“Thank you to everyone who has reached out with love and support and checking in on me,” Lewber, 28, wrote via Instagram Story on Saturday, December 14. “I’m fine and taking the time I need on this of time I really appreciate all the kindness and respect for my privacy during this time.”

Us Weekly it was confirmed on Thursday, December 12, that the police send them after them received a call about an argument between a man and a woman. Authorities saw Kennedy, 32, allegedly grabbing a woman on Tuesday, December 10. Officers who responded to the scene did not see any visible injuries and he was released on a $20,000 bond.

We understand that there were no injuries and we hope that after a careful review, the city’s attorneys will decide not to file formal charges. “

Lewber previously disowned his Bravo co-stars Teddy Mellencamp a Judge Tamra‘ claims they are he saw Kennedy as physically aggressive towards Lewber. Scheana Shay he revamped the allegations after inviting Lewber on a February episode of his “Scheananigans” podcast.

“I think it was two years ago now (after the MTV Movie and TV Awards). And (Tamra) said they were going to an after-party at TomTom. And during that car journey there was a fight between two people in the car, which made her and Teddi have to get out of the car,” explained Shay, 38. “They had to separate the two individuals in the a car And (they) further suggested that James was involved, and now rumors are flying around that Teddi may have hinted at a conflict between you and James.”

Lewber shut down assumptions that Kennedy “physically hurt” or “assaulted” her.

“That’s crazy to me that it’s the most asked question (to me). That makes me very sad, because no, I’m good. That never happened. There was no physical disturbance,” she told Shay at the time. “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’ll say on that.”

Lewber continued: “We’re good. We are happy. He works on himself. I know in the past he had anger issues. So I get it. But I want people to know that I’m good and I’m safe and I love him.”

According to Lewber, Kennedy was drinking during the 2022 disagreement. (Kennedy was confirmed on season 11 of Vanderpump Rules that he is currently sober past issues with substance misuse.)

“He was still drinking. Yes, we were all drunk in the back of that car. Yes, that’s true,’ explained Lewber. “But nothing happened physically. I mean, we went to TomTom. We showed up at TomTom and had fun. It was, like, a good night. I don’t think that was the moment or, like, the night when we were like, ‘Okay, drinking is not great.'”

Lewber was grateful when Kennedy chose to cut alcohol out of his lifeadding, “We would fight when we drank. We will drink and pick (fight). When you drink that much and in those environments, it’s not great. That’s not who we really are. That’s an example of why he shouldn’t drink.”

Later in the episode, Shay acknowledged that Kennedy’s ex-girlfriends Rachel “Raquel” Leviss a Kristen Doute has prompted speculation that Kennedy was previously may have been physically abusive towards them during their relationship. Afterwards Shay wanted to give Lewber a “safe space” to talk about anything on her mind.

“Thank you. Because I didn’t know,” Lewber replied. “I’m like, do I go on my Instagram and say, ‘I’m good, guys?’ Like, I don’t know how to navigate these kinds of things. And this is something that is very serious. And I appreciate everyone who cares about me. But I want everyone to know I’m good.”

Kennedy there were good and bad things in between of multiple seasons of Vanderpump Rules. After making her first appearance in season 3, Kennedy’s romance with Doute, 41, took a turn when Kennedy snuck into Scheana’s wedding to Mike Shay in 2014. In another season, Kennedy spat on Doute’s door. (Doute, for her part, responded to Kennedy’s arrest by writing “Finally” via her Instagram Story.)

In a January episode of her podcast “Rachel Goes Rogue”, Leviss remember filming a scene for season 10 oh Vanderpump Rules where she began hyperventilating when discussing their split which suggested she had left out a lot of information.

“I was telling them the story about my intention to break up with James and how I intended to leave the ring box on the counter when he came back from Europe,” she recalled. “All my stuff was going to be gone, and I felt like that would be the safest way for me to break up with him. I didn’t go into details about why we broke up and why I couldn’t be with him anymore.”
