, those talks abruptly stopped, and no one knew why. Now, it’s become very clear. She needs to get back into treatment!”
Here’s hoping she does exactly that, and not a moment too soon.
Kailyn Lowry and Amber Portwood: Unexpected BFF Alert!
The cast members of Teen Mom film in their own hometowns, so it’s rare that they get to interact and work with each other for extended periods of time.
Even more rare are intergenerational Teen Mom hangouts. That’s right, we’re talking about stars of Teen Mom 1 and Teen Mom 2 setting aside their disagreements about which series was more effed up and getting together to neglect their kids.
That’s why we’re thrilled – and maybe a little disturbed – by the sight of the Amber Portwood and Kailyn Lowry promoting their memoirs together:
That’s right. Amber and Kailyn are sharing their life stories with the world, and they’ve decided to team up and do it together.
Portwood admits to being a sex-obsessed suicidal drug addict in hers, so it might move few more copies, but Lowry’s no slouch in the controversy department either:
Kailyn’s racist comments about her, mixed-race son’s haircut have made her the show’s new villain of the moment. No small feat when you share screen time with the likes of Jennelle Evans.
Anyway, these two are more than just book signing partners. They’ve been tweeting their love to each other for days and we couldn’t be happier about it.
Here’s hoping MTV rents them an apartment for a Snooki & JWoww-style spin-off.
In the meantime, watch Teen Mom online at TV Fanatic to relive all the baby mama drama.
