On May 24, 2026, the 35-year-old Conner—who recently entered the public eye through her relationship and September marriage to Teen Mom alum Ryan Edwards—was arrested following a disturbing 911 call.

According to police reports, a husband contacted authorities to report that his wife had left their residence in a vehicle with their infant child while allegedly under the influence of narcotics. Law enforcement subsequently intercepted the vehicle, leading to Conner being booked on multiple serious charges, including:

• Driving Under the Influence (DUI)
• Child Abuse and Neglect
• Driving on the Wrong Side of the Road

Breaking Her Silence

Three days after the incident, on May 27, 2026, Conner released a video statement on TikTok to address her community and the public. Visibly shaken but resolute, she did not shy away from ownership of the situation, choosing instead to speak openly about her struggle with sobriety.

“Addiction does not care how long you’ve been clean,” Conner shared in the video.
