Maurice Scott, a reality TV star best known for his role in 'Love and Marriage: Huntsville' was arrested for driving under the influence, marking the third time a cast member has been arrested this year.
The 45-year-old was arrested on Saturday, May 25 and taken into custody into the Madison County Jail just after 12 p.m. He was released on a $5000 bond early in the morning on Sunday, May 26, 2024.
A public statement has not been made about Scott's arrest by his lawyer or his spouse, Kimmy Grant-Scott, who has starred in the reality show since 2019.
Scott's arrest comes after his LAMH castmates, Destiny Payton and Martell Holt, were also detained in recent months.
Payton was arrested in October after she willingly surrendered for putting a utility bill in her ex-husband's name without him knowing by forging his signature.
