Her Instagram return comes after it was reported she asked for a divorce from her husband.
It was understood he told Amy he was leaving her just days before Christmas.
However, it seems that Andrew and his new lover have now 'split'.
Sources have claimed that Amy wanted to "take back control" and divorced her husband.
"The shock twist is that it sounds as though after all the hurt and heartache, Andrew and Leila have actually split," the insider said.
“However, that hasn’t done much to change Amy’s mind."
The source continued to The Sun : "She’s told him she wants a divorce anyway. She’s been publicly humiliated and the pain has been unbearable."
