'Everything's Fine!' Ryan Edwards' Wife Insists He's Sober Amid Heroin-Related Arrest
March 28 2018, Published 3:22 p.m. ET
Ryan Edwards was arrested on heroin-related charges nearly one year after a stint in rehab for drug abuse. Despite the bust, the Teen Mom OG star's wife Mackenzie is insisting he's sober exclusively to RadarOnline.com.
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Edwards, 30, was arrested at his Tennessee home at 3pm on March 27 on a warrant for petition to revoke, which means breaking probation, related to a past simple possession of heroin charge.
"He was held on a $5,000 bond," a spokesperson for Hamilton County Jail in Tennessee told RadarOnline.com. "He was bonded out at 10:15pm."
Mackenzie, who is expecting her first child with Edwards, told RadarOnline.com, "Possession of heroin was the original charge from April before he went to rehab. Part of his case was he had to be booked. Everything is fine." Mackenzie did not comment when asked if her husband broke his probation.

She also insisted that her husband is sober today. "He took a drug test yesterday and passed," she said.
The arrest comes one day after a sneak peek for next week's Teen Mom OG revealed his wife Mackenzie is pregnant with their first child together. Edwards has a son Bentley, 9, with ex-fiancé Maci Bookout, while his wife is mother to son Hudson, 4, with ex-husband Zachary Stephens.
Edwards was filmed slurring his words and falling asleep at the wheel while driving high to his May wedding. After the scene aired, he went to rehab for heroin.
He has been feuding with his baby mama Bookout, as she has refused to let Edwards take their son Bentley, 9, until he passed a drug test. Edwards can now see their son under the condition that his parents supervise the visits.
