Her ex-fiancé Josh Murray, who proposed on the spinoff, called the police on her during a dispute over their car. Murray allegedly asked Stanton to give him $30,000 to pay off the Audi Q5 he bought for her. “Amanda told Josh she wanted to work out the car situation when she got back from vacation,” a source told In Touch. “But instead of waiting any longer, he called the police the day she got home.” Stanton claimed she was “very cooperative” and gave police the keys “right away” when they went to her home.
