Amanda Bynes Dismisses Viral Rumors Of Secret Pregnancy

Amanda Bynes Shuts Down Viral Rumors

Amanda Bynes is setting the record straight against a swirling viral video suggesting she was secretly pregnant at age 13 with producer Dan Schneider's child. The former Nickelodeon star, who gained fame in the 2000s through shows produced by Schneider, is no stranger to the rumor mill. Most recently, a video that appeared to implicate Bynes in a past pregnancy scandal has been circulating, but Bynes insists it's all fabricated.

The video in question seems to show Bynes addressing the allegations directly, yet she claims the footage was manipulated. "Parts of the circulating edit were lifted from a short Instagram Story I posted," Bynes explained. The viral clip combined unrelated scenes, making it seem like she was accusing Schneider of fathering a child with her at 13.

"The TikTok was doctored to look like my own upload," Bynes told TMZ, clarifying that the video included clips from her social media and a comedic skit from 'The Amanda Show.'

Previous Pregnancy Rumors Resurface

This isn't Amanda's first rodeo with pregnancy speculation. Back in 2020, Bynes stirred the pot by sharing an ultrasound image on Instagram, which she later deleted. Her attorney quickly stepped in to clarify that she was not expecting a child with her then-fiancé, Paul Michael. Their whirlwind romance had started in late 2019, leading to a rapid engagement on Valentine's Day, only to fizzle out a month later.

Michael had also shared pictures suggesting they were expecting, but the rumors were unfounded. Despite the buzz, Bynes remained focused on her personal growth and future plans.

New Beginnings and Personal Goals

Amanda is embracing a new chapter in her life, and a big part of that is her fitness journey. The actress has been candid about her intentions to lose weight and feel more confident, especially as she revamps her presence on OnlyFans. Earlier this year, she revealed plans to use Ozempic to help manage her weight.

"I'm going on Ozempic. So excited," Bynes shared in a video. "I'm 173 now, so I hope to get down to like 130, which would be awesome."

Bynes also sparked engagement rumors earlier in the year when she sported a sparkly ring, though insiders quickly clarified it was just a fashion choice. As for her love life, the mystery man in her life has been unveiled as Zachary, a longtime friend. The two have been seen enjoying each other's company, marking a fresh start for Bynes as she focuses on her career and personal happiness.
