Teen Mom star Mackenzie Edwards posted and quickly deleted a cryptic message on Instagram on Wednesday. “Stop talking down on people who lost their way and start praying they find their way,” read the post. This came just after her ex-husband, Ryan Edwards, was sentenced to almost a year in prison on drug possession and DUI charges from earlier this year.
Many fans were left guessing who the post could be about, with some hoping that it was about herself, rather than Ryan.
Ryan’s recent troubles include a drug possession arrest in April 2023, where he was found unconscious in his truck with a small bag of what appeared to be a crystal-type substance and a second small bag of what appeared to be blue powder. The DEA had warned that fentanyl could come in a blue powder, but it is not confirmed whether this was the case in Ryan’s situation.
Ryan has been in and out of jail throughout the year, and in February 2023, Mackenzie filed for a protection order against Ryan, claiming he had held her up by the neck, thrown her down, and opened a pocket knife to her back.

Mackenzie’s post, while cryptic, suggests a hope for Ryan’s recovery and a move away from negative judgement. Whether it was directed towards Ryan or not remains to be seen.
