Former Child Star Spotted Out With New, Unrecognizable Look

The former child actress has completely given up on her Hollywood career after experiencing several crises connected to her mental health.

She has since debuted a fresh appearance that has truly taken folks by surprise.

Amanda Bynes used to be one of the most recognizable young people on the globe. But when her battle with mental illness began to worsen, the budding young star ceased making appearances on television and in movies.

In the recent past, the actress has opened up about her issues with substance abuse. “I got really into my drug usage and it became a really dark, sad world for me,” she said, describing her daily life after quitting acting as “just stuck at home, getting high, watching TV and tweeting,” she said in an interview.

“I’ve been sober for almost four years now,” Bynes at the time, credited her parents for “really helping me get back on track.”

Lynn and Rick Bynes, her parents, agreed with her decision to end her conservatorship. Since 2013, the former child actress has been under conservatorship. In 2017, her guardianship of the property ended.

“In the last several years, I have been working hard to improve my health so that I can live and work independently, and I will continue to prioritize my well-being in this next chapter,” Bynes said in a statement delivered by her attorney, David Esquibias, on March 22, 2022. “I am excited about my upcoming endeavors—including my fragrance line—and look forward to sharing more when I can,” the actress said about gaining control back in her life.

The Ventura Superior Court Judge Roger L. Lund, who made the decision for dissolution of the conservatorship, said that the decision came about because “grounds for establishment of a conservatorship of the person no longer exist.”

However, things kind of fell apart last year. The actress called emergency services herself and was put on a 72-hour psychiatric detention. A source close to the situation at the time said, “She hasn’t been in contact with her family for quite some time.”

On March 19, the actress was spotted strolling around Los Angeles’ streets. In order to receive assistance, she then flagged down a passing car and dialed 911 for herself.

The actress reportedly explained to the driver that she had been recovering from a mental episode. After that, she was brought to the local police station, where staff members decided she needed to be placed under a 5150 mental hold.

The actress hasn’t made headlines since the 2023 episode until now. It appears like Amanda Bynes has changed her appearance in recent pictures.

The 38-year-old former child star, who had jet black hair and incredibly long nails, was spotted last week.

She had on khaki shorts and an oversized gray t-shirt. She accessorized her ensemble by wearing a cross-body purse on her shoulder.

The former actress, who cut her hair late last year because she was unhappy with how it was “growing out so awkwardly,” announced in March of this year that she was “going to start wearing wigs now.”

She has already discussed how her unhappiness this year caused her to acquire a lot of weight, and she is hoping to reduce more than 50 pounds in order to reach her desired weight goal.

As pictures of her current look hit the internet, some people did not have very kind things to say. One person wrote, “Very scary. She has become a monster.” While another added, “People are turning into the white walkers 🤦🏻‍♀️”

But others were angry at the picture and the mean-spirited comments. One person wrote, “This should have never made it onto the Internet. This woman is in the middle of a massive mental health crisis. Ye should be so ashamed. Leave her alone.”

Another addition to Bynes’ defense is, “My heart breaks for her. I wish the internet would leave her alone 😢” with another chiming in with similar sentiment, saying, “Please stop posting Amanda she’s had enough scrutiny and hurt in her life. She’s suffered enough.”
