However,Standifer told the publication otherwise. Talking toThe U.S. Sun, she claimed that Edwards continued to push their divorce back. “Ryan Edwards has requested that our hearing for divorce be pushed back four separate times," she said. “He has a child on the way, and is reportedly engaged to Amanda. I wish he would be more willing to close this chapter between us and focus on what lies ahead for himself.”

Through their divorce,Standifer has accusedEdwards ofhiding a child from the public.She also accused his parents of helping, and she also was the one to reveal that Conner was pregnant before the couple did. This back and forth is par for the course with their divoce as a whole. Standifer had until December 2 to file the paperwork that Edwards was requesting. There has yet to be an update on whether their divorce is now moving forward as Edwards and Standifer both seemingly want it to. The two share children; sonJaggerand daughterStella. Edwards also has a son,Bentley Edwards, withMaci Bookout. You can see them both onTeen Mom: The Next Chapter.
