‘Home Improvement’ Star Zachery Ty Bryan Arrested for Sixth Time in 5 Years

Zachery Ty Bryan has been arrested for the sixth time in five years.

THE Home Improvement A former student, 44, was taken into custody in Eugene, Oregon, on Saturday, November 29, for allegedly violating his probation from his previous domestic violence conviction, according to jail records.

Bryan is currently being held without bail at the Lane County Jail. He is scheduled to be released Wednesday, Dec. 3, records show.

The actor’s fiancée, Johnnie Faye Cartwright, was also arrested and incarcerated in the same prison. She faces five charges, including one count of driving under the influence, three counts of reckless endangerment and one count of attempted first-degree assault, according to jail records. (Cartwright remains in custody as of Sunday, November 30.)

It is unclear whether Bryan or Cartwright have legal representation to comment on their behalf.

Bryan’s most recent arrest occurred in January. At the time, the actor was facing second-degree domestic violence charges from police in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

In a police report obtained by PEOPLE, the arresting officer said a woman involved in the incident “stated she was assaulted” by Bryan and that the two “lived together and had children in common.”

The woman told the officer that Bryan “choked her and punched her in the face multiple times” and that there were “others” involved who were “inside the home during the incident.”

The woman he allegedly strangled was Cartwright, with whom he shares three children, daughter Kennedy and twins Parker and Sequoia.

Previously, in 2024, Bryan was arrested twice for drunk driving – the first in February and the second in October.

A year earlier, Bryan was charged with fourth-degree assault, third-degree theft and misdemeanor harassment.

He pleaded guilty to felony fourth-degree assault, constituting domestic violence, Assistant Lane County Prosecutor Chris Parosa told PEOPLE at the time. Bryan was sentenced to seven days in jail.

Parosa said Bryan’s second count was dismissed as being part of a “negotiated resolution.” Instead of being sentenced to 19 to 20 months in prison, he received a “downward departure to 36 months of supervised probation, 7 days in jail, standard domestic violence conditions, no contact with victim without approval of probation officer,” the prosecutor explained.

Bryan’s probation sentence does not expire until October 2026, local media outlet KEZI reported.

In 2020, Bryan was arrested for allegedly strangling his then-girlfriend at a home in Oregon. He pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor domestic violence charges and was sentenced to 36 months of probation.

Cartwright showed her support for Bryan in 2023, saying she would “always want what’s best for the father of my children.”

“Trauma can bring struggle in many forms. It is a horrible situation that will be twisted in so many ways. I have learned firsthand that the truth will never match what has been said,” she continued in a statement to Us every week. “I ask everyone to respect our privacy for the sake of the children and our families so that the healing process can begin.”
