Troubled former Nickelodeon star Amanda Bynes and her fiance of just three weeks, Paul Michael, have called off their engagement to be married. No word on who got the $49 engagement ring.
The 33-year-old actress had previously announced to the world on social media that she was officially engaged to the “love of her life” and showing off a massive emerald-cut engagement ring that apparently wasn’t real and cost $49 on Amazon, according to TMZ.
“Hey everyone, this is Paul, my fiance. I’m so lucky. As you can see, he’s drop-dead gorgeous. He’s also the best person on the face of the Earth,” Bynes said at the time.
There had been speculation that the 29-year-old Michael was already married or that the engagement was fake, plus there is the fact that Bynes, who now has two heart tattoos on her face, is still under a conservatorship can’t legally get married unless the judge and her mom, the conservator, officially sign off on it.
That was a problem since it was reported that Bynes’ parents had never met Michael who Bynes had only met just a few months ago while they were in rehab together.

Michael confirmed the breakup to InTouch Weekly, “We did. I love her though, she’s my best friend.”
Bynes has since deleted any reference to Michael on her social media accounts. Her most recent post on Instagram was a celebration of being sober for 14 months now. So congratulations are certainly still in order for her.
