Actress Kim Delaney has found herself in hot water once again, this time facing felony assault charges. The incident took place at her residence in Los Angeles, where deputies responded to a domestic disturbance involving Delaney and her partner, James Morgan. Following an investigation, Delaney was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, while Morgan was arrested for battery.
Delaney was taken into custody at the Marina del Rey Sheriff’s Station and charged with assault likely to produce gross bodily injury. Meanwhile, Morgan posted bail on a $20,000 bond. Both are scheduled to appear in court on April 1.
The “NYPD Blue” star has had a successful acting career, appearing in various television shows such as “The O.C,” “Army Wives,” “All My Children,” and “Chicago Fire.” However, this recent incident has put a stain on her reputation.
According to TMZ, the altercation between Delaney and Morgan escalated into a physical confrontation, prompting paramedics to check for injuries at the scene. Delaney’s representatives have not yet commented on the situation.
Interestingly, just two weeks prior to the incident, Delaney shared a photo on Instagram showing her affection for Morgan, captioned “Pure love.” The couple also recently celebrated their second wedding anniversary in October, with Delaney expressing her love and appreciation for her husband on social media.
This isn’t the first time Delaney has faced legal troubles. In 2002, she was arrested for drunk driving in Malibu, California, leading to a two-year probation sentence. The following year, Delaney entered rehab to address her struggles with alcoholism.
Despite her past challenges, Delaney has continued to pursue her acting career and maintain a public presence. This recent incident serves as a reminder of the complexities of fame and the personal struggles that can accompany it.
