For over a decade, Casey Anthony stayed out of the spotlight, living a low-key life away from public scrutiny. But in 2025, she took a bold step forward by joining TikTok and Substack. Her social media presence came as a shock, with many left wondering why she decided to resurface now.
Casey claims her mission today is to shed light on legal advocacy and privacy rights. Her sudden reappearance has drawn millions of views, even as it leaves a sour taste for many who remember her high-profile trial. But one thing is crystal clear—people can’t look away.
Casey Anthony is framing her comeback as a story of growth, personal reflection, and resilience. Her TikTok videos and Substack posts present her as a legal advocate and voice for women’s and LGBTQ rights. According to Casey, her platform is a "blessing" she’s choosing to use for good.
However, her attempt to rewrite the narrative of her life has reignited criticism. For many, her bid for a public platform feels like a calculated move rather than a genuine attempt at redemption.
Her content started innocently enough. Casey’s TikTok account features vlogs, book recommendations, and morning routines designed to appear relatable. But over time, she began layering in reflective captions about “growth” and “moving forward,” making her social media feeds the subject of endless debate.
Some followers applaud her for owning her past and trying to move forward. Others aren’t convinced and accuse her of exploiting the very notoriety that once made her infamous.
Casey’s first live Q&A session on TikTok went viral for all the wrong reasons. She spoke about the struggles she’s faced since the trial and described her hopes for a brighter future. While some viewers applauded her openness, many saw the move as opportunistic rather than heartfelt.
One thing’s for sure, though. With millions tuning in, her ability to command attention, whether positive or negative, hasn’t waned one bit. The session also reignited heated debates about her past, with some defending her and others doubling down on their criticisms, proving how divisive her story remains.
Her social media appearances have sparked a fierce divide online. Hashtags like #CancelCasey reflect widespread dissent, while a surprising number of fans argue that it’s time to give Casey a second chance.
Twitter (now X) has become a battleground for opinions, with one user commenting, "We may be divided politically, but we can all agree, go f*** yourself, Casey Anthony." Meanwhile, posts defending her attempt at rebuilding her life have garnered substantial engagement too.
Casey recently guest-starred on a resilience-focused podcast, sidestepping conversations about Caylee’s death while zeroing in on personal injustice and societal misjudgment. The appearance sent the internet into another frenzy, with skeptics questioning the podcast’s motives and endorsers praising Casey’s efforts to rebrand herself.
Still, her refusal to discuss her daughter directly did little to win over the skeptics. Many viewed this as a calculated move, reigniting debates over her intentions and authenticity. While some applauded her bravery to face the public, others saw it as an attempt to further shift narratives in her favor.
Whether you love her or hate her, Casey Anthony’s presence in 2025 is unavoidable. Her TikTok videos rake in millions of views, her Substack is gaining subscribers, and her name continues to drive headlines. For better or worse, she’s become a master at shaping conversations, even if those conversations consistently court controversy.
Her ability to dominate attention, even after such a dark past, says a lot about how true crime and social media intertwine in our collective psyche. Whether her rebrand succeeds or fails is to be seen, but one thing is certain—we haven’t heard the last of Casey Anthony.
