Actress Amanda Bynes is doing "extremely well" as she settles into life as a fashion school student, according to her mother.
The former child star has been working on rebuilding her life since her release from a rehabilitation clinic in December.
She enrolled in a course at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Orange County, California last year and mum Lynn, who has become the Hairspray star's conservator, has now revealed she is thriving in school.
"(She) is doing extremely well," Lynn Bynes tells People magazine.
"She's making new friends and learning about the fashion industry."
