James Kennedy‘s girlfriend, Ally Lewber, addressed his domestic violence arrest for the first time.
“Thank you to everyone who has reached out with love and support and for checking in on me,” the Los Angeles-based astrologer, 28, wrote on her Instagram Story Saturday.
“I’m OK and taking the time I need right now. I deeply appreciate all the kindness and respect for my privacy during this time.”

14 On Tuesday, the “Vanderpump Rules” alum allegedly “caused a scene” and exhibited “erratic” behavior at Kathy Hilton’s holiday party hours before his arrest, a source told Us Weekly.
“His guy friend was chasing him from Kathy’s basement all the way throughout Kathy’s backyard, and James looked mad while running away,” the insider claimed.
A Page Six eyewitness shared a similar account and said Kennedy, 32, “sped across the carpet like he was trying to avoid everyone.”
“The vibes were weird,” they added.

14 Furthermore, Bachelor Nation star Nick Viall recalled witnessing the DJ “barking orders” at his friend while at the party during his “Viall Files” podcast Thursday.
“I was like, 10 minutes earlier, I met this guy who he introduced as his best friend and then 10 minutes later, he was barking orders [at him],” he claimed.
Hours after the party, Kennedy was arrested when Burbank police were called to a residence around 11:30 p.m.

14 According to TMZ, an eyewitness told responding officers that they saw the reality star allegedly grab Lewber while they were arguing.
The outlet later reported he allegedly lifted the content creator and threw her on the ground but said officers did not notice any physical injuries on Lewber.
After being booked, Kennedy was released on $20,000 bail.
Kennedy’s lawyers, Scott Leemon and Leonard Levine, told Page Six at the time that they were “in the process of conducting” their own “investigation into the allegations levied by the Burbank Police Department against James.”

14 They added, “We understand that there were no injuries and we are hoping that after careful review, the city attorney’s office will decide not to file formal charges.”
Lewber was all smiles at a Windsor influencer event she co-hosted Wednesday evening.
On Friday, Page Six learned she has been telling friends she’s “doing OK.”
“She’s definitely safe and not in danger with James,” our source added.

14 Two of Kennedy’s exes have spoken out following his arrest.
His former “VPR” co-star and ex-girlfriend Kristen Doute shared a cryptic message on her Instagram Story Thursday, writing, “Finally,” alongside an article about his arrest.
Lawyers for Raquel Leviss, who was briefly engaged to Kennedy in 2021, told Us Weekly that his arrest was “not surprising.”

14 “Rachel’s [revenge porn] lawsuit describes, in significant detail, Mr. Kennedy’s long history of erratic, violent behavior and substance abuse,” attorneys Mark Geragos and Bryan Freedman added.
Earlier this year, Leviss, 30, sued her former “VPR” co-stars Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix for revenge porn after she was caught having an affair with Sandoval.
In her lawsuit, she claimed Kennedy was “prone to violent outbursts and grappling with long-standing substance abuse issues and emotional dysregulation.”
