James Kennedy is in trouble with the law.
According to TMZ, the Vanderpump Rules alum was arrested Thursday night on misdemeanor domestic violence charges.
We’re still gathering details, but law enforcement insiders tell the above celebrity gossip outlet that Burbank, California police were dispatched after receiving a call about an argument between a man and a woman at a home in the area. Was.
A witness reportedly saw Kennedy arguing with a woman and allegedly grabbing her.
OhHuh?
TMZ also noted that officers responding to the scene did not notice any injuries on the victim, while Kennedy has been released after posting $20,000 bail.
For those wondering, the longtime Bravo personality and his girlfriend, Ellie Leuber, were in attendance at Kathy Hilton’s Christmas party on the evening of her arrest.
However, to emphasize, it has not been confirmed if she is the woman involved in the alleged incident.
The lovers began dating in 2022, with Levbar also joining as a cast member on Vanderpump Rules at the time.
Earlier this year, Leuber addressed speculation that Kennedy was physically abusive during their relationship, most notably inside a vehicle after the MTV Movie Awards two years ago.
“That never happened. There was no physical altercation,” Leuber told Scheana Shay on her podcast in February.
“Yes, we were in the car together. I thought we were having fun. We were having fun. But then James and I got into an argument, but there was no physical attack.
“I wasn’t bleeding, and they didn’t have to get out of the car and separate us. So that didn’t happen. That’s all I will say on that.”
Leuber clarified in this interview that Kennedy never “physically hurt” or “attacked” him.
The Burbank City Attorney’s Office is currently reviewing the case for possible charges.
Neither Kennedy nor Luber have yet commented on the arrest.
Elsewhere, but relatedly, we learned last week that Kennedy will not be returning to Vanderpump Rules as the series will be rebooted with a new cast next year.
