James Kennedy, known for his role on “Vanderpump Rules,” was arrested this week on suspicion of misdemeanor domestic violence, as reported by police. The 32-year-old DJ, whose full name is James Kennedy Georgiou, was taken into custody on Tuesday night in Burbank, Los Angeles County, after officers responded to reports of a dispute at a residential location around 11:30 p.m.
Authorities concluded that the incident was domestic in nature, which resulted in Kennedy’s arrest. He has since been booked on suspicion of misdemeanor domestic violence and released on bail. The Burbank City Attorney’s office is currently reviewing the situation for potential formal charges.
Kennedy is currently in a relationship with Ally Lewber, who also appears on the reality show. Their attendance at a Christmas party hosted by “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Kathy Hilton on the same evening of the incident has been noted on social media.
There has been no immediate comment from Kennedy’s representatives regarding this matter.
In related news, it was announced last month that “Vanderpump Rules” will return for its 12th season, featuring a new cast and saying goodbye to some familiar faces, including Kennedy. This follows an eventful 10th season, primarily marked by the “Scandoval” scandal, which involved cast member Tom Sandoval’s infidelity towards his long-term girlfriend, Ariana Madix, with their friend Raquel Leviss.
While the recent developments in Kennedy’s personal life are concerning, it’s essential to remember that this could serve as a turning point for him. The upcoming season of “Vanderpump Rules” may offer new opportunities for growth and redemption, allowing him to reflect on his actions and possibly use his platform for positive change.
