Mackenzie Edwards still wants a divorce. The Teen Mom star has been struggling to finalize the end of her marriage to Ryan Edwards. In fact, the proceedings have been dragged out for over a year at this point.
Last month it was reported in the US Sun that the troubled couple’s divorce case was dismissed due to a lack of activity. A court clerk explained that the case had “sat for over 270 days with nothing filed,” which was why it was decided that their divorce would not proceed.
However, some media outlets have reported that Mackenzie has not given up on it. The Ashley reportedly obtained court documents this month that revealed that Mackenzie had requested to reopen the case.
Ryan had reportedly been sent a copy of Mackenzie’s order, in which she asked the court to set aside their earlier dismissal. The reality TV star wished to restore their case to “active.” Ryan’s copy of the request was reportedly mailed to his parent’s house.
Ryan, Mackenzie claimed, is now living with his new girlfriend, Amanda Conner, whom he met while in rehab. A couple of weeks after Mackenzie revealed that Ryan had moved in with his girlfriend, the news was confirmed by Amanda herself.
She recently posted a picture of Ryan hanging up a TV on her social media. Amanda followed this with a post showing a photo of hardwood floors with a caption reading, “Our new home.”
Mackenzie and Ryan’s relationship troubles surfaced early last year after he accused her of cheating. Things escalated after police were called to the home of the former couple.
According to Mackenzie, Ryan Sent Her Threatening Messages
The Sun reported that Ryan had gone to the house he once shared with Makenzie and their kids to grab something. He allegedly arrived accompanied by police officers to avoid any potential confrontation with his estranged wife.
Upon Ryan’s arrival, Mackenzie allegedly accused him of sending her threatening messages. Mackenzie claimed that this happened after Ryan had left their marital home.
The Sun went on to report that they had obtained phone calls Mackenzie had previously made to police. In the first of these alleged calls, Mackenzie told the operator, “I need to speak to an officer. My ex-husband tore up my house almost a year ago.”
She reportedly added, “He hasn’t lived here in a year and he’s trying to come over and get some things. I don’t want him here.”
The Sun went on to report that in a later call, the dispatcher asked Mackenzie if Ryan had the former couple’s two children in his care. Mackenzie allegedly responded, “His mother does. He does not even see them, no. He lives with his girlfriend. She has them to spend the night because that’s their grandmother.”
For his part, Ryan alleged that he was “trying to get something out of the garage of mine where I live,” before requesting an officer to come with him to the house. He also allegedly told a police dispatcher, “We’re just in the process of getting divorced. Right now I don’t think it’s a good idea if I show up without an officer.”
Although their divorce case was recently dismissed, recent events have shown that neither Mackenzie nor Ryan have any desire to remain husband and wife.
