 Blake Jenner was arrested on a DUI charge in California

It seems Blake Jenner needs to bring his life back on track.

The former Glee actor was recently arrested and charged with DUI.

What was his offense?

Well, the actor apparently failed to stop at a red light last Saturday, which caused the attention of police in Burbank, California.

When a safety check was conducted, police found that the American Animals actor was driving above the legal blood alcohol content limit at 11;30 p.m.

According to the Burbank police, Jenner was released on the same day. However, he will have to appear in court at any given time.

Well, this is not the first time, the 29-year-old actor has faced a legal problem.

Back in 2019, his ex-wife Melissa Benoist released an emotional video on Instagram where she claimed that she was a survivor of domestic violence.

Melissa did not mention Jenner’s name anywhere on the video but it clearly indicated that she was referring to her ex-husband.

The couple was married for 2 years and it was later discovered that the cause for their divorce was the domestic violence faced by Benoist.

A later year in 2020, The Edge of Seventeen actor, without mentioning Melissa’s name posted a statement on his Instagram.

In the statement, he confirmed the allegation put against him by his former wife Melissa.

Addressing the incident in a lengthy statement, the actor apologized to his former spouse.

He wrote:

”I am sorry.”

“There are many things that I wish I could have done differently; and while I wish it did not take the pain that was suffered throughout the course of our relationship, I will never regress to making the same mistakes ever again,” 

The actor continued:

“I will never stop doing the work necessary to better myself in all areas of my life. I wish you and your family nothing but good health, joy and love.”

While the actor did not mention anyone, everybody was quite sure it was purely dedicated to Melissa.
