Andrew moved to California with their son after a nasty court battle in 2022.

The pair previously resided at the $5million estate belonging to Andrew's mother, which was more than 2,000 miles from Amber's Indiana home.

'TOUGH ON HER'

After their relocation to California, the MTV star made trips to the West Coast to visit her long-distance son.

Amber made regular monthly visits with James, which included overnight stays.

In November 2022, an insider close to the situation told The U.S. Sun that the MTV mom made her visits with her second child her top priority.

The source said: "Amber is now at the full visits with James that the court set forth for them in their final custodial decision. She has him five days a month, and her time with him alternates between California and Indiana."

Another insider close to the TV star revealed Amber frequently used FaceTime to bridge the gaps between visits.

The other source added: "Amber has been trying really hard to make sure she's in James' life despite the distance. It's tough on her, but she's making it work."

During the Teen Mom: The Next Chapter Reunion in December 2022, Amber opened up about how difficult it became to lose custody of her second child.

In addition to their son James, the TV star shares her 14-year-old daughter, Leah, with her ex Gary Shirley, 36.

Gary married his new wife, Kristina, 36, in November 2015.
