James Kennedy, a star of the reality TV show 'Vanderpump Rules,' was arrested on December 10 on suspicion of misdemeanor domestic violence in Burbank, California. Police responded to a call around 11:30 p.m. after a witness reported seeing Kennedy arguing with a woman and allegedly grabbing her. He was booked and later released after posting a $20,000 bail. This is not the first time Kennedy has faced such allegations; months earlier, his ex-fiancée, Rachel Leviss, publicly accused him of 'violent outbursts' and verbal abuse. Kennedy's former girlfriend, Kristen Doute, reacted to the news of his arrest with a cryptic message, saying 'Finally.'
