After months of silence, Amanda Bynes' mother has spoken out about her daughter.

Following Bynes' hospitalization and rumors of substance abuse, Lynn Bynes has spoken with People after receiving temporary conservatorship of her 27-year old daughter.

"I would really like everyone out there to know that almost 99 percent of the things written about my daughter in various media outlets are false or misleading," Bynes said in a statement to the publication. "Unless it's a statement issued by our family attorney, Tamar Arminak, please take everything you read about Amanda with a grain of salt."

The actress was recently transferred to a facility in Malibu. People notes that Bynes will remain their for the "foreseeable future."

"We appreciate everyone's heartfelt support and we hope that she can get some privacy and the respect she deserves during this trying time," Lynn adds. "Both my husband and I love Amanda very much and we know that she will get through this situation."

Bynes has recently been in the news for a series of odd behavioral encounters which have led to legal troubles. The actress began her career as a cast member on the Nickelodeon television series All That, The Amanda Show, and What I Like About You. In the 2000s, she appeared in teenage-oriented films including Big Fat Liar (2002), What a Girl Wants (2003), Love Wrecked (2005), She's the Man (2006), Hairspray (2007), Sydney White (2007) and Easy A (2010).
