Amanda Bynes back in contact with her parents after months of estrangement

Amanda Bynes is reportedly back in contact with her parents after revealing on Twitter several week ago that she was estranged from her family.

A source told RadarOnline.com on Friday that Amanda Bynes “reconnected with her parents this week and it was a really positive talk on both ends”.

The insider elaborated: “Her parents are good people who are genuinely concerned for her. And Amanda misses them, so she finally called them up.”

The successful conversation may even lead to an East Coast physical reunion between New York City-based Amanda Bynes and her parents, who have remained in Los Angeles throughout her myriad antics.

“Amanda’s parents really want to see her so they’re thinking of flying out to New York as early as next week.

“The last place Amanda wants to be is Los Angeles. She likes New York and doesn’t want to leave,” the source added.

Earlier in April, Amanda Bynes alarmed followers on Twitter when she confessed she’d severed communication with her parents, Rick and Lynn: “I don’t speak to my parents anymore, they don’t talk to reporters on my behalf.

“Don’t believe anything you read about me unless I tweet it.”

Amanda Bynes’ recent bizarre behavior, which includes posting a collection of increasingly lascivious self-portraits from her bathroom, shaving one side of her head and publicly smoking marijuana, has prompted widespread concern from fans and family members alike.

The actress appears to be spending most of her time alone with the majority of her social interactions occurring on Twitter, where she’s accrued nearly one million followers.

On Thursday, Amanda Bynes, 27, added to the online portfolio by posting two snaps of herself wearing a blonde wig with a thick fringe and green streaks.
