'Tiger King' star Masha Diduk -- who played Jeff Lowe's hot nanny in the show -- was reportedly arrested for stealing an expensive candelabra out of a Las Vegas nightclub!

According to a police report from the incident, Masha was inside the Wynn Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas when authorities witnessed a woman jacking a candelabra from a private dining room in a nightclub on the property. The incident happened back in July and is only coming to light several months later.

Apparently, security cameras inside the hotel captured the nanny/model leaving the property and wearing the candelabra on her forearm as an accessory. As you can imagine, there are TONS of cameras throughout every nightclub and section of the casino -- and the authorities were able to match up the missing property to the piece sitting on her arm while she exited the area.

According to one report, security was able to obtain the name on a ticket used at the casino's valet station -- and match the license plate to the owner of the vehicle. Unfortunately, the 'Tiger King' star was also posted from the same night in the area, and authorities were able to line up the images with the security camera from the incident. If you look closely at an Instagram post from the same night, you can see she is posing with one of the club's signature drinks.

Masha Diduk was detained by Wynn security and eventually arrested for grand larceny.

It should be noted, considering the model/nanny actually wore the item out of the club on her forearm, makes it seem like it might have been one of those things that have happened to all of us after a night in Las Vegas. In other words, it's possible this whole thing gets dropped if the club got back their property, and cooler heads prevailed.

If you are a fan of the show, Diduk stunned 'Tiger King' fans after she was introduced as a nanny for Jeff Lowe and his wife, Lauren. According to the storyline, the couple met Masha in Vegas a while back, while she working as a model. Of course, fans believed the nanny job was only a publicity stunt for the show -- but the crew says it's all legit. Back in April, the couple opened up about hiring the model as a nanny, saying they met her 4 years ago in Las Vegas.

At the time, Masha's agreement was to work part-time as the couple's babysitter, mostly on weekends, at the Oklahoma tiger zoo. Masha claimed work dried up in Vegas due to the pandemic and working for Jeff and Lauren was a good opportunity at the time, especially since it involved the TV show. Interestingly, she defended Jeff Lowe, claiming he never mistreated the animals while she worked for him.

Based on the model's smoking hot Instagram, it appears she is back to the modeling business, and hopefully, she's got a really good lawyer in Las Vegas.
