Nickelodeon alum Amanda Bynes has had a tumultuous past few years ridden with mental health issues and run-ins with the law. However, it finally seems like things are starting to look up. In March 2022, she was freed from her conservatorship, which her parents had placed her under in 2013.
Now, she can focus on her relationship with her fiancé Paul Michael, who can be seen in a rare photo above.
