The social media announcement comes in the wake of her pregnancy announcement, that has since been deleted from Instagram.

Amanda made headlines when she uploaded a picture of a sonogram scan but the baby news turned out to be untrue.

An insider source previously told E! News that while Amanda’s parents know about her engagement, they are not approving her to legally marry Paul whilst her affairs and finances are still under their control.

The conservatorship has reportedly been in action since Amanda’s first personal and legal troubles that led to her checking in to rehab facilities.
