“Let’s go!”

“I appreciate this.”
SHOCKING DRUG CLAIMS
In an exclusive with The Sun released yesterday, Andrew alleged Amber abused meth and used other drugs while pregnant with their son.
Amber and Andrew, 37, have been in a nasty custody war over their son James, three, since their split in 2019.
The Sun exclusively revealed Andrew is demanding that Amber take a hair follicle test after he allegedly witnessed her displaying “paranoid” behavior during a recent custody exchange.
Andrew claimed in the custody court papers that Amber has a “history of substance abuse, even while pregnant with and subsequently caring for the minor child herein,” a claim the Teen Mom OG star denied in her response.
He continued to allege that at a parenting exchange on October 16, Amber was “acting erratically, speaking frantically, and appeared completely paranoid and disheveled.”
The court papers continued to allege: “[Amber] went so far as to allege that two nearby vehicles were ‘staking her out’ and waved down Petitioner/Father as he was leaving with the minor child to ask him to tell the individuals in the nearby vehicles to ‘stop’ staking her out.”
Andrew then claimed he has “witnessed Amber under the influence of illegal drugs previously, specifically methamphetamine,” which is the formal name for meth.
He said her behavior on October 16 was “substantially similar to that which he has previously witnessed.”
The court papers continued to claim: “Furthermore, Respondent/Mother recently posted a video on Instagram in which her pupils were very dilated to the point that public commenters were noticing.”
He is demanding Amber “immediately submit to a hair follicle drug screen.”
GLAMMED UP
Before Amber’s drug use allegations, the star showed off her new look after she had filmed the reunion show, which was filmed after the nasty feud with her baby daddy Gary Shirley.
At the beginning of October, during a recent episode of the MTV reality show, Gary opened up to Kristina about his strained relationship with Amber.
He told his wife: “Just because we apologized to each other and get everything out of the way, it doesn’t mean that Leah’s relationship is gonna be alternately fixed.
“Leah might still need time.”
He continued: “I know if we’re all getting along, it will make it easier for Leah.”
Gary went on: “My biggest fear is we’re gonna fix this and it’s a matter of time because if her relationship isn’t repaired with Leah, it’s gonna be like, ‘Okay, you’re still mad at everything and you’re gonna take it out on us.’
“Honestly, if I could have my way, I would just be done with it but it’s not the case.”
He ended the discussion on: “We have a kid together and we need to make sure that kid’s happy and healthy.”
AMBER’S NEW MAN?
Earlier this month, Amber was spotted leaving the airport with a mystery man after landing in LA for the Teen Mom OG reunion.
The MTV star recently came out as bisexual and slammed rumors that she used the announcement as a “storyline” for the show.
Amber was seen arriving in Los Angeles with an unidentified man as they two were snapped while leaving the airport.
The reality star wore a brown long-sleeved dress, brown boots, and a denim jacket wrapped around her waist as she navigated to her destination.
Her male companion was dressed in a white tee-shirt with Miles Davis on the front, black pants, and red sneakers.
Amber and her mystery man left the LAX airport and were seen rounding the corner to cross the street in broad daylight.
A source later revealed to The Sun that her companion was an MTV crew member.
