Fans questioned if the star was leaving the long-running MTV series after she wrote about seeking a "fresh change" and "opening a new chapter" in an Instagram post.

Amber, 31, shared a selfie looking directly at the camera with her long brunette hair in loose waves.

She added a decorative gold design around the photo along with her telling caption.

The caption read: "A new week, a new fresh chance. Anything is possible, follow your heart and only look back to see how far you’ve come.

"Easier said than done, but we’re opening new chapters and writing the future."

The comments section flooded with a slew of support from fans dropping encouraging words for the star.

users, however, thought the post might have been a message that her days on the network have come to an end.

One concerned fan shared the post, adding the caption: "Is this Amber’s zen way of letting the world know she’s been s**t canned from the show?"

Others gave their theories on the meaning behind her post as one wrote: "I think if she was fired this post would be super angry yelling in all caps about how she created the show and how dare they."

While a second person echoed the statement, writing: "Lol no. If she got fired she'd freak out not post something like this."

Devoted fans have followed Amber's story since Teen Mom OG began over a decade ago.

The reality star has documented her co-parenting relationship with her ex Gary Shirley, 35, on the show as the two share 13-year-old daughter Leah.

CUSTODY WAR

Amber is currently embroiled in a heated custody battle with her ex Andrew over their toddler son.

Andrew was granted primary physical custody of James after Amber was arrested for domestic violence against her then-boyfriend in July 2019. 

The exes share joint legal custody, allowing the TV star three unsupervised visits a week with James.

Andrew has also expressed his concerns about his ex's past drug use by demanding Amber take a hair follicle test

He called for the test in October 2021 after he allegedly witnessed her displaying “paranoid” behavior during a custody exchange. 

Amber responded to his filing just days later, denying his drug allegations. 

SHOCK CLAIMS

She wrote in her response: “Mother has exercised her parenting time with the parties’ child without any incidents regarding any type of substance abuse.”

She explained that she is still on probation from her 2019 domestic violence arrest against Andrew and is required to submit random monthly drug screens.

Amber said she has “never failed a drug screen."

Earlier that year, she had requested a modification of custody to include overnight visitation with James. 

Amber claimed it is in the “best interest” of James that “the current parenting time be modified to include overnight parenting time.”

The star requested primary physical custody of James and for Andrew to have parenting time.

A decision has not been made regarding the custody change.

AMBER'S VICTORY

However, Amber did score a major victory last month as the former partners gear up for their two-day trial.

In court papers obtained by The Sun, Amber filed a motion requesting the time given for Andrew to respond to her “Interrogatories and Request for Production of Documents” be shortened to February 28, which would give him 20 days from when he was served. 

She claimed the “requested answers and documentation are necessary for [Amber’s] counsel to properly prepare for the two-day trial.”

But Andrew’s legal team fought back and filed an objection to Amber’s motion to shorten time to respond to discovery, which is evidence to be used at trial.

He wrote in the court papers: “Respondent filed her discovery requests on February 7, 2022, which include 26 interrogatories and 20 requests for production of documents.

“Respondent has had years to conduct discovery but has waited until the last minute to do so.”

He claimed he served her with discovery back in October 2021, which she has “yet to answer.”

ANDREW FIGHTS BACK

Andrew said granting her request would “be rewarding [Amber] and counsel for [their] negligence to this matter to the detriment of [Andrew.]

A judge agreed with Amber and set the deadline for February 28. 

Andrew then hit back by filing documents requesting the court to order Amber to “submit full, complete responses to discovery” sent in October 2021 to his legal team. 

Andrew claimed in court papers: “Respondent’s responses to discovery are necessary for adequate preparation for a final hearing in this matter on March 2 and March 3, 2022.”

An Indiana judge granted Andrew’s request and gave Amber a deadline of February 14.

Court papers confirm Amber provided the documents by the deadline.
