The controversial father shares the teen with his ex Maci Bookout, 32.
Amanda kicked off her Stories with a blurry shot of a wrestling match scoreboard.
Her second post was a video of Bentley preparing for his wrestling match and shaking hands with his coach.

The Jerry Springer alum also filmed the teen as he went head-to-head with another wrestler, and tussled for well over a minute on the mat.
Amanda could be heard shouting support and laughing as she watched Ryan's son compete.
The Chattanooga native closed out her posts with a black-and-white selfie with her man.
In the snap, the couple grinned while wearing sports memorabilia and beads from Bentley's wrestling team.

Amanda captioned the post, "Go Buccaneers #Bentley," and she added a geotag that revealed the location to be the Embassy Suites by Hilton Nashville South/Cool Springs in Franklin, Tennessee.
FAN BACKLASH
Fans were instantly concerned by the TV star's appearance at the teen's match, and even more so with her decision to post clips.
Several took to Reddit where they discussed whether or not her involvement with Bentley's game was appropriate.
"Ryan’s new girlfriend already posting Bentley on her social media. I think she needs to stay in her lane and this is not it. Thoughts?" one wrote, opening up the conversation.
"I bet she’s just trying to get a reaction from maci lol. Pathetic to use a kid like that. New girlfriend is such a 12 year old," a second agreed.
"Classic move for the new girlfriend of a deadbeat dad," a third trolled.
"Where's your own son, Amanda?" a fourth wondered.
"Filming kids that aren't hers...btw where are her kids? What a weirdo," a fifth scathed.
"How are her or Ryan allowed anywhere near Bentley at this point?" a final wondered.
RYAN'S STRUGGLES
Ryan first appeared on MTV's show 16 & Pregnant and then on Teen Mom as Maci Bookout's baby daddy.
In 2017, he married Mackenzie Edwards, with whom he shares two more kids, but they split up and divorced in February 2023.
After that, Ryan pleaded guilty to a harassment charge and was ordered to complete rehab and have no contact with Mackenzie.
On August 14, Ryan was ordered to go to a halfway house after 28 days in rehab, The U.S. Sun exclusively confirmed.
NEW ROMANCE
He met his new girlfriend Amanda Connor while he was in the rehabilitation facility.
Since they were both released, they have been practically inseparable.
Earlier this week, she shared a video of Ryan, from the back, bent over a sink while brushing his teeth.
In the clip, he was shirtless and wearing a pair of red shorts, but his tattoos were still in full view.
The ink on his chest and rib cage could be seen in the reflection in the mirror.
RED FLAG?
Informants close to the couple have shared their concerns about their relationship.
A source told The U.S. Sun: "Choosing to use your time on and the type of people you’re surrounding yourself with is not OK.
"This girl is dangerous."
A different insider also exclusively told The U.S. Sun that Amanda is well known in Chattanooga for her bad reputation.
They claimed: "Amanda is trouble. She has been in and out of the system since she was old enough to catch a charge.
"She is not a good influence on Ryan."
