Bynes' hopeful update comes after a few months of hardship, including relationship turmoil and a pregnancy announcement that was retracted two months later by her lawyer, David Esquibias.

At the time Bynes announced the alleged pregnancy in March, the couple both shared a photo of a sonogram, although later deleted the image.

Shortly after that initial announcement, Esquibias also issued a statement addressing the star's health.

"Any reports that Amanda is suffering from drug or alcohol addiction issues are completely false," his statement read at the time. "She is seeking treatment for ongoing mental health issues. We ask for privacy during this time, and for any speculation about her personal life from the public and the media to cease so Amanda can focus on getting better."

And as for Bynes' whirlwind romance, it's unclear when or if that marriage ceremony will actually take place. An insider source previously told E! News that while Byne's parents are aware of her engagement, they are not approving their daughter to legally get married while under their conservatorship.
