On Saturday, Garrett Hedlund was arrested for public intoxication in Franklin, Tennessee.

TMZ was the first to report the arrest, which took place on Saturday night. He is facing a misdemeanor arrest with a bond placed at $2,100. As of Sunday morning, Hedlund had yet to post bond.

This is not the only legal trouble that Hedlund is facing. In January 2020, he was arrested for alleged drunk driving. Numerous sources reported that Hedlund was so drunk that he passed out behind the wheel and struck a car carrying a woman and her three children.

That night, he was arrested with a DUI and pled no contest to a DUI charge in February 2020. He was placed on three years probation, so it's possible that he will face additional legal charges as a result of this recent arrest.

In November 2021, Roberts had attended Paris Hilton’s wedding without Hedlund. Instead, she was seen with another man who was later identified as Britney Spears' longtime supervisor Cade Hudson.

At this time, it does not seem that the two are dating. It has been reported that Roberts and Hudson are best friends and have known each other for many years.

Roberts and Hedlund had first started dating in 2019, shortly after the actress ended her engagement to her on-again, off-again fiancé, Evan Peters.

In December 2020, Roberts and Hedlund welcomed their first child together and introduced him to their Instagram followers on January 13, 2021.

“Thank you 2020 for getting one thing right,” Roberts wrote at the time. “Our bright light Rhodes Robert Hedlund.”

Even though Emma Roberts and Garrett Hedlund have called it quits, Hedlund seemed to be moving on by starting his own Instagram account.

His first and currently only photo is a black-and-white shot of him sitting on a chair with an acoustic guitar in his lap. An open notebook sits on a stool beside him while he has his feet propped up on a chair.

"Guess who finally joined Instagram ?," he captioned the snap.

"Been cookin’ somethin’ up in the studio for the past couple of months, and now I finally get to share it with the world: my first single as a solo artist, 'The Road,' comes out this Friday, 01/21!" he wrote.

"Got a lot more stuff coming out soon, and I can’t wait to share it all with you," he added. Until then, help me out and show 'The Road' some love by presaving it!"

Fans were excited to see Hedlund travel from the acting scene to the record studio.

“Pre-saved!" one fan wrote. "Welcome to IG, cant wait to hear your new material! You have a wonderful voice and I for one am glad that you decided to continue your journey as a musician. Wishing you the best in your upcoming project!”

“Hope you’re well," another fan commented. "I have loved your voice ever since I heard it in the movie, Country Strong, please record an album! Your gift is far too precious to only make an appearance once!”

"I’m so happy about this!" another wrote. "I’ve downloaded everything you’ve ever recorded, and pre-ordered the new song on iTunes & can’t wait to hear it! You’re such a talented singer & I’m so excited for your new journey! Congratulations Garrett!”

It remains to be seen how his new legal trouble will hamper his new music career.
